The main aim of digital image segmentation for portioned the image in to its constituents parts for getting information regarding features of image also used to get pathological details from medical images. The literature available from last two decades the important scheme for image segmentation is with Level Set technique, multilevel thresholding of gray scale on histogram of image is also a traditional method of image segmentation. In this paper low contrast images from medical and satellite images considered for image segmentation to extract features. This paper puts forward a novel image segmentation method via Level Set Function along with Bi-Histogram Equalization based on Harmony Search Algorithm(LSFBHEHS). The Selective Binary and Gaussian Filtering Regularised Level Set (SBGFRLS) is efficient novel region based Active Contour Model, it uses a novel region-based signed pressure force (SPF) function, it can adeptly halt the contours at blurred edges and weak edges. Other important advantage is internal and external boundaries can be distinguished by fixing the initial contour may be anyplace in the considered image. This method is resourceful but requires more time and inefficient for segmentation of low contrast images. This problem is rectified by applying bi-histogram equalization(BHE) image enhancement method prior to Level Set, it can be treated as pre-processing. In BHE technique of image enhancement, the image histogram is partitioned into two divisions based optimized gray level threshold , and equalize each part of histogram separately and combined later. To find the optimized threshold level to slice the histogram into two parts, Otsu’s multilevel thresholding method used to find threshold level, to find optimized thresholding level Harmony Search Algorithm(HSA) is implemented to maximize inert class variance as objective function. For evaluating the proposed method and SBGFRLS, the qualitative measured used like Dice similarity index, Measure of Enhancement(EME) and time required, for experimentation numerous low contrast satellite and medical images are considered, results clarified that the proposed method is more efficient for low contrast and inhomogeneous images.

Sequential pattern mining is a data mining approach; aims to discover common interesting patterns in sequence datasets, which attracted a significant research interest due to its real world applications in various fields such as web click stream mining, retail business, stock market and bio-informatics. Each sequence in sequence dataset is composed of time ordered events and each event is an item set. It discovers all frequent subsequences having frequency greater than the given minimum support threshold. Discovering sequential patterns is expensive with respect to mining time as well as the amount of memory used, because of aggressive search space growth due to generation of explosive number of frequent subsequences with the sequence length as well as count of distinct items and large volume of sequence dataset. So, research in this domain aims at developing effective data structures which address frequency counting and large search space as well as scalable algorithms to reduce the execution time and the amount of memory utilized. We propose two efficient data structures called Pre-order Post-order Coded Aggregate Tree (PPCA-Tree) for compact representation of the sequence dataset and Root-node List of First-Occurrence Sub Trees Map (RLFOST-Map) for efficient representation of projected databases. We also developed an efficient Partially ordered Sequential PAttern Mining algorithm called PSPAM and Parallel implementation of Partially ordered Sequential PAttern Mining algorithm called PAPSPAM based on PPCA-Tree using RLFOST-Map which eliminates reconstruction of the projected databases. Experimental analysis done on various synthetic datasets proves that our algorithms PSPAM and PAPSPAM outperform prefixspan and other conventional & state-of-the-art algorithms over dense datasets with better scalability.

