Automatic Label Error Correction
Authors: Guo Tong
Published: April 2024

In the previous works, we verify that manual re-labeling the training data that model prediction do not equal to the manual label, improve the accuracy at dev dataset and human evaluation. But manual re-labeling requires a lot of human labor to correct the noisy data in the training dataset. We think that the noisy data is the training data that model prediction and manual label is not equal. To solve this problem, we propose the randomly re-setting method that automaticly improve the accuracy at dev dataset and human evaluation. The core idea is that, we randomly re-set all the noisy data to model prediction or the manual label. All the noisy data means the noisy data in training dataset and dev dataset. We use the highest accuracy of dev dataset in the all possible randomly re-setted dev datasets, to judge the quality of randomly resetted training datasets. The motivation of randomly re-setting is that the best dataset must be in all randomly possible datasets.

Rare event detection (RED) involves the identification and detection of
events characterized by low frequency of occurrences, but of high
importance or impact. This paper presents a Systematic Review (SR) of
rare event detection across various modalities using Machine Learning
(ML) and Deep Learning (DL) techniques. This review comprehensively
outlines techniques and methods best suited for rare event detection
across various modalities, while also highlighting future research
prospects. To the extent of our knowledge, this paper is a pioneering SR
dedicated to exploring this specific research domain. This SR identifies
the employed methods and techniques, the datasets utilized, and the
effectiveness of these methods in detecting rare events. Four modalities
concerning RED are reviewed in this SR: video, sound, image, and time
series. The corresponding performances for the different ML and DL
techniques for RED are discussed comprehensively, together with the
associated RED challenges and limitations as well as the directions for
future research are highlighted. This SR aims to offer a comprehensive
overview of the existing methods in RED, serving as a valuable resource
for researchers and practitioners working in the respective field.
Tilting at Windmills: Bernanke and Blanchard’s Obsession with the Wage-Price Spiral
Authors:   Department Economics of Technology and Innovation (ETI), Faculty of Technology, Policy and Management, Delft University of Technology, Jaffalaan 5, 2628 BX Delft, The Netherlands., Storm Servaas
Published: April 2024

Bernanke and Blanchard (2023) use a simple dynamic New Keynesian model of wage-price determination to explain the sharp acceleration in U.S. inflation during 2021-2023. They claim their model closely tracks the pandemic-era inflation and they confidently conclude that “… we don’t think that the recent experience justifies throwing out existing models of wage-price dynamics.” This paper argues that this confidence is misplaced. The Bernanke and Blanchard is another failed attempt to salvage establishment macroeconomics after the massive onslaught of adverse inflationary circumstances with which it could evidently not contend. It misrepresents American economic reality, hides distributional issues from view, de-politicizes (monetary and fiscal) policy-making, and sets monetary policymakers up to deliver significantly more monetary tightening than can be justified on the basis of more realistic model analyses

Aim: To study the results of the quality of life, the state of vestibular disorders and the nature of walking of amateur athletes with the consequences of a combat craniocerebral injury after rehabilitation treatment according to a correctional program.
Materials and Methods: The study was conducted on the basis of the Ukrainian Scientific Research Institute of Prosthetics in Kharkov. Under observation were 38 men aged 25-42 years with long-term consequences of a closed craniocerebral injury in the late long-term period. In all patients, complications after TBI were persistent headache, decreased muscle strength in the lower extremities, impaired coordination and balance, and walking patterns. All patients were involved in amateur sports before injury. The following research methods were used during the examination: visual analogue pain scale (VAS), Lovett manual muscle test, Bohannon test, ≪Timed Up and Go test≫.
Results: All patients were randomly divided into two groups. Patients Gr.1 (n=20) were trained according to the developed program, which included training according to the PNF method, kinesiotherapy, classes on the C-mill sensory treadmill and the Hunova computer device, segmental reflex massage. Patients Gr. 2 (n=18) underwent a course of physical rehabilitation according to the generally accepted methodology of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine. After working with patients according to the developed correction and rehabilitation program, the following dynamics were observed: the quality of life on the VAS scale in Gr.1 patients had a statistically significant difference (p<0.05) compared to the primary indicator. The dynamics of the Lovett manual muscle test indicated an increase in the muscle strength of the extensor and flexor muscle groups of the lower extremities, the dynamics of the balance indicator in the standing position behind Bohann in all Gr.1 patients and acquired statistical significance (p<0,05). According to the test “Timed Up and Go” patients Gr.1 approached the standard value (p<0,05). In all patients of Gr. 2, the studied characteristics had a positive trend (p>0,05).
Conclusions: Individual selection of physical exercises, development of correctional and rehabilitation programs, multidisciplinary approach has a positive impact on changes in the functional state of amateur athletes, quality of life and contributes to the return to an active social life.

