Removal of Coomassie Brilliant Blue R-250 Using Iron Oxide-Graphene Oxide Composite via Fenton-like Reaction
Authors: Magsino Al Jerome , Carlos Christine Joy , Torio Mary Ann , Villar Teofila , Rodriguez Myrna , Aguila Mae Joanne
Published: November 2022

The presence of organic dyes in the environment greatly affects the photosynthetic capabilities of underwater organisms as these compounds block sunlight and reduce the amount of available oxygen. Moreover, the structural diversity of dyes makes them highly resistant to light, heat, and oxidizing agents; thus, new approaches for dye remediation are continuously being developed. The use of iron oxide-graphene oxide composite (IOGOC) with persulfate oxidant via a Fentonlike reaction for the removal of Coomassie Brilliant Blue (CBB) R-250 in aqueous solutions was investigated. The IOGOC adsorbent was synthesized and then characterized using FTIR (Fouriertransform infrared spectrophotometry), SEM (scanning electron microscope), and XRD (X-ray powder diffraction). Adsorption isotherm and kinetic studies revealed that the adsorption of the dye on IOGOC was best described by Langmuir isotherm with a maximum adsorption capacity of 14.31 ± 0.65 mg CBB R-250/ g IOGOC and followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Batch adsorption studies were done to determine the effect of dye concentration, adsorbent loading, oxidant concentration, and pH on dye removal. Results showed that the parameters for the dye degradation that afforded a significantly higher degree of dye removal were 10 mg/L adsorbate amount at pH 3.0 with 7 mg adsorbent loading and 3 mM persulfate solution for 270 min contact time. End product analyses indicate that the treated water sample contains 1.84 ± 0.30 mg dissolved iron/ L solution, which is within the limits based on Department of Environment and Natural Resources’ (DENR) Water Quality Guidelines and General Effluent Standards of 2016 and a 73 ± 19% chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal. Recyclability studies show that the synthesized composite can be used for four times without a significant decrease in the dye removal efficiency.
Using a Glucometer for Home-based Quantification of Sugar in Baked Goods
Authors: Fundador Erwin Oliver , Calumba Kriza Faye
Published: November 2022

Weight reduction can be achieved by reducing the amount of sugar in the diet. However, a lot of bakeries sell products without nutritional labels. This makes it difficult to implement a weight management plan that is based on the reduction of sugar. To solve this problem, a cheap analytical technique suitable for home use has to be developed. Commercial glucometers are enzyme-based electrochemical sensors used for monitoring blood glucose levels. These devices are easy to purchase, cheap (as low as USD 7.00 for the unit and USD 0.2 for the strip), portable, and can measure glucose levels in less than 10 seconds. In this paper, the suitability of a glucometer for determining sugar in baked goods was determined by comparing the results obtained with the use of HPLC-RID. The results obtained using both instruments were not significantly different (P < 0.05). Assuming the HPLC-RID values as the standard, the % error values for the measured amount of sugar per serving of egg cookies, graham crackers, and breadsticks were 0.41%, –1.85%, and 6.02% respectively, which were all less than 10%. This study suggests that the glucometer used is a suitable instrument for home-based quantification of sugar in unlabeled baked goods.
Troika Generative Adversarial Network (T-GAN): A Synthetic Image Generator That Improves Neural Network Training for Handwriting Classification
Authors: Milan Joe Anthony , Fernandez Proceso
Published: November 2022