The advantage of storing infinite data without giving any attentiontothe available storage restrictions and the liberty that one possesses to use those data when needed from anywhere in the globe, makes cloud environment the most ideal technology. Cloud hadalso became the preferred platform for storing and transferring the intendeddata. Both individuals and organizations were much comfortable in letting their sensitive data across their own generated cloud environments. But apart from the advantages that the cloud environments have imparted, it also have its own limitations. Limitations like risk of maintaining user’s data privacy, integrity, confidentiality and safety were normally existing while using the cloud environments. Besides allof the above said challenges, transferring of data from organization to cloud servers was considered with major importancein many evolving works. Several algorithms and encryption techniques have been developed currently for securing the operation of data transmission. Along this way, this paper proposes a design for thecloud framework that guarantees secured data transmission to serverfrom the source. This paper utilizes an approach called Honey Bee algorithm for encrypting and decrypting the datato be transmitted to the server. This algorithm is basically an encryption scheme which provides flexibility againstthe potential attacks by delivering a reasonable-looking text. But, the reasonable-looking text is a kind ofplain text generated for every wrong key used by an attacker for decrypting the message. Here a count of five keys will be generatedby the PRNG algorithmright after matching the OTP keys, which will be thenrandomly sent to users. The generated five keys aredeployed to promote additional security by the operation of anonymizationagainst the intruderstrying to access the data while under transmission. Here, in this proposed methodology,user cannot view all of his/her information, whereas the admin can have the full privilege of viewing all information about a user.Furthermore, performance metrics such as Key generation time, Encryption time, Decryption time and Message time were taken for the performance analysis to validate the performance of this proposed methodology with the existing considered methodologies.

With many advantages, nowadays, the structure using tubular steel structure is more and more widely used in all kinds of construction. In response to the rapid development of the tubular steel structure, it has been had a lot of research about the ring flange – bolts joints of this structure. Welding joints and ring flange – bolts joint are used most popular in tubular structure. However the joints using flanges and bolts are only mentioned in the case of simple load bearing such as tension or compression or bending without computational instructions in the case of complex bearing forces (concurrent shear force and bending or concurrent tension/compression and bending or tension/compression and twisting). The study outlines the behavioral rules for joints of tubular structure using ring flange – bolts joint in the case of concurrent shear force and bending, thereby proposing the rational parameters of the joint (the relationship between the thickness of the flange, the diameter of the bolt and thickness of steel tubes).

Published: November 2019

Disorder of autistic spectrum has a high rate of spread in Russia and the world. Russian statistics is subject to deformities in relation to the disease. People diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder and their families are socially excluded. It manifests itself in the institutional plane and in the discursive media space. In the institutional environment, positive changes occur to solve the problem: the work of public organizations and special - virtual and real - social media platforms are intensifying, the information space of messages and news about autism is increasing, the conservative state system is gradually transforming measures of social and educational policies in an inclusive manner. However, at the institutional level of the mass media and public opinion, a wary and often prejudiced attitude towards people and children with mental disorders continues to persist. Among all types of disabilities, mental disorders are the most discriminated. This prevents the implementation of measures of social inclusion by civil society institutions and the state. Intensive informational and educational work with the Russian population is required to overcome myths and stereotypes regarding children and adults with ASD.

The institutional transformations that took place in Russia in the 1990s brought not only new patterns of behavior to different spheres of society but also a new system of value orientations. New values - the values of individualism, personal freedom, enrichment, moral relativism - are not characteristic of the Russian sociocultural tradition. Such an invasion of the value system led to a disruption in the social adaptation of a significant part of the population, which in turn provoked an increase in the number of social stress disorders, borderline states of the psyche of people between the norm and the disease (Professor Iu. A. Aleksandrovskii). Studies by Russian and foreign authors indicate the influence of affective reactions of a negative nature, depression on the development of not only addictive behavior (alcoholism, gambling, Internet addiction, etc.), but also somatic diseases (cardiovascular, diabetes, etc.). The analysis of statistical indicators revealed an increase in the deviate, addictive behavior, mortality rate in Russia, since the 1990s. The data of opinion polls show a high level of Russian depression, according to this indicator Russia ranks third among European countries. According to a number of researchers, psychopathology in the coming years will become the main cause of disability for people of active age. The scientific community considers the spread of social-stress disorders as a social problem; methods for the prevention and overcoming of stressful and depressive conditions are created and applied. The article provides an example of the Program for the Prevention of Social Stress Disorders of the candidate of psychological sciences S.M. Lady-Rus (Peunovoi), based on mastering the skills of self-regulation of the emotional state.

