Permissibility of using artificial intelligence in law enforcement activities
Authors: Chyhryna Halyna ,   State Tax University
Published: June 2024

The article defines the admissibility conditions for the practical use of conclusions (solutions) regarding artificial intelligence in law enforcement activities. A warning was expressed that depending on the circumstances of its specific application and use and the level of technological development, artificial intelligence may create risks and harm state or private interests and the fundamental rights of individuals. The admissibility of using artificial intelligence systems and conclusions (decisions) of artificial intelligence in law enforcement activities is established as a reason for conducting an additional check but not a basis for making a decisive decision by a law enforcement and law enforcement body. Attention is focused on the fact that artificial intelligence systems help law enforcement officers make decisions and not make decisions instead of law enforcement officers. Modern scientific views on using artificial intelligence systems in law enforcement activities are analyzed. The guiding provisions of the draft legislative resolution of the European Parliament on the proposal for the regulation of the European Parliament and the Council on the establishment of harmonized rules on artificial intelligence (Law on artificial intelligence) and separate legal acts of Ukraine in the field of development and use of artificial intelligence technologies are analyzed. It is concluded that there needs to be a proper scientific substantiation of the permissible limits (legal, ethical) of the use of conclusions (decisions) of artificial intelligence in law enforcement activities and the lack of specialists who can create and properly control artificial intelligence technologies. The expediency of developing the Code of Ethics for artificial intelligence with the participation of a wide range of interested parties, including law enforcement officers, is supported. It is noted that there is a need to bring the current legislation in the field of using artificial intelligence technologies into compliance with international legal acts and established standards, in particular regarding the admissibility (acceptability) of using the conclusions (decisions) of artificial intelligence in law enforcement activities and increasing the level of professional training of specialists to provide the field of artificial intelligence technologies with qualified staff capable of monitoring the process of applying artificial intelligence technologies in law enforcement activities. Keywords: artificial intelligence, artificial intelligence technologies, law enforcement activities, law enforcement agencies.
Evaluation of Waste Ceramic Tiles, Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement and Recycle Concrete Aggregate as Pavement Sub-Base
Authors: Roy Nirmal Chandra
Published: June 2024

The use of various reclaimed or recycled materials from ancient structures as a source of construction materials has become common in modern road and pavement engineering procedures due to the shortage of fresh natural aggregate supplies and rising processing prices. Waste ceramic tiles (WCT), reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP), and recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) have all been used for a long time as aggregates in the construction of pavement. WCT, RAP, and RCA are all thoroughly analyzed in this paper, with a focus on their mechanical, environmental, and physical properties. To evaluate the load-bearing ability, drainage capabilities, and long-term durability of these substitute materials when applied as pavement sub-base, laboratory tests and performance analysis were carried out. Since different mixtures of these materials are created, the maximum California bearing ratio of 25.54% is found. By promoting the usage of recycled materials, eliminating waste, and lowering the carbon footprint associated with conventional construction processes, this initiative helps to sustainably build out transportation infrastructure.

Authors: Corsi Giulio , Marino Bill , Wong Willow
Published: June 2024

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) models have introduced new complexities and risks to information environments, as synthetic media may facilitate the spread of misinformation and erode public trust. This study examines the prevalence and characteristics of synthetic media on social media platform X from December 2022 to September 2023. Leveraging crowdsourced annotations identifying synthetic content, our analysis reveals an increase in AI-generated media over time, with an initial spike in March 2023, following the release of Midjourney V5. While most synthetic media identified is non-political and non-malicious, concerning deepfakes targeting political figures persist, raising questions on the potential for misuse of AI technologies.

Authors: Tang Rongwei , Vraga Emily K. , Bode Leticia , Boulianne Shelley
Published: June 2024

Observed corrections of misinformation on social media can encourage more accurate beliefs, but for these benefits to occur, corrections must happen. By exploring people’s perceptions of witnessing and performing corrections on social media, we find that many people say they observe and perform corrections across the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and France. We find higher levels of self-reported correction experiences in the United States but few differences between who reports these experiences across countries. Specifically, younger and more educated adults, as well as those who see misinformation more frequently online, are more likely to report observing and performing corrections across contexts.

