A pupunha e uma fruta nativa da Amazonia que apresenta alto valor nutritivo, sendo utilizado na alimentacao humana. No entanto, a especificidade da area geografica de cultivo e a elevada umidade da pupunha pode, muitas vezes, dificultar a disponibilidade integral desse fruto e o acesso ao produto fresco. Nesse contexto, o objetivo desse trabalho foi avaliar o processo de secagem da pupunha e realizar modelagem matematica para determinacao das propriedades termodinamicas do processo. Foram realizadas as secagens do epicarpo (casca), mesocarpo (polpa) e endocarpo (amendoa) nas temperaturas de 60, 70 e 80oC. Os dados experimentais foram ajustados a seis modelos matematicos e calculadas as propriedades termodinamicas com base nos parametros do modelo matematico mais apropriado estatisticamente. Para o processo de secagem do epicarpo e endocarpo, a 60, 70 e 80oC, e do mesocarpo a 70 e 80oC modelo Verna gerou melhor ajuste. Para o mesocarpo a 60oC o modelo Dois Termos foi o mais adequado. Foi observado que a agua se difunde mais rapidamente na forma de vapor no epicarpo e no endocarpo se comparado a difusao no mesocarpo. A entalpia mostra que a secagem do mesocarpo necessita de mais energia e trata-se de um processo endotermico. A entropia caracteriza o processo como nao favoravel e a energia livre de Gibbs indicou a nao espontaneidade do processo.,

EXPLORANDO OS CONFLITOS DAS RELAÇÕES DE CLASSE E GÊNERO NA INGLATERRA DO SÉCULO XIX, JANE AUSTEN: UMA ESCRITORA ATEMPORAL
Authors: MARTINS MARIANA LUANA
Published: December 2020

O presente trabalho visa compreender como era a sociedade inglesa do século XIX, sob a ótica da Literatura, apresentada por aquela que é considerada por muitos como uma das maiores escritoras da língua inglesa: Jane Austen, assim como fazer uma análise de dois de seus romances mais conhecidos, que são: Orgulho e Preconceito (1813) e Emma (1816). Através da leitura dessas obras é possível perceber descrições do cotidiano da aristocracia rural inglesa do século XIX. Além de descrever a realidade de sua época, Jane Austen tecia críticas inteligentes e sutis a essa parcela da sociedade da qual ela mesma fazia parte. Buscando revelar as críticas sociais presentes nos dois romances estudados, foi realizada uma pesquisa descritiva, em que se traçou o contexto histórico da Inglaterra desse período, evidenciando o papel da mulher na sociedade, bem como a importância dos códigos de conduta e das classes sociais para o “bom funcionamento” da época. Com isso, se observa que, mesmo tendo-se passado dois séculos desde que Austen escreveu seus romances, certos aspectos abordados por ela permanecem atemporais, pois, se retirarem a roupagem dos personagens austenianos, eles seriam facilmente reconhecíveis na sociedade atual, seja por sua conduta correta, seja por seus defeitos.

Published: December 2020

Intrusion detection into computer networks has become one of the most important issues in cybersecurity. Attackers keep on researching and coding to discover new vulnerabilities to penetrate information security system. In consequence computer systems must be daily upgraded using up-to-date techniques to keep hackers at bay. This paper focuses on the design and implementation of an intrusion detection system based on Deep Learning architectures. As a first step, a shallow network is trained with labelled log-in [into a computer network] data taken from the Dataset CICIDS2017. The internal behaviour of this network is carefully tracked and tuned by using plotting and exploring codes until it reaches a functional peak in intrusion prediction accuracy. As a second step, an autoencoder, trained with big unlabelled data, is used as a middle processor which feeds compressed information and abstract representation to the original shallow network. It is proven that the resultant deep architecture has a better performance than any version of the shallow network alone. The resultant functional code scripts, written in MATLAB, represent a re-trainable system which has been proved using real data, producing good precision and fast response.
Image Wafer Inspection based on Template Matching
Authors: Barone Massimiliano
Published: December 2020

