O papel da liberdade na crítica à economia feudal em Smith
Authors: De Mesquita Silveira Matheus
Published: June 2024

A contribuição de Smith para a discussão sobre economia de mercado e sua relação com moral e política é discutida no presente artigo. É argumentado que a abordagem econômica do autor é incorporada ao conceito de liberdade natural e que o livre-comércio representa sua resposta ao sistema feudal para prevenir corrupção e desigualdade. O texto concentra-se na reconstrução da defesa econômica do filósofo escocês em relação à economia de mercado, incluindo suas críticas às políticas regulatórias de salários, sistema de guildas e provisão de grãos. É tratado que essas políticas violam normas de justiça e liberdade individuais e impedem o crescimento econômico. A liberdade individual é defendida por Smith como um direito natural e configura uma forma de emancipação das relações de dominação na esfera econômica. Em suma, é oferecida pelo artigo uma perspectiva geral sobre como o autor emprega os conceitos de liberdade e bem-estar econômico para defender a reforma liberal contra as práticas mercantis feudais.
Maat e as origens da filosofia em Kemet (Egito)
Authors: Da Silva Francisco Jose
Published: June 2024

A civilização kemética ou egípcia é uma das primeiras grandes culturas do mundo antigo, remontando a tempos imemoriais. Kemet (Egito) é conhecido por seus monumentos grandiosos, as pirâmides, bem como por sua crença na imortalidade da alma, a qual dedicavam todo um culto e um livro específico para as cerimonias e fórmulas no pós vida, o Livro dos Mortos. Além destas referências fundamentais devemos incluir ainda sua compreensão da ordem cósmica e sua eficiência na vida humana, daí o conceito fundamental de Maat (ordem, justiça e verdade). Maat é representada como uma divindade, filha de Rá, esposa de Toth, mas principalmente como um conceito filosófico que está na base de toda sua cultura e pensamento. Pretendemos apresentar este conceito nos períodos históricos da civilização egípcia, presente na literatura sapiencial (Sebayt), como base para sua constituição como princípio fundante da filosofia egípcia (kemética), e, por extensão, das filosofias em África e sua influência entre os gregos.
The Religious Aspect of Confucianism During The Ly-Tran Dynasties, Vietnam
Authors: Nguyen Nhu , Nguyen Quyet
Published: June 2024

This article explores the religious dimensions of Confucianism during the Ly-Tran dynasties (1009-1400 AD) in Vietnam, a period marked by significant sociopolitical and cultural transitions. Initially introduced as a moral and ethical philosophy from China, Confucianism underwent a complex process of localization, blending with indigenous Vietnamese beliefs and practices as well as Buddhism and Taoism. Through historical records, literary works, and ritual practices documented in “The Complete Annals of Đại Việt” and other classical texts, this study delves into how Confucianism not only served as a guiding principle for governance, education, and social norms but also manifested religious aspects that influenced spiritual and religious life in Vietnam. The religious aspects of Confucianism during this era are evident in several key areas. Firstly, the concept of Heaven (Tian) and the Mandate of Heaven played a crucial role in legitimizing royal authority, with rulers and Confucian scholars frequently invoking divine will to justify political actions and social order. This sacralization of monarchy underpinned by Confucian ideals facilitated the integration of Confucianism into Vietnamese spiritual life. Secondly, the incorporation of Confucian rituals and practices, such as the Heaven Worship Ceremony (Tế Giao) and the veneration of Confucius and other sages at the Temple of Literature, highlights the religious dimensions of Confucian practice, emphasizing reverence, filial piety, and the moral obligations of rulers and subjects alike. Moreover, the article discusses how Confucianism interacted with and was influenced by Buddhism and Taoism, leading to a syncretic religious landscape in Vietnam. This interaction is illustrated through the blending of Confucian principles with Buddhist and Taoist ideals, affecting notions of kingship, governance, and the cosmological order. In conclusion, the religious aspect of Confucianism during the Ly-Tran dynasties significantly contributed to the shaping of Vietnamese identity, governance, and cultural heritage. By examining the religious dimensions of Confucianism, this article provides a more nuanced understanding of its role in Vietnamese society, highlighting the complex interplay between philosophy, religion, and politics in historical Vietnam.
Qual é a Grécia de Heidegger? um diálogo com Hegel e Hölderlin
Authors: Coelho Marina
Published: June 2024