Published: April 2024

Few Brazilian rural landowners are aware of the technology available to survey the subsoil of terrains earmarked for aquaculture operations. This study evaluated subsoils of Monte Alegre (area 1) and Montenegro 3 (area 2) aquaculture zones in the geographic region of Bragança (Amazon region, northern Brazil), and the adequacy of these areas for aquaculture. Ground Penetrating Radar, electrical conductivity measurements, and sedimentological analyses were applied to evaluate the subsoil of fish farms. Apparent conductivity values recorded by the Electromagnetic Induction (EMI) in area 1 indicated possible presence of clayey soils. Excavation analysis and sedimentological samples (sand) from this site confirmed the inadequacy of the terrain. The EMI tool in area 2 indicated possible presence of clayey soils. Geophysical and sedimentological results from the site confirmed its suitability. These geophysical tools are recommended for evaluating prospective aquaculture sites, given their capacity to provide reliable data on the subsoil characteristics , which is essential to guarantee the success and sustainability of aquaculture operations.
Serendipity in Scientific Research
Authors: Ross Wendy , Copeland Samantha , Feinstein Stuart
Published: April 2024

Serendipity refers to the combination of “accident” and “sagacity”; an unexpected and unpredicted event which is noticed by an agent with the right skills to make the most of it. Famous examples include Jocelyn Bell’s discovery of pulsars which was made after she noticed an unusual output from a radio telescope (Arfini, 2023). Bell noticed and unpredicted output on the graphical trace and followed it up, eventually discovering the existence of pulsars. The rate of serendipitous discovery in science is unclear, although it has been estimated to be high (Thagard, 2012). This series is meant not only to add to the repertoire of serendipity stories, but to begin treating these tales as members in a growing archive, in which we attend to the role of chance and the unexpected in our rational pursuits of knowledge. Scientists here will share how accidents and reason intertwined in their practice, and researchers of serendipity will unpack how that happens.
construção da inclusão
Authors: Omote Sadao
Published: April 2024

O presente texto defende a ideia de que a inclusão vem sendo construída há séculos e polemizar algumas questões relacionadas a ela. São aventados argumentos de que a inclusão não teve início na década de 1990, em particular a partir da Declaração de Salamanca. Argumenta-se também que, como um processo contínuo iniciado há séculos, a inclusão se ampliará progressivamente, ao mesmo tempo em que, como decorrência do progresso, que implica inevitavelmente a emergência de novas oportunidades e demandas, novas áreas de exclusão serão criadas. Portanto, não haverá uma sociedade totalmente inclusiva. Admitir a possibilidade da inclusão total significa admitir a estagnação da sociedade. Mas, a utopia da inclusão total é necessária para servir de norte à permanente luta do Homem em busca da progressiva melhoria na qualidade de vida, da superação de seus limites e de ação sobre o seu ambiente.

