ENHANCING KURDISH SIGN LANGUAGE RECOGNITION THROUGH RANDOM FOREST CLASSIFIER AND NOISE REDUCTION VIA SINGULAR VALUE DECOMPOSITION (SVD)
Authors: Ahmed Sara A. , Mahmood Bozhin N. , Mahmood Diar J. , Namq Mohammed M.
Published: June 2024

Deaf people around the world face difficulty communicating with others. Hence, they use their own language to communicate with each other. This paper introduces a new approach for Kurdish sign language recognition using the random forest classifier algorithm aiming to facilitate communication for deaf communities to communicate with others without relying on human interpreters. On the other side, for further enhancement of the images captured during recognition linear algebra techniques have been used such as singular value decomposition for image compression and Moore–Penrose inverse for blur removal. Kurdish language has 34 alphabets and (10 numeric numbers 10, . . . ,3 ,2 ,1). Additionally, three extra signs have been created and added to the dataset, such as space, backspace, and delete sentences for the purpose of real-time translation. A collection of 800 images has been gathered for each character, out of 800 images, only 80 per character were used due to their similar positions but varied alignment, totalling 3,520 images for the dataset (44 characters  80 images each). Two simulation scenarios were carried out: one with optimal conditions - a white background and adequate lighting, and another with challenges such as complex backgrounds and varied lighting angles. Both achieved high match rates of 96% and 87%, respectively. Further, a classification report analyzed precision, recall, and F1 score metrics.
Atomistic Phase Transition Mechanism of Zero-Strain Electrode Material: Transmission Electron Microscopy Investigation of Li4Ti5O12 Spinel Lattice Upon Lithiation
Authors: Kitta Mitsunori , Taguchi Noboru , Ozaki Hiroyuki , Kiyobayashi Tetsu
Published: June 2024

The lithiation mechanism of electrode materials is important for understanding the basic reactions in Li-ion batteries. In particular, zero-strain materials have garnered interest owing to their stable charge–discharge performances. In this study, we investigated the atomistic phase transition mechanism of spinel Li4Ti5O12, a well-known zero-strain material, using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. A single-crystalline Li4Ti5O12 (100) specimen was prepared and observed in situ at a lattice resolution under electron beam-assisted lithiation. The lattice fringes originating from the Li plane of the spinel crystal were anisotropically altered during phase transition, suggesting the asymmetrical site shifting of Li atoms during lithiation. This spontaneous symmetry-breaking mechanism for the phase transition is considered essential for the lithiation of the spinel lattice.
Enantioselective Decarboxylative C(sp3)-C(sp3) Cross-Coupling of Aliphatic Acids with gem-Borazirconocene Alkanes
Authors: Wang Jing , Bai Songlin , Yang Chao , Qi Xiangbing
Published: June 2024

Asymmetric decarboxylative cross-couplings of carboxylic acids represent a powerful tool to synthesize chiral building blocks for medicinal chemistry and material science. However, synthesis of versatile chiral alkylboron derivatives via asymmetric decarboxylative C(sp3)-C(sp3) cross-coupling from readily available primary aliphatic acids and mild organometallic reagents is still challenging. In this study, we report a visible-light-induced, Ni-catalyzed enantioconvergent C(sp3)-C(sp3) cross-coupling of unactivated primary aliphatic acids with gem-borazirconocene alkanes, furnishing a diverse array of valuable chiral alkylboron building blocks. The broad substrate scope, high functional group tolerance, and the late-stage modification of complex drug molecules and natural products with high enantioselectivity demonstrate the synthetic potential of the method. Mechanistic investigations suggest an enantioconvergent radical-radical cross-coupling pathway, wherein the primary radical from carboxylic acids is generated through single-electron reduction with ZrIII species, representing an unprecedented example of enantioselective radical C(sp3)-C(sp3) cross coupling in the absence of photocatalysts.

