Bernard Bolzano on the picture, the image and the visual depiction
Authors: Hlobil Tomáš
Published: December 2024

Even before he wrote his two aesthetic treatises On the Concept of the Beautiful (1843) and On the Classification of the Fine Arts (1849), Bolzano had already concerned himself with the questions of what is a picture (Bild), what is an artistic image as a kind of picture, what is the relationship between the picture and the depicted object (das Abgebildete), and what is representation (Darstellung). His earlier reflections on these questions can be found in his manuscript Philosophical Diaries, in his correspondence with Franz Exner, a professor of philosophy at Prague University, and in his main philosophical work Theory of Science (1837). The variety of motives which led to these considerations caused Bolzano to attribute differing, sometimes almost contradictory, characteristics to the picture. The present study describes Bolzano’s views on these questions and aims to demonstrate that, although Bolzano dealt with the fundamental issues relating to the nature of the picture repeatedly, in different contexts and in a stimulating fashion, he did not do so in the form of an integral theory. The study outlines the reasons for his approach and its causes.
Das Gnadenbild von Kláštor pod Znievom (Slowakei)
Authors: Martens Didier
Published: December 2024

V původně premosnstrátském klášterním kostele Nanebevzetí Panny Marie v Kláštoře pod Znievom (Slovensko) se dochovala malovaná deska z roku 1600: polopostava trůnící Panny Marie s dítětem v životní velikosti. Kompozice vychází z předlohy vytvořené vlámským malířem Quintenem Massysem, která dala koncem 16. a počátkem 17. století v Antverpách vzniknout četným malovaným kopiím. Ty byly součástí konzervativního estetického hnutí spojeného s protireformací, jehož cílem byl návrat k umění vlámských primitivů. Kolem roku 1600 vyrobili bratři Wierixové podle Massysovy předlohy čtveřici tisků, které malíři kláštorské trůnící madony zjevně posloužily jako předloha. Obraz vznikl pravděpodobně v jižním Německu, jak naznačuje skutečnost, že na desku bylo použito lipové a nikoliv dubové dřevo. Do Kláštora obraz přivezli nejspíše jezuité, kteří v tomto regionu působili s obzvláštní činnorodostí. Monumentální obraz Panny Marie s dítětem se tak stal účinnou zbraní v konfesijním boji, a to i díky četným zázrakům. V roce 1777 je zmiňován jako „Gratiosa imago“, tedy Gnadenbild, milostný obraz . Díla vycházející z kompozic vlámských mistrů 15. nebo počátku16. století se jen málokdy stávala milostnými obrazy. Výjimkou byly region Bavorského vévodství, Rakouského císařství a Uher. Vedle románského a gotického sochařství a řady byzantských ikon se zde plnohodnotnými milostnými obrazy stávaly take vlámské malby z 15. a 16. století nebo jejich kopie. Nejznámějším případem je Maria Hilf od Lucase Cranacha staršího v innsbruckém dómu. Z ranější nizozemské malby se pak nabízejí příklady jako Gnadenbild ze Sammarei u Pasova nebo poutní kostel Maria Bühel u Salcburku, kde se milostnými obrazy staly kopie podle Rogiera van der Weyden zhotovené místními tvůrci v 17. století. K těmto známým případům vlámských předloh s „magickým potenciálem” bychom měli nově řadit take kláštorskou trůníví Pannu Marii s dítětem.
ALEXANDER PUSHKIN AND ARTISTS
Authors: А.В. Корнилова
Published: December 2024

А.С. Пушкина всегда привлекал мир художников. Он позировал В.А. Тропинину и О.А. Кипренскому, посвящал стихотворные строки К.П. Брюллову, А.О. Орловскому, Д. Доу, в «Евгении Онегине» упоминал «чудотворную кисть» Ф.П. Толстого. Посещая академические выставки, он живо откликался на новые произведения скульпторов А.В. Логановского и Н.С. Пименова, оставил восторженный стихотворный отклик на картину «Последний день Помпеи» К.П. Брюллова и навещал художника в его мастерской. Порадовали Пушкина и иллюстрации к «Руслану и Людмиле», выполненные президентом Академии художеств А.Н. Олениным, заинтересовали рисунки Г.Г. Гагарина к изданию его стихотворений. Ни разу ни о ком из художников он не отозвался плохо или равнодушно. И они платили ему тем же. Это прослеживается по воспоминаниям и письмам современников поэта, часть из которых представлена в данной статье. Именно в них раскрывается отношение поэта к своим собратьям по искусству.

