Published: July 2023

A noninvasive brain–computer interface is a central task in the comprehensive analysis and understanding of the brain and is an important challenge in international brain-science research. Current implanted brain–computer interfaces are cranial and invasive, which considerably limits their applications. The development of new noninvasive reading and writing technologies will advance substantial innovations and breakthroughs in the field of brain–computer interfaces. Here, we review the theory and development of the ultrasound brain functional imaging and its applications. Furthermore, we introduce latest advancements in ultrasound brain modulation and its applications in rodents, primates, and human; its mechanism and closed-loop ultrasound neuromodulation based on electroencephalograph are also presented. Finally, high-frequency acoustic noninvasive brain–computer interface is prospected based on ultrasound super-resolution imaging and acoustic tweezers.
Ultrafast Laser Filamentation in Transparent Solids
Authors: Yan Tianyang , Ji Lingfei
Published: July 2023

Ultrafast laser filamentation results from the interaction of ultrafast laser with Kerr media. During filamentary propagation, the transparent medium is altered by numerous linear and nonlinear effects of ultrashort laser pulses. Filamentation can cause material modification in solids through laser energy deposition and ionization processes, which creates a new opportunity for ultrafast laser processing of materials when combined with filamentary propagation characteristics, such as intensity champing and long propagation distance. This paper reviews the research on ultrafast laser filamentation in solids for micro- and nano-processing, including the fundamental physics, filamentation characteristics, and applications in solids for ultrafast laser filamentation-induced processing. Additionally highlighted are the difficulties and potential applications for solid-based filamentation-induced processing.

Handmaidens, partners or go-betweens: Reflections on the push and pull of the judicial and justice policy audience
Authors: Mulcahy Linda , Tsalapatanis Anna
Published: July 2023

Debate about the ways in  empirical accounts of socio-legal phenomena may be compromised by close engagement with policy audiences has long dogged discussions of the possibility of progressive agendas in the field. This paper re-examines these critiques by reference to a case study in which the authors worked closely with UK judges and the court service. It argues that accounts of the relationship between the policy audience and researchers frequently rely on overly simplistic conceptualisations of elite state actors and the ways in which empirical researchers engage with the powerful. We suggest that a range of forms of interaction are possible in which researchers can be characterised as  handmaidens, partners or go-betweens. While acknowledging the importance of interrogating how the policy audience can compromise the independence of academic researchers, we argue that debate has tended to rest on oversimplified understandings of the dynamics of interactions with powerful state actors.

A Comparative Study on Routing Protocols: RIPng, OSPFv3 and EIGRPv6 and Their Analysis Using GNS-3
Authors: Sahu Vinay , Sahu Neetu , Sahu Rani
Published: July 2023

Routing of data packets is a critical process on the internet, and routing protocols play a vital role in enabling routers to connect to internetworks using Internet protocols. Internet applications use various routing protocols, such as RIPng, OSPFv3, EIGRPv6, etc., each with its own approach to routing packets. This study presents a basic comparative analysis of as RIPng, OSPFv3, EIGRPv6 protocols. RIPng is an IPv6 routing protocol that allows routers to exchange routing information and calculate the shortest path to a destination based on the number of hops required. OSPFv3 is an IPv6 routing protocol that allows routers to exchange routing information and calculate the shortest path to a destination based on the state of the network links and EIGRPv6 is an IPv6 routing protocol that allows routers to exchange routing information and calculate the shortest path to a destination using both distance-vector and link-state algorithms. The paper "A Comparative Study on Routing Protocols: RIPng, OSPFv3 and EIGRPv6 and Their Analysis Using GNS-3" presents a comparative study on the performance of RIPng, OSPFv3, and EIGRPv6, which are the IPv6 routing protocols equivalent to RIP, OSPF, and EIGRP in IPv4 networks.

Authors: Haque Ahshanul , Chowdhury Md Naseef-Ur-Rahman
Published: July 2023

Drones are now used in a wide range of industries, including delivery services and agriculture. Notwithstanding, controlling robots in powerful conditions can be testing, particularly while performing complex assignments. Conventional strategies for drone mechanization depend on pre-customized directions, restricting their adaptability and versatility. Drones can learn from their interactions with their environment and improve their performance over time with the help of reinforcement learning (RL), which has emerged as a promising method for drone automation in recent years. This paper looks at how RL can be used to automate drones and how it can be used in different industries. In addition, the difficulties of RL-based drone automation and potential directions for future research are discussed in the paper.

