Foram avaliados homens e mulheres com exposição de longo prazo e contato direto a agrotóxicos, por meio de avaliação clínica feita. Esta avaliou a condição epidemiológica, medida de pressão arterial, peso, altura e cálculo de Índice de Massa Corporal (IMC), além da aplicação do teste de Audit (Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test) para alcoolismo. Dentre os principais resultados vale destacar que 17% dos entrevistados referiu utilizar o Equipamento de Proteção Individual (EPI) durante o trabalho de contato com agrotóxicos. Dentre os agrotóxicos mais utilizados e relacionados ao grau de toxicidade, 25 % altamente tóxicos e 41% medianamente tóxicos. Quanto ao uso de álcool e peso, verificou-se que 33% dos agricultores fazem uso indevido do mesmo. Com isso, não foi identificado, por meio das análises realizadas, nenhuma tendência de morbidade relacionada à exposição de longo prazo e contato direto aso agrotóxicos, porém, ficou atestado o uso equivocado dos EPIs pela maioria dos entrevistados.
Just care! Rethinking the uneven geographies of care
Authors: Saltiel Rivka , Strüver Anke
Published: July 2022

After COVID-19 was characterised as a pandemic in spring 2020, care and care work became very dominant topics in public discourse in Western Europe. Against this backdrop, the paper turns to the underlying social structures and conditions of caring relations and aims to go before and beyond the pandemic. The serious occasion of the COVID-19 pandemic and its unjust social effects will be taken as a starting point to engage with social theory to discuss pre-existing uneven ‘geographies of caring relations’ in capitalist societies, which pandemic-related measures are built on. For this, the paper draws on Joan Tronto’s extended thoughts on critical feminist care ethics, emphasising her notion of caring-with as the possibility to trust in caring relations based on interdependencies and solidarity, and argues for explicitly linking caring relations to questions of social justice. This framework stresses the foundations of social injustice and shifts the perspective from individual caring subjects and places (‘who and where’) to unjust social structures (‘how’). Moreover, it challenges dominant biopolitics and care economies by way of an insourcing of caring relationships. By conceiving care as part of social theory and not only social analyses, care ethics provide a normative framework for geography and beyond to imagine and practise social change.
Rapid systematic reviews for synthesizing research on built environment
Authors: Lagisz Malgorzata , Vasilakopoulou Konstantina , Bridge Catherine , Santamouris Mattheos , Nakagawa Shinichi
Published: July 2022

The built environment research expands rapidly making it challenging to synthesize the evidence for informing environmental policies within narrow timeframes. Rapid systematic reviews (rapid reviews) are a practical and viable alternative to comprehensive (full) systematic reviews of research evidence across disciplines. While systematic reviews are now widespread in published academic literature, rapid reviews are still rare. Accordingly, there is an urgent need to familiarise environmental researchers with rapid reviews, clarify misunderstandings, and to improve the use and visibility of rapid reviews in this field. This work outlines the main principles of performing robust and transparent rapid reviews, along with examples of eight such reviews on different topics related to sustainable built environment research. It also provides practical and tested recommendations on the ways to expedite systematic review process while minimising bias and maximising transparency. When conducted according to the best practice, rapid reviews can be of similar quality as many published systematic reviews.
Space-time landslide susceptibility modelling in Taiwan
Authors: Fang Zhice , Wang Yi , van Westen Cees , Lombardo Luigi
Published: July 2022