The world of artists never ceased to attract Alexander Pushkin. He sat for portrait paintings by Vasily Tropinin and Orest Kiprensky. He dedicated poetic lines to Karl Bryullov, Aleksander Orłowski and George Dawe. He mentioned Fyodor Tolstoy’s “wonder-working brush” in Eugene Onegin. His visits to Academy of Arts exhibitions prompted him to respond vividly to new works by the sculptors Alexander Loganovsky and Nikolai Pimenov. He left an enthusiastic poetic response to Bryullov’s painting The Last Day of Pompeii and visited the artist in his studio. Pushkin expressed delight in the illustrations for his Ruslan and Ludmila executed by the President of the Academy of Arts Alexei Olenin and showed interest in Grigory Gagarin’s drawings for an edition of his poems, among others. Never did he speak ill or indifferently of any artist, and they reciprocated in kind. This is evident from the memoirs and letters of the poet’s contemporaries, some of which are presented in this article. These testimonies reveal the poet’s attitude towards his brothers of the brush.
ON THE SYSTEM OF NARRATORS IN ALEXANDER PUSHKIN’S SHORT STORY THE STATIONMASTER
Authors: А.С. Дедов , М.М. Шрагина
Published: December 2024

Статья показывает возможности живой работы с классикой в школе. Она содержит результаты исследования словесных рядов в повести «Станционный смотритель», проведенного на гуманитарной специализации ЛНМО в рамках изучения исторической стилистики XIX в. Анализ словесных рядов показывает: система точек видения в повести включает ранее никем не упомянутого персонажа — служанку в доме Минского. Это в корне меняет наше представление об эпизоде, открывает дорогу новым интерпретациям в истории литературы.

The article explores the potential for directly engaging with classic literature in a school setting. It presents the results of an analysis of verbal sequences in the short story “The Stationmaster” conducted within the framework of studying 19th-century historical stylistics at the humanities programme of the private school Laboratory of Continuous Mathematical Education. The analysis of the verbal sequences reveals that the system of viewpoints in the story includes a previously unmentioned character: a maid in Minsky’s house. This significantly alters our understanding of the scene and opens up possibilities for new interpretation in literary history.

Authors: Е.В. Мухина
Published: December 2024

Анализируются некоторые переводческо-издательские решения, принятые при переводе романа французской писательницы Клементины Бове «Songe à la douceur» (2016), обозначенного автором как фантазия по мотивам романа А.С. Пушкина и оперы П.А. Чайковского «Евгений Онегин», на английский («In Paris with You», 2018) и русский («Ужель та самая Татьяна?», 2019) языки. В центре внимания — проблема иноязычной передачи паратекстуальных элементов, в первую очередь цитатного названия романа и эпиграфа, и ономастической лексики, а также сохранения смысловых оттенков оригинала.

The analysis examines some translation and editorial issues of Clémentine Beauvais’s novel Songe à la douceur (2016) freely inspired by A. Pushkin’s novel and P.I. Tchaikovsky’s opera Eugene Onegin, using the translations of the novel into English (In Paris with You, 2018) and Russian (Uzhel ta samaia Tatiana?, 2019) as examples. The focus is on translating paratextual elements, and specifically the title and epigraph, into a foreign language, rendering foreign names and preserving the nuanced meanings of the original.

TokChat: Tokenization of Text for Secured Peer-to-Peer Communication
Authors:   VIT-AP University, India, Vadlapati Praneeth
Published: December 2024

This paper presents TokChat, a system that utilizes a new approach designed for enhanced security in
peer-to-peer communication using text messages. To improve the security of messages in a conversation, the system
converts a message into tokens by leveraging existing pre-trained tokenizers that are commonly used across numerous
natural language processing (NLP) tasks. The tokens represent a compact numerical form of text that captures the
original message. A new private key is generated for every new conversation to ensure the confidentiality of the
messages in the conversation. The tokens are encrypted using an existing AES-based cryptographic encryption
approach, ensuring they can be securely transmitted to the recipient. The receiver receives the encrypted tokens,
which are decrypted using the conversation-specific key. The decrypted tokens are converted to readable text using
the tokenizer. The usage of the system ensures that the messages fail to be converted into readable text by successful
attackers, even with the usage of the private conversation-specific key, without being aware of the tokenization
process. The system offers a higher security standard for secure messaging in the use cases in which the
confidentiality of the messages is crucial. The system has been tested using multiple text values and successfully
tokenized the text, encrypted the tokens, decrypted the transmitted ciphertext, and reproduced the original text. The
code is available at github.com/Pro-GenAI/TokChat.

