Authors: Rachmat Antonius , Lukito Yuan
Published: October 2018

Crowdsourced Labelling is a large scale data labelling process, solicits a large group of people to label the data, usually via Internet.  This paper discusses about design and implementation of Web-based Crowdsourced Labelling.  Supervised learning classification methods need labelled training data for its training phase.  Unfortunately, in many cases, there aren’t any already available labelled training data.  Large scale data labelling is a tedious and time consuming work.  This research develops a web-based crowdsourced labelling which able to solicit a large group of people as data labeler to speed up the data labelling process.  This system also allows multiple labeler for every data.  The final label is calculated using Weighted Majority Voting method.  We grabbed and used Facebook comments from the two candidates’ Facebook Page of 2014 Indonesian Presidential Election as testing data.  Based on the testing conducted we can conclude that this system is able to handle all the labelling steps well and able to handle collision occurred when multiple labeler labelling a same data in the same time. The system successfully produces final label in CSV format, which can be processed further with many sentiment analysis tools or machine learning tools.

Index Terms - Crowdsources labeling, web-based system, supervised learning, weighted majority voting.

Contemporary Publics, Twitter and the Story of PR: Exploring Corporate Interventions to Promote “Clean Coal” in Australia
Authors: Demetrious Kristin
Published: October 2018

Peabody Energy’s Advanced Energy for Life (AEFL) comprehensive global public relations (PR) campaign promoted the idea of clean coal. It is part of a series of efforts deployed by the coal industry since the 1980s to influence the public’s willingness to accept or tolerate its processes and products. This paper will develop a greater understanding of how contemporary publics in a 21st century context react when targeted by the global PR industry. Specifically, it looks at the response to the AEFL campaign in Australia and in particular examines Twitter provocations from January 2014 to January 2016. In doing so, this paper contributes to our understanding of how communicative dynamics such as Twitter and PR may affect public debates. This is critical to helping resolve key policy settings around future energy usage and emissions reduction.
Coming Together Around Hashtags: Exploring the Formation of Digital Emergent Citizen Groups
Authors: Pyle Andrew S , Boatwright Brandon
Published: October 2018

It has been well established that during and after crisis or emergency events, groups of citizens come together to help one another, solve problems, and manage recovery or cleanup. These groups are called emergent citizen groups. They form organically and often disband when the emergency is managed. This study proposes that similar types of groups now form in digital spaces during and after crises. The authors studied conversation on Twitter that used the hashtag “#PrayforUSC” after the murder-suicide that took place at the University of South Carolina in 2015. Initial results indicate that hashtags can function as focal points or catalysts for digital emergent citizen groups. More research should be done to determine whether and how these groups form, function, and disperse.
Chemical analyzes and antioxidant activities of essential oils of four wild Mentha species growing in the Tokat and its districts
Authors: Ozen Tevfik , Telci Isa , Gul Fatih , Demirtas Ibrahim
Published: October 2018

The current work evaluated the chemical compositions of the essential oils (EOs) extracted from Mentha longifolia subsp. typhoides (Briq.)
Harley var. typhoides PH. Davis, Mentha spicate
L. subsp.spicata, Mentha longifolia (L.) Hudson subsp.longifolia and Mentha villoso nervata Opiz from gowning in the
different locations of Tokat. The antioxidant activities
of EOs were tested using total antioxidant activity, reducing power,
inhibition of lipid peroxidation, metal chelating, H2O2, DPPH˙ and O2˙- scavenging
activities. The chemical compositions of EOs were determined by GC and GC-MS.
Significant differences were recorded between the percentages of many
constituents depending on the geographical. The most important components were
identified consecutively: linalool (nd-62.80%), menthone (0.31-60.81%),
pulegone (nd-21.52%), isomenthone (nd-30.15%) and piperitoneoxide (nd-68.92%).
The inhibition of lipid peroxidation, O2˙- and H2O2
scavenging activities of the EOs were very effective but their reduction
power values were low. The
results obtained validate that EOs of four Mentha species possess a source of antioxidant potential for
medicinal and foods.

Fiscal policy as a source of economic growth
Authors: Kudrin A. , Knobel A.
Published: October 2018

We investigate mechanisms of budget expenditures structure influence on economic development. General government fiscal multiplier in various functional directions is estimated. We show that productive expenses in general have bigger multiplicative effect on GDP, than unproductive ones. By means of multiplicative effects models estimation for various functional items we calculate potential effect on economic growth of the budget maneuver in favor of productive expenses and the implemented effect of the recent years budget expenditures structure change. We show that resources redistribution from non-productive expenses to productive ones could increase long-term rates of economic growth approximately by 0,8 p. p. per year. On the contrary, the budget expenditures structure change observed during 2011-2017 has a negative impact on average annual rates of economic growth about 0,3 p. p. per year.

