Compactly Supported Frame Wavelets and Their Applications in Convolutional Neural Networks
Authors: Rick John
Published: August 2023

The emergence of compactly supported frame wavelets has brought about a revolutionary shift in the realm of signal processing and image analysis. These mathematical structures possess the remarkable ability to perform localized analysis within finite intervals, rendering them indispensable tools for unravelling intricate details within complex signals and images. Their utility spans a wide array of applications, including denoising, compression, and feature extraction. Unlike conventional wavelets with unbounded support, compactly supported frame wavelets offer an efficient approach to capturing localized information, a pivotal factor in comprehending intricate visual content. This paper delves into the theory, properties, and advantages inherent in compactly supported frame wavelets, shedding light on their versatility across diverse signal types and their capacity for perfect reconstruction. By seamlessly integrating these wavelets with Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), an innovative dimension is introduced to image analysis, capitalizing on the strengths of both methodologies. The symbiotic relationship between compactly supported frame wavelets and CNNs amplifies the network's prowess in image analysis through the fusion of spatial and frequency-based analyses. A spectrum of applications stemming from this fusion, including image classification, object detection, and image denoising, are comprehensively explored, showcasing tangible enhancements in accuracy and interpretability. Ultimately, the harmonious amalgamation of these mathematical constructs with deep learning techniques holds the potential to reshape the landscape of image analysis and signal processing. This, in turn, promises to untangle complex visual content, ushering in an era of enriched image comprehension.
How integrated rare disease care is organised and delivered in general practice in OECD countries: A Scoping Review Protocol
Authors: Vidic Nada , Taylor Natalie , ---X  , Harris-Roxas Ben
Published: August 2023

Objective: To assess the extent to which the literature clarifies key characteristics, components or factors related to feasible and sustainable integrated rare disease care delivery. Along the continuum of care, in general practice settings in Organisations for Economic Cooperation Development (OECD) countries. Introduction: “Rare” by definition, but collectively common, rare diseases have a 3.5-5.9% global prevalence. Internationally, navigating complex health systems is echoed as a challenge, regardless of diagnosis. General practice is best situated to lead integrated rare disease care. Yet, little is known about how integrated rare disease care is currently organised and delivered. Nor how it’s provision can be feasibly achieved and sustained.Inclusion Criteria: Contemporary literature discussing models of integrated rare disease care delivery relating to all aspects of care, in the general practice setting in OEDC countries will be included. Literature discussing acute, episodic care or chronic disease management without rarity will be excluded.Methods: Academic literature, with an empirical component, from CINAHL, PubMed, EMBASE and Scopus will be sought. Grey literature will be sought. Inclusion criteria refinement via Covidence and EndNote, will be followed by the application of a pre-developed data extraction instrument and presented in narrative synthesis, tables and/or diagrams.
The Multi-fold Theory - Draft Raw Compendium of Research Papers (till August, 2023)
Authors: Maes Stephane
Published: August 2023

This book presents a compilation of the research papers published as papers, preprints or early result web pages, covering the multi-fold theory. It is an early draft of future books that compiles all research papers published on or before August 12, 2023, preprints, and web publications, as well as associated web comments, updates, errata and discussions of related topics. In a multi-fold universe, gravity emerges from Entanglement through the multi-fold mechanisms. As a result, gravity-like effects appear in between entangled particles, whether they be real or virtual. Long range, massless gravity results from entanglement of massless virtual particles. Entanglement of massive virtual particles leads to massive gravity contributions at very smalls scales. Multi-folds mechanisms also result into a spacetime that is discrete, with a random walk fractal structure, and non-commutative geometry that is Lorentz invariant and where spacetime nodes, and particles can be modeled with microscopic black holes. All these recover General relativity at large scales and semi-classical model remain valid till smaller scale than usually expected. Gravity can therefore be added to the Standard Model; it is the SMG, the standard model with gravity effect non-negligible at its scales.. This can contribute to resolving several open issues with the Standard Model without new Physics other than gravity. These considerations hint at an even stronger relationship between gravity and the Standard Model.This is teh introduction file
Dynamics of Postnatal Depressive Symptoms in Early Parenthood
Authors: Skjerdingstad Nora , Speyer Lydia Gabriela , Isvoranu Adela-Maria , Moe Vibeke , Fredriksen Eivor
Published: August 2023