Portraying spatiotemporal variations in landslide susceptibility patterns is crucial for landslide prevention and management. In this study, we implement a space-time modeling approach to predict the landslide susceptibility on a yearly basis across the main island of Taiwan, from 2004 to 2018. We use a Bayesian version of a binomial generalized additive model, which assumes that landslide occurrences follow a Bernoulli distribution. We generate 46,074 slope units to partition the island of Taiwan and divided the time domain into 14 annual units. The binary landslide label assigned to each slope unit and their temporal replicates come from an available landslide database, that contains an inventory for every year. We only consider new landslides or reactivations of previous mass movements in the yearly inventories. This information and its absence counterpart are regressed against a set of static and dynamic covariates. Our modeling strategy features an initial explanatory model to test the goodness-of-fit and interpret the effect of covariates. Then, five cross-validation (CV) schemes are tested to provide a full spectrum of the predictive capacity of our model. Specifically, we implement a fully randomized 10-fold CV, a spatially constrained CV, two temporal CV (a leave one year out and a sequential temporal aggregation), together with a spatio-temporal CV. We summarize the performance in each of these tests, through their pure numerical expression as well as their residual representation in space and time. Overall, our space-time model produces excellent and interpretable results. We consider this type of dynamic prediction the new direction to take to finally move away from the static view provided by traditional susceptibility models. And, we consider such analyses just a stepping stone for further improvements, the most natural of which would lead to statistical simulations for future scenarios.
Using machine-learning methods to identify early-life predictors of 11-year language outcome
Authors: Gasparini Loretta , Shepherd Daisy , Bavin Edith L. , Eadie Patricia , Reilly Sheena , Morgan Angela , Wake Melissa
Published: July 2022

Background: Language is foundational for neurodevelopment and quality of life but an estimated 10% of children have a language disorder at age 5. Many children shift between classifications of typical and low language if assessed at multiple times in the early years, making it difficult to identify which children will have persisting difficulties and benefit most from support. This study aims to identify a parsimonious set of preschool indicators that predict language outcomes in late childhood, using data from the population-based Early Language in Victoria Study (n=839). Methods: Parents completed surveys about their children at ages 8, 12, 24 and 36 months. At 11 years, children were assessed using the Clinical Evaluation of Language Fundamentals 4th Edition (CELF-4). We used random forests to identify which of the 1990 parent-reported questions best predict children’s 11-year language outcome (CELF-4 score ≤81 representing low language) and used SuperLearner to estimate the accuracy of the constrained sets of questions. Results: At 24 months, 7 predictors relating to vocabulary, symbolic play, pragmatics and behavior yielded 73% sensitivity (95% CI: [57,85]) and 77% specificity (95% CI: [74,80]) for predicting low language at 11 years. At 36 months, 7 predictors relating to morphosyntax, vocabulary, parent-child interactions and parental stress yielded 75% sensitivity (95% CI: [58,88]) and 85% specificity (95% CI: [81,87]). Measures at 8 and 12 months yielded unsatisfactory accuracy. Conclusion: We identified two short sets of questions that predict language outcomes at age 11 with fair accuracy. Future research should seek to replicate results in a separate cohort.
Mindfulness in Schools: Evidence on the Impacts of School-Based Mindfulness Programs on Student Outcomes in P–12 Educational Settings
Authors: Roeser Robert W , Galla Brian , Baelen Rebecca N.
Published: July 2022

This Research Brief was developed for the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. The number of school-based mindfulness programs (SBMPs) for students has been increasing over the last fifteen years. They’ve been developed for students from pre- kindergarten through high school (P–12 settings). While the reach of SBMPs is substantial, their introduction has outpaced research on their effectiveness across diverse sociocultural contexts and school environments, and with students of different ages and backgrounds. A look at studies conducted between 2000 and 2019 showed that SBMPs improve students’ mindfulness and self-regulation skills. Further, there is promising evidence that these programs reduce students’ feelings of anxiety and depression, support their physical health, and assist them in engaging in healthy relationships with others. However, there is little consistent evidence at this time that SBMPs reduce students’ anger and aggression or improve their well-being, and further study is needed to adequately assess program impacts on students’ school behavior and performance. In the coming years, more scientific research on SBMPs is needed to determine: which kinds of practices and program elements work best, what outcomes they influence, and which students are impacted the most. Recommendations for practitioners considering the use of SBMPs are offered.
Mitigating Consequence Insensitivity for Genetically Engineered Crops
Authors: Inbar Yoel , Waldhof Gabi
Published: July 2022