The mediatization of the public sphere leads to the intensification of the processes of intercultural interaction, which increases interest in new formats for reflecting the characteristics of the cultural and spiritual development of a person, one of which is ethnic documentary cinema. It allows you to widely represent the national cultures of different nations, immerse yourself in the world of a foreign culture, to reduce the degree of uncertainty arising from a foreign culture, to facilitate communication between ethnic groups. A functional and meaningful analysis of ethno-documentary films created by filmmakers of the Republic of Tatarstan in 2017-2019 allowed us to determine the features of the ethno-documentary genre. These include: the close connection of ethnic cinema with the development of academic anthropology and the need for a visual reflection of the life and culture of ethnic groups; focus on intercultural communication; the formation of the image of an ethnos on the basis of "internal observation", that is, the ability to be inside events and cultural traditions, which allows you to get away from distorting the picture. Considering the multinational aspect of the development of ethno-documentary in the Republic of Tatarstan, it was emphasized that one of the most important tasks of filmmakers in this context is to preserve the national image and identity, develop tolerance, strengthen interethnic harmony, foster respect for the culture, traditions and customs of different nationalities. The ethnic component of the documentary cinema of Tatarstan involves the historical reflection of national traditions inherent in a particular people, with an emphasis on reflecting in reality the original way of life, life, national and cultural traditions. The ethno-documentary of the Republic of Tatarstan is in a state of deep renewal, which is associated with the spread of the festival movement in Tatarstan, in particular, the work of the Kazan International Muslim Film Festival, which allows the formation of national reserves of ethno-documentary and gives impetus to the development of Tatarstan documentary films. We should talk about the special aesthetics of films, which largely borders on the principles of arthouse cinema, but fits into the mainstream of young Tatarstan cinema. It is based on the techniques of chronicling, films have a primarily social orientation in the spirit of “cinema-direct” (“direct cinema”), the Tatar alternative and performance. One of the leading functions of ethno-documentary is the communicative function, along with the integrative and research. Their implementation contributes to the comprehensive reflection of the national traditions of the Tatar people and peoples living in the Republic of Tatarstan.

The article is devoted to the phenomenon of happiness of Russian students, an understudied topic, in contrast to social well-being and its components, including satisfaction with the quality of education and the conditions for receiving it. The results of mass surveys conducted among students of Kazan in 2013-2018 are discussed. The level of happiness, along with the state of health and well-being, is a criterion for the comfort of a given society for life. By analogy with the indices of happiness, which are calculated for residents of countries and cities, the index of happiness of students is calculated. The article shows the relationship between the level of happiness and the ways of daily life of students. Comparison of the obtained data with the index of happiness of Russians shows opposite trends: the index of happiness of Russians from 2013 to the present has been growing steadily, while the index of happiness of students - decreasing. This is probably due to the constant reform of the higher education system and its ambiguous consequences. There are alternative forms of education in addition to the traditional. It can be concluded that the level of students 'happiness is a complex, multi-level phenomenon, which is mainly subjective in nature and depends on many factors, the main of which, in addition to health, are the realistic prospects for professional self-realization, as well as the conditions of students' daily life.

Published: November 2019

Digital economy brings new opportunities and threats to modern reality, covering almost all the fields of life of the population, including education. Digital economy opens up new strengths and weaknesses of a university. In this regard, a relevant task is to determine a set of goals for the development of the university and ensure movement towards these goals. The transition from the University 3.0 model to the University 4.0 model involves a comprehensive transformation of all processes in a university. Taking into account that the innovative educational and entrepreneurial activities played a leading role in the previous model, it is advisable, first of all, to ensure the digital transformation of these processes during the transition to the new model. An important factor in ensuring the competitiveness of a modern university is the digitalisation of its services. In the modern realities of the development of digital economy, universities are facing the need for digital transformation, the essence of which is based not only on the introduction of digital technologies in the activities of universities, but also on the cultural and organisational changes. The main features of the digitalisation process of the universities shall be: the university's orientation on the implementation of “smart manufacturing”; the use of digital communication technologies in the educational process; the introduction of network and distance learning; the development of basic information services; the creation and implementation of the “digital university management” service. Thus, digital transformation of the universities will make it possible for teachers, students, applicants and partners to provide more opportunities in the context of digitalisation. The transformation is impossible without the development and implementation of a digitalisation strategy that takes into account the features and specific nature of the university.