Background: New mothers and fathers are at risk of developing postnatal depressive problems. To understand how postnatal depressive symptoms unfold over time, analyses at the within-person level are necessary. Inspecting postnatal depressive problems at the symptom level provides a novel perspective, ultimately offering insight into which symptoms contribute to the elevation of other symptoms over time. Methods: Panel graphical autoregressive models were applied to analyze the within-person temporal and contemporaneous relations between depressive symptoms across the postnatal period in new mothers and fathers (at T1; Nmothers = 869, Nfathers = 579). Depressive symptoms were repeatedly assessed at 6-, 12-, and 18-months postpartum, using the Edinburgh postnatal depression scale. Results: The results revealed that for mothers, sadness was a key symptom predicting symptom increases in multiple other depressive symptoms over time as well as an autoregressive effect, with anxiousness predicting somewhat fewer symptom changes. For fathers, the most central symptom was being anxious, while self-blame and being overwhelmed had strong self-maintaining roles in the fathers’ symptomatology, indicating that these could be key features in fathers experiencing postnatal depressive problems. The symptoms that mothers and fathers experience simultaneously (within time) displayed a more similar symptom pattern.Conclusions: This study suggests that across the postnatal period, depressive symptoms in mothers and fathers contribute differently to the alleviation of depressive problems, highlighting sad mood as a key feature in maternal symptomatology and anxiousness components in paternal symptomatology.

Cumulative Risk and Adolescent Emotional Distress: A Longitudinal Moderated Mediation Analysis Focusing on Perceived Stress and Social Support
Authors: Deniz Emre , Humphrey Neil , Demkowicz Ola , Lereya Suzet Tanya , Deighton Jessica
Published: August 2023

This study provides insights into the roles played by perceived stress and social support in the relationship between cumulative risk exposure and adolescent emotional distress. Pre-registered longitudinal moderated mediation analyses were used to test hypotheses relating to the association between cumulative risk exposure and later emotional distress; the mediating role of perceived stress in the relationship between cumulative risk exposure and later emotional distress; and, the moderating effects of peer and family adult support on the relationship between cumulative risk exposure and later perceived stress, among N = 19,159 adolescents over three annual waves (at ages 11/12, 12/13, 13/14). Analyses revealed that cumulative risk exposure significantly predicted later adolescent emotional distress. This relationship was partially mediated by perceived stress. Both peer and family adult support significantly moderated the impact of cumulative risk exposure on later perceived stress (i.e., adolescents reporting higher levels of support perceived significantly lower levels of stress resulting from cumulative risk exposure compared to those reporting lower levels of support). These findings provide critical empirical evidence of the roles played by perceived stress and social support in the relationship between cumulative risk exposure and adolescent emotional distress, with consequent implications for intervention.

The Theory of Planned Behavior and Alcohol Protective Behavioral Strategies: A prospective study examining the role of habit and gender invariance
Authors: Fernández-Calderón Fermín , Lozano-Rojas Oscar , García Manuel Sánchez
Published: August 2023

Objectives: Alcohol Protective Behavioral Strategies (PBS) have consistently shown to be effective in reducing alcohol use and its associated consequences. We aimed to examine the explanatory value of the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) for using five PBS, studying the role of habit, and its invariance across genders. Methods: Targeted sampling was used to recruit 339 young adults in the community (female = 50.7%; mean age = 2.21[SD = 2.21]), who completed baseline and 2-month follow-up questionnaires. Results: The explained variance of the TPB ranged from 58%-68% for intention to use PBS, and 18%-50% for behavior. The inclusion of habit produced increases of 17%-26% in explained variance in intention, while explained variance in behavior remained similar. Habit was the strongest predictor of intention to use PBS, followed by attitude. With the exception of one behavior (drinking slowly), habits did not moderate the intention-behavior relationship, and the explanatory value of the TPB was invariant across genders. Conclusions: Our findings support the utility of the TPB as an explanatory model of alcohol PBS, along with the need to include habits within the framework of dual-process models. Interventions aimed at promoting alcohol PBS could be optimized by targeting attitudes towards PBS and habits.
On the importance of considering concurrent effects in random-intercept cross-lagged panel modelling: Example analysis of bullying and internalising problems
Authors: Speyer Lydia Gabriela , Zhu Xinxin , Yang Yi , Ribeaud Denis , Eisner Manuel
Published: August 2023