This paper presents a template matching technique for detecting defects in VLSI wafer images. This method is based on traditional techniques of image analysis and image registration, but it combines the prior art of image wafer inspection in a new way, using prior knowledge like the design layout of VLSI wafer manufacturing process. This technique requires a golden template of the patterned wafer image under inspection which is obtained from the wafer image itself mixed to the layout design schemes. First a mapping between physical space and pixel space is needed. Then a template matching is applied for a more accurate alignment between wafer device and template. Finally, a segmented comparison is used for finding out possible defects. Results of the proposed method are presented in terms of visual quality of defect detection, any misalignment at topology level and number of correctly detected defective devices.
An Intelligent and Data-Driven Mobile Platform for Youth Volunteer Management using Machine Learning and Predictive Analytics
Authors: Huang Alyssa , Sun Yu
Published: December 2020

Volunteering is very important to high school students because it not only allows the teens to apply the knowledge and skills they have acquired to real-life scenarios, but it also enables them to make an association between helping others and their own joy of fulfillment. Choosing the right volunteering opportunities to work on can influence how the teens interact with that cause and how well they can serve the community through their volunteering services. However, high school students who look for volunteer opportunities often do not have enough information about the opportunities around them, so they tend to take whatever opportunity that comes across. On the other hand, as organizations who look for volunteers usually lack effective ways to evaluate and select the volunteers that best fit the jobs, they will just take volunteers on a first-come, firstserve basis. Therefore, there is a need to build a platform that serves as a bridge to connect the volunteers and the organizations that offer volunteer opportunities. In this paper, we focus on creating an intelligent platform that can effectively evaluate volunteer performance and predict best-fit volunteer opportunities by using machine learning algorithms to study 1) the correlation between volunteer profiles (e.g. demographics, preferred jobs, talents, previous volunteering events, etc.) and predictive volunteer performance in specific events and 2) the correlation between volunteer profiles and future volunteer opportunities. Two highest-scoring machine learning algorithms are proposed to make predictions on volunteer performance and event recommendations. We demonstrate that the two highest-scoring algorithms are able to make the best prediction for each query. Alongside the practice with the algorithms, a mobile application, which can run on both iPhone and Android platforms is also created to provide a very convenient and effective way for the volunteers and event supervisors to plan and manage their volunteer activities. As a result of this research, volunteers and organizations that look for volunteers can both benefit from this data-driven platform for a more positive overall experience.
Explainable AI for Interpretable Credit Scoring
Authors: Demajo Lara Marie , Vella Vince , Dingli Alexiei
Published: December 2020

With the ever-growing achievements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the recent boosted enthusiasm in Financial Technology (FinTech), applications such as credit scoring have gained substantial academic interest. Credit scoring helps financial experts make better decisions regarding whether or not to accept a loan application, such that loans with a high probability of default are not accepted. Apart from the noisy and highly imbalanced data challenges faced by such credit scoring models, recent regulations such as the `right to explanation' introduced by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA) have added the need for model interpretability to ensure that algorithmic decisions are understandable and coherent. An interesting concept that has been recently introduced is eXplainable AI (XAI), which focuses on making black-box models more interpretable. In this work, we present a credit scoring model that is both accurate and interpretable. For classification, state-of-the-art performance on the Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) and Lending Club (LC) Datasets is achieved using the Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) model. The model is then further enhanced with a 360-degree explanation framework, which provides different explanations (i.e. global, local feature-based and local instance-based) that are required by different people in different situations. Evaluation through the use of functionallygrounded, application-grounded and human-grounded analysis show that the explanations provided are simple, consistent as well as satisfy the six predetermined hypotheses testing for correctness, effectiveness, easy understanding, detail sufficiency and trustworthiness.
Evaluating Dutch Named Entity Recognition and De-Identification Methods in the Human Resource Domain
Authors: Toledo Chaïm van , van Dijk Friso , Spruit Marco
Published: December 2020