Self-employed Work in Northeast China County Regions: From Traditional Workers to Store Owners
Authors: Ning Jing , Zhao Wei
Published: June 2024

Northeast China has experienced economic and industrial transformation, especially in the county regions. More and more self-employers are arising in the Northeast County regions. After the reform and marketization, the stable working space once constructed by the national capital quickly lost its advantage and disappeared. Now there is nearly no industry in most counties of Northeast China, so laid-off workers who stay there are widely forced to employ themselves in self-owned businesses. They are using small family capital to create new working spaces in the store, and at the same time create new ways of working and social relationships. The new working and living spaces are highly embedded into each other, which means an integration of store and family. Their daily life, family, and social relations are all closely connected with working. They are also continuously reproducing a stable structure of working and living by intergenerational succession.
The Effect of Herding Behavior on the Efficiency of Pedestrian Evacuation in Subway Stations
Authors: Bao Yushun
Published: June 2024

In the emergency evacuation of pedestrians in subway stations, most people do not know the correct evacuation routes and methods, and tend to follow others blindly, resulting in herding behavior. To study the process of pedestrian evacuation with herding behavior in subway stations, a cellular automata pedestrian evacuation model is established to simulate the pedestrian evacuation with herding behavior in subway stations, and the effects of the weight coefficients of the parameters in the model on the overall evacuation time and the distribution of people’s positions are investigated to quantify the effects of herding on the efficiency of the pedestrian evacuation and the movement behavior. The simulation results show that moderate (kC < 40) crowd behavior can play a beneficial role in reducing reaction time and guiding the direction of evacuation; on the contrary, excessive crowd behavior (kC > 40) will lead to an increase in evacuation time and a decrease in evacuation efficiency. The conclusions presented in this paper can help to improve the efficiency of pedestrian evacuation in emergencies and provide a theoretical basis and practical guidance for the management of safety evacuation in subway stations.

Published: June 2024

For effective and safe development of mining deposits, it is necessary to study the impact of natural and anthropogenic factors on the development of deformation processes, which provides an opportunity to regulate their impact on the rock mass, earth surface and engineering structures. The size of the deposit, geology and production volumes, affects the area of deformation, which can spread over huge areas. Accordingly, regional deformation monitoring is required for such fields. In order to provide high detail coverage of the area, traditional ground-based methods are impractical and costly. More timely and cost-effective for monitoring deformation of large territories is the use of differential radar interferometry.
The results of high-precision geodetic measurements for the period 2019-2021 revealed that more observation points have significant negative values. This indicates a stable process of subsidence of the earth, predominantly. Analysis and interpretation of the obtained results of geodynamic monitoring (high-precision leveling, radar interferometry), allowed to determine that the condition for the formation of vertical and horizontal deformations of the earth's surface is a natural-technogenic factor.

This research aims to reveal the background to the establishment of the Yogyakarta Branch of the Indonesian Red Cross (PMI) during the Second War of Independence in Yogyakarta. This is interesting to study because the entire Indonesian nation is trying to maintain its independence from the Second Dutch Military Aggression on December 19, 1948. The method used to obtain data and information is by collecting books, archives, and interviews with former PMI members in the Second War of Independence in Yogyakarta. Data processing for this writing is based on a historical approach. This was deliberately chosen because it will reveal more about the founding of PMI during the Second War of Independence in Yogyakarta. Data obtained from various sources is selected and source critique is carried out and arranged in factual relationships to form an understanding which is then expressed in narrative descriptive writing. The research results show that the PMI Yogyakarta Branch was founded because it wanted to play a major role in humanitarian missions by helping war victims resulting from the Dutch II military aggression against the city of Yogyakarta in 1948-1949.
“Our Good Friend and Illustrious Coreligionist Theodor Herzl”: The Three Interviews of La epoka with the Zionist Leader and Hamidian Censorship
Authors: Tezcan Selim
Published: June 2024

Abstract: La epoka was a Ladino newspaper published in Salonica. Its editor Sam Lévy published three interviews with Theodor Herzl between 1901 and 1904. His announcement and subsequent publication of the third interview drew angry responses from the Sublime Porte, which ordered the governor of Salonica to close it down. The governor resisted the orders and La epoka remained open, even publishing a eulogistic obituary of Herzl. In this article, I examine these interviews and obituary, showing that Lévy combined his sharp criticisms of Zionism with an adulation of the Zionist leader. I also explore Ottoman archival documents about the Ladino press and argue that Hamidian censorship could be flexible according to political circumstances, overlooking Lévy’s first two interviews that were made during the Ottoman government’s negotiations with Herzl, yet reacting sharply to the third interview conducted afterward and containing direct references to the Sixth Zionist Congress.