Random intercept cross-lagged panel models (RI-CLPMs) are increasingly used to investigate research questions focusing on how one variable at one time point affects another variable at the subsequent time point. Due to the implied temporal sequence of events in such research designs, interpretations of RI-CLPMs primarily focus on longitudinal cross-lagged paths while disregarding concurrent associations and modelling these only as residual covariances. However, this may cause biased cross-lagged effects. This may be especially so when data collected at the same time-point refers to different reference time-frames, creating a temporal sequence of events for constructs measured concurrently. To examine this issue, we conducted a series of empirical analyses in which the impact of modelling or not modelling of directional within-time point associations may impact inferences drawn from RI-CLPMs using data from the longitudinal z-proso study. Results highlight that not considering directional concurrent effects may lead to biased cross-lagged effects. Thus, it is essential to carefully consider potential directional concurrent effects when choosing models to analyse directional associations between variables over time. If temporal sequences of concurrent effects cannot be clearly established, testing multiple models and drawing conclusions based on the robustness of effects across all models is recommended.

Inscription of Beauty in Female's Body and Restriction of Self in Item Dances of Nepali Movies
Authors: Bista Asmita
Published: August 2023

In Nepali movies, the female characters construct the image of sensual seductresses who assiduously try to entrap the males through their captivating dance moves. These women appear as enchantresses because they are regulated by the social norms that constrain them to the role of an entertainer. Not only that, since these female characters are bound to entertain the males and to satisfy their carnal desire by offering their body, they put their effort to meet the so-called beauty standard designed by the society. In this ambience, this paper critically examines the reason for creating the image of female’s beauty in the item dances of Nepali films. Equally, the paper analyzes the process of creating an image of the female as a beautiful object. To address these objectives, the concept of ‘disciplining the body’ of Judith Butler, Judith Lorber and Susan Bordo has been used. These critics view that beauty is inscribed on the body through cultural norms.  Bordo discusses about the role played by the socializing agencies in disciplining the people’s gender identity as she examines that the body becomes its gender through a series of acts, which are renewed, revised and consolidated through time.  In Butler’s perception, social norms bind the individual to acceptable standards of behavior. The paper concludes that since the female performers of these item dances are regulated by the system of beauty that is designed to privilege the male’s desire, they exhibit their body as a beautiful product to the males.
Presentation of Marginality from the Indigenous Community in Rajan Mukarung’s Hetchhakupa
Authors: Rai Bidur
Published: August 2023

This article analyzes how Rajan Mukarung’s novel Hetchhakuppa represents the indigenous people as marginalized indigenous characters from the critical perspective of subaltern studies as furthered in postcolonial India to rewrite the social history of the post-independence period. The major theorists, beginning with Ranjit Guha to Gayatri Chakravarti Spivak, state that the people at the bottom tend to get misrepresented and termed inaccessible for the people at the top. However, this study contends that J. Magio aids in our comprehension of the notion that individuals express their voice through artistic creations. Mukarung’s Hetchhakuppa focuses on the cultural and indigenous identity of the characters, lending a voice to their suffering and marginalization. It implies that indigenous but marginal people are silenced due to the context of socio-political structure, so their voices are unheard and ignored. Thus, this paper concludes that the contemporary Nepali fiction Hetchhakuppa depicts the unheard characters.
Revisiting Asian American Poetics: A Review of Heterogeneity and a Case of Russell Leong
Authors: Wu Shang
Published: August 2023