Authors: Khan Koffka , Goodridge Wayne
Published: July 2023

Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) has revolutionized multimedia content delivery, enabling efficient video streaming over the internet. One-shot learning, a machine learning paradigm that allows recognition of new classes or objects with minimal training examples, holds promise for enhancing DASH systems. In this comparative study, we present a taxonomy-based analysis of one-shot learning techniques in the context of DASH, examining four taxonomies to provide a comprehensive understanding of their applications, evaluation metrics, and datasets. The first taxonomy focuses on categorizing one-shot learning techniques, including siamese networks, metric learning approaches, prototype-based methods, and generative models. This taxonomy reveals the diversity of techniques employed to tackle one-shot learning challenges in DASH environments. The second taxonomy explores the applications of one-shot learning in DASH. It highlights areas such as video quality prediction, buffer management, content adaptation, and bandwidth estimation, shedding light on how one-shot learning can optimize streaming decisions based on limited or single examples. The third taxonomy addresses evaluation metrics for one-shot learning in DASH. It encompasses accuracy-based metrics, generalization metrics, latency-related metrics, and robustness metrics, providing insights into the performance and effectiveness of one-shot learning approaches under various evaluation criteria. The fourth taxonomy delves into dataset characteristics for one-shot learning in DASH. It categorizes datasets into synthetic datasets, real-world datasets, transfer learning datasets, and unconstrained datasets, enabling researchers to select appropriate data sources and evaluate one-shot learning techniques in diverse streaming scenarios. By conducting this taxonomy-based analysis, our study provides researchers and practitioners with a structured framework for understanding and comparing different aspects of one-shot learning in DASH. It highlights the strengths, weaknesses, and potential applications of various techniques, offers guidance on evaluation metrics, and showcases dataset characteristics for benchmarking and future research. Ultimately, this comparative study aims to foster progress in one-shot learning for DASH by facilitating knowledge exchange, inspiring new research directions, and promoting the development of efficient and adaptive multimedia streaming systems over HTTP.
La gimnasia expresiva de Rudolf Bode y su vínculo con las gimnasias en la formación de profesores de Educación Física en Uruguay (1947-1970)
Authors:   , Parada Larre Borges Tamara
Published: July 2023

La tesis en cuestión analiza los lineamientos principales de la propuesta de la gimnasia expresiva alemana escrita por Rudolf Bode en 1922, las interpretaciones que realizaron de ella el profesor Alberto Langlade y la profesora Nelly Rey de Langlade y las modalidades en las cuales se fue incluyendo y significando en el Instituto Superior de Educación Física del Uruguay. La autora, a partir del trabajo con distintas traducciones, construidas para este estudio y otras publicadas en el idioma inglés, se adentra en las categorías principales que organizan la propuesta de Bode y su propuesta práctica. En ese punto, por medio de la distinción entre leib y körper, muestra que esta gimnasia parte de la premisa de educar al leib, es decir al cuerpo que siente. Se suma a ello, que movilizado por la trama social, cultural y política, el autor asigna una significación a estas prácticas dentro del proyecto nacionalsocialista. Ello, a los ojos de la autora, vincula los procesos de formación del cuerpo y determinados posicionamientos ideológicos. Continúa el análisis, puntualizando en las interpretaciones que realizaron los profesores Alberto Langlade y Nelly Rey de Langlade, donde se destaca el proceso de feminización de la gimnasia expresiva y la invisibilización de la distinción entre leib y körper, que como se dijo más arriba era un punto nodal de la propuesta de Bode. Prosigue su estudio adentrándose en la inclusión de la gimnasia expresiva en el ISEF, trabajando con los programas, manuales de época y las conferencias de Nelly Rey de Langlade y Alberto Langlade.

A proof-of-concept experiment for sub-millisecond temporal and 10 μm order spatial resolution 4D X-ray tomography imaging using a multibeam X-ray imaging system is reported. The 3D structure of a tungsten wire during mechanical deformation was reconstructed using a super-compressed sensing-based algorithm from 28 projection images acquired simultaneously with a temporal resolution of 0.5 ms. The multibeam imaging system does not require rotation of the sample, X-ray source or detector. The experiment demonstrates the potential for improving the time resolution in observing non-repeatable dynamic phenomena, such as those occurring in fluids, living beings, or material fractures.

Introduction. The WHO regularly updates influenza vaccine recommendations to maximize their match with circulating strains. Nevertheless, the effectiveness of the influenza A vaccine, specifically its H3N2 component, has been low for several seasons.
The aim of the study is to develop a mathematical model of cross-immunity based on the array of published WHO hemagglutination inhibition assay (HAI) data.
Materials and methods. In this study, a mathematical model was proposed, based on finding, using regression analysis, the dependence of HAI titers on substitutions in antigenic sites of sequences. The computer program we developed can process data (GISAID, NCBI, etc.) and create real-time databases according to the set tasks.
Results. Based on our research, an additional antigenic site F was identified. The difference in 1.6 times the adjusted R2, on subsets of viruses grown in cell culture and grown in chicken embryos, demonstrates the validity of our decision to divide the original data array by passage histories. We have introduced the concept of a degree of homology between two arbitrary strains, which takes the value of a function depending on the Hamming distance, and it has been shown that the regression results significantly depend on the choice of function. The provided analysis showed that the most significant antigenic sites are A, B, and E. The obtained results on predicted HAI titers showed a good enough result, comparable to similar work by our colleagues.
Conclusion. The proposed method could serve as a useful tool for future forecasts, with further study to confirm its sustainability.
A PEDAGOGIA POLÍTICA DE ANTONIO GRAMSCI
Authors: Amorim Gilberto José de , Rocha João Antônio
Published: July 2023