A equipe multidisciplinar tem sido uma das alternativas para se prover apoio à escolarização dos alunos do público-alvo da Educação Especial em escolas comuns e oobjetivo do presente estudo consistiu em descrever e analisar o serviço de uma equipe dessas que atuava em escolas, e tinha sete profissionais. A metodologia baseada na pesquisa colaborativa, teve um estudo documental, entrevistas individuais e grupos reflexivos. Os resultados contextualizam o histórico de criação e descrevem e analisam a organização do serviço da equipe multiprofissional. As evidências permitiram concluir que há demanda escolar para o trabalho desses especialistas, serviço este que é valorizado pela escola. Entretanto, a expectativa dos educadores continua sendo de prestação de serviços clínicos, tais como avaliação e atendimentos diretos aos alunos. Concluímos que os profissionais não se constituíam enquanto equipe e para que o serviço de uma equipe multiprofissional pudesse contribuir para construir escolas inclusivas, seria necessário desenvolver filosofia comum, pautada no modelo educacional da consultoria colaborativa escolar, e prover desenvolvimento profissional permanente para a manutenção de práticas colaborativas da equipe.

Published: April 2024

A análise da Língua de Sinais sofre com a falta de acesso a registros de vídeos dos dados bem rotulados, fundamentais para o desenvolvimento dos estudos e adequados para tradução e tecnologias automatizadas. Os conjuntos de dados (com os sinais utilizados no cotidiano da Libras no Brasil) geralmente são limitados a comportamentos criados para estudos específicos e podem diferir em intensidade e tempo do que ocorre espontaneamente. Este artigo apresenta uma descrição detalhada do conjunto de dados de Ação Facial em Língua de Sinais (SILFA) desde da sua concepção até a preparação e análise posterior. Um conjunto de oito jovens surdos adultos foi gravado em vídeo sinalizando sentenças com a intenção de eliciar expressões espontâneas. Além de serem anotadas manualmente de acordo com o sistema de codificação facial, cada quadro de vídeo foi anotado com a presença ou ausência de expressão facial e transcrição em português. O presente estudo visa fornecer informações sobre a presença de expressões faciais em língua de sinais, por meio do protagonismo do Surdo, com destaque no mapeamento de fluxos de vídeos na presença de unidades de ação facial. Além disso, uma análise entre expressões faciais afetivas e gramaticais é exaustivamente discutida. Por fim, o corpus foi criado. Até onde sabemos, este é o primeiro conjunto de dados de língua de sinais brasileira com foco em expressão faciais, em que são fornecidas as frases traduzidas em português escrito, anotações das unidades de ação facial para as capturas de vídeo.

O artigo traz uma investigação sobre a formação de professores, mais especificamente no ensino fundamental (6 º ao 9 º ano) e ensino médio da Educação Básica, a partir das licenciaturas em geografia no contexto da educação especial e inclusiva. Nosso objetivo foi identificar as possíveis razões e/ou as lacunas presentes nesta formação. Para esse trabalho utilizou-se método de revisão bibliográfica sistemática das produções acadêmicas, além de se apoiar nas literaturas acerca das legislações, tendo como base a declaração de Salamanca (1994), a LDB (1996) e demais legislações. A seguir nos debruçamos na análise das grades curriculares de 16 cursos de licenciatura em Geografia, da cidade de São Paulo, observando as disciplinas oferecidas no contexto da inclusão. Percebemos um crescente movimento na produção acadêmica sobre a formação de professores de geografia na perspectiva da educação especial e inclusiva a partir de 2010, e que as matrizes curriculares observadas já estão mais inseridas e atualizadas nas legislações vigentes que promovem a inclusão, na formação de professores da Educação Básica em nível superior, para além da disciplina de Libras. Concluímos que existem avanços na legislação e nos debates públicos sociais, porém que ainda não sustentam as bases escolares deixando de suprir as demandas da inclusão nos espaços da educação.

Authors: Sakhno Andrii , Boltovska Lyudmila
Published: April 2024

The article analyzes the peculiarities of the functioning of economic entities in Ukraine in the context of the implementation of knowledge-intensive activities and the provision of knowledge-intensive services, which allows to substantiate the essence of the innovation process as the main factor in the development of modern production. The domestic statistical materials were used, in particular the Classification of types of economic activity from 2010, as well as indicators of business entities, grouped according to special aggregations provided for in Regulation (of the European Union - hereinafter EU) № 2020 / 1197 of 30.07.2020 regarding structural statistics of enterprises in 2010-2022 with the aim of forming approaches to the use of the concepts «science-intensive activity» and «science-intensive services».