Many opponents of genetically engineered (GE) food say that it ought to be prohibited regardless of the risks and benefits (Scott et al., 2016). If many people are truly unwilling to consider risks and benefits in evaluating GE technology, this poses serious problems for scientists and policy-makers. In a large demographically-representative German sample (N = 3,025), we investigate consequence-insensitive beliefs about GE crops among GE supporters and opponents, as well as whether these beliefs can be mitigated. We find that a large majority of opponents and a substantial minority of supporters are consequence-insensitive: They say that risks and benefits are irrelevant to their views. At the same time, the responses of consequence-insensitive participants to subsequent belief probes show substantial flexibility. Participants often gave responses inconsistent with the unconditional prohibition or permission of GE crops. These results suggest that professed con-sequence insensitivity should be taken as an expression of a strong moral belief rather than as literal endorsement of policy.
The role of motion in visual working memory for dynamic stimuli: more lagged but more precise representations of moving objects
Authors: Chung Yong Hoon , Schurgin Mark , Brady Timothy F.
Published: July 2022

While most visual working memory studies use static stimuli with unchanging features, objects in the real-world are often dynamic, introducing significant differences in the surface feature information hitting the retina from the same object over time (e.g., changes in orientation, lighting, shadows). Previous research on dynamic stimuli has shown that change detection is improved if objects obey rules of physical motion, but it is unclear how memory for visual features interacts with object motion. In the current study, we investigated whether object motion facilitates greater temporal integration of continuously changing surface feature information. In a series of experiments, participants were asked to report the final color of continuously changing colored dots that were either moving or stationary on the screen. We found that the reported colors “lagged behind” the physical states of the dots when they were in motion. We also observed that the precision of memory responses was significantly higher for stimuli in the moving condition compared to the stationary condition. Together, these findings suggest that memory representation is improved – but lagged – for moving objects, consistent with the idea that object motion may facilitate integration of object information over longer intervals.
Heuristic Decision Making Across Adulthood
Authors: Taylor Morgan , Marsh Elizabeth J. , Samanez-Larkin Gregory Russell
Published: July 2022

In general, research on aging and decision making has grown in recent years. Yet, little work has investigated how reliance on classic heuristics may differ across adulthood. For example, younger adults rely on the availability of information from memory when judging the relative frequency of plane crashes versus car accidents, but it is unclear if older adults are similarly reliant on this heuristic. In the current study, participants aged 20 to 90 years old made judgments that could be answered by relying on five different heuristics: anchoring, availability, recognition, representativeness, and sunk cost bias. We found no evidence of age-related differences in the use of the classic heuristics — younger and older adults employed anchoring, availability, recognition, and representativeness to equal degrees in order to make decisions. However, replicating past work, we found age-related differences in the sunk cost bias — older adults were more likely to avoid this fallacy compared to younger adults. We explain these different patterns by drawing on the distinctive roles stored knowledge and personal experience likely play across heuristics.
Infants infer potential social partners by observing the interactions of their parent with unknown others
Authors: Thomas Ashley J , Saxe Rebecca , Spelke Elizabeth
Published: July 2022

Infants are born into networks of individuals who are socially connected. How do infants begin learning which individuals are their own potential social partners? Using digitally edited videos, we showed 12-mo-old infants’ social interactions between unknown individuals and their own parents. In studies 1 to 4, after their parent showed affiliation toward one puppet, infants expected that puppet to engage with them. In study 5, infants made the reverse inference; after a puppet engaged with them, the infants expected that puppet to respond to their parent. In each study, infants’ inferences were specific to social interactions that involved their own parent as opposed to another infant’s parent. Thus, infants combine observation of social interactions with knowledge of their preexisting relationship with their parent to discover which newly encountered individuals are potential social partners for themselves and their families.
Leadership, mobilisation of risky behaviours, and accountability: The Church of Greece leaders’ public talk during the COVID-19 pandemic
Authors: Ntontis Evangelos , Bozatzis Nikos , Kokkini Vasiliki
Published: July 2022