Training an artificial neural network for handwriting classification requires a sufficiently sized annotated dataset in order to avoid overfitting. In the absence of sufficient instances, data augmentation techniques are normally considered. In this paper, we propose the troika generative adversarial network (T-GAN) for data augmentation to address the scarcity of publicly labeled handwriting datasets. T-GAN has three generator subnetworks architectured to have some weight-sharing in order to learn the joint distribution from three specific domains. We used T-GAN to augment the data from a subset of the IAM Handwriting Database. We then compared this with other data augmentation techniques by measuring the improvements brought by each technique to the handwriting classification accuracies in three types of artificial neural networks (ANNs): deep ANN, convolutional neural network (CNN), and deep CNN. The data augmentation technique involving the T-GAN yielded the highest accuracy improvements in each of the three ANN classifier types – outperforming the standard techniques of image rotation, affine transformation, and combination of these two – as well as the technique that uses another GAN-based model, the coupled GAN (CoGAN). Furthermore, a paired t-test between the 10-fold cross-validation results of the T-GAN and CoGAN, the second-best augmentation technique in this study, on a deep CNN-made classifier confirmed the superiority of the data augmentation technique that uses the T-GAN. Finally, when the generated synthetic data instances from the T-GAN were further enhanced using the pepper noise removal and median filter, the classification accuracy of the trained CNN and deep CNN classifiers were further improved to 93.54% and 95.45%, respectively. Each of these is a big improvement from the original accuracies of 67.43% and 68.32%, respectively of the 2 classifiers trained on the original unaugmented dataset. Thus, data augmentation using T-GAN – coupled with the mentioned two image noise removal techniques – can be a preferred pre-training technique for augmenting handwriting datasets with insufficient data samples.

Identidad del sujeto proyectada en las redes sociales y su relación con la personalidad
Authors: López Sosa Martín , Pérez-Fernández Francisco
Published: November 2022

La configuración de la identidad, un elemento central en el paso hacia la vida adulta de los jóvenes actuales, se ve ahora influenciada por la introducción de las Redes Sociales Online (RSO) en la cotidianidad. Dicha cuestión se estudia en la presente investigación, es decir, valiéndonos del marco conceptual de los Estilos de Identidad de Berzonsky (Informacional, Normativo y Difuso-evitativo) y de los Cinco Grandes factores de la personalidad (Neuroticismo, Extraversión, Apertura, Amabilidad y Responsabilidad), se analizan las relaciones de estos con medidas de uso de la RSO “Instagram”. A su vez, para extender la literatura también se examinan las relaciones entre estos dos conceptos psicosociales. Para lograr este objetivo, una muestra de 98 jóvenes entre 18 y 29 años fue reclutada en marzo-abril de 2019. Los instrumentos que se incluyeron fueron: test ad hoc de uso de la RSO Instagram (2019); NEO-FFI (Inventario reducido de los Cinco Grandes; Costa y McCrae, 1992); ISI-5 traducido (Inventario de Estilos de Identidad traducido; Berzonsky, 2013). En función a los resultados, las correlaciones indicaron que los factores de personalidad que más explican quién usa y cómo se usa la RSO son neuroticismo, amabilidad y responsabilidad. En consonancia, los estilos de identidad más determinantes en el uso de Instagram fueron el normativo y el difuso-evitativo.

Τι είναι απεξάρτηση; Επανεξέταση του ορισμού από την Επιτροπή Συναίνεσης του Betty Ford Institute
Authors: McLellan Thomas
Published: November 2022

Ο ακριβής αριθμός των ατόμων που έχουν βιώσει και επιτυχώς ξεπεράσει την εξάρτηση από το αλκοόλ και τις ουσίες είναι άγνωστος, ωστόσο παραμένει μεγάλος. Τα άτομα αυτά αναφερόμενα στον νέο νηφάλιο, παραγωγικό τρόπο ζωής τους λένε πως βρίσκονται «σε απεξάρτηση». Αν και ο όρος απεξάρτηση χρησιμοποιείται ευρέως, η έλλειψη ενός στάνταρ ορισμού εμποδίζει την κατανόηση από το ευρύ κοινό και την έρευνα σχετικά με το θέμα. Η καλύτερη κατανόηση του κοινού μπορεί να προσελκύσει περισσότερο ενδιαφέρον και να αυξήσει τη διαθεσιμότητα σε παρεμβάσεις με στόχο την «απεξάρτηση». Οι περισσότερες έρευνες πιθανά να οδηγήσουν σε πιο αποτελεσματικές μορφές αυτών των παρεμβάσεων. Έχοντας αυτούς τους στόχους κατά νου μια ομάδα ερευνητών, θεραπευτών, προασπιστών της απεξάρτησης και ατόμων που εμπλέκονται στη χάραξη πολιτικής κλήθηκαν τον Σεπτέμβριο του 2006 από το Betty Ford Institute (BFI) να καταλήξουν σε έναν αρχικό ορισμό της «απεξάρτησης», για να βρεθεί μια κοινή αφετηρία με στόχο τη βελτίωση της επικοινωνίας, της έρευνας, του δημόσιου διαλόγου και της κατανόησης του κόσμου για αυτό το ζήτημα. Ο ομόφωνος ορισμός της «απεξάρτησης»: «τρόπος ζωής που χαρακτηρίζεται από νηφαλιότητα, προσωπική υγεία και συμμετοχή στα κοινά (ενεργός πολίτης), ο οποίος διατηρείται εθελοντικά»