Searching for a New Growth Model
Authors: Idrisov G. , Mau V. , Bozhechkova A.
Published: October 2018

The article discusses modern concepts and drivers that underlie economic growth models which serve as a basis for making economic and political decisions. Drawing on the fundamental economic growth mechanisms, the authors describe the differences among three competing Russian mid-term development strategies. They argue that some of the fundamental mechanisms seem to stop working (partly due to secular stagnation). Formulating the shapes of a new economic-investment model, the authors offer three hypotheses about new growth mechanisms that should be taken into account when building up an effective development strategy for our country.

Implications of higher retirement age for the labor market
Authors: Ivanova M. , Balaev A. , Gurvich E.
Published: October 2018

The paper considers the impact of the increase in retirement age on labor supply and economic growth. Combining own estimates of labor participation and demographic projections by the Rosstat, the authors predict marked fall in the labor force (by 5.6 million persons over 2016-2030). Labor demand is also going down but to a lesser degree. If vigorous measures are not implemented, the labor force shortage will reach 6% of the labor force by the period end, thus restraining economic growth. Even rapid and ambitious increase in the retirement age (by 1 year each year to 65 years for both men and women) can only partially mitigate the adverse consequences of demographic trends.

A new classification of donor regions is presented, within which a group of regions that have lost their ‘donor’ status during the last decade has been studied separately. The paper also discusses the possible ways of increasing the financial autonomy of the regions and redistribution of taxes between federal and regional levels of the budget system in order to increase the number of donor regions.
Ex-post evaluation of regional bureaucracy development programs
Authors: Borshchevskiy G. A.
Published: October 2018

We study the influence of the program-targeted planning mechanisms on the civil service efficiency in the subjects of the Russian Federation. Our hypothesis is that the criteria for assessing effectiveness of civil service development programs are to increase the efficiency of its functioning and focus on solving problems of socio-economic development. The research methodology is based on the generalization of statistical data on the regions of the Central Federal District (CFD) of Russia in 2003-2016, and on the construction of some indices for civil service and socio-economic development. We have analyzed 67 programs of civil service development. Due to lack of financing Russian regions are forced to abandon many measures of the civil service reform. The average values of efficiency coefficients do not reach 30%, which indicates the existence of significant reserves for increasing the civil service development programs effectiveness. We have revealed that a crisis condition of socio-economic development resists the effective civil service development in the regions. At the same time, the region’s advanced positions in the economy do not automatically lead to a comparable high level of civil service development. This conclusion is important for extrapolating to regions of other federal districts and to the federal level in Russia.

It covers the interactions of behavioural economics with experimental and empirical research, and the use of behavioural models to explain various phenomena of individual decisions, group interactions, financial market behaviour etc. Specific attention is paid to the practice of behavioural “nudging” and its methodological foundations (libertarian paternalism), as well as the role and place of behavioural research in modern economics in general.
Who was Nikolai Sieber? Contexts of intellectual biography
Authors: Raskov D. E.
Published: October 2018

The article deals with the rethinking of the contexts of intellectual biography of Nikolai Ivanovich Sieber (1844-1888) known as a Russian Marxist and the classical political economist. Three such contexts of collective practices, which give us broader understanding of his role and place are in the focus of the paper: university work and life, scientific travels abroad and the relationships and networks around publishing. On the base of secondary literature and new archival sources the author reveals the meaning of these institutions reconstructing the networks and the circle of Sieber. The author shows that Sieber had a large and diverse network in scientific and publishing activities, but as a representative of Russian cosmopolitan intellectual elite could not be judged in too narrow terms of national or revolutionary movements.

World energy: Myths of the past and lessons of the future
Authors: Bashmakov I. A.
Published: October 2018

The analysis of recent trends in the world energy development and of long-term energy development projections helps dispel 10 myths that have been viewed as copybook maxims, yet now are a barrier to forming an adequate vision of the future and effective development strategies. Many of these myths are rooted in the inability to see how the ‘small on small scale’ becomes ‘big on big scale’ , and vice versa. Projection horizon to 2050 allows to see these metamorphoses, formulate the ‘lessons of the future’ for Russia’s economic development, and to show why Russia needs to change its economic model and switch to low-carbon development path.

