Published: July 2019

The modern stage of global financial market development is marked by intensive innovation. One of its peculiarities is quick formation and improvement of activities carried out by international regional development banks.The establishment of international regional development banks happened in the 1960s. During this period, development banks were founded in the countries and regions that got free from colonial dependency.At present, concerted efforts are observed in the sector of international regional development banks.During half a century of the activities, the mission, goals and operating principles of international regional development banks have changed conspicuously. Now their priorities are to finance long-term programs of regional infrastructure development, to invest in global projects and to lend socio-economic development programs.Along with earlier established international regional development banks, new institutions are also created. The primary reason for the establishment of these financial institutions is a regionâ€™s need to draw global investment.One of the newly established regional development banks is the Eurasian Development Bank that substantially differs from banks in operation. The Bankâ€™s primary specific features are the parity compliance with the interests of the regionâ€™s countries and the attainment of socio-economic tasks related to the regionâ€™s development.Â Â

Published: July 2019

During its formation and improvement, cattle acquired a number of biological and economic-useful qualities, which allowed identifying separate groups of animals with high productivity and productive longevity. One of the main criteria for cow selection for further breeding is the quantity and quality of dairy products [4]. Profitability of dairy farming largely depends on both milk yield and theÂ reproductive ability of cows. Troubled calving and subsequent diseases and complications affect the state of the animal organism; preservation and restoration of the health of a cow after troubled calving require considerable expenses. This research was aimed at examining milk production in cows with easy and troubled calving. To achieve this goal, in the studied number of cows with easy and troubled calving, the authors analyzed the following parameters: milk yield during the first lactation, fat and protein mass fraction, the amount of milk fat and milk protein; milk productivity was also studied, depending on the age at first insemination and theÂ duration of the service period. It has been found that milk yields in the cows with troubled calving were higher than in the cows with easy calving. The influence of the age at the first fruitful insemination on the further milk productivity has been determined: the highest yields were obtained from the cows with the age at the first fruitful insemination in theÂ interval between 15.1 and 17.0 months. The maximum milk yields during the first lactation â€“ 6,206 kg - were observed in the cows with relatively short service period (61 to 90 days).Â Â

Authors: Igorevich Fomin Sergey , Viktorovich Ivanov Vladimir , Ngoc Hoan Do
Published: July 2019

The purpose of the construction of a coal open-cut should be an achievement in the shortest possible time of an access to the mineral deposit and creation of favorable mining conditions for achieving the specified performance. In the con-text of investment restrictions during the construction of the mine, the volume of preparatory work should be minimized (preparation of the surface of the quarry field, organization of the field drainage system, creation of a system of tracks, construction of installation sites, power lines, electrical substations, warehouses, and other infrastructure facilities).The main reason for the failure to comply with the deadlines for the commissioning of coal mines is the un-preparedness of the mining front, so the priority in determining the sequence of putting infrastructure facilities into operation is their influence on the development of the mining front.Justification of the sequence of input of mining sites in the development should be carried out based on the analysis of mining and geological conditions, as well as take into account the location of mining sites relative to the systems of transport and energy communications.The creation of the necessary infrastructure should be carried out in stages with the transfer of costs to the later periods of operation of the mine, when conditions for reinvestment from the company's profits will be created.Â Â

Authors: Borisovich Glazyrin Andrei , Viktorovna Bazunova Marina , Petrovich Zakharov Vadim , Mikhailovna Zakharova Elena
Published: July 2019

