High Dimensional Datasets Optimization handling by Wrapper Sequential Feature Selection in Forward Mode - A Comparative Survey
Authors: Mishra Ravi Shankar
Published: September 2022

High-quality data might be difficult to be produced when there is a large quantity of information in a single educational dataset. Researchers in the field of educational data mining have recently begun to rely more and more on data mining methodologies in their investigations. However, instead of undertaking feature selection methods, many research investigations have focused on picking appropriate learning algorithms. Since these datasets are computationally complicated, they need a lot of computing time for categorization. This article examines the use of wrapper approaches for the purpose of managing high-dimensional datasets in order to pick appropriate features for a machine learning approach. This study then suggests a strategy for improving the quality of student or educational datasets. For future investigations, the suggested framework that utilizes filter and wrapper-based approaches may be used for many medical and industrial datasets.

Le céfidérocol
Authors: Dinh Aurélien , Massol Julien , Duran Clara , Bouchand Frédérique , Dortet Laurent
Published: September 2022

Le céfidérocol intraveineux commercialisé sous le nom de Fetcroja® est la première céphalosporine de type sidérophore mise sur le marché. Elle a été approuvée pour le traitement des infections sévère à Bacille Gram négatif (BGN) résistant lorsque les options thérapeutiques sont limitées selon l’HAS. En effet, in vitro, le céfidérocol est stable vis-à-vis des 4 types de β-lactamase de la classification d’Ambler, y compris les métallo-β-lactamases, et démontre une excellente activité vis-à-vis de la plupart des BGN, y compris les souches multi-résistantes.

Dans divers essais randomisés réalisés en double aveugle, le céfiderocol a montré une non- infériorité par rapport à l'imipenème/cilastatine pour le traitement des infections urinaires compliquées, et versus le méropénème au cours des pneumonies associées aux soins.

Au cours d'un essai s'intéressant uniquement aux pathogènes résistants aux carbapénèmes, le céfidérocol a montré une activité comparable au meilleur traitement disponible, mais un déséquilibre de mortalité dans le bras céfidérocol. Par ailleurs, le céfidérocol semble avoir une bonne tolérance et peu d'effets indésirables dans les essais randomisés.

Le céfidérocol est donc une nouvelle molécule attractive étant donné son spectre en particulier sur les BGN multi-résistants et représente une nouvelle option thérapeutique dans les situations complexes.

With the advent of the first Friends African Mission (hereafter FAM) station at Kaimosi, in 1902, Education was handy in winning more converts to this new religion. The women traditions and culture had first to be transformed, through acceptance of western cultural attributes. Consequently, FAM missionaries offered education opportunities of the sons and daughters of the first generation believers to enable them be employed in secular sectors such as medical services, education service, industrial and agricultural sector, as an approach for reinforcing evangelization and expanding their area of influence. It is due to this; the Friends Church’s secular policy, its formulation, implementation and impact on the education in the Luhya that is the subject of this study. Anecdotal evidence indicate members of the Friends Church are to found all over the country today. Unfortunately, the contributions of the daughters of the first and second generation adherents of F.A.M to the growth and transformation in education among the Luhya of old Vihiga district has not been realized. In recognition of this fact, the article addresses the pertinent issues Salome Nolega David found herself agitating for among the Luhya of western Kenya. Indeed, much of the material for the article was derived from unpublished theses, oral interviews and secondary sources which addressed the role of Nolega David among the Friends Church affiliates. Other sources included, written source of information on the Friends Church is the East African Yearly Meeting (hereafter EAYM) records preserved at Kaimosi and those from The Kenya National Archives (hereafter KNA).