O objetivo deste trabalho é entender de que modo Heidegger se insere na tradição referente à filosofia alemã de retomada da Grécia Antiga e de que modo, como crítico da metafísica, este autor se diferencia dessa mesma tradição, possuindo uma maneira diversa de se relacionar com a Grécia pré-platônica a partir de seu pensamento da história. Para isso, retomamos alguns pontos chaves da relação filosófica entre Grécia e Alemanha, com intuito de estabelecer um diálogo entre Heidegger, Hölderlin e Hegel acerca do modo de entender a Grécia antiga como ponto importante na constituição da filosofia da história de cada autor, articulada pela relação entre antiguidade e modernidade. Justifica-se a escolha destes autores pela pretensão de entender a originalidade da concepção heideggeriana da Grécia, pois Hegel é o autor, pertencente ao idealismo alemão de maior influência, mesmo que confrontativamente, no pensamento da história de Heidegger; já Hölderlin é o poeta mediador da relação entre Heidegger e os gregos, além de autor excêntrico à metafísica, segundo Heidegger. Ao longo do texto, procura-se também aplicar a tese de Ricoeur de que a concepção alemã da Grécia varia entre a clássica e a arcaica e pode assumir tonalidades de nostalgia ou de luto.

Ultrasonic Material Recognition of Surrounding Objects for Robot Based on CNN-LSTM-GRU Method
Authors: Geng Tao , Pu Jing , Zhu Bo , Zhang Jinpeng , Yun Xialun , Wang Xiaodong , Zhang Jia
Published: July 2024

In extreme environments which are dusty, dark, of direct sunlight, or filled with flammable gases, robots can not use common perception methods such as lidar and camera to obtain external environmental information, and also can not identify the surrounding environment’s material information accurately. Therefore, ultrasonic technology is applied to cope with this problem for its adaptability in severe environments. In this article, we propose an non-contact material recognition method for robots based on deep learning models and data augmentation. We present an empirical mode decomposition-white gaussian noise (EMD-WGN) data augmentation procedure. We propose a convolutional neural network-long short-term memory network-gated recurrent unit network (CNN-LSTM-GRU) for various material identification based on ultrasonic echo signals, and the proposed model combines deep feature extraction and sequence’s long-term dependency efficiently. The performance of the proposed model is compared with other deep learning models, such as LSTM, CNN-LSTM, LSTM-GRU, etc. The experimental results show that the CNN-LSTM-GRU model is more effective and efficient than others by using the same hardware and dataset. The proposed non-contact material recognition method demonstrates higher accuracy and efficiency in ultrasonic material identification compared with the existing methods.
Optimizing Computing Efficiency and Performance Fairness in Federated Learning
Authors: Liao Di
Published: July 2024

Federated learning allows participants to complete joint training without having to share data directly, which is effective in solving the data silo problem and also protects clients’ privacy. However, in practice, training time is limited and the variation in data quality per device can be significant, which will cause a significant impact on the performance of the global model. There are now a number of studies optimized for fairness and efficiency. However, these current methods fail to take into account data quality while considering fairness and efficiency. In this paper, a new aggregation method and local data point selection method are proposed. Experiments show that in both the FMNIST and MNIST datasets, in the ideal case our method performs closest to the baseline method FedAvg. Compared to fairness baselines like FedFa and q-Fl, the fairness of our method is in no way diminished. And our local data point selection algorithm makes the training of the same framework significantly faster in the first 15 rounds.
Genetic Algorithm with Quality of Population Evolution for Mobile Robot Path Planning Problem
Authors: Xu Chao , Tan Jianjun , Jiao Jie , Long Yang , Abouomar Mahmoud S.
Published: July 2024