The term Asian America was first coined in the late 1960s. Although initially closely associated with political subversiveness and establishing a collective pan-Asian ethnic identity, the name has been continuously reinventing itself to be more diverse and elastic with the changing relationship between the United States and Asian countries and the arrival of new groups of Asian immigrants. Along the way, heterogeneity has always been an undeniable mark on the rubric of Asian America. This article revisits the expanding literary field of Asian American poetry, articulating a heterogeneous and indeterminate poetics from the movement era to the new century of globalization. It takes several poems of Russell Leong as a case study and foregrounds, through the conception tool of cultural translation, his in-betweenness, and the mixture of ethnic experiences and transnational concerns.
URBANIZATION PROCESSES: WAYS TO SOLVE REGIONAL TRANSPORT PROBLEMS
Authors: Khorosha Oksana , Subin-Kozhevnikova Alona , Danylchuk Alina
Published: August 2023

The increase in the number of people living in cities leads to an increase in the number of transport and the emergence of transport problems, such as traffic jams, air pollution and the lack of a sufficient number of parking spaces. To effectively manage urbanization processes, sustainable and innovative approaches to urban planning, infrastructure construction, access to housing, education and health care need to be developed. Creating an efficient system of public transport, green zones, stimulating sustainable consumption and energy efficiency are important steps towards sustainable urban development.Increasing the flow of vehicles, in the process of urbanization, leads to a decrease in the quality of life for residents of settlements and makes our cities less attractive to tourists. Such problems are especially threatening for cities with limited territory or with historical buildings, where narrow streets and the lack of a sufficient number of car parks complicate the situation. However, proper planning and management can help cities become more viable and comfortable to live in, ensuring a high quality of life for residents.So, to implement rational methods of dealing with transport problems of our time at the regional level, it is worth turning to successful examples of world society.
THE PROCESS OF REFORMING THE GERMAN COAL INDUSTRY
Authors: Lubenska Natalia , Petry Rolf , Yermakov Viktor , Diatel Oleksandr
Published: August 2023

Germany has come a long way, from the collapse of the economy after the Second World War, the gradual reconstruction, the energy crisis in the 60s of the last century, the abandonment of subsidized mines and the cessation of coal production in 2018 to the complete transformation into the innovation hub of Germany.Structural changes in the German mining industry refers to the change of the German mining industry from the production of coal and ore to a more diverse economic structure. The structural changes in the mining industry are the result of moving away from fossil fuels and increasing demand for renewable energy sources and clean energy production.The closure of the mines had a significant social and economic impact, especially on the Ruhr and Saar regions. Many miners lost their jobs, and the closure also affected the subcontracting industry and the region’s economy. However, structural changes have also included measures to help affected workers and regions, including retraining and upskilling programs, as well as infrastructure investment and increased use of renewable energy sources.The closure of the mines marked an important step in Germany’s restructuring and was part of Germany’s overall plan to transition to renewable energy and clean energy production. The closure of the mines took place in several stages, which were part of a comprehensive concept of phasing out hard coal mining in Germany.Overall, the closure of the German mines was a long and painful process that caused many problems. At the same time, it was a necessary step in the process of structural changes in Germany and an important contribution to the reduction of CO2 emissions and climate protection. These problems were solved by creating special programs and projects that helped former miners find new jobs and supported their transition to new employment opportunities.After the victory, we must rebuild Ukraine, and the acquired experience of international partners must be useful for the restoration of the destroyed or damaged infrastructure and territories of Ukraine as a whole. That is why, despite very difficult times for Ukraine, it is necessary to think about the future already today.

THEORETICAL CALCULATION OF REINFORCED FOUNDATIONS TAKING INTO ACCOUNT ANISOTROPY OF SOILS
Authors: Korchevskiy Bogdan , Kolesnyk Andryi
Published: August 2023