This article discusses the influence of conditions of secondary polypropylene recycling in the presence of vegetable fillers on thermal properties of polymer composites. Secondary polypropylene was recycled by the following methods: extrusion using two-screw extruder, agitation in mixing chamber of laboratory station (plastograph), die casting. Polymer composites on the basis of secondary polypropylene in the presence of vegetable fillers (wood dust, rice hulls, buckwheat hulls, and chaff) were produced by extrusion. Thermal properties of polymer composites were determined by thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry. It is established that recycling of secondary polypropylene by various methods does not change melting and crystallization points of polymer phase but is accompanied with decrease in melting enthalpy (by 9-11%) and crystallinity (by 5.6-6.5 %). The polypropylene samples obtained by recycling are characterized by lower thermal stability in air in comparison with initial polypropylene. Addition of vegetable filler to polymer composite on the basis of secondary polypropylene significantly decreases (by 1.13-1.48 times) melting enthalpy and crystallization of polymer phase. The compounds are characterized by relatively high thermal stability: their initial destruction points are close to parameters of initial polymer.Â Â

Authors: K. Kalichkin V. , I. Pavlova A. , F. Petrov A. , A. Smolyakov V.
Published: July 2019

The article proposes the methodology for the automated classification of uplands using Geographic Information System (GIS) and Neural Expert System (NES). Quantitative indicators of topography are used as the basis of the proposed classification. A database consisting of topographic, soil, and land use maps was created using ArcGIS 10 geographic information system. A topologically correct digital elevation model (DEM) was created by the ANUDEM interpolation method. The DEM contains the following maps: hypsometric, steepness and slopes exposure, plan, profile, common curvature of the ground surface, and cumulative runoff maps. The boundaries of elementary surfaces (ES), which are homogeneous morphological formations, are established. Parameters characterizing the Stream Power Index (SPI) are taken into account. The essence of the proposed classification consists in attributing of ES to a certain group of lands based on aggregate of features. To do this, partial scales were created, containing indicators of topography, soil cover, land drainage conditions, as well as the degree of erosion development. The authors formed knowledge base for traning the NES using GIS database and partial scales of estimates. Teaching of neural network was carried out. The classification and topology of land was carried out by means of the NES. The uplands are distributed in flat and slightly convex areas. They are characterized by the following indicators: the curvature of the ground surface: plan curvature (0 â€“ 0.03), profile curvature (0 â€“ 0.15), common curvature (0 â€“ 0.22); slope angles (less than 1.5Ð¾); horizontal dissection in elevation (less than 0.5 km/km2), vertical dissection (less than 5 m); and SPI (from -13.80 to -6.47). Electronic map of uplands of LLC Â«SalairÂ» land-use area was created in the ArcGIS 10 environment.Â Â

Authors: Aleksandrovich Larchikov Andrey , Viktorovich Larchikov Aleksandr , Borisovich Rygalin Dmitry
Published: July 2019

One of the main energy saving objectives is to find methods for metering individual heat consumption in each apartment of an apartment building. Achievements in the area of microprocessor devices made it possible to create a new type of measurement and control systems for monitoring and metering energy resources. Newly developed heat meters are the ground for fundamental changes in energy saving and energy efficiency. Apartment buildings are heated by various hot water distribution systems, for which it is not always possible to use conventional heat meters. The ambiguity related to the parameters of heat meters can adversely affect the estimation of heat consumption by each apartment in an apartment building. This paper is aimed at analyzing a new contact temperature measurement method and means used to create a system for heat monitoring and metering in an apartment building. The developed system can be used to meter energy resources of facilities distributed in a specific area, with geographic referencing to each facility. This makes it possible to remotely monitor heat energy consumption, which makes the energy consumption control system much more transparent and ensures public control. The system gathers data from a large number of users, processes data in real time and promptly responds to usersâ€™ requests based on recent developments in information technology. An important advantage of the developed system is that it can be used to anticipate emergency situations taking into account various factors, such as weather conditions and the age of buildings. Due to all of the above, the system can be used in the future not only in Russia but also abroad.Â