Social psychologists have typically examined leadership and risk-taking behaviours through a social identity lens. However, the rhetorical/ideological aspects of such processes as well as leaders’ accountability management practices have not been adequately studied. We address this gap by focusing on leaders of the Church of Greece (CoG), who, at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, insisted that their congregation should keep receiving the Holy Communion, which typically involves the practice of spoon-sharing. We present a discursive analysis of 17 interviews with leaders of the CoG given in Greek media channels, exploring how they construct participation in the ritual. When Church leaders urged their audiences to engage in risky practices, they assumed various social identity positions (e.g., scientifically informed; civic minded), implicating competing ideological frameworks. They also managed their personal and institutional accountability for potential viral transmissions by placing responsibility for adverse effects on their followers. Implications for social psychological theory are discussed.
Meninjau kembali pandangan klasik terkait perilaku konstruksional memberi vs. memberikan: Suatu kajian dari perspektif linguistik korpus kuantitatif dan Gramatika Konstruksional
Authors: Rajeg Gede Primahadi Wijaya
Published: July 2022

This chapter revisits a classic account by Kaswanti Purwo (1995) on the constructional behaviour of a pair of three-place verbs that are paradigmatically linked: "memberi" and "memberikan" (both meaning 'to give'). The base form "memberi" is grammatically assumed to occur in the Double Object (DO) construction by default, with occasional yet still acceptable use in the Dative (DAT) construction. Meanwhile, the applicative suffixed form "memberikan" is considered grammatical only in the DAT, but strictly not in the DO, suggesting a hypothetically zero occurrence of "memberikan" in the DO. Quantitative corpus analyses demonstrate that while "memberi" can indeed occur in the two constructions (44% DO; 56% DAT), their distributions are statistically symmetric, contra to what has been assumed introspectively. Similarly, even though "memberikan" is indeed found predominantly with the DAT (84%), it is also attested in the DO (16%), showing a potentially minor proportion (95% confidence interval: 9-25%). The relative prominence of the DO for "memberi" is only apparent when comparison is made across verbs: despite the statistically insignificant distributional difference between the DO and DAT for "memberi" individually, the DO is still significantly associated with, and 4.1 times more likely for, "memberi" than "memberikan". These findings are discussed within the framework of usage-based, construction grammar. The paper argues for the existence of two constructional schemas (for the two verbs), the corpus distributions of which are hypothesised to reflect the constructions’ degree of entrenchment in the linguistic knowledge of the speakers.
From underground to the palm of your hand: The spatiality and cultural practice of South Korean webtoons
Authors: Bae Keun Yoon Becky
Published: July 2022

‘Webtoons’ – online comics – have now been a staple of popular culture in Korea for over a decade. Both profitable and accessible, they have long since overtaken print manhwa in popularity and market size, and the cultural role that they occupy is continuing to grow. Yet in viewing webtoons as a new media form, I feel that we are in danger of eliding the important shifts occurring between manhwa and webtoons, both in terms of the content (layout, serialization format, social relevance) and the sociocultural, physical/digital space that they occupy. In my article, while I will be remarking on changes that occur content-wise, I plan to more specifically focus on media space: the physical space in which print manhwa was read, the relation of space to the sociocultural standing that manhwa occupied, and the changes that occurred with the elimination of that physical space. I plan to argue that the dramatic shift in reading space – from manhwa rental stores (which was the primary space where print manhwa was read) to electronic devices (mobile devices in particular) – is not important merely because the digital facilitates access to the comic material, but because this change of space leads to a change in sociocultural connotations attached to the genre. The mediating space that links the consumer/reader to the material is a key factor that has influenced not only how comics are read, but how comics are viewed as a kind of visual media in cultural hierarchy.
A portrait of Japanese popular culture fans who study Japanese at an Australian university: Motivation and activities beyond the classroom
Authors: Imura Taeko
Published: July 2022