The expediency of dividing knowledge-intensive services into such types as knowledge-intensive high-tech services, knowledge-intensive market services, knowledge-intensive financial services and other knowledge-intensive services is substantiated, which made it possible to reveal the relationship between knowledge-intensive services and knowledge-intensive scientific activities in general, as well as in the business industry in particular. A correlation-regression analysis of the influence of knowledge-intensive services on knowledge-intensive activities in Ukraine, including knowledge-intensive activities in the business industry, was carried out, which allowed to reveal a high density of communication, and the growing straight-line function indicates the need to increase the provision of knowledge-intensive services for the growth of knowledge-intensive activities.

Based on the analysis of the normative legal acts, the given laws of Ukraine regulating the use of knowledge-intensive services determine the directions of their implementation in the context of compliance with existing processes and connection with the types of knowledge-intensive activities. The method of analyzing the operating environment was used in order to identify the efficiency between types of knowledge-intensive services and knowledge-intensive activities, which made it possible to justify the need to increase the volume of knowledge-intensive market services, other knowledge-intensive services, knowledge-intensive activities and business industry.
Solubility Modeling of Some Chlorophenols in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide
Authors: Mahesh Garlapati , Garlapati Chandrasekhar
Published: April 2024

The basic information required to implement any supercritical processes is solubility. The solubility data is correlated with various models. For binary systems (solute-solvent), solubility data is limited in the literature, which makes it’s modelling essential. Equation of state (EoS) method is one of the best techniques to model solubility data. For EoS modelling to be implemented, critical properties of the solute and the solvent are essential but, the exact realistic properties are sparse for solutes. The present work deals with the modelling of the solubility of solid solutes in supercritical carbon dioxide solvent with and without critical properties of the solute. Redlich-Kwong (RK) EoS along with Kwak-Mansoori (KM) mixing rules is used for the solubility data modelling. In this work, three substituted phenols and supercritical carbon dioxide systems are considered for modelling. Finally, the correlating abilities of RK EoS along with KM mixing rules with and without critical properties of the solute are indicated in terms of the average absolute relative deviation percentage (AARD%) and Akaike information criterion (AIC).
Antimicrobial Activity of Green Synthesized Copper Nanoparticles (CuNPs) Using Aqueous Extract of Psidium guajava on Clinical Bacteria Isolates
Authors: James Mamman Abakeyah , Myek Bako , Ladan Zakari
Published: April 2024

The eco-friendly synthesis of nanoparticles using an aqueous plant extract as a capping and stabilizing agent has garnered substantial attention, particularly in pharmaceuticals and drug delivery applications. This study focused on utilizing copper sulfate pentahydrate (CuSO4·5H2O) as a precursor to synthesize copper nanoparticles at both pH 4-5 and pH 8, with Psidium guajava (leaves and fruits) extract playing a crucial role. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy identified four major functional groups at distinct peaks, confirming their responsibility for capping and stabilizing the synthesized P.g-CuNPs. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed spherical shapes with an average particle size range of 20-30 nm. Energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis confirmed the presence of pure copper (Cu) at 54.15%. The antimicrobial study demonstrated that P.g-CuNPs synthesized at pH 4-5 exhibited complete growth inhibition of all tested bacterial strains at varying concentrations. Furthermore, serially diluted P.g-CuNPs (pH 5) inhibited Salmonella spp, E. coli, and Streptococcus spp at 100 μg/mL, while P.g-CuNPs (pH 8) only inhibited E. coli at the same concentration. Notably, acid-based synthesized P.g-CuNPs exhibited higher efficacy in the antimicrobial study compared to their alkaline-based counterparts. This study suggests the potential biomedical applications of P.g-CuNPs, including therapeutic drugs for microbial infectious diseases, integration into textile coatings, and nanocapsulation for food storage to extend shelf life.

