Authority and the Self: the Letters of
Medieval Women
Authors: Monagle Clare , James Carolyn , Garrioch David , Caine Barbara
Published: June 2023

This chapter investigates the letter as a privileged source of
authority for elite medieval women, for whom, given the myriad restrictions
on their mobility and institutional access, letter-writing often
afforded their best means to demonstrate authority, transact business
and advocate for their families, natal or spiritual. The chapter argues that,
consequently, women writers deployed the genre to articulate claims for
prestige and acuity in gendered terms. Letters enabled religious women
to disseminate their theology, as well as claims for independence from
local ecclesiastical oversight; and noblewomen to practise patronage,
build alliances and communicate with menfolk away at war or conducting
business. For most, letter-writing was the only form of writing open to
them, and so it became fundamental to the making of women’s authority
in the Middle Ages.
The Rise of Vernacular Letter-writing
Authors: Monagle Clare , James Carolyn , Garrioch David , Caine Barbara
Published: June 2023

The use of European vernacular languages in correspondence
from around the mid-fourteenth century encouraged women without
formal training to compose letters, aided by a literate scribe. In developing
urban centres, letter-writing was indispensable to mercantile activity
and the needs of family businesses drew the wives of entrepreneurs into
epistolary culture. Those women often used letters for their own purposes,
expressing emotions and opinions while reporting practical matters.
Gentry women managing estates on behalf of absent husbands also
maintained a more than utilitarian correspondence with their menfolk.
Letter-writing had always been essential for nuns communicating with
patrons and family members. However, during the sixteenth century, as
the Church’s stricter enclosure of convents also threatened their financial
viability, letters became the primary means of engaging with the outside
world.
Intimate Letters
Authors: Monagle Clare , James Carolyn , Garrioch David , Caine Barbara
Published: June 2023

It is their intimacy that characterises women’s letters in the
nineteenth century. This chapter will discuss the meaning of intimacy in
these letters and the new technologies that made it possible by enabling
women to write their own letters and pay for them to be sent by post,
assured that they would be read only by the addressee. Included here are
letters to husbands, children, siblings, friends and lovers, showing how
the range of women’s letters expanded across the nineteenth century,
and how letters enabled women to express their feelings and to negotiate
relationships in new ways. The chapter also discusses the letters that
show greater continuity with the past, especially immigrant letters, often
written to a family as a whole at irregular intervals.
Timor-Leste’s Long Road to Independence
Authors: Pereira Zelia , Graça Feijó Rui
Published: June 2023

From a much neglected Portuguese colony to independence, Timor-Leste travelled a belated, long and troubled journey that included a 24-year Indonesian occupation. A classic process of European decolonization (1974–1975) was followed by a nationalist struggle against “Third World Colonialism” (1975–1999), and a final phase under the direct aegis of the United Nations (1999–2002). More than a direct relation between coloniser and colonised, this turbulent process involved the participation of many different actors scattered around the world. The “Timor Issue” brought to the scene a martyred people’s determination, the diplomacy of several nations (friends or foes), the involvement of the United Nations, and the activism of solidarity networks. This collection adopts a transnational approach that highlights the complexity of Timor-Leste’s road to independence.

Published: June 2023

Revolutionary Worlds looks at the Indonesian revolution (1945-1949) from a local and regional perspective. With seventeen contributions, Indonesian and Dutch researchers bring to life the revolutionary world from widely differing perspectives. The authors explain how Indonesian, Chinese, Indian and Eurasian civilians, fighters, farmers and officials experienced and shaped the often volatile period between 1945 and 1950. The book focuses on different ideas of independence, survival strategies, mobilization, minorities, contestation of authority and the use of force against the backdrop of Indonesian and Dutch authorities’ efforts to gain or maintain control.