Demographic brakes of the economy
Authors: Vishnevsky A. G. , Scherbakova E. M.
Published: October 2018

The article examines the features of the newest stage of the demographic evolution of Russia against the backdrop of other countries at similar stages of the demographic transition. It is shown that until recently long-term demographic trends favored Russia’s economic development, but now the country is entering a long period of unfavorable demographic changes for its economy. The cessation of growth of the Russian population, the reduction in the working-age population and its aging, and the increase in the dependency ratio will have a deterrent effect on economic development and at the same time make it more difficult to solve social problems. In particular, these factors will create greater problems for the pension system for people older than working age. The issue of using the migration resource to mitigate the negative consequences of demographic changes is discussed.
Analysis of the economic dynamics of the US, the USSR and Russia with the help of the SMR-model
Authors: Mayevsky V. I. , Malkov S. Yu. , Rubinstein A. A.
Published: October 2018

The Shifting Mode of Reproduction (SMR) model is used as a tool for analyzing some of the dynamic processes inherent in the USA in 1947—2010, the USSR in 1961—1990, and modern Russia in 1992—2016. In particular, the model has not only recorded a well-known fact of increasing inefficiency of fixed assets in the USSR, but also helped establish the main causes of this phenomenon. The model has been confirmed both by the fact of surplus savings growth at the hands of the population in the last years of the existence of the USSR, and the fact of the collapse of these savings in Russia in 1992—1994. Finally, using the SMR-model it is shown that despite serious difficulties in 2009—2015 the process of increasing the share of young fixed capital in the Russian economy has been identified, which indicates the beginning of qualitative changes in its structure.
Analysis of Russian firms’ TFP growth in 2009—2015
Authors: Bessonova E. V.
Published: October 2018

We study TFP growth in Russia in 2009—2015 using firm-level data. Our results reveal that the productivity gap between technology leaders and lagging firms accumulated over the observed period. Technology diffusion from leaders to less efficient firms in Russia stays rather limited resulting in relatively low average TFP growth. The market share of less efficient firms shrinks over time but they do not exit the market. As a result, scarce recourses stay locked in inefficient production.

Corruption as “one‑stop‑shop”: theory and empirical analysis
Authors: Kochnev R. Yu. , Polishchuk L. I. , Rubin A. Yu.
Published: October 2018

We present the comparative analysis of the impact of centralized and decentralized corruption for private sector. Theory and empirical evidence point out to a “double jeopardy” of decentralized corruption which increases the burden of corruption upon private firms and weakens the incentives of bureaucracy to provide public production inputs, such as infrastructure. These outcomes are produced by simultaneous free-riding and the tragedy of the commons effects. The empirical part of the paper utilizes data of the Business Environment and Enterprise Performance project.

Precision agriculture (PA) involves the management of agricultural fields including spatial information of soil properties derived from apparent electrical conductivity (ECa) measurements. While this approach is gaining much attention in agricultural management, farmed podzolic soils are under-represented in the relevant literature. This study: (i) established the relationship between ECa and soil moisture content (SMC) measured using time domain reflectometry (TDR); and (ii) evaluated the estimated SMC with ECa measurements obtained with two electromagnetic induction (EMI) sensors, i.e., multi-coil and multi-frequency, using TDR measured SMC. Measurements were taken on several plots at Pynn’s Brook Research Station, Pasadena, Newfoundland, Canada. The means of ECa measurements were calculated for the same sampling location in each plot. The linear regression models generated for SMC using the CMD-MINIEXPLORER were statistically significant with the highest R2 of 0.79 and the lowest RMSE (root mean square error) of 0.015 m3 m−3 but were not significant for GEM-2 with the lowest R2 of 0.17 and RMSE of 0.045 m3 m−3; this was due to the difference in the depth of investigation between the two EMI sensors. The validation of the SMC regression models for the two EMI sensors produced the highest R2 = 0.54 with the lowest RMSE prediction = 0.031 m3 m−3 given by CMD-MINIEXPLORER. The result demonstrated that the CMD-MINIEXPLORER based measurements better predicted shallow SMC, while deeper SMC was better predicted by GEM-2 measurements. In addition, the ECa measurements obtained through either multi-coil or multi-frequency sensors have the potential to be successfully employed for SMC mapping at the field scale.