The human resource (HR) domain contains various types of privacy-sensitive textual data, such as e-mail correspondence and performance appraisal. Doing research on these documents brings several challenges, one of them anonymisation. In this paper, we evaluate the current Dutch text de-identification methods for the HR domain in three steps. First, by updating one of these methods with the latest named entity recognition (NER) models. The result is that the NER model based on the CoNLL 2002 corpus in combination with the BERTje transformer give the best combination for suppressing persons (recall 0.94) and locations (recall 0.82). For suppressing gender, DEDUCE is performing best (recall 0.53). Second NER evaluation is based on both strict de-identification of entities (a person must be suppressed as a person) and third evaluation on a loose sense of de-identification (no matter what how a person is suppressed, as long it is suppressed).
A Grid-Point Detection Method based on U-Net for a Structured Light System

Published: December 2020

Accurate detection of the feature points of the projected pattern plays an extremely important role in one-shot 3D reconstruction systems, especially for the ones using a grid pattern. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a grid-point detection method based on U-net. A specific dataset is designed that includes the images captured with the two-shot imaging method and the ones acquired with the one-shot imaging method. Among them, the images in the first group after labeled as the ground truth images and the images captured at the same pose with the oneshot method are cut into small patches with the size of 64x64 pixels then feed to the training set. The remaining of the images in the second group is the test set. The experimental results show that our method can achieve a better detecting performance with higher accuracy in comparison with the previous methods.
Linear Regression Evaluation of Search Engine Automatic Search Performance Based on Hadoop and R
Authors: Xiong Hong
Published: December 2020

The automatic search performance of search engines has become an essential part of measuring the difference in user experience. An efficient automatic search system can significantly improve the performance of search engines and increase user traffic. Hadoop has strong data integration and analysis capabilities, while R has excellent statistical capabilities in linear regression. This article will propose a linear regression based on Hadoop and R to quantify the efficiency of the automatic retrieval system. We use R's functional properties to transform the user's search results upon linear correlations. In this way, the final output results have multiple display forms instead of web page preview interfaces. This article provides feasible solutions to the drawbacks of current search engine algorithms lacking once or twice search accuracies and multiple types of search results. We can conduct personalized regression analysis for user’s needs with public datasets and optimize resources integration for most relevant information.
Uncertainty in aerosol radiative forcing impacts the simulated global monsoon in the 20th century
Authors: Shonk Jonathan K. P. , Turner Andrew G. , Chevuturi Amulya , Wilcox Laura J. , Dittus Andrea J. , Hawkins Ed
Published: December 2020

Abstract. Anthropogenic aerosols are dominant drivers of historical monsoon rainfall change. However, large uncertainties in the radiative forcing associated with anthropogenic aerosol emissions, as well as the dynamical response to this forcing, lead to uncertainty in the simulated monsoon response. We use historical simulations from the “SMURPHS” project, run using HadGEM3-GC3.1, in which the time-varying aerosol emissions are scaled by factors from 0.2 to 1.5 to explore the monsoon sensitivity to historical
aerosol forcing uncertainty (present-day versus preindustrial aerosol
forcing in the range −0.38 to −1.50 W m−2). The hemispheric asymmetry in emissions generates a strong relationship between scaling factor and both hemispheric temperature contrast and meridional location of tropical rainfall. Averaged over the period 1950–2014, increasing the scaling factor from 0.2 to 1.5 reduces the hemispheric temperature contrast by 0.9 ∘C, reduces the tropical summertime land–sea temperature contrast by 0.3 ∘C and shifts tropical rainfall southwards by 0.28∘ of latitude. The result is a reduction in global monsoon area by 3 % and a reduction in global monsoon intensity by 2 %. Despite the complexity of the monsoon system, the monsoon properties presented above vary monotonically and roughly linearly across scalings. A switch in the dominant influence on the 1950–1980 monsoon rainfall trend between greenhouse gases and aerosol is identified as the scalings increase. Regionally, aerosol scaling has a pronounced effect on Northern Hemisphere monsoon rainfall, with the strongest influence on monsoon area and intensity located in the Asian sector, where local emissions are greatest.