Bringing together two national historiographical traditions which have long remained largely separate, Revolutionary Worlds is the result of a collaboration between the Indonesian research project Proklamasi Kemerdekaan, Revolusi dan Perang di Indonesia ('Proclamation of Independence, Revolution and War in Indonesia', Universitas Gadjah Mada, Yogyakarta) and the Dutch research group of the Regional Studies project, under the umbrella of the research programme Independence, Decolonization, Violence and War in Indonesia, 1945-1950.

The Handbook of Japanese Media and Popular Culture in Transition brings together new research and perspectives on popular media phenomena, as well as shining a spotlight on texts that are less well known or studied. Organized into five thematic sections, the chapters span a diverse range of cultural genres, including contemporary film and television, postwar cinema, advertising, popular fiction, men’s magazines, manga and anime, karaoke and digital media. They address issues critical to contemporary Japanese society: the politicization of history, authenticity and representation, constructions of identity, trauma and social disaffection, intersectionality and trans/nationalism. Drawing on methods and approaches from a range of disciplines, the chapters make explicit the interconnections between these areas of research and map out possible trajectories for future inquiry. As such, the handbook will be of value to both novice scholars and seasoned researchers, working within and/or beyond the Japanese media studies remit.

Evaluating the survival and growth rate of Acropora digitifera in wild and mesocosm systems
Authors: Zaidi Puteri Nurshazmimi , Tan Chun Hong , Liew Hon Jung
Published: June 2023

The growing interest in coral culture for restoration and biotechnological applications has prompted researchers to improve their understanding of coral culture, with a focus on ex-situ production. This study aimed to understand the performance of common hard coral, Acropora digitifera by examining their survival and growth at Pulau Bidong (in-situ) and in a mesocosm system (ex-situ). First, three branches were tagged from each of eight A. digitifera colonies (n = 24). Mortality and linear extension rate were recorded monthly, from July - November 2018. Meanwhile, five branches from each tagged colony were brought back to a mesocosm set up at the hatchery in the Institute of Tropical Aquaculture (AKUATROP), Universiti Malaysia Terengganu (UMT) for the ex-situ experiment. All coral nubbins (n=40) were then divided into two coral size groups: small (<5cm) and large (>5cm). After four months, small nubbins showed 100% survivorship, while large nubbins survived for only two months. In contrast, 67% of wild colonies remained alive. However, nubbins in mesocosm extent with almost 2-folds slower (0.091 + 0.027 mm day-1) than those in the wild (0.166 + 0.033 mm day-1). Coral nubbins in mesocosm form a basal self-attachment “disc” at the bottom. This suggests that fragmented corals invest more energy in self-stabilization, especially in the early stage of transplantation, which affects their linear growth. This study demonstrates the different demographic traits for corals in both the environments.
Dietary inclusion of roselle improves body colouration and survival of the whiteleg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) juveniles challenged against Vibrio harveyi
Authors: Yong Annita Seok Kian , Mohamad Lal Mohammad Tamrin , Mohd @ Mohamad Nurshahieda
Published: June 2023

This study was conducted to investigate the use of fresh and heat-treated roselle meals on growth, body colouration, and survival against Vibrio harveyi infection of whiteleg shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei. Fresh (FR) or heat-treated roselle (HR) meals were added at 10% in isoproteic (38%) and isolipidic (7%) diets. A control diet was prepared without any addition of roselle meal. These diets were fed to shrimp (initial body weight 1.26g±0.02g) in triplicate groups for 8 weeks then challenged with V. harveyi. The growth, feed efficiency, total carotenoid content, and survival of shrimp and total Vibrio spp. counts in the hepatopancreas post-challenge test were estimated. No significant differences were recorded in the growth, survival, and feed utilization of the shrimp fed the roselle-added diets (FR or HR) compared to the control group. A significantly higher total carotenoid concentration was detected in shrimp fed with the FR and HR diets compared to the control (P<0.05). The challenge test with V. harveyi showed that the shrimp specimens fed with FR and HR diets gained higher survival and a lower total number of Vibrio spp. count in the hepatopancreas compared to the control group. The present finding suggests that fresh or heat-treated roselle meals provide a good source of carotenoid and increase the resistance of shrimp against vibriosis without affecting the growth and feed utilization.