The housing problem remains one of the most acute and socially significant, since the possibility of acquiring and improving housing conditions for citizens becomes difficult and impossible to achieve without state support. In particular, a decrease in housing affordability is associated with the quality and growth in the cost per square meter of housing, the tax burden and the annual increase in housing maintenance costs. Nevertheless, the main criterion characterizing the growth of reproduction and ensuring the comfort of living is the income level of the population. Housing is a social criterion and an indicator of the life quality of the population, affecting labor productivity, growth in gross domestic product, dynamics of demographic processes, and economic activity of the population. Undoubtedly, the availability of housing is the main indicator of the economic and social development of the state. Unfortunately, despite the positive dynamics of the housing affordability indicator, there are a number of problems that need to be addressed within the framework of the formation of comfortable housing. And also, it is necessary to introduce the affordability barriers to understand the complexity of creating an affordable housing market. In this article, the authors present a model for increasing housing affordability, taking into account an accurate assessment of the possibility of its acquisition. In addition, we offer a solution to this socio-economic problem by supporting the development of housing cooperation, which shall be expressed in the formation of new legal institutions and instruments that contribute to the guaranteed accumulation of funds by citizens for the acquisition of real estate.

The paper presents the results of a number of author's studies on the possibilities of using new media and the Internet to design innovative social reality in the conditions of such a polyethnoconfessional region as the Republic of Tatarstan. Using an example of an analysis of online discussion and practices around two problematic cases (the obligation to learn the Tatar language by schoolchildren of the republic and the construction of a new incinerator in the territory of Tatarstan), we managed to obtain results, firstly, regarding typical areas of using the Internet by users, and models for their responding to online information; secondly, an assessment of the main sources of information about the Republic of Tatarstan in the network, representations of the positive and negative aspects of the life in the republic in the context of online discussion; thirdly, to identify groups of factors that determine the degree of activity demonstrated by users of social networks online and offline; and, finally, describe strategies for linking online and offline activity when discussing socially significant problems of the republic. The conclusions indicate the factors and necessary conditions for mobilizing users of online discussions for specific actions outside the Internet (participating in meetings, flash mobs, and charity events, joining various kinds of communities, and establishing new personal contacts).
On The Question of the Role of Sufism among Tatars of the Late XIX Early XX : Zainullah Rasulev's Fawaid Al Muhimma”
Authors:   Kazan Federal University, Kazan, Russia, Khamidov* Evgeny , Khamidova Chulpan ,   Institute of Language, Literature and Art
Published: November 2019

The study of Tatar Muslim literature is an important part of studying the specifics of Islam in Russia. One of the books related to Islam and published in large numbers is “Fawaid al-muhimma” written by Zainullah Rasulev. This book, published in two editions, is a detailed description of the daily spiritual practices of the Sufi from Naqshbandiya-Khalidiya tariqah. The necessity of publishing a book twice in a large circulation allows us to assume certain features of the spread of Sufism in the Volga-Ural region in the late 19th - early 20th centuries. Analysis of the contents of the book allows us to suggest the following: sheikh Zainullah Rasulev’s work “Al-fawaid al-muhimma li-l-muridin al-nakshbandiya wa avrad al-lisaniya wa al-salawat al-ma'asura” is a kind of educational and methodical guide for Muslims who entered the path of tariqa. The book contains detailed information about the daily spiritual practices of Sufi, and, perhaps, could act as a “virtual” murshid, allowing the salik (Muslim who entered the sufi path) to be outside the community of their sheikh and perform all the necessary sufi practices after personal initiation. Perhaps because of the increased popularity of Zainullah ishan there was a great demand for this kind of book, and therefore “Al-fawaid al-muhimma” became the first book published by Rasulev in print and large circulation.