Abstract. Persistent wintertime heavy haze incidents caused by
anthropogenic aerosols have repeatedly shrouded North China in recent years,
while natural dust from the west and northwest of China also frequently affects
air quality in this region. Through continuous observation by a
multi-wavelength Raman lidar, here we found that wintertime aerosols in
North China are typically characterized by a pronounced vertical
stratification, where scattering nonspherical particles (dust or mixtures
of dust and anthropogenic aerosols) dominated above the planetary boundary
layer (PBL), and absorbing spherical particles (anthropogenic aerosols)
prevailed within the PBL. This stratification is governed by meteorological
conditions that strong northwesterly winds usually prevailed in the lower
free troposphere, and southerly winds dominated in the PBL, producing
persistent and intense haze pollution. With the increased contribution of
elevated dust to the upper aerosols, the proportion of aerosol and trace gas
at the surface in the whole column increased. Model results show that,
besides directly deteriorating air quality, the key role of the elevated
dust is to depress the development of PBL and weaken the turbulent
exchange, mostly by lower level cooling and upper level heating, and it is
more obvious during the dissipation stage, thus inhibiting the dissipation of
heavy surface anthropogenic aerosols. The interactions of natural dust and
anthropogenic aerosols under the unique topography of North China increase
the surface anthropogenic aerosols and precursor gases, which may be one of
the reasons why haze pollution in North China is heavier than that in other
heavily polluted areas in China.

Abstract. Fine particles were sampled from 9th November to 11th December 2016 and 22nd May to 24th June 2017 as part of the Atmospheric Pollution and Human Health in a Chinese megacity (APHH-China) field campaigns in urban Beijing, China. Inorganic ions, trace elements, OC, EC, and organic compounds including biomarkers, hopanes, PAHs, n-alkanes and fatty acids, were determined for source apportionment in this study. Carbonaceous components contributed on average 47.2 % and 35.2 % of total reconstructed PM2.5 during the winter and summer campaigns, respectively. Secondary inorganic ions (sulfate, nitrate, ammonium; SNA) accounted for 35.0 % and 45.2 % of total PM2.5 in winter and summer. Other components including inorganic ions (K+, Na+, Cl−), geological minerals, and trace metals only contributed 13.2 % and 12.4 % of PM2.5 during the winter and summer campaigns. Fine OC was explained by seven primary sources (industrial/residential coal burning, biomass burning, gasoline/diesel vehicles, cooking and vegetative detritus) based on a chemical mass balance (CMB) receptor model. It explained an average of 75.7 % and 56.1 % of fine OC in winter and summer, respectively. Other (unexplained) OC was compared with the secondary OC (SOC) estimated by the EC-tracer method, with correlation coefficients (R2) of 0.58 and 0.73, and slopes of 1.16 and 0.80 in winter and summer, respectively. This suggests that the unexplained OC by CMB was mostly associated with SOC. PM2.5 apportioned by CMB showed that the SNA and secondary organic matter were the highest two contributors to PM2.5. After these, coal combustion and biomass burning were also significant sources of PM2.5 in winter. The CMB results were also compared with results from Positive Matrix Factorization (PMF) analysis of co-located Aerosol Mass Spectrometer (AMS) data. The CMB was found to resolve more primary OA sources than AMS-PMF but the latter apportioned more secondary OA sources. The AMS-PMF results for major components, such as coal combustion OC and oxidized OC correlated well with the results from CMB. However, discrepancies and poor agreements were found for other OC sources, such as biomass burning and cooking, some of which were not identified in AMS-PMF factors.
Best practices for precipitation sample storage for offline studies of ice nucleation in marine and coastal environments