The paper considers the possibility of using artificial intelligence methods for computer modeling of fractal surfaces. Fractals act as a mathematical model for creating a random surface relief. The random profile is constructed using the random displacement method, which is an algorithm for generating random functions with a spectrum. Surfaces are defined with the help of data arrays, which are checked by the self-similarity condition. Based on the defined arrays, models are built using the Weierstrass function. The algorithm for constructing surfaces has been refined and improved using machine learning neural network generative models. Thus, instead of simply creating a fractal surface using random functions, the generator creates fractal surfaces based on the distribution learned during training. The verification criterion is an algorithm based, in general, on a mathematical Monte Carlo method. The obtained results show the realism of the constructed fractal surfaces using neural networks. The models of the obtained surface reliefs can be used in modeling contact mechanics, mechanics of deformable solid bodies.

The relevance of the study is caused by unresolved problems of preventing the negative impact of production and consumption waste generated in the process of life support of settlements. According to the authors, the most promising area for the study of such a life–threatening technosphere object as waste is the sphere of construction and urban management and its most important sector - construction, reconstruction, repair, renovation of real estate. During the study, it was found that the waste of repair and construction production, most of its mass, which are low-hazard and practically harmless to the environment, serve as a source of various types of valuable secondary raw materials. This raw material can be used in the production of a wide range of construction and other products, the production of works for various purposes, as sources of alternative energy sources. The purpose of this study was to form the configuration of a resource-saving model of repair and construction works as a mechanism for ensuring the environmental safety of the urban environment, preventing natural emergencies, their adverse consequences for the life of the population, the sustainable functioning of economic facilities, conservation and protection of the natural environment and natural resources. The scientific approach proposed in the work is aimed at obtaining two important scientific and practical results: preventing the negative impact of waste on the environment at the source of their formation: the processes of repair and construction work and, at the same time, the technological transformation of useful resource components of waste into secondary material and energy resources. This ensures the second important result: the preservation of the country's natural resources by replacing them with secondary raw materials and alternative energy sources. The research is applied in nature, its results can be used in the implementation of measures for the transition of the construction and urban management system to a resource-saving technological way of environmentally safe life support for settlements.

DEVELOPMENT OF ORGANIZATIONAL AND TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF GAS ENGINE FUEL DISTRIBUTION PROCESSES FOR SERVICE PRODUCTIONS
Authors:   Kazan National Research Technological University, Battalov A.F. , Shinkevich A.I. ,   Kazan National Research Technological University
Published: April 2024

The article is devoted to the current problem of improving resource-saving processes in service industries of industrial enterprises. With the development of the practice of switching industrial vehicles to gas engine fuel, the issue of accounting for supplied gas becomes relevant. The purpose of the article is to develop organizational and technical solutions to improve the quality of gas engine fuel distribution processes for supporting subsystems of industrial enterprises in terms of metrological support for accounting for resource consumption. The main research methods are the analysis of normative and regulatory documents, a comparative analysis of methods and methods for organizing gas distribution processes, a method of system design for measuring resource consumption. As a means of measuring the amount of supplied resources, Coriolis mass meters are used, where mass flow and density are measured by the direct method, and volume flow by the recalculation method. The article substantiates the feasibility of switching the service subsystems of industrial enterprises to gas engine fuel due to its lower cost, the presence of main and distribution gas pipelines, reducing the impact on the environment, and increasing the service life of the motor engine. Disadvantages of known methods for checking gas dispensers have been identified, namely the need to bleed gas from cylinders into the atmosphere after each operation of filling and weighing cylinders, the need to deliver heavy cylinders and scales to gas pressure stations, as well as the need to decommission gas dispensers during verification of filling cylinders. . A model of a mobile automobile gas refueling station has been proposed, which differs from the existing ones in that a reference meter block is installed directly after the refueling unit, with the help of which the commercial metering system of the gas filling station is verified. This method of organizing the process of distribution of gas motor fuel within the gas filling infrastructure of an industrial enterprise can significantly improve the quality of work of transport subsystems of enterprises: increase the accuracy of gas consumption control, eliminate downtime of industrial transport, and provide the ability to take into account the seasonality of fuel consumption.