Published: July 2019

The article presents the results of years of research conducted in order to establish the optimal parameters of agrophysical soil properties with different ways of its treatment in the agrotechnologies of row crop production. The studies were conducted on the following soil treatment systems: plowing the soil to a depth of 25-27 cm (at a stretch (control); chisel soil treatment to a depth of 38-40 cm (at a stretch); surface treatment of the soil to a depth of 10-12 cm (at a stretch); and combined soil treatment system. The study demonstrated the typical relationship between the structure and density of the compact chernozem, different for the seed and the underlying layers. The parameters of the agrophysical indices of the compact chernozem, which are actually attainable over the arable layer and favorable for tilled field crops, have been theoretically justified and experimentally confirmed.It has been found that for compact chernozem with high and persistent water stability (more than 68%) of the soil structure, unfavorable agrophysical indices are characteristic, sharply differentiated according to its layers: 1) the amount of blocky soil suite (structural aggregates of more than 10.0 mm) can reach 55% in the upper and 90% in the underlying layers of the arable layer; 2) the density of the arable layer of the soil is reduced to 0.94 g/cm3, while in the 15-25 cm and 30-40 cm layers it increases to 1.34 g/cm3.A correlation has been found between the density and share of the blocky fraction, negative in the 0-10 cm soil layer, and positive in the deeper layers. With an increase in the share of the blocky fraction, the upper layer of the soil acquires a loose structure (total porosity of above 60%), and the lower layers are compacted with a decrease in porosity to 50%.Â Â

Published: July 2019

This paper presents multi-instance (MI) image classification for cancer diagnosis using statistical mapping Support Vector Machine (SVM). The existing MI image classification is limited to focusing on standard multi-instance classification (MIC) assumption, but do not generalize to the whole range of MI data and do not fully utilize the power of conventional SVM. The standard MIC assumption labelled a bag of image as positive if there is at least one instance in it which is positive. Unfortunately, this assumption is not applicable if there is less information about abnormal instances provided in a bag. Therefore, the paper aims to propose conventional SVM that utilized the basic statistical mapping to form a bag vector of instances in order to classify MI images and give the benefit of the automated image diagnostic procedure. Numerical tests examine the benefit of instancesâ€™ features transformation to be a vector of bag representation using mean and covariance mapping to Linear-SVM, Square-SVM and Cube-SVM. The experiments used a secondary dataset. The numerical dataset extracted breast histopathology image of 58 patients, which contains 708 features and 2002 instances. The result obtained shows that the proposed SVM can achieve 100% sensitivity after utilizing the covariance mapping with Square-SVM. It means the classification task able to detect the malignant class. In conclusion, the conventional SVM has great potential to improve medical diagnostic procedure using MI image, particularly for cancer diagnostic after adapting statistical features transformation.Â Â Â

Published: July 2019

The article gives a brief analysis of methods and algorithms for the transformation of spatial rectangular coordinates to curvilinear coordinates - geodetic latitude, geodetic longitude, geodetic height. Two algorithms for solving the equation for determining longitude are considered. Three formulas used to calculate the height are analyzed, with an estimate of their errors due to the approximate latitude. The shortcomings of mathematical solutions to these problems are revealed. A study of different approaches and methods for solving the transcendental equation for determining the latitude, based on the theory of separation of the root of the equation, is performed. Using this technique, iterative processes were performed to calculate the reduced latitude , using trigonometric identities, by introducing an auxiliary angle and transforming it to an algebraic quartic equation, which Borkowski solves by the Ferrari's method. The determination of the root isolation interval allowed using the chord method (proportional parts) to determine the latitude. In all cases, estimates of the convergence of the iterative processes that facilitate the comparative analysis of the proposed solutions are obtained. By further decreasing the separation interval of the root, the accuracy of the non-iterative determination of the latitude is improved by the Newton method.Â Â
Object Detection in The Image Using the Method of Selecting Significant Structures
Authors: Mokshin Vladimir , Sayfudinov Ildar , Yudina Svetlana , Sharnin Leonid
Published: July 2019