Nosso intuito é contribuir com a reflexão acerca da proposta de escola unitária, elaborada por Antonio Gramsci. A partir da análise de alguns pressupostos de seu pensamento, objetivamos situar a escola como elemento básico na luta pela hegemonia. As fontes analisadas para o trabalho foram alguns escritos do pensador italiano fundamentalmente aqueles elaborados nos anos de cárceres. A partir dessa análise, e considerando que a escola não é uma ilha, mas uma instituição que reflete e refrata a realidade em que está inserida, demonstramos, por meio do trabalho, que a escola unitária representa a real democratização do acesso ao conhecimento historicamente sistematizado pela humanidade. Ela é a antítese radical e profunda frente à escola burguesa, dualista e segregacionista defendida pelos fascistas de ontem e de hoje.

Tradução do artigo "Gramsci undisabled", de David Forgacs
A maioria dos livros de Antonio Gramsci ou sobre ele reproduz em suas capas a mesma foto de estúdio que data do início da década de 1920. É um retrato de cabeça e ombros que mostram Gramsci com cabelo comprido, um paletó escuro abotoado no pescoço, sem sorrir e olhando para a câmera através de um óculos de armação de arame. Esta também era a imagem dele que mais foi exibida nas filiais do Partido Comunista de toda Itália desde o final dos anos 1940s até 1991. No entanto se nós a compararmos com outras fotografias existentes de Gramsci, bem como com as de outros líderes revolucionários adotados como ícones do movimento comunista, podemos ver que é diferente do primeiro e se assemelha aos últimos de diversas formas. A diferença mais marcante é o apagamento de qualquer sinal de que Gramsci tivesse uma deficiência física: a curvatura da sua espinha e baixa estatura resultante de uma tuberculose extrapulmonar que teve na infância. Este artigo examina a história desta fotografia e de que maneira ela foi adotada como a imagem aprovada de Gramsci e considera que o que estava em jogo removendo da memória oficial a condição de sua deficiência que é central para ele em sua própria identidade pessoal e política.

Virtual Network Computing (VNC) plays a significant role in advanced remote access by allowing users to remotely control another computer or virtual machine over a network connection, and applies to real-world entities. Virtual remote control is the ability to use software with a graphical user interface to remotely operate a computer or virtual machine. One of the key advantages of controlling a virtual remote is that it allows users to interact with the remote system as if they were physically present at the remote location. This research proposes a design of virtual mouse that relies on Hand Gesture Recognition using OpenCV and VNC. It tracks hand movements and recognizes the gestures to perform the mouse tasks. Hand gesture recognition technology uses computer vision algorithms and machine learning techniques to analyse and interpret human hand movements.

Overuse of antibiotics has the potentiall for irrational use. This is one of the factorss that cause resistances. WHO in the field of antimicrobial resistance:According to the Global Surveillance Report, Southeast Asia has the highest level of antimicrobial resistance in the world, especially against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (Ministry of Health, 2015). Results of the AMRIN (Antimicrobial Resistance in Indonesia) study conducted from 2000 to 2005 showed that approximately 43% of E. coli are resistant to various types of antibiotics, including:
ampicillin (34%), co-trimoxazole (29%), chloramphenicol (25%) (Minister of Health of the Republic, 2015). Irrational use is a major factor in high antibiotic resistance rates. Lack off publicc knowledges about antibiotics can affect attitudes and healths behaviorss, including irrationall use of antibiotics. Knowledge plays an important rolee in shaping beliefs and attitudess about certain behaviors, such as behavior when taking antibioticss. Education level is thought to have a significant impact on this behavior (Ivoryanto, 2017).