Tokenization Beyond NLP: Potential Applications in Data Analytics, Cybersecurity, and Beyond
Authors:   VIT-AP University, India, Vadlapati Praneeth
Published: December 2024

Tokenization is the process of segmenting redundant patterns of input data, such as text, into tokens that are
suitable for model training and computational analysis. Tokenization plays a foundational role in Natural Language
Processing (NLP). Additionally, tokenization methods exhibit significant potential in domains outside of NLP, where
combining redundant patterns in data can enhance the efficiency, scalability, analytical capabilities, and accuracy of
predictions. This paper explores the potential applications of tokenization in fields beyond NLP in multiple areas,
including but not limited to bioinformatics, cybersecurity, and healthcare. These applications demonstrate the ability
of tokenization to simplify complex data patterns, thereby enhancing predictive accuracy. By leveraging the pattern
recognition strengths of tokenization, multiple domains could receive benefits from efficient data processing and
pattern recognition, which indicates a promising future for custom tokenization techniques across disciplines.

Published: December 2024

This article aims to address technical, transversal and digital competences and their development in the context of accounting. The development of artificial intelligence and digitalization technologies has significantly changed the world. Higher education institutions are not yet prepared for this reality. They must find a way to equip their teachers with digital skills in the first instance, and then move on to make changes to the course curriculum to adapt the content to 5.0 technology. At Porto Accounting and Business School of Porto Polytechnic, these technologies have been implemented in a pivotal environment called the Model of Simulator of Business Environment. This model includes two curricular units that are part of the final year of the degree course in accounting and administration, Business Simulation Project I and II. This model is characterised as an active methodology in the teaching and learning process. Students are at the centre of this process and responsibility for their learning lies with them. Technical, transversal and digital accounting skills are the basis for building this model. This article presents the competences worked on to prepare students for the labour market. A set of activities proposed to the students in the working sessions is presented, with an explanation of the competences that are intended to be powered. The theoretical basis and the experience of more than 20 years working with this Model leads us to reflect on its future. This future includes the introduction of AI and tools that bring digitalisation in its true sense.

Optimization of Printing Parameters of PLA and ABS Produced by FFF
Authors: Karamanlı İsmail Aykut , Tahnal Kadircan
Published: December 2024

In this study, the changes in tensile strength of PLA and ABS specimens, the most commonly used materials in additive manufacturing with FFF, were investigated as a function of fill rate and print speed. Tensile specimens were fabricated for different fill rates and speeds and tensile tests were performed. Increasing the fill rate increases the tensile strength. Increasing or decreasing the print speed too much has a negative effect on tensile strength. Filament usage and printing times were also calculated. With the data obtained, an optimization model was created using response surface methodology. The aim of this study is to optimize the strength/cost of ABS and PLA, the two preferred FFF materials. The novelty of the study is to investigate the strength/cost optimization for different material types in terms of UTS, filament consumption and printing speed. For each material type, high tensile strength, low printing time and low filament used conditions were determined for the optimization model. The optimum parameters for PLA are obtained at 66.77% fill level and 78.43% speed rate. For ABS, optimum values are obtained at 79.5% fill rate and 135% speed rate. Then, samples were produced for optimum conditions and experiments and calculations were repeated. The numerical results obtained with the model were compared with the experimental results. It is found that the model estimates the output parameters with high accuracy. This proves the accuracy of the proposed optimization model.