Authors:   Samara National Research University named after Academician S.P. Korolyov, Romanova V.B.
Published: April 2024

The article contains an analysis of documents from the archival fund of the Central Scientific Research and Design Institute for Urban Planning, stored in the Russian State Archive in Samara. The institute was created in 1963 as a result of the merger of the Gorstroyproekt trust and the Scientific Research Institute of Urban and District Planning, which has been involved in urban planning since the 1930s. Until the 1980s, the institute was a leading organization carrying out research and design work in the field of urban planning; its research team developed methodological and normative literature, compiled textbooks and course programs for construction universities, and also worked on the civil engineering projects in the USSR and abroad. The archival fund of the Institute is representative and allows us to trace the main stages of the formation of the construction industry in the Soviet Union. The design of civil engineering facilities was carried out in close connection with the industrial capacities of a certain area, which makes it possible to determine the main elements of the socio-cultural space and infrastructure of Soviet industrial enterprises.
FAMILY IN KULAK EXILE IN THE BASHKIR ASSR IN THE 1930s: QUANTITATIVE COMPOSITION, BIRTH RATE, MORTALITY
Authors:   Ufa Federal Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Isyangulov Sh.N.
Published: April 2024

The subject of demographic analysis in this article is families classified as kulaks, evicted from their homes and resettled in special settlements (labor settlements) of the Bashkir Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic during the period of collectivization in the USSR. The study is written on the basis of documentary sources published by V.N. Zemskov, as well as archival sources stored in the National Archive of the Republic of Bashkortostan. The sources make it possible to investigate the quantitative composition of families in special settlements (work settlements), establish the proportion of disabled persons, the percentage of teenagers and children under 4 years of age, and calculate the birth rate taking into account the free population living in labor settlements. The analysis carried out by the author led him to conclusions about the high mortality rate, especially for children under 8 years of age, in the labor settlements of Bashkiria in 1932-1934, and also to determine that mortality in labor settlements decreased and the birth rate reached high levels in the second half of the 1930s, which is explained by the traditional reproductive attitudes of labor settlers.

THE ENVIRONMENTAL DIMENSION OF THE DEMILITARIZATION OF THE RUSSIAN FRONT OF THE FIRST WORLD WAR
Authors:   Samara National Research University named after Academician S.P. Korolyov, Zherdeva Yu.A.
Published: April 2024

The article presents the main approaches to understanding the environmental consequences of the demilitarization of the Russian front during the First World War. The aim of the study is to reconstruct the key aspects of the demilitarization of the military landscapes of the front during the demobilization of the Russian army from October 1917 to March 1918, and to identify the long-term consequences of the impact of this process on the environment. The geographical scope of the study is mainly limited to the South-Western Front, which until October 1917 was the longest in the European theatre of operations and the demobilization of which has hardly been studied. The study is based on archival material from the Russian State Archive of Military History, the Russian State Military Archive and the State Archive of the Russian Federation, as well as published sources. The paper contains the analysis of the threats posed to the front and the frontline territory by the collapse of the Russian army, unauthorized chaotic demobilization and loss of control over military property, the practices of remilitarization of the front space, as well as the long-term consequences of the unfinished demobilization of the army and the demilitarization of the front. The author concludes that during the demobilization and subsequent remilitarization of the former Russian front, the basic environmental practices, no longer controlled by responsible civilian institutions such as zemstvos, became even more predatory. The loss of control over military property by the military command in October-November 1917 was accompanied by the loss of control over order in the districts of the frontline provinces by the local civilian authorities. If during the war years demilitarization (cleaning trenches and their surroundings from the effects of suffocating gases, sanitation, land reclamation, collecting weapons from battlefields) was practiced as a means of preserving the combat effectiveness of the army, then chaotic demobilization overshadowed these environmental issues with trivial problems of transporting and preserving military property. In the environmental field, these effects become particularly clear when we examine the economic processes of the inter-war period.