A intensa imigração venezuelana para Roraima tem impactado os serviços de saúde como um todo. Este estudo teve como objetivo analisar a satisfação dos imigrantes com o acesso e assistência hospitalares em Boa Vista, comparando as experiências nesses serviços com as vivenciadas no sistema de saúde venezuelano. Trata-se de um estudo qualitativo, aprovado por Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa, realizado com 23 imigrantes venezuelanos residentes no Brasil. O instrumento foi uma entrevista semiestruturada aliada à observação participante. A análise dos dados se baseou em Bardin e é fundamentada pela teoria da realização da expectativa. A situação do sistema público de saúde da Venezuela está em colapso, faltando materiais, profissionais e medicamentos. Existe alta satisfação com os serviços de saúde estudados, os quais em contexto brasileiro, mesmo quando não são expoentes de qualidade. Para os participantes, quase não há entraves nas experiências hospitalares, exceto o idioma e preconceito de nacionalidade. A elevada satisfação com os serviços se dá possivelmente por conta de baixas expectativas dos participantes em relação às experiências nos serviços de saúde. Este estudo foi o pioneiro nessa vertente e será precursor para futuras investigações e para (re)adequação dos serviços de saúde a essa nova realidade.

Published: July 2023

The growing use of Information Technology (IT) systems in businesses necessitates the hiring of auditors who have IT knowledge and abilities. An external auditor’s competence in IT ensures that the audit is run professionally and effectively. Consequently, the objective of this study was to ascertain the current state of IT knowledge among external auditors. This study followed a quantitative descriptive research design. Data was collected using a questionnaire, and analysed using descriptive statistics. A total of 62 external auditors from three small to medium-sized audit firms completed the questionnaire. The results reported in the study show that the respondents believed that the IT proficiency of external auditors is currently low, including the identification of IT technologies (cognitive technologies, data analytics, smart digital platforms, and blockchain systems) that are growing in importance for external auditors. The results of this study are important, as they provide insight into the perspectives of external auditors with regards to their IT knowledge and skill when conducting audits. As such, a number of recommendations are provided to audit firms, regulators, and professional accounting bodies.

The university population had to adapt to new ways of learning causing in them a strong emotional impact. Therefore, there is a need for an instrument with adequate psychometric properties to develop a profile of perceived stress. Objective: To demonstrate the psychometric properties of the EEP-10 Perceived Stress Scale and to characterize perceived stress according to sociodemographic profile in university students. Method: Instrumental and non-experimental design, sample of 820 university students from 16 to 42 years of age, probabilistic sampling. Results: The internal structure of the scale presents a good fit of the two-dimensional model with RMR= .036; AGFI= .985; NFI= .982, RFI= .976 and PNFI= .791, as well as factor loadings between .643 and .797. A reliability of .835 and .825 omega coefficient for each of the dimensions. In the General Distress dimension of perceived stress, it was found that the differences according to sociodemographic variables differed from null, gender (p=.000**), age (p=.003**), economic dependence (p=.001**), and the effect size of the differences was of small magnitude. Discussion and conclusions: The study showed adequate psychometric properties of the perceived stress scale and differences in perceived distress according to sex, age and economic dependence. However, no differences were found in coping capacity based on sociodemographic variables.

Depression is one of the most common life-threatening disorders among adolescents. Nowadays, cases of suicidal thoughts and attempts have become rampant among adolescents as a result of depression and some underlying factors. It is on this premise that this study examined some predatory factors on depression among adolescents.  There are several predicting factors but this study dwelled on three such factors which are academic performance, family, and peer pressure.  A Correlation research design was adopted for the study. The study population includes lecturers of six selected private universities in the Osun state of Nigeria and was randomly selected. The six selected universities were located in different geographical areas of the state. The instrument used for data collection was self-developed and has a reliability coefficient of 0.82. Four null hypotheses were formulated and tested at a 0.05 level of significance.  The hypotheses were analyzed using Pearson Product Moment Correlation. The result of the study shows that a significant relationship exists between the independent variables (academic performance, family, and peer pressure-related factors) and the dependent variable (depression symptoms). Based on the findings of the study, it is recommended among others that all tertiary institutions should have functioning counseling centers that are well equipped with professional counseling psychologists who could assist students through guidance services to enhance their academic performances as well handle peer pressures.

Published: July 2023

The digitalization of exports is becoming increasingly important in today's globalized economy, particularly in the automotive industry. This study identified legal barriers to the digitization of electric vehicle (EV) exports from Kazakhstan, a country that has recently started producing and exporting EVs. Using a Delphi method and explorative factor analysis, the study identified electronic signature laws, intellectual property protection for EV technology, cybersecurity and data privacy regulations, and compliance with national trade agreements as the main legal barriers to the digitalization of Kazakhstan’s EV exports. The findings indicate that these legal barriers are interrelated and describe one phenomenon, and they can significantly impede the digitalization of exports of EVs in Kazakhstan. This study provides policy recommendations for addressing these legal barriers to facilitate the digitalization of exports in Kazakhstan's EV industry. The study's contribution to the literature is the identification of legal barriers specific to Kazakhstan and the interrelatedness of these legal barriers, which can help policymakers develop targeted policies to support the digitalization of exports in Kazakhstan's EV industry.