Titius-Bode’s Relation in Exoplanetary Systems
Authors: Chang Heon-Young
Published: June 2023

The Titius-Bode’s relation has been historically successful in predicting
the location of Ceres in the solar system, while its physical basis remains
hidden. In this study, we attempt to answer the question of whether the
Titius-Bode’s relation is universally valid for exoplanetary systems with
plural exoplanets. For this purpose, we statistically study the distribution of
the ratio of the orbiting periods of two planets in 32 exoplanetary systems
hosted by a single star. We only consider the period ratios derived from
exoplanets orbiting a single star since celestial objects under investigation
are kept as simple as possible and free from uncertainties such as the mass of
the host star. We find that the distribution of period ratios of two exoplanets
appears inconsistent with that derived from the Titius-Bode’s relation
using the χ2 test. We also found that the
distance distribution in exoplanetary systems unlikely follows the uniform
distribution or the Poisson’s distribution. It is noted, however, that
more rigorous statistical tests should be carried out to reach a more certain
conclusion.
Interspinous ligamentoplasty for symptomatic lumbar spinal stenosis coexisting with mild segmental instability and vertebral body fracture: a report of 2 cases and a literature review
Authors: Moon Ji Soo , Kang Min Soo , Lee Sang Ho , Park Chan Hong
Published: June 2023

This report aimed to present successfully treated cases of lumbar spinal stenosis coexisting with mild segmental instability and vertebral body fracture. Two patients presented with chief complaints of sciatica and back pain that had lasted for 2 months. Preoperative images revealed lumbar spinal stenosis with mild segmental instability and compression fracture. Interspinous ligamentoplasty was done under general anesthesia. Treatment outcomes were assessed by numeric rating scale (NRS) scores, postoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and X-ray examinations. Favorable treatment outcomes were observed: Sciatica and back pain improved and the patients’ NRS scores also improved. Postoperative MRI showed sufficient decompression, and X-rays showed stabilization at the index level. Postoperative complications were not reported. Interspinous ligamentoplasty can be a good surgical option for lumbar spinal stenosis that coexists with mild segmental instability and vertebral body fracture.
Surface Rupture Kinematics of the 2020 Mw6.6 Masbate (Philippines) Earthquake determined from Optical and Radar Data
Authors: Sta. Rita Khelly Shan , Valkaniotis Sotirios , Lagmay Alfredo Mahar Francisco
Published: June 2023

Abstract. Optical correlation, interferometry, and field investigation of laterally offset features were undertaken to analyze the kinematics of the 2020 Mw6.6 Masbate earthquake. Coseismic displacement fields from optical correlation show a maximum displacement of 0.61 m corresponding to Mw6.64 geodetic moment magnitude and a lone asperity in Cataingan. Post-seismic deformation from interferometry highlights a maximum 0.14 m sinistral displacement equivalent to a Mw6.15 post-seismic moment magnitude, with coincident afterslip and coseismic slip distributions. The measured slip decreased towards the north, suggesting the presence of a slip barrier where stress can accumulate. Slip measurements and rupture length estimates characterize the Masbate segment as capable of producing unusually long ruptures with significant offsets despite the presence of creep. Post-seismic interferograms resolved the rupture far better than optical correlation, which was degraded due to high amplitude noise from sensor and environmental sources. Nevertheless, the resultant surface rupture morphology, as observed in optical correlation outputs and interferograms, demonstrated the presence of two transtensional basins in the north and south of the province, interlinked by a stepover of the respective Riedel shear zones. This review of the 2020 Mw6.6 Masbate earthquake reveals new insights into the seismic hazard and seismotectonic setting of Masbate province in Central Philippines.
HUMAN-WILDLIFE CONFLICT AND ROAD COLLISIONS WITH UNGULATES. A RISK ANALYSIS AND DESIGN SOLUTIONS IN TRENTINO, ITALY
Authors: Menapace M. , Tattoni C. , Tondini N. , Zatelli P. , Ciolli M.
Published: June 2023