This article presents a quantitative study with a focus on portraying Japanese Popular Culture (JPC) fans who take a Japanese language course at a university. Questionnaires were administered to students who were studying Japanese as a foreign language (JFL) at a multi-campus university in Australia. 247 participants (which accounts for an 85.6 per cent response rate) responded to questions concerning interest in studying Japanese, future motivation and out-of-class activities related to JPC. Further data regarding JPC consumption in retrospect and perceived benefits of JPC in studying Japanese were collected from those who identified themselves as JPC fans. It revealed that nearly three-quarters of the students were self-claimed JPC fans. While both fans and non-fans showed high interest in the language, interest in traditional culture and travel to Japan, fans revealed substantially higher motivation than non-fans in all other accounts, namely future motivation. Non-fans, however, showed relatively high motivation only in future employment. A prominent finding was that fans were exposed to Japanese language far more frequently outside the classroom than non-fans of JPC. The most popular activities for fans were watching anime, listening to J-pop music and playing video games. Reading ‘manga’ was also a frequent activity but they were reading translated ‘manga’. The findings suggest that future motivation associated with Japan and Japanese language is an important element in continuing Japanese language study. This article has implications for the role of popular culture in foreign language (FL) education, in particular when many FL learners are interested in popular culture like JPC.
What’s a Parent to Do? Measuring Cultural Logics of Parenting with Text Analysis
Authors: Hastings Orestes P , Pesando Luca Maria
Published: July 2022

Leading theories on parenting in the United States suggest that parenting styles vary widely by socioeconomic status, with middle-class parents practicing "concerted cultivation"—marked by parents’ intensive efforts to foster their children’s development—and working-class parents engaging in the "accomplishment of natural growth"—with children given more freedom to manage their own time. While it is frequently inferred that these parenting practices reflect different cultural logics of parenting, such logics are inherently hard to measure. Our paper proposes a new way to study parenting logics using computational social science (CSS) techniques applied to a nationally representative survey where respondents provided parenting advice across three hypo- thetical parenting situations. We analyze this advice using Biterm Topic Modeling and explore whether the resulting topics vary by respondents’ race/ethnicity, education, and income. We find that nearly all parenting logics reflect some form of intensive parenting but, within that, multiple nuanced versions of parenting emerge, varying across two dimensions: (1) assertive vs negotiated parenting, and (2) pedagogic vs pragmatic parenting. Using fractional multinomial logistic regression, we find little difference in how parenting logics vary by race/ethnicity, education, and income, revealing much more similarity across socioeconomic and sociodemographic groups than commonly understood. These findings demonstrate how CSS provides new tools to enrich the study of long-standing questions in social science research and complement the use of more "traditional" research methods in a synergistic manner.
The algorithmic public opinion: a literature review

Published: July 2022

In the context of a society where digital technologies have come to pervasively intermediate most social, cultural and economic processes, algorithms represent an important socio-technical component of ‘the social’. Unsurprisingly, algorithms also hold an important role in the formation of public opinion. The way people access news and informational content, thus forming their political and social views, is now largely mediated by social media platforms. Their algorithms represent new types of gatekeepers that contribute in decisive ways to shape individual and collective access to information. In this literature review, we discuss the most relevant research concurring to the existence of what we define as an 'algorithmic public opinion', from an interdisciplinary perspective that brings together the sociology of media, critical algorithm studies and information design.