Published: June 2024

В работе представлены результаты экспериментального исследования точности определения дальности между подводными объектами при помощи гидроакустических модемов uWave в условиях ледового эксперимента в мелком водоёме. Проведены две независимые проверки: определение фактической скорости звука на основе относительных измерений, и определение дальностей на основе скорости звука, вычисленной по измерению температуры встроенными в модемы датчиками. Общий размер выборки составляет 1260 измерений времени распространения сигнала, выполненных в 10 различных взаимных расположений двух объектов. Проведён анализ источников погрешностей, в ходе которого, в частности, выявлена линейная зависимость роста среднеквадратичного отклонения измерений времени распространения с дальностью. В качестве источника указан эффект удлинения траекторий лучей в виду нелинейности распространения звука в среде. Экспериментальная проверка точности определения времени распространения сигнала и наклонной дальности между модемами uWave показала, что среднеквадратичное отклонение имеет порядок 0.1% от дальности.

The paper presents the results of an experimental study of the accuracy of measurment of the distance between underwater objects using uWave underwater acoustic modems under the conditions of an ice experiment in a shallow water body. Two independent tests were carried out: determining the actual speed of sound based on relative measurements, and determining ranges based on the speed of sound calculated from temperature measurements by sensors built into modems. The total sample size is 1260 signal propagation time measurements taken at 10 different relative positions of the two objects. An analysis of the sources of errors was carried out, during which, in particular, a linear dependence of the increase in the standard deviation of propagation time measurements with range was revealed. The source indicated is the effect of lengthening ray trajectories due to the nonlinearity of sound propagation in the medium. An experimental test of the accuracy of determining the signal propagation time and slant range between uWave modems showed that the standard deviation is on the order of 0.1% of the range.

Agronomic crop production in California, including grains and animal feed, faces multiple challenges that could be addressed by extension support. This means that extension services need to understand priorities for using their limited resources. Until now, a statewide assessment of the most important topics for research and extension was lacking. A survey was conducted by the University of California Cooperative Extension (UCCE) to identify high-priority needs and inform extension programming based on grower, consultant, and allied industry input. Our goal was to compare the importance of different topics with the level of satisfaction regarding UCCE’s delivery of information on these topics. Survey respondents identified integrated pest management, nutrient and irrigation management, and variety testing as high-priority needs, with overall high satisfaction regarding UCCE’s program delivery on these topics. Topics needing more focus (high priority but below-average level of satisfaction) included testing new products, soil health management, and water conservation and storage. Areas of low priority and low satisfaction included niche marketing, emerging crops, organic production, harvest/post-harvest technology, salinity management, compost and manure management, and greenhouse gas emission reductions. To address stakeholder challenges, results from this study suggest that research and extension efforts should prioritize issues directly impacting on-farm crop production. At the same time, areas of low interest reflect a need for more support to engage farmers on these topics, particularly those concerning state environmental regulations and challenges to local and global food production and security.
Econometric Analysis of the Influence of Factors on the Share of Energy From Renewable Sources in the EU
Authors: Orlov Andrei V.
Published: June 2024

