Change of situation as a basis for exemption from criminal responsibility for illegal felling, transportation, storage, sale of forest (Article 246 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine): problems of judicial practice
Authors: Movchan Roman , Dushevska Olena
Published: September 2024

The article carried out a critical analysis of the judicial practice of exemption from criminal liability in connection with the change in the situation of persons who have committed a criminal offense provided for in Art. 246 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, as a result of which existing problems in this area were identified and scientifically based ways of overcoming them were proposed.

In particular, it was proven that the most common mistake made by domestic courts when acquitting persons who have committed a crime, provided for in Art. 246 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, there is the fact that the application of Art. 48 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine is permanently justified by compensation for the damages and circumstances that should actually be considered only in the context of the individualization of criminal responsibility (such as the absence of a criminal record, sincere remorse). It is concluded that such a practice clearly does not stimulate law-abiding behavior, since in the worst case, the one who committed illegal logging «is threatened» with only full compensation for the damage caused, without serving any punishment for what he did. It is also stated that the appropriate approach is based on ignoring the obvious fact that the change of situation as a relatively objective type of exemption from criminal responsibility does not depend on the willpower and post-criminal behavior of the subject of the criminal offense.

Arguments are given in favor of supporting the position of those courts that, demonstrating a principled position, instead of the usual formal approach, carefully study the existence of grounds for satisfying the relevant requests and, in particular, note that all the above-mentioned circumstances are not sufficient by themselves and cannot convincingly testify about a change in the situation and a person’s loss of social danger to such an extent that it makes it impossible for him to commit another criminal offense.

Key words: criminal responsibility; exemption from criminal liability; punishment; change of situation; illegal felling, transportation, storage, sale of forest; contrition; post-criminal behavior; losses; compensation for damages; public danger.
Signs of the subjective side of murder as a typical legal construction
Authors: Berezhnyi Serhiy
Published: September 2024

The basic law of our state enshrines the conceptual provision, according to which human rights and freedoms and their guarantees determine the content and direction state activities. And therefore the protection of a person from criminal offenses, the protection of his rights, freedoms and legitimate interests is one of the most important tasks of state policy. One of the most important issues in the application of the criminal law is the definition of which one the criminal offense was committed by a person and under what criminal law the offense is foreseen. This issue is resolved in the process of criminal qualification Offenses Demarcation of the components of individual criminal offenses is important significance in the process of carrying out criminal-legal qualification. Meaning of legal practices, precedents and doctrines of criminal law for proper qualification criminal offenses are difficult to overestimate.

The subjective side of criminal offenses (crimes, criminal misdemeanors) is an important part application of the law on criminal liability.

The demands of today require a clear understanding of the theory of the subjective side of the criminal offense and practice. The modern stage of the development of the domestic science of criminal law and process determines the need for further research of scientific views on the theory of qualification criminal offenses and their successful application by law enforcement agencies, which will unconditionally contribute to the correctness and unity of judicial practice in solving tasks criminal proceedings. At the same time, ensuring the unity of practice is implementation the principle of legal certainty, which is embodied in compliance with general principles criminal proceedings established in Art. 7 of the Code of Civil Procedure, by means of the same application specific rule of law in similar legal relations. Correct qualification of a criminal offense for a committed socially dangerous act is mandatory a condition for the administration of justice in accordance with the law and one of the guarantees of compliance the convention requirement of the human right to a fair trial, provided for in Article 6 of the Convention on the protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms of 1950.

Key words: murder, subjective side of criminal offenses (crimes, criminal misdemeanors), theory of qualification of criminal offenses, qualification criminal offenses on subjective grounds, court practice.
A VERY LOW BANDGAP LINE-TUNNEL FIELD EFFECT TRANSISTOR WITH CHANNEL-BURIED OXIDE AND LATERALLY DOPED POCKET
Authors: Bui Huu Thai , Shih Chun-Hsing , Nguyen Dang Chien
Published: September 2024