Introduction: People with lactose intolerance are suggested to consume dietary items containing less lactose, such as goat’s milk. This study aimed to investigate the effects of goat’s milk powder on the health of lactose intolerant middle-aged adults. Methods: A total of 60 subjects were recruited into this randomised controlled trial. They were divided into four groups and received different dietary interventions (goat’s milk, goat’s milk with curcumin, goat’s milk with coffee, lactose-free milk) for five weeks. Health effects were compared between pre- and post-intervention. Anthropometric and biochemical parameters (blood glucose, insulin, lipid profile, C-reactive protein, and lactoferrin) were evaluated. Dietary intake was recorded using a food record. Results: Fifty-one lactose intolerant subjects completed the study. After ingestion of goat’s milk, there were significant reductions in body fat (p=0.033) and a significant increase in the percentage of muscle (p=0.021). Waist circumference (WC) decreased in both the goat’s milk with curcumin and goat’s milk with coffee groups (p<0.05 for all). Unfortunately, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) dropped after the five-week intervention in the goat’s milk group (p=0.002). Lactoferrin level of the goat’s milk group was higher than other groups at post-intervention (p<0.001). Besides, the goat’s milk with coffee group seemed to consume more carbohydrates after completing the intervention (p=0.034). Conclusion: A five-week intake of goat’s milk reduced the risk of abdominal obesity among middle-aged adults. In addition, it resulted in improved lactoferrin levels.

Published: July 2022

Food is one of the basic human needs. A priority food commodity is rice. The Special Region of Yogyakarta Province is one of the areas that has agricultural land that is able to supply the food needs in the area. However, the population in the Special Region of Yogyakarta is growing annually, having an impact on the food needs that have to be met. The study aimed to determine the food reserves, especially rice reserves, in the Special Region of Yogyakarta. This study used a descriptive analytical method and ARIMA forecasting model. The study used time series data from 2011 to 2021 obtained from the dataku application managed by BAPPEDA of the Special Region of Yogyakarta. The data consisted of rice production data, per capita consumption data, and population data. The results showed that the rice reserves in the Special Region of Yogyakarta from 2011 to 2021 decreased over years. Based on the forecasting results, the best model was ARIMA c(9,1,6). In addition, the result of the rice reserve forecast from 2022 to 2025 also showed a decreasing trend from year to year. Therefore, it is crucial for the government to make efforts to maintain food availability to achieve local food security.Keywords: ARIMA, Food Reserves Rice, Forecasting, Special Region of Yogyakarta

Shallots (Allium cepa var ascalonicum L.) is one of the most popular food additives in Indonesia. These ingredients are used to add flavor to Indonesian cuisine. The increase in community needs caused by the increase in population has an impact on increasing the demand for shallots every year. This increase also occurred in Bantul Regency. The demand for shallots in Bantul is not accompanied by a balance in the amount of supply obtained from shallot-producing areas. This is because most farmers in Bantul Regency only plant shallots in the dry season. Therefore, this study seeks to propose how to balance the supply of shallots by farmers with market demand to increase farmers' profits. This study uses a dynamic system simulation approach with the help of Powersim studio 9 software. The first step is to build a Causal Loop Diagram (CLD) to see the causal or reciprocal relationship between variances and stock-flow diagrams to compile a mathematical formulation of the system model. dynamic. The simulation results are then validated to determine the credibility of the model. After the model is declared valid, 3 (three) scenarios of implementing the strategy in the shallot supply chain model will be generated. The best model scenario simulation results are scenario 1 (one), namely by replacing the use of tuber seeds in all activities.

The study analysed Croatian journals covered by Web of Science (WoS) Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE) and Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) over three time periods. The first two periods were the periods of inclusion of Croatian journals in SCIE/SSCI, and the third period was the period of exclusion of journals. In 1999, there were 12 Croatian journals indexed, and in 2011, mostly as a result of the WoS Regional Expansion Programme, there were 50 Croatian journals covered by SCIE/SSCI. The IF range of the Croatian journals showed an increase over the years from 1999 to 2011, but most journals remained in the fourth quartile (Q4). Although Croatia is considered as a country from the scientific periphery, in comparison with neighbouring Italy, Hungary, Slovenia, and Serbia in 2005, 2011, and 2018, Croatia had a permanently strong journal representation in JCR.
Interaktivna vizualizacija gosto poseljenih volumnov
Authors: Lesar Žiga , Marolt Matija
Published: July 2022