The introduction of horizontal reinforcing elements into the soil, which have much higher deformation rates in the longitudinaldirection, turns it into an anisotropic medium. That is, an environment in which the strength characteristics in the vertical andhorizontal directions are significantly different.This article considers the case when the reinforcing elements are laid horizontally, and their thickness is much smaller thanthe thickness of the soil layers, so it can be neglected and the characteristics of the strength and deformations of the reinforcedsoil in the horizontal direction can be taken as for unreinforced. In the vertical direction, the presence of reinforcement in the soilmass significantly changes its characteristics. This is confirmed by the obtained results of model tests.The calculation of reinforced foundations is reduced mainly to the determination of the influence of reinforcement parameterson the distribution of stresses and, accordingly, deformations in the layers of reinforced soil.The solution is based on the basic formulas of the stress state of an anisotropic half-plane loaded with a linear load. The baseis represented by a linearly deformable porous medium, the state of which is characterized by the deformation moduli Еx, Ez, thePoisson coefficients νx, νz and the shear modulus Gz.We introduce the assumption that along the entire length of the horizontal reinforcing element, the tangential stresses in thesoil retain their maximum values max  . Such stresses should be taken into account within the scope of influence of the reinforcingelement [2-3], which is included in the margin of strength.Obtained expressions of the maximum tangential and principal stresses of the reinforced soil, taking into account theanisotropic medium.The dependence of the selection of the cross-section of reinforcing elements of soil foundations on the calculated resistanceof the materials used for them is determined.Calculated dependences of the modulus of deformation of reinforced bases in the vertical direction Ez, due to the length ofthe reinforcement and the reinforcement step, were obtained.The shear modulus Gz of anisotropic reinforced soils is determined, taking into account the parameters of the reinforcement,as well as the anisotropic properties of the soil.
Expectations of the Gift: Toward a Future-Oriented Taxonomy of Transactions
Authors: Sprenger Guido , Pickles Anthony J. , Gershon Ilana , Robbins Joel , Bryant Rebecca , Strathern Marilyn
Published: August 2023

People engage in transactions because they expect to bring about certain futures. This suggests replacing Marcel Mauss's three obligations of gift exchange—giving, taking, and returning—with the notion of expectations. From this perspective, three contingencies constitute gift exchange: gifts create futures that remain indeterminate; they presuppose a social whole whose boundaries are unclear; and they visibly constitute opaque persons. Reconsidering gift exchange in these terms provides a set of analytical terms, like strong and weak expectations, moral horizons of value systems, and the opacity of personhood, that can be applied to sharing and commodity trade as well. This constitutes a dynamic and expansive theory for the analysis and comparison of case studies that understands society as a shared project of expecting the future.
Problema do racismo: um desafio para a psicanálise
Authors: Bonfim Flavia
Published: August 2023

A proposta deste ensaio é pensar o racismo por meio das formulações teóricas de Freud e Lacan. Segundo a obra freudiana, o racismo pode ser entendido a partir do narcisismo das pequenas diferenças. Todavia, Freud acrescenta a essa questão a agressividade e o ódio inerente à dimensão humana, fruto da pulsão de morte. Com Lacan, o racismo pode ser lido como um ódio ao Outro em sua forma distinta de gozar, estando em funcionamento algo do mais-de-gozar do racista. Com isso, conclui-se que, apesar de ser possível encontrar alguns conceitos nas teorias freudiana e lacaniana que contribuam para pensar o racismo, esse tema ainda é um desafio para os psicanalistas brasileiros, visto que nosso campo ainda não formulou um estudo crítico compatível com a complexidade e a gravidade desse sintoma social

O ano 2020 tem sido atravessado pela pandemia do coronavírus e, como tal, pudemos acompanhar os efeitos de sua presença em todo o mundo. Entretanto, no contexto brasileiro, é possível reconhecer uma modalidade de enfrentamento específica: a negação do coronavírus como uma realidade sustentada pelo fenômeno psicossocial da produção político-cultural da desinformação e/ou produção de informações difusas e contrárias. Diante disso, o objetivo deste trabalho é buscar nas teorias de Sigmund Freud e Jacques Lacan uma leitura possível do que pode ter impulsionado a emergência desse tipo de posicionamento diante da pandemia e sua implicação no sofrimento psíquico contemporâneo no Brasil. Para isso, contaremos com os conceitos de negação e sofrimento em Sigmund Freud, assim como os que dizem respeito às modalidades de gozo fálica e não-toda fálica em Lacan.