The approach to image segmentation is reviewed in the article. The method of highlighting significant contours in the image is reviewed. Some structures in the image attract attention more than others due to certain distinctive properties. The article reviews the approach of highlighting significant structures in the image representing the areas of candidates identifying the object in the video frame for mobile platforms. For example, such shapes can be smoother, longer and closed. Such structures are called significant. It would be expedient to use only these significant structures to increase the speed of image recognition by computer vision methods focused on the contour selection. This approach allocates the computing resources only to significant structures, thus reducing the total computation time. Since the image consists of many pixels and links between them, which are called edges, significant structures can be measured. The article presents an approach to measuring the structure significance that largely coincides with human perception. Some image structures attract our attention without the need for a systematic scan of the entire image. In most cases, this significance represents the structure properties as a whole, i.e. parts of the structure cannot be isolated. This article presents a measure of significance based on the measurement of length and curvature. The measure highlights structures characteristic of human perception, and they often correspond to objects of interest in the image. A method is presented for calculating significance using an iterative scheme combined into a single local network for processing elements. The optimization approach to represent a processed image highlighting significant locations is used in the network.Â Â

Increased number of threats to user interface of navigation signals, mainly in the form of suppression of navigation signals by jamming as well as navigation signal spoofing by false signals, assumes development of counter measures including improvement of structure security of navigation signals on the basis of stochastic use of code sequences which are ranging codes. This article proves the required number of unique discrete code sequences which can improve structure security of navigation signal in global navigation satellite system upon their stochastic use. Properties of discrete quasi-orthogonal code sequences are estimated which are used and proposed for use in global navigation satellite systems with channel code division, they are compared with optimum values of code balancing, number of element series and lower bounds of maximum lateral peaks of aperiodic auto-correlation function and maximum peaks of aperiodic mutual-correlation function. The experimental results show that the minimum values of the considered correlation functions of discrete quasi-orthogonal code sequences of known global navigation satellite systems exceed the lower bound by 3â€“6 times. The performances of code balancing and element series of discrete quasi-orthogonal code sequences of the known global navigation satellite systems satisfy in average the allowable intervals. The number of source lines of discrete quasi-orthogonal code sequences of the known global navigation satellite systems is significantly lower than their umber required for improvement of structure security of navigation signal based on their stochastic use. On the basis of the revealed drawbacks of the known discrete quasi-orthogonal code sequences, the necessity to develop new methods is substantiated allowing to obtain their required number together with statistic properties comparable with the best values of discrete quasi-orthogonal code sequences applied as navigation signals in global navigation satellite systems.Â Â

The article deals with the negative effect of the prolonged irrigation on the contents and quality of humus, and plant nutrientsâ€™ stock in theÂ soil. TheÂ research was aimed at studying the nature and regularities of theÂ transformation of organic matter (humus) and nutrients in the dark chestnut soil of dry steppe zone in the Volga region in the process of irrigation over half aÂ century long. Field and laboratory experiments, as well as theoretical methods, such as mathematical statistics were used for studying the soil agrochemical properties. The research has shown that humus mineralization in irrigated soils is more pronounced, compared to nonirrigated soils, dehumification increases with increasing the period of irrigation and intensification of agriculture; the content and stock of humus decreases with irrigation, and is accompanied by the negative changes in its qualitative composition. The article describes the reasons for dehumification and negative changes in the qualitative composition of humus in the dark chestnut soils: deficient nitrogen balance due to insufficient use of nitrogen fertilizers, which resulted in the destruction of the organic matter in the soil, increased share of tilled crops in the crop structure, absence of nitrogen-fixing ability in alfalfa due to significant soil compaction, and insufficient introduction of organic fertilizers. The found peculiarities of dehumification and reduction of nutrients availability in the soil, which are the most dangerous degradation processes in the soils of the region that reduce the efficiency of irrigated agriculture, are required for developing substantiated solutions for preventing dehumification, restoring the fertility of irrigated soils, and reducing deficiency of foodstuffs in arid regions.Â Â