O mercado de animais de estimação no Brasil é um dos setores que tem crescido significativamente, o qual vai de franquias especializadas em banho e tosa por aplicativo até seguros e planos de saúde. Neste contexto, surgiu a startup FugaPet que visa auxiliar tutores a encontrar pets desaparecidos. A partir da solução desenvolvida pela startup FugaPet, o artigo visa apresentar um algoritmo inteligente para recomendar caminhos que auxiliem tutores na procura do seu pet desaparecido. Para viabilizar o algoritmo, foi desenvolvido um webapp a fim de coletar dados de tutores voluntários sobre a localização em que um pet foi encontrado. Os resultados alcançados indicam que é possível recomendar rotas que minimizem o esforço para procurar um animal desaparecido. Portanto, pode-se afirmar que, por meio de um experimento com 50 repetições, o algoritmo consegue chegar na maioria das vezes na mesma solução ou em soluções muito próximas do ideal.

Acesso à educação básica no Brasil e na Guiné-Bissau: o direito à educação em diferentes contextos sociais
Authors: Batista Neusa Chaves , Menegotti Eliane Helena , Ehlert Fátima Rodrigues
Published: November 2022

O artigo propõe uma discussão sobre o acesso à educação básica, no Brasil e na Guiné-Bissau, como ação pública capaz de garantir o direito à educação em sociedades modernas ocidentais. Aborda a democratização da educação no contexto do direito de acesso à escola, enfatizando a trajetória de tais direitos nos contextos brasileiro e guineense. No escopo teórico, adota uma teoria de justiça social cuja amplitude enfatiza as injustiças socioeconômicas (dimensão da redistribuição) e culturais (dimensão do reconhecimento). Em termos metodológicos, trata-se de um estudo comparado que se utiliza de dados de natureza quali-quantitativos associados à pesquisa bibliográfica, tendo como unidade de comparação a legislação educacional do Brasil e da Guiné-Bissau. A análise destaca que, na década de 1980, o Brasil iniciou a redemocratização das instituições públicas com propósitos que envolveram ações dos governos (municipal, estadual, federal) e da sociedade civil organizada para a educação pública. Já a Guiné-Bissau é um país, no sentido moderno, muito jovem, tanto no que diz respeito à sua emancipação política quanto ao regime democrático; nesse país, o acesso à escola é resultado de um processo ainda em construção e consolidação, através das cooperações com organismos internacionais e “parceiros”, como o Brasil. Conclui-se, portanto, que há aproximações nos domínios educacional e cultural, mesmo com distanciamentos históricos a serem também compreendidos e considerados, nessas áreas.
Prediction of Wind Fields using Weather Pattern Recognition: Analysis of Sailing Strategy and Real Weather Data in Tokyo 2020 Olympics