Low bandgap and line tunneling techniques have demonstrated the most effectiveness in enhancing the on-current of tunnel field-effect transistors (TFETs). This study examines the mechanisms and designs of channel-buried oxide and a laterally doped pocket for a very low bandgap line-TFET. Numerical TCAD simulations show that the channel-buried oxide is needed to prevent off-state lateral tunneling while still maintaining the on-state vertical tunneling. The buried oxide pillar should be high so that the channel is thin, about 10 nm thick, to completely suppress the tunneling leakage. The dopant pocket is required to trigger the line tunneling earlier than the point tunneling to improve the subthreshold swing and on-current. Increasing the pocket concentration or decreasing the pocket thickness both cause an increase not only in the vertical band bending but also in the effective gate-insulator thickness. Because of the trade-off between these two operation parameters, for a given thickness/concentration, there exists an optimal concentration/thickness of the pocket to maximize the on-current. The on-current is optimized using a heavy, thin pocket, for which the band bending is maximized and the effective gate-insulator thickness is minimized. For the fabrication feasibility using existing doping techniques, the pocket concentration and thickness should be 1019 cm-3 and 4 nm, respectively, to maximize the on-current of the InAs line-TFET.

Authors: Guevara Merchán Daniela Cristina , Sánchez Loja Wilson Fernando , Gómez Ochoa Doménica Micaela
Published: September 2024

Las personas con discapacidad han enfrentado una serie de obstáculos a lo largo del tiempo, lo que ha provocado que busquen formas de subsistir en una sociedad estigmatizante, caracterizada por la negación de oportunidades, lo cual ha desencadenado la mendicidad, vista como una actividad para obtener recursos económicos y subsistir. El presente artículo tiene como objetivo explicar la mendicidad como estrategia de supervivencia de las personas con discapacidad. La metodología utilizada para el estudio fue de corte cualitativo, de tipo fenomenológico hermenéutico, de alcance explicativo, no experimental y transversal, en el que participaron seis personas con discapacidad de entre 25 y 75 años que realizan actividades de mendicidad, seleccionados mediante un muestreo no probabilístico por conveniencia; para la recolección de información, se utilizó la entrevista a profundidad. Los resultados de la investigación señalan que, la exclusión laboral, la pobreza, la discriminación y la falta de respaldo estatal fuerzan a este grupo vulnerable a recurrir a la mendicidad como último recurso, exponiendo a las personas con discapacidad a daños físicos y psicológicos. Los resultados obtenidos servirán como recursos para la formulación de líneas de acción que garanticen los derechos y la dignidad de este grupo vulnerable.

A Hybrid Approach for the Sales Forecasting of Paracetamol Products
Authors: Ayed Lakhal Dalel , Bel Hadj Kacem Saoussen , Tagina Moncef , Amara Mohamed Ali
Published: September 2024

The pharmaceutical industry is facing challenges due to various factors such as supply chain disruptions, changing consumer behavior, and regulatory changes. Accurate demand forecasting is essential to ensure an adequate supply of drugs. The goal of this work is to forecast paracetamol product demand. For this purpose, we propose a hybrid forecasting model combining two effective forecasting techniques: SARIMA (Seasonal AutoRegressive Integrated Moving Average) and ANFIS (Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System). This proposal consists of nonlinear components of time series by ANFIS and adjusting the result by the mean of the residuals of the SARIMA to improve the accuracy and performance of ANFIS predictions. Before the prediction phase, we preprocess our data and detect the anomalies in our dataset with Locally Selective Combination in Parallel Outlier Ensembles (LSCP). Then, by treating these anomalies as missing values, they are imputed using the combination of Fuzzy-Possibilistic c-means (FCM) with support vector regression (SVR) and a genetic algorithm (GA). Finally, we evaluate the performance of the model and some known models based on MAPE. We choose the hybrid model SARIMA-ANFIS that provides the most accurate and reliable forecasting.

Este estudo mostra a importância da produção de soja no desenvolvimento econômico brasileiro. Foram estudados três blocos de dados: i) cadeia produtiva e valor agregado da soja; ii) índices regionais de produção e desenvolvimento humano; e iii) comércio internacional e segurança alimentar. O estudo desmitifica três pontos. O primeiro é acreditar que a produção de soja gera baixo valor agregado. Essa afirmação é falsa, uma vez que a soja é um insumo estratégico em diversas cadeias produtivas. O segundo é achar que o crescimento da produção de soja tem pouco efeito no desenvolvimento local. A dinâmica produtiva do setor é capaz de atrair cada vez mais população e trabalho especializado, bem como incorporar ciência e tecnologia. Já o terceiro mito é imaginar que o aumento das exportações prejudica a segurança alimentar do país. Este fato não foi observado ao longo do tempo pela alta do consumo per capita dos diversos produtos alimentícios derivados da cadeia da soja, mesmo com a ampliação das exportações no mercado internacional.
Sufi Perspectives on the Philosophical Insights of Abu Ali Ibn Sino, Also Known as Avicenna, with Emphasis on the Concept of Al-Wujud al-Mutlaq
Authors: Shamsutdinova Nigina Karimovna
Published: September 2024