The research investigates the impact of Moringa oleifera leaf powder (MOLP) supplementation on broilers subjected to dexamethasone-induced stress. A total of 200-day old chicks were divided into five groups (A, B, C, D and E), each group having four replicates (ten chicks/replica). Negative control group (A) received only basal diet, positive control group (B) given dexamethasone (day 21st onward) in basal diet, group C, D, and E received 0.8%, 1.2%, and 1.6% MOLP respectively.  Results indicate that significant (P ≤ 0.05) improvements in liver health, evidenced by decreased levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and alkaline phosphate (ALP) in MOLP-treated groups, urea and creatinine levels remained non-significant. Significant alterations in gut microbiota composition, with positive (P ≤ 0.05) changes in Escherichia coli, Bifidobacteria, and Lactobacilli in MOLP-treated birds, indicated potential benefits for gut health. Mineral content analysis revealed higher (P ≤ 0.05) phosphorus % in MOLP-administered groups, ash% and Ca% were non-significant. Bone morphological parameter demonstrated significant (P ≤ 0.05) improvements in tibia length, body weight, tibiotarsal index and weight/length index in 1.2% and 1.6% MOLP groups, diaphysis diameter, medullary canal diameter, medial wall diameter, lateral wall diameter and robusticity index of tibial bones were non-significant. MOLP supplements significantly (P ≤ 0.05) changed muscle fascicle diameter and muscle fascicle cross-sectional area, while muscle fiber diameter, muscle fiber cross-sectional area and muscle fiber density were remained non-significant. It was concluded that up to 1.6% MOLP in broiler feed improves broilers health.

Food safety is a global challenge with chemical residues in foods causing harm to consumers. In particular, pesticide residues in food value chains is one of the leading causes of toxicities and a major cause of human diseases globally. The increasing demand for fruits and vegetables due to rapid population growth has driven growers to enhance pesticide use to boost crop production. This study was conducted to assess the extent of pesticide residues in selected fruits and vegetables commonly sold at wholesale markets in the Lahore region, the second largest city in Pakistan. The concentrations of six commonly used pesticide residues were determined using High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) with a mass Photodiode Array Detector (PDA), in selected fruits (Citrus, Guava, and Apple) and vegetables (Okra, Brinjal, Spinach, Cabbage, and Cauliflower). During survey, a total of 120 samples were collected and analyzed for three commonly used pesticides (Bifenthrin, Imidacloprid, and Chlorpyrifos) residues. The results of this study revealed that nearly all samples were contaminated with pesticide residues. Among the fruits, 67% of samples and 40% of vegetable samples contained pesticide residues exceeding the Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs), while 33% of fruit samples and 60% of vegetable samples had pesticide residues below the MRLs. This study highlights the significant risk and threat to health posed by the accumulation of these poisonous substances in our daily food.

Background: Gynoid lipodystrophy (GL) is a complex condition that mainly affects women, who often face challenges such as body dissatisfaction, difficulty finding clothes, and pain due to the appearance of an "orange peel" texture. These issues have a significant impact on their quality of life, sometimes leading to social exclusion. Objective: This study aimed to correlate the Cellulite Severity Scale (CSS) with Thermography when used to classify GL. Patients/Methods: Cross-sectional study, where 40 women underwent evaluation through the photonumerical scale of cellulite severity and thermography. After analyzing the inclusion criteria, the buttocks were classified as right (HG) and left (LG) and underwent Pearson's correlation test and linear regression. Results: The results showed that there is no correlation between the mean temperature of the left buttock (ºC) by thermography and the CSS score of the left buttock (r=0.15); and there is also no correlation between the mean temperature of the right buttock (ºC) by thermography and the CSS score of the right buttock (r=0,21). Conclusion: It was concluded that there is neither correlation nor association between thermography and the CSS when used to classify GL.

Este é um estudo descritivo e correlacional desenvolvido com o objetivo de caracterizar a violência sexual entre adolescentes de escolas públicas de um município do Sudoeste do Paraná, as suas consequências e os fatores de risco. Participaram da pesquisa 1.626 adolescentes, dos quais 15,7% (n= 255) indicaram já ter sofrido violência sexual tanto no âmbito intrafamiliar quanto extrafamiliar. Ademais, foi possível observar a incidência desses atos com relação ao gênero das vítimas, sendo que 255 adolescentes (80,8%) identificaram-se com o gênero feminino. O instrumento utilizado para a coleta de dados foi a aplicação do Questionário da Juventude Brasileira. A tabulação e a análise dos dados foram realizadas por meio da plataforma Statistical Package Social Sciences - SPSS 27.0. Os resultados demonstram presença de diversos fatores de risco associados à violência sexual, com destaque à ideação/tentativa de suicídio. No estudo foi demonstrado também a correlação de violência sexual (intrafamiliar e extrafamiliar) entre o uso de cigarro, maconha, bebida alcoolica e a correlação entre as duas tipologias de violência sexual, sendo está uma correlação significativa e moderada (r= 0,321*; <0,001).