Published: November 2022

The Tokyo 2020 Olympic Sailing Competitions were held in Enoshima Bay between the 25th of July and the 4th of August 2021. The climatological and the strategical analysis of the race area for the Swedish Sailing Team was developed in the three years prior to the Olympics (Masino et al., 2021). The result of the three years’ research was a tool named ”Call Book” that provides strategical rules for sailors and coaches both in terms of expected ranges of wind speed and direction and also in terms of trends with explanations for each identified weather pattern. The support team was working not only on the forecast but also on the specific analysis of the weather data in the race areas as measured on the water by the Olympics organizing authorities and monitored through the SAP Analytics website (SAP Sailing Analytics, 2021). Two race areas are herein taken into consideration, namely Enoshima and Zushi, where the Swedish Team athletes sailed most of the races. A statistical meta-analysis on the comparison between the forecast issued using the ”Call Book” and measured data on the race areas is carried out, investigating the specific outcome of the strategy of the races with the forecasted meteorological data.
Reparations for Historical Injustice and Intergenerational Trauma
Authors:   The University of Calgary, 2500 University Drive NW, Calgary Alberta T2N 1N4, Canada, Flanagan Tom
Published: November 2022

Canadian First Nations (Indians) are said to suffer historical trauma from attendance at residential schools, through loss of culture passed down across generations. But the empirical evidence for this claim is weak. Less than a third of Canadian Indians ever attended residential schools, and the average period of attendance was only 4.5 years. Moreover, the research on intergenerational trauma arising from attendance at the residential schools suffers from numerous methodological weaknesses described in detail in the paper. Claims of intergenerational trauma are being used to justify demands for reparations, but that amounts to transferring wealth from contemporary people who have done nothing wrong to other contemporary people who have suffered no wrong.

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has been widely used in food and drug detection, biological and medical sensing. In recent years, the study of non-metallic SERS substrates has gradually become a hot field of SERS. Here, we investigate the modulation effect on SERS activities of 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetrachyanoquindimethylene (F4TCNQ) grown on molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) films. The different nanostructures of F4TCNQ can have an effect on the bound capability of charges transferred from the surface of MoS2, which changes the electron density distribution on the surface of the F4TCNQ/MoS2 nanocomposite material. Therefore, the interface exhibits different charge localizations in the F4TCNQ/MoS2 nanocomposite. The charge transfer efficiency between the substrate and the adsorbed probe molecules leads the substrate to show a different SERS sensitivity. The enhancement factor of 4-mercaptobenzoic acid (4-MBA) molecules on the most optimized 7-min F4TCNQ/MoS2 nanocomposite substrate can reach \begin{document}$ 6.9\times {10}^{4} $\end{document}, and the detection limit concentration is as low as 10–6 mol/L. The result of research on F4TCNQ/MoS2 nanocomposite provides an effective optimization scheme of energy level regulation for SERS based on the chemical enhancement mechanism, and opens up a new way to further exploit its functional applications.
Resistance to the Current
Authors: Söderberg Johan , Maxigas
Published: November 2022

How hacking cultures drive contemporary capitalism and the future of innovation.

In Resistance to the Current, Johan Söderberg and Maxigas examine four historical case studies of hacker movements and their roles in shaping the twenty-first-century's network society. Based on decades of field work and analysis, this intervention into current debates situates an exploding variety of hacking practices within the contradictions of capitalism. Depoliticized accounts of computing cultures and collaborative production miss their core driver, write Söderberg and Maxigas: the articulation of critique and its recuperation into innovations.

Drawing on accounts of building, developing, and running community wireless networks, 3D printers, hackerspaces, and chat protocols, the authors develop a theoretical framework of critique and recuperation to examine how hackers—who have long held a reputation for being underground rebels—transform their outputs from communal, underground experiments to commercial products that benefit the state and capital. This framework allows a dialectical understanding of contemporary social conflicts around technology and innovation. Hackers' critiques of contemporary norms spur innovation, while recuperation turns these innovations into commodified products and services. Recuperation threatens the autonomy of hacker collectives, harnessing their outputs for the benefit of a capitalist system.

With significant practical implications, this sophisticated multidisciplinary account of technology-oriented movements that seek to challenge capitalism will appeal to science and technology readers interested in innovation studies, user studies, cultural studies, and media and communications.