To address the slow convergence speed of genetic algorithms (GAs) in solving the mobile robot path planning problem, this study proposes a genetic algorithm with quality of population evolution (QPEGA). In QPEGA, the population is divided into two subpopulations based on the quality of individuals, and the quality of each subpopulation is defined. The crossover and mutation probabilities of each subpopulation are dynamically adjusted to enhance the algorithm’s solving quality. Additionally, the optimal parameter combination for the algorithm is determined using the orthogonal experimental method. To evaluate the performance of QPEGA, a comparison is made with standard GA and adaptive genetic algorithm (AGA). The planning results are subjected to Friedman test at a 95% confidence interval, and the experimental findings demonstrate that QPEGA outperforms the comparative algorithms and exhibits significant advantages in solving the path planning problem.

Injection of Chemicals Into Irrigation Systems: Rates, Volumes, and Injection Periods
Authors: Clark Gary A. , Haman Dorota Z. , Zazueta F. S.
Published: July 2024

Irrigation systems play a crucial role in delivering soluble chemicals to crops through a process known as chemigation. This method allows for precise application of chemicals to either the root zone or aerial parts of plants, or both. Specialized equipment is required for chemigation, with various injection methods available. Selecting appropriate equipment, maintaining it regularly, and operating it correctly are essential for a successful chemigation system. New irrigation system designs must consider chemical compatibility, while existing systems should be examined for uniformity and compatibility with injected chemicals. Water quality is also important, with some supplies requiring treatment to prevent clogging. This document focuses on the management aspects of chemigation and its implications for overall irrigation management.
Authorship Attribution of English Poetry using Sentiment Analysis
Authors: Ivanov Lubomir , Perez Felix
Published: July 2024

We present a basic methodology and share some interesting results from experiments on using sentiment analysis for authorship attribution of poetry. We demonstrate that sentiment analysis can be effectively used to determine the authorship of poetic works given a sufficiently large training corpus. We also share some promising preliminary results from sentiment-analysis-based attribution of non-poetry works. Most results compare well with traditional authorship attribution approaches. Moreover, adding sentiment analysis to a traditional-feature-based ensemble classifier improved the accuracy of attribution. The strengths and limitations of our methodology and directions for further research are outlined at the end of the paper.
Tip of the Spear: Developing Predictive Military Planning Tools Using Hidden Markov Models
Authors: Litvinas Matthew
Published: July 2024

The evolution of the modern battlefield is increasingly complex as new technologies emerge. However, the nature of the battlefield still can be explained by Baron De Jomini’s “Grand Tactics.” Military planners’ success is in their ability to develop synergy through layering effects of a complex system at a decisive point on the battlefield. Synergistic effects require subject matter experts (SME) working in planning cells to integrate systems and units in time and space. These planning cells have large footprints and become prioritized in the opposition’s targeting cycle. Without these SMEs, planners are unable to identify the latent variables to achieve the massing of forces at the decisive point. This paper explores the application of Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) to enhance existing Correlation of Forces and Means (COFM) calculators as predictive tools in military planning. Current tools focus on a 3 to 1 force ratio for an offensive operation. They get improved through applying a force equivalent factor. The force equivalent factors are scalars that adjust relative combat power from a single main battle tank to a mechanized infantry vehicle. These tools lack the ability to identify the physics of the battlefield in time and space. The utilization of wargames during planning and training provides a venue for serious games to improve planning tools. It allows a visualization of target pairing and dynamics that a linear equation would miss. This study employs scenarios generated in OneSAF, ranging from simple platoon-level ambushes to combined arms maneuver featuring rotary wing assets requiring a shaping effort to ensure favorable COFMs. The focus of the research lies in leveraging HMMs to establish a time-series indicator of success probability using potentially observable data, with an emphasis on communication dynamics. In this study, we examine observable communication by data generated through both visual and direct contact. Through observation of contact from the friendly and opposition forces will provide a predictor of the hidden state of relative advantage, in time and space. With the data generated by the OneSAF simulation, the HMM determines the states of the operation and probability of success while minimizing required presence inside the units.