Abstract. This study investigates wildlife vehicle collisions with wild ungulates in the Italian Autonomous Province of Trento (PAT) located in the Eastern Italian Alps with a consistent anthropic population and pervasive summer and winter tourism. Both the populations of wild ungulates and vehicular traffic are increasing as well as road collisions leading to animals killed, vehicles damaged and human injuries and fatalities. The purpose of this work was to use FOSS4G to identify the road sections with a high number of collisions and then propose and design practical engineering solutions tailored to each of these hotspots. QGIS 3.16.6, GRASS 7.8.5 and GRASS 8.2 were used to standardize the data set, process georeferenced road collision with ungulates registered by local authorities, perform the hotspot analysis and the final maps. Field surveys were carried out to investigate the local morphology at each hotspot and once the more appropriate practical solutions were chosen, a specific detailed project was proposed including its costs. A cost benefit analysis comparing the cost of the infrastructures with the cost of roadkills shows that the infrastructures are effective in reducing the costs in the medium-long term. The construction of the five proposed infrastructures would reduce deer investments by 6% (about 250 collisions avoided in five years). Such solutions should be more numerous and widely distributed in order to have a greater impact. This FOSS4G procedure can be replicated elsewhere to plan the position of crossing structures, and for application to EU funds, thus mitigating Human-wildlife conflicts (HWC).
IMPACT OF GEOLOCATION DATA ON AUGMENTED REALITY USABILITY: A COMPARATIVE USER TEST
Authors: Mercier J. , Chabloz N. , Dozot G. , Audrin C. , Ertz O. , Bocher E. , Rappo D.
Published: June 2023

Abstract. While the use of location-based augmented reality (AR) for education has demonstrated benefits on participants’ motivation, engagement, and on their physical activity, geolocation data inaccuracy causes augmented objects to jitter or drift, which is a factor in downgrading user experience. We developed a free and open source web AR application and conducted a comparative user test (n = 54) in order to assess the impact of geolocation data on usability, exploration, and focus. A control group explored biodiversity in nature using the system in combination with embedded GNSS data, and an experimental group used an external module for RTK data. During the test, eye tracking data, geolocated traces, and in-app user-triggered events were recorded. Participants answered usability questionnaires (SUS, UEQ, HARUS).We found that the geolocation data the RTK group was exposed to was less accurate in average than that of the control group. The RTK group reported lower usability scores on all scales, of which 5 out of 9 were significant, indicating that inaccurate data negatively predicts usability. The GNSS group walked more than the RTK group, indicating a partial effect on exploration. We found no significant effect on interaction time with the screen, indicating no specific relation between data accuracy and focus. While RTK data did not allow us to better the usability of location-based AR interfaces, results allow us to assess our system’s overall usability as excellent, and to define optimal operating conditions for future use with pupils.
Reducing manipulations in a control simulation experiment based on instability vectors with the Lorenz-63 model
Authors: Ouyang Mao , Tokuda Keita , Kotsuki Shunji
Published: June 2023

Abstract. Controlling weather is an outstanding and pioneering challenge for researchers around the world, due to the chaotic features of the complex
atmosphere. A control simulation experiment (CSE) on the Lorenz-63 model, which consists of positive and negative regimes represented by the states
of variable x, demonstrated that the variables can be controlled to stay in the target regime by adding perturbations with a constant magnitude to
an independent model run (Miyoshi and Sun, 2022). The current study tries to reduce the input manipulation of the CSE, including the total control
times and magnitudes of perturbations, by investigating how controls affect the instability of systems. For that purpose, we first explored the
instability properties of Lorenz-63 models without and under control. Experiments show that the maximum growth rate of the singular vector (SV) reduces
when the variable x was controlled in the target regime. Subsequently, this research proposes to update the magnitude of perturbations
adaptively based on the maximum growth rate of SV; consequently, the times to control will also change. The proposed method successfully reduces
around 40 % of total control times and around 20 % of total magnitudes of perturbations compared to the case with a constant magnitude.
Results of this research suggest that investigating the impacts of control on instability would be beneficial for designing methods to control the
complex atmosphere with feasible manipulations.