The study of the specifics of the manifestation of cultural codes in Tatar poetry and prose of the second half of the 20th century is of great scientific and practical interest. The timeliness of the chosen topic is conditioned by the need to identify the uniqueness, originality of Tatar national poetry and prose of the given period. At the same time, it should be noted that Tatar poetry and prose of the period of returning to national origins has not undergone comprehensive, holistic, detailed, structural study in terms of reflecting national identity. The goal of research: systematic and comprehensive study of the creative work of Tatar writers of the second half of the 20th century in respect of the aspect of the specifics of the manifestation of the national cultural code in them, identifying the nature of literary interactions and interrelations with Russian literature. The article deals with the specifics of the implementation of the Tatar national cultural code in the works of Amirkhan Eniki, Mirgaziyan Yunys, Ravil Bukharaev, Zulfat, Robert Minnullin, Renat Haris, Hassan Tufan and Ildar Yuzeev. The works under study reflect the Tatar national worldview and contain its main components: the image of homeland and native land, national holidays, moral and spiritual values and the history of the Tatar people. They also reflect the organic connection of the creative work of these writers and poets with the Tatar national culture and literature.
Postmodern Project of Philosophy: “Social” Or “Not Social”?
Authors:   Kazan Federal University, Liberman* Samson A.
Published: November 2019

The article is devoted to the elaboration and formulation of a criterion for distinguishing between the modernist project of social philosophy, which is proposed to be called “social” and “non-social” within the framework of the article. Based on the work of such researchers as Tereshchenko N.A., Gasparyan D.E. and Karimov T.Kh. it is proposed to consider three characteristics of social relations as a criterion: the reflexive attitude of participants to existing social relations; negativity, orientation to the development and overcoming of the existing “state of affairs”, activity of participants; reductionism, the desire to single out a single foundation in society and interpret the entire variety of social facts as its manifestation. In modern society is understood as “social”: it is reflective, negative (develops) and has a foundation. Within the framework of postmodernism, society is understood as “non-social”: it is non-reflective, does not develop, and without foundation. The concept of everyday life of phenomenological sociology is considered as an example of the theory of “non-social”. It is also shown that the distinguished characteristics of “non-social” relate to many theoretical constructions in the field of social philosophy of the second half of the 20th century. And with the current question of the possibility of breaking the postmodern paradigm, when developing alternative programs for studying society (metamodern, post-postmodern, after-postmodern), these criteria should be taken into account.

The article reveals and studies the problematics and functional diversity of video game journalism in the journalistic texts of “Igromania” – one of the most popular monthly publications in modern Russia. Each issue of the journal published several articles on socially significant topics. Having studied the archives of "Igromania" (36 in total) for the period 2015-2017, we have identified 106 articles covering social issues. Using methods of continuous monitoring of “Igromania”, quantitative and substantive analysis of its articles, we found out that social problems are present in the author's columns and special sections. A large part of the media texts analysed dealt with problems related to social inequality, unemployment and discrimination. The authors of the article found that modern Russian gaming publications are different focus on social issues, which helps to expand the horizons of readers. Having studied the texts of gaming journalists of “Igromania”, we found out that there is a decrease in the critical author's assessment. Using the functional analysis, we have considered the main functions of video game journalism and concluded that it is characterized by significant irregularity in the implementation of the main functions of journalism. In addition, we found that the most common genre in the video game edition of “Igromania” is a review, you can also find notes, reports, sketches, essays and essays. These characteristics allowed to determine the effectiveness of the texts of gaming journalists “Igromania”, their problems and thematic focus. The results of our study complement and extend the findings of examples from modern practice of the Russian video game journalism research results, contained in articles and the scientific literature D. Amrich (2012), S. Anderson (2007), D. Auerbach (2014), K. Gillen (2005), J. Hall (2006), B. J. Harris (2014), M. Musgrove (2007), D. Tennant (2009).