Published: July 2024

We compare the performance of machine learning methods for building predictive models to estimate the expected characteristics of hypoglycemic or low blood glucose events in type 1 diabetes patients.  We hypothesize that the rate of change of blood glucose ahead of a hypoglycemic event may affect the severity and duration of the event and investigate the utility of machine learning methods on using blood glucose rate of change, in combination with other physiological and demographic factors, to predict the minimum glucose value and the duration of a hypoglycemic event.  This work compares the performance of six state-of-the-art methods on prediction accuracy and feature selection.  Results find that XGBoost delivers the best performance in all cases.  Examination of the XGBoost feature importance scores show that glucose rate of change is the most used feature in the models generated by XGBoost.

Authors: Audi Marc , Poulin Marc , Ali Amjad
Published: July 2024

Smooth and stable commercial/business activities are the prime concern of every nation, as these activities decide the developmental routes of the economy. This study has examined the role of institutional development and policy mix in determining business freedom in developing countries. Institutional development has been measured with the help of government effectiveness and political stability. Policy mix have been measured with the help of monetary freedom and fiscal freedom. To examine the impact of explanatory variables on the explained variable, this study has used panel least squares, random effect model, and generalized method of moments. The estimated results show that fiscal freedom has a negative and significant impact on business freedom, whereas, monetary freedom has an insignificant impact on business freedom in the case of developing countries. The results show that government effectiveness, political stability, and tread freedom are encouraging business freedom in developing countries. The corporate tax has a negative and significant impact on business freedom. Empirical show that developing countries are more inclined towards non-developmental expenditures, thus to control the negative impacts of fiscal freedom developing countries needs rationalization in government expenditures. Developing countries should promote government effectiveness, political stability, and trade freedom to enhance business freedom. To control the negative impacts of corporate taxes, developing countries should rationalize tax policies to promote business freedom.

Objective: As a result of the 2023 Kahramanmaraş earthquake, medical institutions experienced a large influx of patients requiring acute multidisciplinary surgical and medical care. This study aimed to evaluate the patient demographics and treatment management of survivors admitted to our reconstructive plastic surgery department.
Materials and Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the age, sex, time under the wreckage, time of admission, types and locations of injuries, treatment modalities, receipt of hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and receipt of vacuum-assisted closure therapy of the earthquake victims referred to our department.
Results: The definitive management of all 42 earthquake survivors admitted to our department was reviewed. This included five free flaps, four regional flaps, 18 split-thickness skin grafts, and one maxillofacial fracture repair. Eight patients were treated conservatively including two with non-displaced maxillofacial fractures. Of the 26 patients treated for lower extremity injuries, four were already amputees. Among the remaining 22 patients with such injuries, one underwent Charcot amputation plus free flap reconstruction to preserve extremity length and one underwent below-the-knee amputation. Of the 16 upper extremity injuries, two patients referred with extensive forearm necrosis underwent forearm amputation. To preserve extremity length and ensure the limbs were suitable for biomechanical orthoses, free transverse upper gracilis musculocutaneous flaps and free chimeric Anterolateral- Vastus Lateralis musculocutaneous flaps were performed.
Conclusion: This study illustrates the value of multi-modal reconstructive plastic surgery in the treatment of disaster survivors, particularly in the management of multi-trauma.

Published: June 2024

Gastrocnemius Strain is a painful condition of partial tearing of the medial belly of the gastrocnemius, caused by overstretching the muscle by concomitant ankle dorsiflexion and full knee extension. Contributory factors are muscle fatigue and degenerative changes [1].
The purpose of the case study is to present a case of Gastrocnemius Strain, who underwent physiotherapy department. The 35 years male was having pain in the left calf muscle for last eight days. According to the patient the pain started while running in the field for practicing for an upcoming sports event. He felt sudden acute pain in the left leg, followed by swelling after he placed his left heel on the field. He went to consult a physiatrist in a private hospital nearby. During examination, in clinic there was swelling, tenderness around the middle & lower part of left Gastrocnemius muscle. There was increase pain in the leg during dorsiflexion of left foot, both active & passive. He was unable bear full weight on the affected limb. Measurement of right & left Gastrocnemius muscle was 38 cm & 40 cm respectively, from 8 cm below tip of patella. The Thompson squeeze test was negative though it was painful. He was walking in non-weight bearing pattern using walker. M.R.I report suggested, there was fluid collection in left calf muscle, between Soleus & medial head of Gastrocnemius, most prominent at the myotendinous junction. There was also tear with oedema in anterior fibres of left mid & distal part of lateral head of Gastrocnemius & anterior fibres of distal part of medial head of Gastrocnemius.