The Political Economy of Rent-Seeking Behavior and the Connection with Unearned Income and Inequality
Authors: Bağlıtaş H. Hilal
Published: June 2024

For decades, inequality has been one of the most important problems to be tackled, and studies of income (or wealth) inequality are the source of much research. When we deal with the sources of unequal income distribution, and if a factor is unproductive but only reasonable in the accumulation of wealth, it has a diverting impact on income. In this line, rent-seeking activities are a structure suitable for this content. Rent-seeking is aimed at gaining without contributing to the number of goods and services and shows the characteristic of unearned income. Earned income is paid for the labor from physical and mental activities. Unearned income does not have this feature and is a return on income due to investment in income. According to Stiglitz (2016), rent-seeking is a struggle to get a larger share of wealth. Taking larger shares is linked to declining shares and leads to inequality within society. In the context of the political economy of rent-seeking behavior, we examine various approaches. In addition, we illustrate how rent-seeking is related to unearned income and inequality.

Appropriate/Inappropriate: How People Behave Online in Covid-19 Pandemic
Authors: Al-Isra Andi Batara , Rahmi Ulfiani , Ismail Ahmad , Saraswati Andi Irma
Published: June 2024

This article discusses how Covid-19 can be categorised as a state of exception, which then changes people's tendency to interact online and how they do it during this pandemic. Interacting online closely relates to people's perceptions of 'being in the world' and how people behave online, i.e. what is considered appropriate and what is considered inappropriate on their 'online interaction'. Using literature review by reading provided materials regarding the topic and drawing some information from our personal experience during the pandemic as additional data, we argue that that Covid-19 announced by WHO as a pandemic is a crisis which caused several countries to declare a 'state of exception'. Thus, policies such as physical distancing change people's tendency to interact, from physical in situ to ‘going online’. People that use various media platforms for interaction can be discussed using the concept of ‘polymedia’, a way of using lots of media interchangeably by considering which one is more appropriate (and inappropriate) for particular situations during the pandemic. It is because polymedia has its own moral dimensions, and it has a relation to how people behave online that is also closely related to the concept of 'ordinary ethics' on their quotidian online interaction.

AltGosling: Automatic Generation of Text Descriptions for Accessible Genomics Data Visualization
Authors: Smits Thomas Chris , L'Yi Sehi , Mar Andrew Patrick , Gehlenborg Nils
Published: June 2024

Motivation: Biomedical visualizations are key to accessing biomedical knowledge and detecting new patterns in large datasets. Interactive visualizations are essential for biomedical data scientists and are omnipresent in data analysis software and data portals. Without appropriate descriptions, these visualizations are not accessible to all people with blindness and low vision, who often rely on screen reader accessibility technologies to access visual information on digital devices. Screen readers require descriptions to convey image content. However, many images lack informative descriptions due to unawareness and difficulty writing such descriptions. Describing complex and interactive visualizations, like genomics data visualizations, is even more challenging. Automatic generation of descriptions could be beneficial, yet current alt text generating models are limited to basic visualizations and cannot be used for genomics. Results: We present AltGosling, an automated description generation tool focussed on interactive data visualizations of genome-mapped data, created with the grammar-based genomics toolkit Gosling. The logic-based algorithm of AltGosling creates various descriptions including a tree-structured navigable panel. We co-designed AltGosling with a blind screen reader user (co-author). We show that AltGosling outperforms state-of-the-art large language models and common image-based neural networks for alt text generation of genomics data visualizations. As a first of its kind in genomic research, we lay the groundwork to increase accessibility in the field.Availability and implementation: The source code, examples, and interactive demo are accessible under the MIT License at https://github.com/gosling-lang/altgosling.

Leveraging Artificial Intelligence for Systematic Reviews: The FRAISR Reporting Framework and guidance for researchers
Authors: Degen Ben , Vogel Sebastian , Rzejak Daniela
Published: June 2024

Systematic Reviews (SR) are crucial in synthesizing research findings, yet they are resource-intensive and prone to errors in critical steps like screening and data extraction. Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers potential in conducting SRs by decreasing time needed, reducing errors, and streamlining processes. This paper proposes a novel AI Guidance and Reporting Framework for Systematic Reviews, addressing the challenges inherent in traditional SR methodologies and the opaque nature of AI models. Existing frameworks for SRs are discussed, and the proposed AI framework, and its usage in a machine-readable format presented. Key challenges and attempts to use AI in each stage of a SR are highlighted, including known limitations to guide future research. By proposing this framework, it is intended to standardize AI application in SRs, fostering ethical and efficient research practices and advancing the field towards more robust and transparent methodologies.