Published: September 2022

The impact of election in any democratic setting remains a stronger pillar in which democracy is consolidated. The synergy between election and democracy is highly complementary. This notwithstanding, since Nigeria’s returned to political dispensation in 1999 after years of military autocratic regime, election management has been characterised with flaw and manipulations. Interestingly, the 2015 general elections marked a watershed in the annals of electoral administrations in Nigeria. The election was not only applauded by the domestic observers, interestingly, it also received positive remarks from notable international observers and monitors. Nevertheless, the momentum of positivism of Nigeria’s electioneering politics was drawn back with the dynamics of the 2019 general elections. In lieu of this, this study analyses the conduct of the 2015 and 2019 elections vis a vis democratic consolidation in Nigeria, and tried to outlined the prospects to a more credible election in 2023. The study embraces ‘Structural Functionalism’ as a theoretical underpinning. The study adopts qualitative method in its conceptual analysis. With an explicit analysis of the two important elections, the study infers that Nigeria’s electoral system is yet to attain the ‘huruhuru’. The paper suggests first, the implementation of the Iwu’s Committee Report of 2008. Secondly, a robust electoral body that enjoys cooperation of other relevant stakeholders in the administration of free and credible elections in Nigeria. Thirdly, the study also urges all players involved to respect the dictates of electoral laws and any violator (s) deserve stringent punishment to serve as deterrent.

Published: September 2022

Environmental politics includes the choices the leaders had to make on the gains from environmental resources exploitation and the preservation of those resources for the future generations; as well as their decision and policies on the protection of the human environment and its remediation in occasions of pollutions. The basic requirements for the enforcement of environmental rights and claims in Nigeria had not been understood by the many lays and jurists alike. The Courts are making it difficult for a robust jurisprudence in the field of enforcement especially when the politics of economic gains are preferred to the prevention of genocide by the executive arm of the federal government. The fears of the collapse of the nation’s economy which is largely dependent on oil and gas top priority in the debate for environmental protection against the gains of exploration and exploitation of oil and gas in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. This paper discussed Environmental politics involves the evolution of environmental movement and parties; public policies analysis on environment at all levels of governance: individuals, local, national and international; ideas generated by the various movement and organisations; and, salient environmental issues. It tends to balance the activities of government with environmental policies available against conservation, protection and remediation issues as raised by environmental movements and organisations. The primary concerns for environmental politics are: the irreversibility or diminution of the earth’s life support systems; the consequences of development: ever-increasing need for materials and non-renewable energy sources as means of satisfying public needs or resolving (and or avoiding) conflicts; and, the injustice of uneven distribution of environmental benefits and harm. It examined how sections 104 (1) & 107 of the Petroleum Industry Act 2021 and section 3 of the Associated Gas Re-Injection Act 1979 (for the yet to be converted licence or lease tenures) on one hand are genocidal to the Niger Delta environment and, whether the right to life includes right to unpolluted environment. Critical detailed analyses of municipal and international law provisions on safe environment were examined. The findings of this paper were that development can thrive in line with nature and economic development goals with flare permits on our petroleum laws.

Diglossia and Arabic Literacy: From Research to Practice
Authors: Hashem Rabab
Published: September 2022

Arabic-speaking children acquire literacy in a diglossic manner in which the variety of language engaged for reading and writing at school—referred to here as literary Arabic (LA)—differs from the variety they engage when speaking at home. Literacy acquisition in such a context necessitates teaching practices take into consideration the differences between spoken and literary varieties of language to assist children to bridge the gap between them. This study explores how Saudi teachers of kindergarten-level students perceive the effect of diglossia on the initial stages of literacy acquisition by their students, and which practices they follow to minimize its effect. The study participants took part in a focus group in which they shared their experiences of teaching literacy to Saudi kindergarten students, and reflected on their perceptions and practices as kindergarten teachers. Overall, the participants showed an awareness of how diglossia could generally affect literacy acquisition, as well as an awareness of how different spoken Arabic dialects work with and against LA to varying degrees, causing fluctuations in the diglossic effect across spoken varieties. In their context, however, teachers seemed to find children at a lesser disadvantage and would, therefore, prioritize remediating the challenges children experience as a result of orthographic characteristics of Arabic over the challenges posed by diglossia. Teachers indicated that they still follow certain practices to increase children’s exposure to LA and reinforce their LA knowledge, but without pinpointing any specific diglossia-based instructions—interestingly, they believe this could compromise the orthographic-based instructions they believed essential. Such reflections are discussed in light of the current empirical investigations of Arabic literacy and diglossia and the pedagogical practices they suggest.