Different types of property are characterized by different content. It is impossible to characterize all types of property with the same content. There are different attempts and proposals of different persons on the characterization of the property content. For example, subjective perceptions of the “bundle of property” are common among economists. On the contrary, one of the objective ideas about the property content, but only about single property, is widely used in the legal and other political literature. By introducing the concept of sole property as a "right of ownership, use and disposal", society and its authorities limit or regulate these activities, define "institute of sole property" by their laws. By regulating ownership, the authorities regulate the conditions of property occurrence, its recognition, its protection, security, safety of things and rights to it. By regulating the use, the authorities regulate the conditions of satisfaction of their needs by the owners without prejudice to the rights and freedoms of other citizens. By regulating the order, the authorities regulate the conditions of transferring the rights to the property to other persons, the conditions of relations between the owner and other persons, the succession. Therefore, the authors of this paper introduce ideas about modeling the property content, intended to regulate the owner's actions in order to meet his/her needs and tools to influence the socio-economic content of the property.

Youth is the most promising social stratum for any state. The processes associated with the activation of the young generation in the social and political life of the country are the most relevant within the framework of modern sociopolitical discourse. The paper reveals the issue of political activity of youth movements in the Republic of Tatarstan. The role of socio-political youth organizations in the formation of public opinion within the framework of the election campaign is revealed. The authors analyse the current state of political youth associations in the Republic of Tatarstan, their place and potential. Given a certain political passivity of the young generation in Russia, especially in the framework of electoral processes, methods of influencing its public opinion that are adequate to this target audience are of particular importance. Thus, there is an objective need for a thorough analysis of the youth communication sphere in order to identify those methods of communication with youth that will most effectively convey to it the proposed position of certain political actors. It is assumed that in the modern information society, the widespread adoption of global communication technologies, young people, as the most progressive part of society, are most affected by the communication influence of modern information platforms posted on the Internet.

The paper is devoted to the institutional analysis of the student philosophical society activity at the Kazan Theological Academy in the late XIX - early XX centuries. The study notes that the development of philosophy in a theological educational institution in itself is a contradiction since philosophy involves a critical attitude towards religion. But it was precisely at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries that interest in philosophy at Russian theological schools increased. At the same time, a philosophical circle society for students appeared only in the Kazan Theological Academy. Within the framework of our work, we use a constructionist and neoinstitutional approaches, which assume that institutions are formal and informal “rules of the game”, norms of interaction within certain social interactions. As a result, it is concluded that the activities of the student society were determined both by its charter and by those special goals set by the theological education in Russia at that time. We have determined that one of the main goals was to teach the methods of philosophical criticism of future Orthodox theologians. It is also revealed that the topics that were discussed at meetings of the philosophical society were determined by the public resonance that they had. The topics related to modern literature and religious doctrine of Leo Tolstoy were presented as the main problems for the reports. This agenda also largely depended on the research topics of the leaders of the student philosophical society who were the professors of the Kazan Theological Academy.

The article explores the question of the relation between the physical finite (existential) and spiritual infinite (essential) dimensions of the human being as the basic question of philosophical anthropology, which is analogous to the basic question of philosophy offered by F. Engels. The author claims that the question in terms of being – “which is prior?” – divides all philosophers into speculative (primacy of the infinite) and anti-speculative (primacy of the finite) thinkers. In terms of methodology the question divides them into the rationalists and irrationalists. The author comes to the conclusion that there have been four anthropological approaches – rationalistic anti-speculative, irrationalistic anti-speculative, rationalistic speculative, and irrationalistic speculative. Besides, each of them implies a particular view on the phenomenon of human spirit understood as fictitious, individual, collective, and universal, respectively. The article reviews all of them and states that they are limited due to the underlying particular methodological and worldview intentions. Hence, Kant’s question “what is the human being?” is left unanswered.