Supervised Learning, Unsupervised Learning, and Reinforcement Learning (RL) are the three main categories of Machinelearning (ML). Supervised learning involves pre-training a model on a labeled dataset. On the other hand, in unsupervisedlearning, the model is trained on unlabeled data.In contrast, RL is motivated by evaluating feedback rather than labels. Here, the agent learns the optimal pathfor solving sequential decision-making problems by interacting with the environment and taking the most suitable course ofaction in a given situation in order to maximize the reward. The RL agent makes its own decisions on how to complete atask. Additionally, there is no training data; as a result, the agent learns by accumulating experience. RL has applications ina wide variety of fields, including natural sciences, transportation, finance, and engineering, as well as smart grids, robotics,and healthcare.
Cooperation in a Noisy Room - Multi Agent Reinforcement Learning in the Presence of Communication Noise

Published: June 2024

Collective intelligence is a crucial feature of a variety of living species. It has enabled them to survive in a wide variety ofenvironments around the world. Collective intelligence is necessary to handle difficult survival concerns, from simpleorganizations in ant colonies to sophisticated systems in human society. Humans, too, are social animals who share theirexperiences with one another, and this communication helps them evolve in such a way that they do not make the samemistakes as other humans.When it comes to intelligent agents, the same scenario is repeated. Intelligent agents can operate in both independentand cooperative modes. The goal of this study is to compare the two systems and see how the efficiency of a systemchanges when cooperative agents instead of autonomous ones are used. After that, we’ll look at how these cooperativeagents communicate in an ideal environment and in an environment where noise is present in their communication.This study will look at how agents behave in noisy situations and how their communication breaks down whenthe signal-to-noise ratio rises. This study describes how cooperative agents outperform independent agents, what analogies amulti-agent system might use to interact, how such systems connect to a human-like scenario, and how all of these elementscan be implemented.
Is there a cure for the Turker blues? A randomized controlled trial of a digital intervention for depression in adult online workers
Authors: Peipert Allison , Lorenzo-Luaces Lorenzo
Published: June 2024

Online workers, individuals who participate in crowdsourced online work, experience greater internalizing symptoms than the general population. This phenomenon, has been dubbed the “Turker blues.” Three well-powered trials of online interventions failed to find statistical or clinically significant treatment effects in this population with single-session interventions (SSI). Objective: We conducted a nationwide fully remote 2-arm randomized controlled trial to test the efficacy of a self-guided online low-intensity treatment (LIT) for depression in online workers. The intervention was a 4-week behavioral activation (BA) program designed as part of the Common Element Toolbox (COMET). Methods: 804 online workers were randomized to COMET-BA or a waitlist control (WLC). Self-report measures of depression, anxiety, subjective well-being, behavioral activation, psychosocial function, and emotion regulation were collected weekly for 4 weeks, 1-week post-intervention, then at a 1-month follow-up. Results: There was a significant time-by-treatment interaction during the intervention phase on the study, suggesting those in the COMET-BA arm improved significantly more than those in the WLC, with a small-medium effect on depression symptoms (SMD=-0.32; 95% CI: -0.47, -0.17). All but two outcomes demonstrated significant improvement. Improvements were maintained during the 1-month follow-up period. Conclusion: BA may be effectively delivered as an unguided online intervention for depression.
Getting a Lift: The Impact of Aerial Cable Cars in La Paz, Bolivia
Authors: Martinez Sebastian , Sanchez Raul , Yañez-Pagans Patricia

This paper studies the effects of aerial cable cars on mode of transport, time use, and employment in the metropolitan area of La Paz, Bolivia. Using an instrumental variables approach, we estimate local average treatment effects of cable car use for residents who use the system due to proximity to a cable car station. Results suggest that cable car users substitute private transport in favor of public transit and experience large savings in commute time, which is reallocated toward educational activities. Users also increase self-employment activities, potentially reflecting improved access to local labor markets. The positive effects of the cable car are driven by residents of El Alto, a city with a high concentration of poor and indigenous households on the high plateau bordering La Paz. The economic benefits of the cable car outweigh the costs by a ratio of 1.05 to 2.16.