An Effective Face Recognition in Various Lighting Conditions Using LBP/LTP Techniques
Authors: Vinoja  , Krishnaveni
Published: June 2023

Making recognition is more reliable under uncontrolled lighting conditions is one of the most important challenges for practical face recognition systems. We tackle this by combining following methods. The first step is simple and efficient preprocessing chain. The preprocessing is used to avoid the unwanted illumination effects such as Non-uniform illumination, Shadowing & highlights, aliasing, blurring and noise. Second step includes local binary pattern (LBP) and local ternary pattern methods (LTP). LBP is possible to describe the texture and shape of a digital image. LTP is a generalization of the local binary pattern (LBP). Local texture descriptor that is more discriminant and less sensitive to noise in uniform regions. The final step is used to improve robustness by adding two complementary sources Gabor wavelets and LBP showing that the combination is considerably more accurate than either feature set alone.

Accurate Load Demand Sharing Strategy in a Grid Connected Network
Authors: Safeera L. , Prasad Rajesh
Published: June 2023

For the operation of autonomous microgrids, an important task is to share the load demand using multiple distributed generation (DG) units. In order to realize satisﬁed power sharing without the communication between DG units, the voltage droop control and its different variations have been reported in the literature. However, in a low-voltage microgrid, due to the effects of non- trivial feeder impedance, the conventional droop control is subject to the real and reactive power coupling and steady-state reactive power sharing errors. Furthermore, complex microgrid conﬁgurations (looped or mesh networks) often make the reactive power sharing more challenging. To improve the reactive power sharing accuracy, this paper proposes an enhanced control strategy that estimates the reactive power control error through injecting small real power disturbances, which is activated by the low-bandwidth synchronization signals from the central controller. At the same time, a slow integration term for reactive power sharing error elimination is added to the conventional reactive power droop control. The proposed compensation method achieves accurate reactive power sharing at the steady state, just like the performance of real power sharing through frequency droop control. Simulation and experimental results validate the feasibility of the proposed method.

Transmitter consists of NRZ modulating CW laser with the link range 1 km in the wavelength 1310 nm or 1550 nm. When the signal is transmitted in the channel, the performance could be severely degrated due to atmospheric attenuation and earth inequalities. The purpose of this paper is to find a suitable filter for any of the two receivers i.e APD and PIN for the reduction of noise. Filters used are low pass Bessel filter, low pass butterworth filter, low pass Chebyshev filter.

The scientific databases & web databases maintain huge and large amount of data. The real-world databases contain over thousands of relations & attributes. predefined database query forms are not able to satisfy various queries from users on those databases. The review of DQF is to capture a user’s preference and rating query form components, assisting to take decisions. The creation of a query form is an faster process and is given by the user. A user can also create the query form and submit queries to view the query output at each iteration. This way, a query form could be dynamically created till the user satisfies with the query forms. The important F-measure for measuring the goodness of a query form. A model is developed for estimating the goodness of a query form in DQF. Experimental evaluation and user study demonstrate the accuracy and performance of the system. The ranking of form components is based on the captured user preference. A user can also fill the query form and submit queries to view the query output at each step. This type a query form could be dynamically refined till the user satisfies with the query results.

Published: June 2023

In this paper, CA algorithm is used to establish the connection of the CA-based segmentation to the graphtheoretic methods to show that the iterative CA framework solves the shortest path problem with proper choice of transition rule. An algorithm based on CA ispresented to differentiate necrotic and enhancing tumor tissue content to assist clinicians and researchers in radiosurgery planning and assessment of the response to the therapy. Proposed segmentation framework is composed of three stages. First VOI is selectedwith foreground & background seeds using the line drawn by the user over the largest visible diameter of the tumor. In second stage, tumor CA algorithm is run on the VOI for the foreground & background seeds to obtain strength maps. Two strength maps are combined to obtain tumor probability map & level set surface is evolved on tumor probability map to impose spatial smoothness. Finally necrotic regions of the tumor is segmented using CA based method with chosen enhanced & necrotic seeds.