Ibn Sino views on the development of nature as an unified interconnected process. Man acts as a connected microcosm of this evolution, from both spiritual and materialistic point of view. This article analyzes the irrational views of Avicenna in the context of Sufism, as well as the problem of the man’s origin, which is inextricably linked with the concept of the creator and the supreme intelligence. The issue under consideration, the greatest attention of researchers is attracted by his doctrine of emanation, presented in the style of Neoplatonic philosophy. It focuses not on the lower but on the higher stages of evolutional advancement associated with the transcendental, cosmic intellect and the higher principles inherent in man in the context. It should be noted that Avicenna considers the concept of emotion in the Sufi context as the idea of the soul’s desire for reunification with the Creator. Avicenna connects his theory of the creation of man with the thoughts of the Koran that ruled medieval Islamic culture and with the ideas set forward in his mystical doctrines.

Published: September 2024

Food borne illnesses majorly result from poor hygiene practices and unsanitary conditions especially at fruits and vegetable selling points. We aimed to assess the hygiene status as well as parasite contamination in fruit and vegetables sold at Malete in Kwara state, Nigeria. Four (4) samples each of ready-to-eat vended fruits and vegetables which include; water melon, tomatoes, cucumber, carrot, banana and garden egg, and two (2) samples each of orange and pineapple were purchased from different fruits sellers in Malete. The parasite contamination of fruits was examined using standard centrifugal sedimentation methods. The helminth egg, larva, cast, and cyst were identified by using distilled water and saline as a floating medium, staining them with dobell's iodine, and examining them with an x40 objective lens. A total of four (4) parasite worms were identified as: Ascaris lumbriocoides (68.63%), Entamoeba coli (4.54%), Entamoeba histolytical (18.18%) and Paragonimous westermani (9.09%) from the fruit samples studied. Carrots and tomatoes show the highest contamination with 91.66% and 83.33%, banana and cucumber show lowest contamination (56.25% and 50%) among the samples, while orange and pineapple show no contamination among samples. Fruits and vegetables that are offered at the vendors are not pathogen-free, as evidenced by the organisms that were isolated from them. Thus, there is a risk of parasite infection if these fruits and vegetables are consumed raw without being thoroughly cleaned. The results and recommendations of this study are anticipated to be put into practice in order to reduce the any risk of contracting parasite infections among the populace
Impacts of Sewage Wastewater on Groundwater Quality and Health Risk in Makoko, Lagos, Nigeria
Authors: Martins Grace , Mafimisebi Peter
Published: September 2024

This research assessed the groundwater quality in a range of shallow wells and boreholes in the Makoko community. A combined eight water samples were gathered from these origins, and their pH, electrical conductivity (EC), total dissolved solids (TDS), hardness, chloride content, and heavy metals (Cr, Cu, Fe, Pb, and Zn) were examined. The collected data underwent statistical analysis and were compared to the established criteria of the World Health Organization (WHO-2017) and the Nigerian Standard for Drinking Water Quality (NSDWQ-2007). The results showed higher levels of EC, TDS, chloride, iron (Fe), and zinc (Zn) in some shallow wells than in boreholes, exceeding acceptable limits set by WHO and NSDWQ. Significantly elevated EC and TDS levels were observed in sewage wastewater from shallow wells, indicating a substantial amount of contamination in the groundwater. Lack of sewage systems infrastructures and unmonitored wastewater discharge into waterways are causing increased groundwater pollution, as highlighted by the findings. This presents a significant danger to both the health of people and their surroundings. It is essential for the community to work together to prevent inappropriate sewage disposal, as the government needs to prioritize implementing efficient sewage waste management practices and ensuring proper monitoring, particularly in areas with bad sewage systems infrastructures.

Authors: Skýpalová Renata , Šikýř Martin , Vávrová Jana
Published: September 2024

A positive employee experience is important for overall satisfaction and productivity. However, many employees do not always feel good at work. The article compares the employee experience in the Czech and Slovak Republics to determine which factors cause employee satisfaction and dissatisfaction and which factors employers should concentrate on to enhance employee satisfaction. The article analyses data from Gi Group Holding 2023 Czech and Slovak representative labour market surveys on employees from the Czech Republic (N = 1119) and the Slovak Republic (N = 1492). The analysis includes the verification of hypotheses concerning the current feelings of employees at work and their experience with workplace bullying. The findings uncovered those employees were satisfied with collaborative colleagues, interesting work, and work-life balance. On the other hand, they were dissatisfied with low earnings, stress and overwork, and unfavourable working conditions. To enhance employee satisfaction at work, it was suggested to concentrate on factors concerning work content (such as tasks, duties, and responsibilities), work context (such as earnings), work demands (such as workload and overwork), and work results (such as objectives, standards, and deadlines).