Формування професійної іншомовної компетентності майбутнього педагога в умовах дуальної освіти
Authors: Ліпатов Володимир , Попова Людмила
Published: June 2024

У статті розглядається актуальність питання формування іншомовної компетентності майбутнього вчителя в умовах професійної підготовки в системі дуальної освіти. Дослідження важливості володіння іноземними мовами в професійній підготовці в контексті дуальної освіти має важливе значення для вирішення сучасних освітніх проблем, інформування про політику та розробку навчальних програм, підвищення показників працевлаштування, сприяння міжкультурному взаєморозумінню та внеску в освітні дослідження. У світі, що стає все більш взаємопов’язаним, розуміння ролі іноземної мовної компетенції в підготовці вчителів може допомогти вирішити проблеми, пов’язані з мовним різноманіттям і багатокультурністю в освітніх установах. У цьому дослідженні виокремлюється значення іноземної мовної компетенції в контексті дуальної освіти для майбутніх учителів. Оскільки глобальний освітній простір розвивається, вимоги стають дедалі різноманітнішими, здатність ефективно спілкуватися кількома мовами є важливою для вчителів, щоб підтримувати навчання студентів і співпрацювати з колегами з різних мов. Завдяки підходу дуальної освіти майбутні вчителі можуть розвивати практичні навички та теоретичні знання, одночасно сприяючи володінню іноземною мовою та міжкультурному розумінню. Спираючись на відповідну літературу та емпіричні дослідження українських та зарубіжних вчених, це дослідження вивчає роль іноземної мовної компетенції в підготовці вчителів та її наслідки для практики в класі. Крім того, у дослідженні аналізуються переваги та проблеми інтеграції навчання іноземних мов у програми подвійної освіти, наголошуючи на важливості узгодження вивчення мови з професійним розвитком і контекстом реального навчання. Зрештою, це дослідження має на меті зробити внесок у поточний дискурс щодо ефективної підготовки вчителів та просування багатомовності в освіті. До дослідження формування професійної іншомовної компетентності майбутніх учителів у дуальній освіті можна підійти з різних позицій, зокрема, розглядаючи лінгвістичну, педагогічну, соціокультурну та когнітивну перспективи. Вивчення зв’язку між володінням іноземною мовою та можливістю працевлаштування майбутніх учителів, перспективами кар’єри та професійним зростанням може підкреслити важливість мовних навичок на ринку праці.
Науково-освітні пріоритети використання штучного інтелекту для формування військового потенціалу України
Authors: Марків Олександра , Зарівна Оксана , Марків Іван
Published: June 2024

Стаття присвячена революційному явищу сучасного світу – штучному інтелекту в освітянській сфері. У дослідженні здійснено теоретичний аналіз можливих напрямків прогресивного розвитку освіти з використанням штучного інтелекту, зокрема орієнтуючись на забезпечення процесів удосконалення та нарощення військового потенціалу країни. Такий підхід надзвичайно актуальний, оскільки в нашій державі триває повномасштабна війна, в якій активно використовується ШІ. Для цього проаналізовано: 1) передовий науковий та практичний досвід щодо визначення та обґрунтування поняття «штучний інтелект»; 2) аналіз концептуальних засад саме в українському суспільстві; 3) опрацьовано можливу Стратегію розвитку штучного інтелекту в Україні; 4) узагальнено аспекти використання ШІ у військових технологіях та відповідно, які освітні пріоритети мають відповідати військовим системам і операціям; 5) визначено освітні моделі формування належного кадрового потенціалу для військової сфери, а саме: відкритий реєстр актуальних фундаментальних та прикладних проблем і завдань; пріоритетне впровадження моделі дуальної магістратури та аспірантури в сфері ШІ; стартапова інфраструктура; міждисциплінарний підхід; заохочення діяльності науковців.  
Значну увагу приділено визначенню широких практичних можливостей використання штучного інтелекту у військових цілях, однак військові системи зі штучним інтелектом також піднімають деякі інші фундаментальні, соціальні і геополітичні проблеми, для осмислення яких обов’язково потрібна співпраця людського розуму з ШІ.
Автори акцентують, що для ефективного освоєння штучного інтелекту необхідні фундаментальні і прикладні дослідження, системна, конвергентна, колабораційна участь наукових, правових, інноваційних інститутів, цілеспрямована діяльність держави і бізнесу для визначення всіх потенцій ШІ як безпрецендентної можливості досягнення технологічних переваг.