Abstract. Ice-nucleating particles (INPs) are efficiently removed from
clouds through precipitation, a convenience of nature for the study of these
very rare particles that influence multiple climate-relevant cloud
properties including ice crystal concentrations, size distributions and
phase-partitioning processes. INPs suspended in precipitation can be used to
estimate in-cloud INP concentrations and to infer their original
composition. Offline droplet assays are commonly used to measure INP
concentrations in precipitation samples. Heat and filtration treatments
are also used to probe INP composition and size ranges. Many previous
studies report storing samples prior to INP analyses, but little is known
about the effects of storage on INP concentration or their sensitivity to
treatments. Here, through a study of 15 precipitation samples collected at a
coastal location in La Jolla, CA, USA, we found INP concentration changes up
to > 1 order of magnitude caused by storage to concentrations of
INPs with warm to moderate freezing temperatures (−7 to
−19 ∘C). We compared four conditions: (1) storage at room
temperature (+21–23 ∘C), (2) storage at +4 ∘C, (3) storage at −20 ∘C and (4) flash-freezing samples with liquid nitrogen prior to storage at −20 ∘C. Results demonstrate that storage can lead to both
enhancements and losses of greater than 1 order of magnitude, with
non-heat-labile INPs being generally less sensitive to storage regime, but
significant losses of INPs smaller than 0.45 µm in all tested storage
protocols. Correlations between total storage time (1–166 d) and changes
in INP concentrations were weak across sampling protocols, with the
exception of INPs with freezing temperatures ≥ −9 ∘C in samples stored at room temperature. We provide the
following recommendations for preservation of precipitation samples from
coastal or marine environments intended for INP analysis: that samples be
stored at −20 ∘C to minimize storage artifacts, that
changes due to storage are likely an additional uncertainty in INP
concentrations, and that filtration treatments be applied only to fresh
samples. At the freezing temperature −11 ∘C, average INP
concentration losses of 51 %, 74 %, 16 % and 41 % were observed for
untreated samples stored using the room temperature, +4, −20 ∘C, and flash-frozen protocols, respectively.
Finally, the estimated uncertainties associated with the four storage protocols
are provided for untreated, heat-treated and filtered samples for INPs
between −9 and −17 ∘C.

Abstract. A new ice core drilled at the South Pole provides a
54 000-year paleoenvironmental record including the composition of the past
atmosphere. This paper describes the SP19 chronology for the South Pole
atmospheric gas record and complements a previous paper (Winski et al., 2019)
describing the SP19 ice chronology. The gas chronology is based on a
discrete methane (CH4) record with 20- to 190-year resolution. To
construct the gas timescale, abrupt changes in atmospheric CH4 during
the glacial period and centennial CH4 variability during the Holocene
were used to synchronize the South Pole gas record with analogous data from
the West Antarctic Ice Sheet Divide ice core. Stratigraphic matching based
on visual optimization was verified using an automated matching algorithm.
The South Pole ice core recovers all expected changes in CH4 based on
previous records. Gas transport in the firn results in smoothing of the
atmospheric gas record with a smoothing function spectral width that ranges
from 30 to 78 years, equal to 3 % of the gas-age–ice-age difference, or
Δage. The new gas chronology, in combination with the existing ice
age scale from Winski et al. (2019), allows a model-independent
reconstruction of the gas-age–ice-age difference through the whole record,
which will be useful for testing firn densification models.
UAV survey method to Monitoring and analysing geological
hazards: The Case study of mud volcano of Villaggio Santa Barbara,
Caltanissetta (Sicily)

Published: December 2020

Abstract. All active geological processes determine effects on the soil due to different deformation processes: surface uplift and subsidence, shear lineaments with differential kinematics in relation to the source and the soils involved. Among all the active geological processes on Santa Barbara mud volcano (Caltanissetta town, Italy), represents a dangerous site because it caused, on 11 August 2008, a paroxysmal event, which determined severe damages to the infrastructures at around to 2 km the paroxysmal event. The remote sensing of surface deformation now represents a key tool for the evaluation and monitoring of the hazard. The use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in contexts of natural danger presents three main steps for risk assessment and monitoring: pre-post event data acquisition, emergency support and monitoring. Here we present a methodology for monitoring deformation processes that may be precursors of paroxysmal events on the Santa Barbara mud volcano. Among the precursors, the lifting and development of structural features are the most important, with dimensions ranging from centimetre to decimetre. Therefore in relation to the magnitudes of the phenomena involved, the objective of this work is (going from the acquisition phase, to the SfM processing chain and the use of the M3C2-PM algorithm for the comparison between point clouds and uncertainty analysis with a statistical approach) the monitoring of deformation processes, with centimetre precision and a temporal frequency of 1–2 months, as precursor indications of hazard.
Wild Pear Trees, Patrimonial Legacies: Father-Son Relationship in Nuri Bilge Ceylan's The Wild Pear Tree
Authors: Liktor Coşkun
Published: December 2020