The article discusses the organization of the Lithuanian artillery 1700–1717. The findings are mainly based on a report concerning the funding and expenses of the artillery corps that was prepared for the Lithuanian Fiscal Tribunal of 1717 that took place in Grodno. The article examines the number of artillery weapons and the amount of ammunition that the corps was obliged to provide for the Lithu- anian army. The composition of the corps, artillery reform plans and several other issues are also discussed.
"Gotowi do zemsty...” – projekt sformowania polskiego „wolnego korpusu” w okresie kampanii francuskiej 1814 roku
Authors: Baranowski Marcin
Published: August 2023

During the campaign of 1814 the French army was supported by the „free corps”, a unit that carried out irregular operations. A proposal to form a similar unit to supplement the Polish army was presented to the chief of staff of the Great Army by Stanisław Żarski, the chef de battalion from the Duchy of Warsaw’s army. The Polish „free corps” was to include soldiers of Polish descent that were currently held in prisoner of war camps in France. The details of Żarski’s proposal combined elements characteristic of both the Polish and French military.
Sprawa ppłk. Józefa Biernackiego jako przyczynek do badań nad dwuinstancyjnością Oficerskiego Sądownictwa Honorowego w II Rzeczpospolitej Polskiej

In the Second Polish Republic the Officers’ Courts of Honor was important in shaping the attitudes of Polish army officers. Its role was focused on, among other things, the selection of judges and the processing and imposition of penalties. The court had a two-stage system, which made it possible to verify the legitimacy of an earlier judgment. The paper uses the case of Lt. Col. Józef Biernacki as an example of how the court functioned

Economic efficiency principles for architectural and space-planning design of vertical farms
Authors: Dorokhina Hanna , Zhdanova Yaryna
Published: August 2023

The paper highlights use of the economic efficiency principles group during construction and architectural planning of vertical farms. Even though vertical farming is a more efficient and sustainable approach to agro-industry than convenient farming, this method requires significant capital for building and operation. To overcome these shortcomings, the paper describes methods of implementing project solutions that can increase the economic feasibility from architectural perspective. The authors divided the principles group into three main ones: the principle of completion from without, the principle of economy and saving resources, and the principle of saving time and space.
The basis of the first principle consists of diverse techniques for increasing the system’s stability and adaptability to unpredictable external and internal changes. For this purpose, it is recommended to implement such solutions as poly-functionality of the building, its openness to the public, space-planning and structural flexibility, and dispersal of engineering networks.
The main purpose of the second principle is the overall increase in energy efficiency and in building and production sustainability. It is determined that the most appropriate techniques of this principle are: a variable approach to design process with implementation of different comparison methods for architectural solutions; quality assessment of project decisions, using functional-cost analysis, LCA, LCC, and qualimetry; sustainable methods integration for energy and production resources restoration; application of energy efficiency architecture methods.
The principle of saving time and space is fundamental for maintaining the main labor and production resources, which is a way to minimize areas, construction resources, and labor costs for construction and production. This principle is the key to a general reduction in the cost of agro-industrial products production, and therefore reducing its cost on the market. Hence, it leads to stabilization and reduction of price, and product accessibility to the consumer.
Comparison of the features of the harmonization of volume and spatial architecture of modern public and residential buildings in the historical building of cities
Authors: Popovych Dmytro
Published: August 2023

The scientific article examines the harmonization of modern residential and public buildings in a historical environment. The article defines public buildings and their classification by level of service, and how it affects harmonization in a historical context. Service classification is divided into daily, periodic and episodic levels. Problems related to the design of public and residential buildings in historical areas of cities, where it is important to find a harmonious balance between the preservation of the historical context and the inclusion of modern design, are analyzed and discussed. The importance of respecting the modern architectural style and scale of the surrounding development is emphasized, especially when it comes to public buildings of episodic service. The important features of contrasting harmonization of this level of public buildings are determined, and how they should differ from ordinary buildings. Seven basic harmonizing principles are outlined that are used to design public and residential buildings that complement their historic surroundings, including preservation of the facade fabric, repetition of dominant elements, and the method of silhouette repetition. Finally, the text gives an example of how the destructive method was used in the design of the Kunsthaus in the Austrian city of Graz. An example is also given of how London business centers are combined with historical buildings thanks to the principle of background building. After the analysis of examples of public buildings, examples of the architectural formation of modern housing in a historical environment are given. In general, the text contains an analysis of the principles of harmonization of modern buildings in the historical environment, and how this harmonization differs between residential and public buildings.