Este artigo analisa as concepções implícitas de futuros professores de Física sobre a motivação dos estudantes para o aprender, com base no referencial das Teorias Implícitas estruturadas por Pozo et al. (2006). O objetivo é identificar quais teorias — ­Direta, Interpretativa ou Construtiva — orientam suas práticas pedagógicas. A pesquisa, de abordagem qualitativa, foi conduzida como um estudo de caso com dez acadêmicos de Física Licenciatura da Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso do Sul, utilizando como instrumentos de pesquisa o questionário de dilemas e entrevistas semiestruturadas, analisados por meio da Análise de Conteúdo proposta por Bardin (2016). Os resultados indicam uma predominância de concepções alinhadas à Teoria Interpretativa, embora elementos das teorias Direta e Construtiva também sejam observados. Os participantes demonstraram preferência por práticas reflexivas e participativas, mas enfrentam dificuldades para abandonar modelos tradicionais de ensino. Além disso, reconheceram que a motivação dos estudantes é influenciada por fatores internos e externos, como o interesse pessoal e o suporte familiar. Concluímos que é necessário fortalecer a formação docente para incentivar práticas que promovam autonomia e a motivação intrínseca, facilitando a transição para abordagens pedagógicas mais colaborativas e significativas.

Mammary tumors (MT) are the most frequent neoplasms in dogs in Brazil.  In this way, the present study aimed to profile, knowledge, and behavior of owners of bitches with MT in a veterinarian service. For this, 11 owners of female dogs who had consented for the mastectomies of their bitches were interviewed. While only one owner said they did not know that dogs could have mammary cancer, most did not know how to prevent canine mammary cancer, demonstrating the need for educational campaigns on the disease. Three owners stated that they used contraceptive drugs on their dogs several times. Eight owners reported that they had never consulted a veterinarian about the tumor. Most owners stated that they only sought help for the dog because participation in the project was free of charge, indicating that financial difficulties are a major reason owners delay consultations. It was concluded that lack of knowledge about the disease is still high among the owners interviewed, especially with regard to prevention. Therefore, the issue should be addressed more frequently by veterinarians in order to guide the owners.

Published: December 2024

Um município de pequeno porte do Centro-Oeste brasileiro atravessou um cenário preocupante nos aspectos referentes à assistência à saúde, especialmente, para as populações vulneráveis, considerando a população LGBTQIAPN+ e as profissionais do sexo. Destaca-se que com a chegada da Suzano - fábrica de celulose - no município houve um aumento populacional significativo e, consequentemente, o aumento de problemas sociais. Esse contexto associado ao aumento de casas de prostituição na cidade revelam a importância de um enfrentamento singular tanto para as profissionais do sexo como para a população LGBTQIAPN+, principalmente, por se tratar de um grupo que já possui vulnerabilidades específicas para proteção à saúde. Partindo dessas informações, as ações de intervenção tiveram como objetivo principal efetivar ações de equidade para as profissionais do sexo e para a população LGBTQIAPN+ a fim de garantir o acesso aos serviços de saúde do município citado.

O controle de temperatura é de fundamental importância nas indústrias metalúrgicas que produzem feixes de molas. A dureza das lâminas que compõem o feixe é uma característica significativa que é afetada diretamente pela temperatura do forno no qual a peça é processada. Por esta razão, este trabalho possui como finalidade realizar um projeto de automação e instrumentação para controle de temperatura de um forno de revenimento de uma indústria metalúrgica. Primeiramente, será realizada uma breve explicação sobre o processo de tratamento térmico, as variáveis que precisam ser controladas no processo para a qualidade do produto e os tipos de controle que podem ser empregados para ajuste dessas variáveis. Para garantir que os parâmetros de processos estejam conforme, propomos neste trabalho a elaboração de um controle de temperatura do forno de revenimento de uma indústria juntamente com um sistema de supervisão, de forma a monitorar e controlar em tempo real os parâmetros de processo dos produtos processados no chão de fábrica. Desta forma, garantimos a qualidade do produto e a satisfação dos clientes da empresa.