The use of renewable energy is at the core of EU energy policy, reducing dependence on fossil fuels imported from non-EU countries, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and decoupling energy costs from oil prices. Currently, 22.5% of energy consumed in the EU comes from renewable sources. This increase over 2021 is due to strong growth in solar energy. This share is also increasing due to the consumption of non-renewable energy sources in 2022. According to expert forecasts, the share of renewable energy sources in Europe will continue to grow. Achieving the 42.5% target by 2030 will require a deep transformation of the European energy system. The very strong climate and energy policies pursued in the EU for about a dozen years and aimed at limiting emissions of harmful substances into the environment have led to a gradual abandonment of traditional energy sources. Increasing demand for energy while reducing its supply from traditional sources means that in order not to make the economy too dependent on energy imports, the dynamic development of renewable energy is necessary. The EU is therefore taking very extensive operational and strategic actions to use other sources for production, such as wind, solar energy, mechanical water energy, biomass and geothermal energy, as well as tidal waves, ocean heat, wave energy and sea currents. In this study, we assess the impact of energy, economic and environmental factors on the share of renewable energy in the EU. The aim of these studies was to identify the energy, economic and environmental indicators that have the greatest impact on the share of energy from renewable sources in the European Union. The study was conducted using the Statgraphics Centurion software package. The source data for the study was data from the official Eurostat website for the period from 2012 to 2022. The results of this study show that changes in gross domestic product in market prices per capita have a positive impact, as do changes in greenhouse gas emissions per capita negatively affect the share of energy from renewable sources in the EU in the period 2012-2022. This may most likely be due to the fact that EU countries are more likely to invest in renewable energy as they can afford to invest in the development of expensive renewable energy technologies and support subsidies for the promotion and regulation of renewable energy. The negative impact of per capita greenhouse gas emissions on renewable energy development is due to the high share of coal in the EU energy mix, meaning that coal not only has negative environmental impacts, but also negative environmental impacts. development of renewable energy.
Delegación y deferencia: reflexiones desde una perspectiva económica del Derecho de sociedades
Authors: Sáez Lacave Maribel
Published: June 2024

En este trabajo se propone una aproximación a la deferencia judicial a través del modelo económico de delegación. En un entorno de información asimétrica existe un trade-off entre discrecionalidad y deferencia en la supervisión o monitoring ex post. La delegación que origina la relación principal-agente produce costes, pero también beneficios. Es más, incluso cuando la supervisión o el control ex post estricto o no deferente por parte de los accionistas es eficiente, constituye ex ante una amenaza de expropiación, lo que reduce la iniciativa empresarial y las inversiones no contractuales. La revisión judicial puede analizarse también siguiendo este modelo. No siempre la revisión judicial estricta es la más deseable, porque hay entornos en el que es más beneficioso garantizar un ámbito de discrecionalidad o de impunidad. Con todo, la manera es efectiva de lidiar con la relación principal-agente no es a través de la revisión judicial, sino a través de los incentivos contractuales
Control judicial y deferencia en el Derecho administrativo
Authors: Arroyo Jiménez Luis
Published: June 2024

El problema de la deferencia está relacionado con la intensidad del control judicial de la administración: mientras que en algunas ocasiones los jueces realizan un control pleno de la legalidad de la actuación administrativa, en otras llevan a cabo un control menos intenso, un control deferente, de la legalidad de la actuación administrativa sometida a su enjuiciamiento. Después de describir el fenómeno de la deferencia en el Derecho administrativo español, europeo y comparado, en este artículo se afrontan tres cuestiones relevantes: la de su delimitación conceptual, la de las razones que la justifican y, en fin, la de las piezas con las que se construye.

Authors: Cantasano* Nicola
Published: June 2024

Posidonia oceanica in one of the most important endemic species of Mediterranean Sea. In pristine coastal seawaters, it forms extensive meadows on mobile and hard substrata. Posidonia beds provide a lot of ecological roles and, amongst them, there is new ecosystem service known as “Blue Carbon”. This important function is the potential, performed by the meadows, to reduce the increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the terrestrial atmosphere, binding it as organic matter in the leaves of the plants and, also, in the sediment of this valuable ecosystem. This study aims to assess the process of carbon sequestration performed by Posidonia beds and the dynamics of carbon storage through the different levels of the meadows.