Despite the increasing interest in the welfare of animals during transport, very little is known on the response of local pig breeds to the transport procedures. This study aims to compare the effect of short journey on behaviour, blood parameters, and meat quality traits in 51 Apulo-Calabrese and 52 crossbreed [Duroc × (Landrace × Large White)] pigs. All the animals were blood sampled five days before delivery (basal condition) and at exsanguination for the analysis of creatine kinase, cortisol, glucose, lactate, albumin, albumin/globulin, total protein, urea, creatinine, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphate, sodium, and potassium. Post mortem pH, color, drip loss, cooking loss, and Warner-Bratzler shear force were measured at different times in longissimus thoracis samples. Univariate and multivariate analyses showed that glucose, albumin/globulin, urea, and AST at exsanguination were influenced by the genetic type. Apulo-Calabrese showed the highest increase in blood values of lactate, creatinine, sodium and potassium after the short distance transport. Behavioural occurrences were similar in both genetic types during unloading and lairage. Small differences were observed for meat quality although significantly higher a* and lower L* were found in Apulo-Calabrese pigs, showing meat with a deeper red colour than crossbreeds.
Different Soil Particle-Size Classification Systems for Calculating Volume Fractal Dimension—A Case Study of Pinus sylvestris var. Mongolica in Mu Us Sandy Land, China

Characterizing changes in the soil particle-size distributions (PSD) are a major issue in environmental research because it has a great impact on soil properties, soil management, and desertification. To date, the use of soil volume fractal dimension (D) is a feasible approach to describe PSD, and its calculation is mainly dependent on subdivisions of clay, silt, sand fractions as well as different soil particle-size classification (PSC) systems. But few studies have developed appropriate research works on how PSC systems affect the calculations of D. Therefore, in this study, topsoil (0–5 cm) across nine forest density gradients of Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica plantations (MPPs) ranging from 900–2700 trees ha–1 were selected in the Mu Us sandy land, China. The D of soil was calculated by measuring soil PSD through fractal model and laser diffraction technique. The experimental results showed that: (1) The predominant PSD was distributed within the sand classification followed by clay and silt particle contents, which were far less prevalent in the study area. The general order of D values (Ds) was USDA (1993) > ISO14688 (2002) > ISSS (1929) > Katschinski (1957) > China (1987) > Blott & Pye (2012) PSC systems. (2) Ds were significantly positively related to the contents of clay and silt, and Ds were significantly negatively to the sand content. Ds were susceptible to the MPPs establishment and forest densities. (3) Ds of six PSC systems were significantly positive correlated, which indicated that they not only have difference, but also have close connection. (4) According to the fractal model and descriptions of soil fractions under different PSC systems, refining scales of clay and sand fractions could increase Ds, while the refining scale of silt fraction could decrease Ds. From the conclusions above, it is highly recommended that USDA (1993) and Blott & Pye (2012) PSC systems be used as reliable and practical PSC systems for describing and calculating D of soil PSD.

Molten chloride salts are the main components in liquid metal batteries, high-temperature heat storage materials, heat transfer mediums, and metal electrolytes. In this paper, interest is centered on the influence of the LiCl component and temperature on the local structure and transport properties of the molten LiCl-NaCl-KCl system over the temperature range of 900 K to 1200 K. The liquid structure and properties have been studied across the full composition range by molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of a sufficient length to collect reliable values, such as the partial radial distribution function, angular distribution functions, coordination numbers distribution, density, self-diffusion coefficient, ionic conductivity, and shear viscosity. Densities obtained from simulations were underestimated by an average 5.7% of the experimental values. Shear viscosities and ionic conductivity were in good agreement with the experimental data. The association of all ion pairs (except for Li-Li and Cl-Cl) was weakened by an increasing LiCl concentration. Ion clusters were formed in liquids with increasing temperatures. The self-diffusion coefficients and ionic conductivity showed positive dependences on both LiCl concentration and temperature, however, the shear viscosity was the opposite. By analyzing the hydrodynamic radii of each ion and the coordination stability of cation-anion pairs, it was speculated that ion clusters could be the cation-anion coordinated structure and affected the macro properties.
Chronic Infections: A Possible Scenario for Autophagy and Senescence Cross-Talk

Multiple tissues and systems in the organism undergo modifications during aging due to an accumulation of damaged proteins, lipids, and genetic material. To counteract this process, the cells are equipped with specific mechanisms, such as autophagy and senescence. Particularly, the immune system undergoes a process called immunosenescence, giving rise to a chronic inflammatory status of the organism, with a decreased ability to counteract antigens. The obvious result of this process is a reduced defence capacity. Currently, there is evidence that some pathogens are able to accelerate the immunosenescence process for their own benefit. Although to date numerous reports show the autophagy–senescence relationship, or the connection between pathogens with autophagy or senescence, the link between the three actors remains unexplored. In this review, we have summarized current knowledge about important issues related to aging, senescence, and autophagy.