V clanku obravnavamo neposredno upodabljanje volumnov, ki vsebujejo številne podobne primerke struktur, kot so slike polikristalnih materialov, z vlakni ojacenih polimerov in znotrajceličnih struktur. V teh primerih je gostota primerkov tako velika, da obstojece metode za upodabljanje ne omogočajo dobrega vpogleda v notranjost volumnov zaradi kolicine zastiranja med primerki. Predstavljamo novo metodo za upravljanje vidnosti pri vizualizaciji tovrstnih podatkov, ki nam omogoca skrivanje posameznih primerkov, poudarjanje primerkov z dolocenimi lastnostmi, red ˇ cenje primerkov in zlivanje segmentacije s surovimi podatki. Metodo smo preizkusili na sliki z vlakni ojacenega polimera, kjer omogoča boljši pregled notranjosti volumna.
Integracija strukturnih omejitev pri izpeljavi gensko regulatornih omrežij
Authors: Pušnik Žiga , Moškon Miha
Published: July 2022

Inferenca gensko regulatornih omrežij (GRO) iz ekspresijskih podatkov je še vedno težak problem. Število genov je velikokrat večje od števila poskusov, kjer gensko izražanje še dodatno spremlja določena mera šuma. Zato predlagamo uporabo strukturnih omejitev pri izpeljavi GRO na podlagi predhodnega znanja v obliki referenčnih omrežij. Naša ideja izvira iz dejstva, da vsebujejo GRO vzorce, tako imenovane motive, ki se pojavljajo bistveno pogosteje, kot bi to pričakovali v naključno generiranih omrežjih. Uporabo predhodnega znanja dosežemo s spreminjanjem uteži posameznega gena v cenovni funkciji linearne regresije. Uteži spreminjamo iterativno z gradientnim spustom. Naš pristop temelji na že uveljavljeni parcialno korelacijski metodi SPACE. S spreminjanjem uteži na podlagi prisotnosti motivov, porazdelitve stopenj genov in pričakovanega števila regulatornih genov za odtenek izboljšamo točnost, natančnost, priklic in F 1 oceno omrežij izpeljanih iz GRO bakterije E. coli.
Digitalizacija in prilagoditev psihološkega testa za uporabo s sistemom za spremljanje očesnih gibov

Demenca je najpogostejša nevrološka motnja, za katero po svetu boleha okoli 50 milijonov ljudi, ta številka pa se zaradi staranjaprebivalstva vztrajno vecˇa. Raziskave kažejo, da se znaki demence v obliki kognitivnega upada nakazujejo že nekaj let pred jasnoizraženo klinicˇno sliko. V primeru, da te znake odkrijemo v fazi blagega kognitivnega upada (MCI), lahko z razlicˇnimi pristopiupocˇasnimo ali celo zaustavimo napredovanje bolezni v demenco. Za postavitev diagnoze je trenutno potreben pregled prinevrologu in psihologu, ki