Cyberbullying is a socially aggressive and has powerful negative effects for individuals, specifically adolescents and youngsters. Cyberbullying allows the offender to mask his or her identity behind a computer. This anonymity makes it easier for the offender to strike blows against a victim without having to see the victim’s physical response. The distancing effect that technological devices have on today’s youth often leads them to say and do crueler things compared to what is typical in a traditional face-to-face bullying situation. In the recent times many methods for automatic thoughts of mining in the online data are becoming increasingly important, to increase the safety parameter of the people. This framework is proposed to extract Cyberbully polarity from the Forum using Fuzzy logic technique. At first, the given input is pre-processed and the useful content is gathered. Subsequently, the pre -processed data will be sent to the features extraction method. Probabilities of the words are calculated by using Fuzzy Decision Tree Method. Fuzzy rules can be applied in all these features to extract the certain set of cyberbully words like bad words, insulting words,threatening words and terrorism words from the given input, hence we use text mining here. Finally this method will return the reduced and accurate cyberbully words. This method is performed by human annotation using the existing methods like Mamdani Fuzzy System and Naive Bayes classifier. Extensive experiments are performed by using fuzzy logic on crime debate forum and the results show that this proposed approach is better than the traditional one. Aggressive text detection in social networks allows identifying offenses and misbehavior, and leverages tasks such as cyberbullying detection. Social media became a very useful platform to express ourselves. The expressions have adverse reactions as well. We intend to take data from these platforms and make use of it to improve on the safety parameter. For the development of the system we take the data available on Twitter and filter all the useful contents.
A Novel Method for Compression of Pressure Ulcer Image using Region of Interest Method

Published: June 2023

Other than lossy and lossless compression methods, the third option in pressure ulcer image compression could be the hybrid approach. Hybrid approach combines both lossy and lossless compression scheme. Here diagnostically important regions (Region of Interests) are lossless coded and the non regions of interests are lossy coded. Such hybrid approaches are referred as regionally lossless coding. Many researchers have proposed various hybrid medical  mage compression techniques. In these techniques, region of interests are first segmented and a suitable coding is done for ROI and non ROI. By doing so, high compression ratios can be obtained and quality of diagnostically important regions is maintained high, as desired by clinicians. These hybrid approaches differ in accordance with the  egmentation goal, segmentation approach they follow and coding techniques. There is no segmentation algorithm that is suitable for all pressure ulcer images. Most of the segmentation algorithms are for specific kind of pressure ulcer images. In this paper we propose a segmentation algorithm for extracting ROI from pressure ulcer images with hemorrhage, to supplement it to compression algorithm.

Published: June 2023

To derive actionable insights from vast amount of data in an intelligent fashion some techniques are used called machine learning techniques. These techniques support for predicting disease with correct case of training and testing. To classify the medical data logistic regression and artificial neural networks are the models to be selected. Today in world a major health problem is Diabetes Mellitus for which many classification algorithms have been applied for its diagnoses and treatment. To detect diabetes disease in early stage it needs greatest support of machine learning, since it cannot be cured and also brings great complication to our health system. In this paper, we establish a general framework for explaining the functioning of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) in binomial classification and implement and evaluate the variants of Back propagation algorithm (Standard Back Propagation, Resilient – Back propagation, Variable Learning Rate, Powell-Beale Conjugate Gradient, Levenberg Marquardt, Quasi-Newton Algorithm and Scaled Conjugate Gradient) using Pima Indians Diabetes Data set from UCI repository of machine learning databases. We also compare Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) with one of the conventional techniques, namely logistic regression (LR) to predict diabetic disease decisions.