Reparative chromatin assembly is an important step in maintaining the stability of the genome. Proper chromatin assembly is provided by histone chaperones. Violation of the function of these proteins can lead to the development of various forms of cancer and to a number of hereditary diseases in humans. One of the key processes in the reparative assembly of chromatin is acetylation and deacetylation of histones, complexes NuB4 and RPD3. Results presented in this work demonstrate that inactivation of Rpd3 and Sin3 subunits of the RPD3 complex blocks super activation of RNR3 gene. The phenotypes of rpd3Δ and sin3Δ mutants differ due to different activation of Rad53 kinase in these mutants, which may be due to deacetylation of Rad53 by Rpd3 deacetylase. Our findings revealed that the contribution of deacetylation of Rad53 kinase makes a significant contribution to the regulation hyperactivation RNR complex after UV irradiation. In addition, this work provides indirect evidence that the Him1 protein may participate as a histone chaperone in chromatin repair assembly.

Authors:   Medical University of Warsaw, Poland, Kusy Bartłomiej
Published: June 2024

Introduction and purpose. Long-chain ω-3 PUFAs such as DHA and EPA are often present in high amounts in algae and fish. DHA in particular is crucial for the proper progress and functioning of the cerebrum because it is the main structural component of ω-3 PUFA in the brain. This makes it an indispensable element of the phospholipids of the nervous membrane. The purpose of this article is to present the assistance of Omega-3 acids in the functioning of the nervous system. State of knowledge. The text discusses a literature review focusing on the impact of omega-3 fatty acids. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are essential for overall health and have been extensively studied for their contributions to human wellbeing and disease management. Recent research indicates their effectiveness in preventing and treating various diseases. Omega-3 PUFAs have been identified as therapeutic agents, particularly in combating inflammatory conditions like cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. Material and method. The aim of this article is to present the benefits of omega-3 fatty acids augmentation. We used publications outlining properties of polyunsaturated fatty acids on the brain, articles presenting the outcomes of polyunsaturated fatty acids were reviewed using the PubMed platform. The review included the keywords “Omega-3 fatty acids”, “DHA”, “EPA”, “PUFA”. Summary. The review managed to present the influence of Omega-3 fatty acids on brain development, aging and a useful addition to the treatment of diseases such as Alzheimer's and drug-resistant epilepsy.

Total edentulousness presents considerable obstacles to patients in terms of aesthetics, function, and general well-being [1]. Fixed implant-supported prostheses have emerged as a possible treatment option, providing more stability, comfort, and chewing efficiency than typical removable dentures [2]. To obtain predictable and effective outcomes, it is critical to use good case selection, detailed treatment planning, and interdisciplinary teamwork [3]. Considerations for bone quantity and quality, occlusal systems, and maintenance methods are also highlighted in order to maximize long-term prosthetic success and patient happiness [4]. This case report presents the interdisciplinary management of implant-prosthetic treatment and demonstrates the effectiveness of dental implants in the oral rehabilitation of completely edentulous patients, with a focus on the all-on-six treatment approach.

Background and objectives. Temporary anchoring devices (TADs) are essential for controlling unwanted reactive movements in teeth because orthodontic treatments require effective anchorage to control tooth movement. The goal of this systematic review is to collect information on the advantages, disadvantages, and applications of TADs in orthodontic treatment by addressing the variables affecting their stability and efficacy. Materials and methods. Our review is a non-Cochrane review, following the PICO format for selection criteria, analyzed studies published between 2011 and 2021. The review focused on systematic reviews, meta-analyses, RCTs, case control, and cohort studies in English, extracted from PubMed and Google Scholar databases. A total of 123 papers were assessed, with 39 included for review. Results. The review found that TAD stability is highly influenced by micro-implant design, operator experience, placement technique, bone morphology and histology, and patient variables (such as age and sex). Notably, the quality and amount of bone, the length and diameter of the implant, and the surgical method all played a significant role in achieving primary stability. Although loosening and discomfort are possible side effects, TADs have been demonstrated to provide reliable and effective anchoring during orthodontic treatment. Conclusions.