This article analyzes the father-son relationship in Nuri Bilge Ceylan’s latest film The Wild Pear Tree (2018), which tells the story of a son who desires a life as unlike his father’s narrow, provincial life as possible, only to find himself following in his father’s footsteps almost against his will. Drawing upon Freudian and Lacanian psychoanalysis, this article examines the film as an oedipal drama that portrays the predicament of a son who grapples with an ineffectual, humiliated father that fails to embody the paternal function. It undertakes to show how the father-son conflict eventually culminates in the father’s transformation from an object of contempt into an identificatory ideal for his son, who becomes heir to a legacy of disillusionment and thwarted hopes.

Authors: Porras Arboledas Pedro Andrés
Published: December 2020

Se trata de una aportación documental de algo más de 500 cartas transcritas y regestas de otras tomadas de los protocolos de la ciudad de Granada durante los años 1544-1551, en que se muestra el proceso urbanizador que estaba teniendo lugar en el arrabal del Arenal, transformado tras la conquista cristiana en collación o barrio de la Magdalena, barrio especializado en hospedaje, carretería, restauración, transporte de madera, suministro de estiércol, producción de productos hortícolas y toda la gama imaginable de oficios que precisaban dichos sectores económicos. Se parte de la parcelación de la huerta que tenía allí don Bernardino de Mendoza, capitán general de las galeras de España, cuyos solares fueron entregados contra la constitución de los correspondientes censos enfitéuticos.
El dolor de la pérdida y el abandono: el caso de Lol V. Stein en Marguerite Duras
Authors: Tornos Urzainki Maider
Published: December 2020

En 1964, Marguerite Duras publica Le ravissement de Lol V. Stein. En los próximos años, la novela se convierte en uno de los textos más estudiados, dentro del círculo psicoanalítico, porque el personaje central de Lol V. Stein va a ser un ejemplo paradigmático de la psicosis. Al fin y al cabo, exiliada de sí misma, Lol V. Stein vive prisionaera de la relación imaginaria que mantiene con la figura del otro, porque la ley significante del Nombre-del-Padre no ha quedado inscrita, como consecuencia de una forclusión en la segunda fase del estadio del espejo. Por lo tanto, después de haber sido abandonada por su prometido, el arrebato de Lol V. Stein se desencadena y, sin poder recurrir a la dimensión simbólica del lenguaje, se desmorona para siempre, incapaz de pasar por un proceso de duelo, por el objeto de amor perdido.
When the Tale is Invited in the Novel of Mohammed Dib
Authors: Romli Abdellah
Published: December 2020

This article examines the insertion of tales in the Dibian novel. Often, the Dibian novel remains the site of a quest where the character is confronted by questions about existence and the world. To insert in them an archetypal narrative of storytelling, where the laws are rather stable and predictable, leads us to question the nature of this generic coexistence. In this case Dib takes the path of narrative ambiguity by multiplying the functions of the narrator-character, again capable of sustaining the written narration as well as the oral one. More than the double cultural affiliation displayed, it is the happy meeting of the storyteller with his audience what is updated each time. Furthermore, the audience is about to hear their own story because the enunciation of story-telling is embedded in reflexive writing. The novel and the tale seem to be entwined in a kind of narrative continuity which highlights an act of ritualized enunciation and repels the specter of anxiety, even of death

Myths, rites and allegories for a symbolic poetics in If the Devil wants Mohammed Dib
Authors: Latroch Wassila
Published: December 2020

In Si Diable veut, Dib moves away from the precepts of realism to register his story in a more esoteric universe of myths and rites. By mobilizing a poetic language dominated by metaphor and allegory, Dib manages to say implicitly the inexpressible and to reveal the hidden side of beings and things. Transformed myths, diverted rites and enigmatic characters require a symbolic reading of Dib’s work which is the object of this article. Besides the reflection on the return to the country—easily elucidated from this novel—another interpretation is possible by deciphering the signs and studying the deep meaning of the text: that of the Algerian tragedy