Export of medicines is one of the most profitable businesses, which attracts the attention of an increasing number of producers. The international medicinesâ€™ trade largely depends on national or regional regulatory mechanisms. In addition, the export terms and conditions differ for various categories of medicines. Innovative drugs account for the main share of the global medicinesâ€™ export. Therefore, export of innovative drugs developed in Russia to advanced countries is the most economically profitable direction. Export of generic drugs can bring considerable revenue to the producer and the state, but import substitution by releasing generic drugs weakens the innovative direction of studies and production. The import substitution policy targets manufacturers of medicines to produce generic drugs, as well as products intended, mainly or exclusively, for sale within the country. One of the ways to improve the efficiency of the entire pharmaceutical sector is international cooperation.Â Â

Introduction. Changes that take place in different spheres of life in Russia (economic, political, social, cultural) determine new requirements to the goals, values, functions of education in providing the development and self-realization of students. A graduate of a modern school should master a complex of information and research skills, and have critical and creative thinking. Research methodology. The orientation of education towards the growth of a student as a person, bearer of certain individual peculiarities, and activity subject may be of use only if an effective strategy of pedagogic work is developed. Such a strategy should be scientifically grounded on the basic principles of modern approaches implemented in pedagogy and psychology: humanistic, personality-, activity- and competence-oriented. Research results. Four spheres of a pedagogueâ€™s professional activity in an innovative educational environment have been distinguished: sphere of analysis, synthesis and mastering pioneering pedagogic experience; sphere of popularization and initial practical use of pioneering pedagogic experience and advanced developments; sphere of the improvement of professional skills and realization of creative potential of a teacher; sphere of innovative processes in the system of education. Discussion. The essence of a pedagogueâ€™s research activity is conditioned by the functions, which are based on the following factors: optimization of the teaching and educational process; specifically, structured controlled cognitive process; processes of self-improvement, self-instruction and self-education, self-realization; mastering professional pedagogic activity of a new level. Conclusion. Four levels of the development of a teacherâ€™s research competences have been distinguished: basic, empiric (local and initiative), productive (tactical), and constructive (strategic).Â Â

This study was concerned with the residentsâ€™ health awareness of their behavior which affected indoor air quality (IAQ) in high rise building in Jakarta, Indonesia.Â  This analysis was aimed to describe the difference between the strength of the influence of residentsâ€™ dimension to IAQ in unit with knowledge variable and that of without knowledge variable. The behavior based on health knowledge became the parameter of health awareness. The descriptive result indicated that the residents in Rusunami high rise building were well-educated people but not all of them had good behavior.Â  Participants whose occupations are related to health tended to take care of indoor air quality better than those from other occupation.

A Flash Flood Early Warning System for Rural Kenya: A Pilot Study
Authors: Ir Vinesh Thiruchelvam Prof. Dr. , Stella Nyambura Mbau
Published: July 2019

The cost of climate change has increased phenomenally in recent years. Therefore, understanding climate change and its impacts, that are likely to get worse and worse into the future, gives us the ability to predict scenarios and plan for them. Flash floods, which are a common result of climate change, follow increased precipitation which then increases risk and associated vulnerability due to the unpredictable rainfall patterns. Developing countries suffer grave consequences in the event that weather disasters strike because they have the least adaptive capacity. At the equator where the hot days are hotter and winds carrying rainfall move faster, Kenyaâ€™s Tana River County is noted for its vulnerability towards flash floods. Additionally, this county and others that are classified as rural areas in Kenya do not receive short term early warnings for floods. This county was therefore selected as the study area for its vulnerability. The aim of the study is therefore to propose a flash flood early warning system framework that delivers short term early warnings. Using questionnaires, information about the existing warning system will be collected and analyzed using SPSS. The results will be used to interpret the relationships between variables of the study, with a particular interest in the moderation effect in order to confirm that the existing system can be modified; that is, if the moderation effect is confirmed.