postavita diagnozo. Žal pa le redki bolniki pridejo do specialistov, ko so še v fazi MCI. Eden izmed testov, ki se ga psihologi pogostoposlužujejo, je test s Corsijevimi kockami. S pomocˇjo le-tega psiholog lahko oceni stopnjo okvare vidno-prostorskega delovnega spomina, ki med drugim lahko nakazuje na MCI. Test se ponavadi izvaja s fizicˇnimi kockami, razporejenimi na podlago. Psiholog vnakljucˇnem zaporedju tapka po kockah, naloga preizkušanca pa je, da za psihologom ponovi tapkanje v istem vrstnem redu. Eden izmed nacˇinov za pravocˇasno detekcijo MCI je digitalizacija in avtomatizacija nevropsihološkega testiranja z uporabo sodobnihtehnologij. V zadnjih letih so se mocˇno izboljšali sistemi za sledenje ocˇesnim gibom, zaradi njihove cenovne dostopnosti pa so postalizanimivo orodje za potrebe raziskovanja nevroloških bolezni, pogosto tudi za raziskovanje razlicˇnih stopenj kognitivnega upada.  Vcˇlanku predlagamo prilagoditev in digitalizacijo testa Corsi za uporabo skupaj s sistemom za sledenje ocˇesnim gibom. Skupaj s šenekaterimi drugimi testi (npr. gladko sledenje tocˇki) bi tako predstavljal baterijo nalog za avtomatsko detekcijo znakov MCI z uporabosistema za sledenje ocˇesnim gibom. Tovrsten sistem bi lahko kot neke vrste presejalni test uporabljalo zdravstveno varstvo naprimarni ravni, ki bi ob odkritju prisotnosti MCI bolnika pravocˇasno napotil na pregled pri specialistu.

Visoko zmogljivo računalništvo rešuje kompleksne znanstvene in inženirske probleme, vse bolj tudi poslovne in družbene. V prispevku obravnavamo razvoj storitev visoko zmogljivega računalništva v oblaku, v luči inoviranja poslovnih modelov, s posebnim poudarkom na malih in srednje velikih podjetjih. V ta namen smo analizirali 20 primerov poskusov, ki so bili izvedeni v okviru evropskih projektov za spodbujanje uporabe visoko zmogljivega računalništva. Izsledki analize kažejo, da se uporaba širi iz tradicionalnih proizvodnih podjetij na storitveno industrijo ter vpliva na hitrejše prilagajanje zahtevam potrošnikov, oblikovanje novih izdelkov in storitev in oblike sodelovanja celotnega poslovnega ekosistema. Poleg tega prispeva k razvoju in uporabi metod umetne inteligence, procesiranju vele podatkov in dosegljivosti kompleksnih računalniških storitev za vse deležnike na trgu.

Opisani so problemi z izrazoslovjem, na katere so naleteli načrtovalci tega pomembnega spletnega orodja.  Razvoj slovarja  je v bistvu sledil uvajanju računalništva in informatike v Sloveniji in hkrati doživljal tudi tehnološke spremembe. Iz prvih skromnih poskusov je prerasel v zrelega mladeniča.
Detekcija manipulacij za ohranjanje zasebnosti mehkih atributov na slikah obraza
Authors: Rot Peter , Peer Peter , Štruc Vitomir
Published: July 2022

V strokovni literaturi se vse pogosteje pojavljajo potrebe po metodah za zagotavljanje zasebnosti v slikovnih podatkih. Na področju analize obrazov so raziskovalci predlagali metode, ki preslikajo sliko obraza tako, da je samodejno luščenje mehkih biometričnih lastnosti oteženo, obenem pa je vizualni videz slike podoben izvirni sliki. V tem članku predlagamo nov detekcijski postopek, ki zaznava, ali je bila slika spremenjena s tovrstnimi metodami. Postopek temelji na dejstvu, da razvrščevalnik mehkih biometričnih lastnosti tipično vrne različen rezultat za zaščiteno sliko in za sliko, ki je obdelana s postopkom za obnavljanje slike. Z eksperimenti pokažemo, da lahko to razliko uporabimo za detekcijo sprememb na sliki, ki so posledica uporabe metod za zaščito zasebnosti. Prednost naše metode je, da ne potrebuje znanja o uporabljeni metodi za zaščito zasebnosti. Detektor ovrednotimo na štirih metodah za ohranjanje zasebnosti mehkih atributov in na treh raznovrstnih zbirkah slik obrazov. Rezultati kažejo, da ima predlagan postopek vrsto prednosti pred konkurenčnimi rešitvami in da z visoko natančnostjo detektira manipulirane slike.