The subject matter of the article is the thermophysical and mechanical properties of surface layers of structural materials using a quantum-mechanical approach. The aim of the article is to adjust the parameters of the heat conductivity and thermoelasticity problem, considering all possible external and internal thermal effects and the quantum-mechanical description of the material structure, for electrodes in vacuum-arc nanostructuring. The task to be solved is to perform calculations using the developed model for a copper cathode considering the energy spent on the formation of nanoparticles during ion-plasma processing with oxygen ions. The methods used are methods for solving nonlinear problems. The following results were obtained. 1. The nature of the dependencies of the maximum temperature, the expected volume of nanostructures, and the maximum depth of their formation on the energy of oxygen ions with charges z = 1 and z = 2 matches previously known dependencies obtained by the classical model, but under quantum-mechanical consideration, the maximum temperature values increase by 15%, the volume of the nanocluster increases by 50%, and the maximum depth of its occurrence increases by 1.5 times. 2. When selecting the parameters of ion-plasma processing for obtaining nanostructures with ion energies 100...500 eV, the previously proposed model with general thermophysical and mechanical properties of structural materials can be used. 3. For technologies with ion energies in the range of 103...2∙103 eV, the previously proposed model can be used but with quantum-mechanical effects of structural materials considered. 4) For technologies with ion energies above 104 eV, calculations should be performed using both approaches (the classical approach and the approach considering the quantum-mechanical properties of structural materials), and after comparison, the variant whose calculation results are closest to the experimental results should be used. Conclusions. The proposed theoretical model using the thermophysical, mechanical, and quantum-mechanical properties of structural materials can be used to adjust the technological parameters of ion-plasma processing to assess the formation of nanostructures in protective and strengthening coatings.

The technology of building CubeSat-class nanosatellites has created a breakthrough in exploring near space for research and education. The availability of commercial solutions for the rapid integration of hardware and software of a CubeSat under development and the launch of such a nano-satellite into Earth orbit as a parasitic payload has made this technology accessible and attractive to universities worldwide. Despite this popularity, the statistics of nanosatellite failures after launch require a systematic approach to their design and construction and the selection of off-the-shelf (COTS) components. The object of the study is to determine the overall efficiency of standardized network interfaces when used in the onboard network of CubeSat nanosatellites. The subject of the article is a method for comprehensively evaluating the effectiveness of standardized network interfaces for data exchange in the onboard network of CubeSat nanosatellites, taking into account typical scenarios for data and command exchange. The aim of the study was to substantiate the method of expert evaluation of the technical efficiency of standardized network interfaces for data exchange in the onboard network of CubeSat nanosatellites, taking into account the following factors: energy efficiency, multi-mastering capability, resistance to electromagnetic interference, redundancy, coverage following the OSI network model, data transmission speed, and complexity of network technology implementation by software. Objectives: To analyze modern methods of organizing onboard avionics networks of nanosatellites of the CubeSat class, formulate an expert comparison model, and compare the selected information onboard networks following the model and the list of selected networks and their protocols. Results: an expert model consisting of a 7-factor comparison was created, modern and most widely used in the industry onboard networks were selected, and each network was compared according to the proposed model. Conclusions: The two most common and efficient models, I2C and CAN, were selected as recommended for use in the avionics of the KhAI1Sat nanosatellite and the “Boryviter”/”Falco” onboard computer being developed by the authors. Although the difference in power consumption between these two types of networks is significant, each has certain advantages in terms of noise immunity, multicasting, and application.