Investigation of the effects of Kahramanmaraş earthquake series on Cyprus Arc, Dead Sea fault, Hatay regions and stations close to two earthquakes epicenters
Authors: Pırtı Atınç
Published: September 2024

In various parts of the globe, there have been several earthquakes of a modest size. Monitoring the change of the points over time is a key component of typical techniques for extracting dynamic responses. This technique was unable to completely extract all of the earthquake’s dynamic properties. The GNSS precise point positioning (PPP) may be a useful tool for obtaining values of the point’s displacement that are more exact up to millimeters, which can help to overcome these flaws and evaluate the seismic wave of such earthquakes. Ultimately, PPP is a crucial tool for getting the precise observations. In this study, Canadian Spatial Reference System Precise Point Positioning (CSRS-PPP) approach to analyze the station’s displacement components and the station’s heights in periods from the two Kahramanmaraş earthquakes. The earthquake sequences that occurred in Turkey’s Kahramanmaraş in 2023 is an example of complicated faulting brought on by interactions between three plates close to the Hatay Triple Junction (HTJ). While the relative plate movements in this area are minimal (usually less than 10 mm/year), even sluggish plate motion zones may nevertheless see earthquakes that are quite destructive. Due to the three-plate system’s unusual geometry, a number of large earthquakes with very varied fault orientations were active throughout this series. A 7.8-magnitude earthquake happened on February 6, 2023 in southern Turkey, close to Syria’s northern border. A magnitude 7.5 earthquake, situated about 95 kilometers to the southwest, was occurred nine hours after the first one. The first earthquake was as big as the most powerful one ever recorded there in 1939 and was the most catastrophic to strike earthquake-prone Turkey in more than 20 years. In this study, the effects of two earthquakes in Kahramanmaraş were investigated on the Cyprus Arc, the Dead Sea fault, Hatay and the points close to two earthquakes zone. In the obtained results, it was computed that the greatest horizontal displacement occurred at the HAT2 station with 68.97 cm.
Modeling market value of land plots using GIS
Authors: Shulgan Roman , Nikolaichuk Kateryna
Published: September 2024

This work examines the regulatory framework for expert monetary valuation of land plots. Scientific research on the development and improvement of economic-statistical methods for mass monetary valuation of land plots is analyzed. The peculiarities and advantages of using GIS in the valuation procedure are considered. A structure of the valuation database is developed for the effective selection of comparable plots during valuation by comparing sales prices and market analysis. The valuation database is formed based on data on land plot sales. Price formation factors are analyzed in order to construct an economic-statistical model of market value for land plots in Rivne. Scales of indicator values are proposed for formalizing the assessment of price formation factors. Functions of the ArcGIS are used to establish indicator values. The market value of land plots is modeled using multiple regression analysis. Additionally, a surface of land plot values is constructed, which serves to determine the approximate market value.

Paracondylactis sinensis Carlgren, 1934 is a sea anemone with economic value in China. The wild population of P. sinensis has been shrinking due to overfishing and environmental pollution, which have caused price instability. In winter, the price of P. sinensis can reach 25 USD per kilogram. Up to now, there are no genetic markers developed for P. sinensis, preventing a further exploration of their population genetic diversity. In this study, the full-length transcriptome of P. sinensis was sequenced and microsatellite DNA markers (simple sequence repeats [SSRs]) were developed from those transcripts. A total of 52 primer pairs, which can amplify specific polymorphic bands in PCR experiments, were designed for the SSR markers. Genetic diversity and population genetics were analysed for P. sinensis populations collected from the coasts of Taizhou and Rizhao using six microsatellite DNA loci. While inbreeding was detected in both populations (Fis > 0), the overall number of alleles (Na = 11.3) and bottleneck analysis suggested that the genetic diversity of P. sinensis has not been greatly impacted. Clustering analyses using STRUCTURE, principal coordinate analysis and unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean tree revealed that the Taizhou population diverged from the Rizhao population; however, the genetic differentiation between the populations was moderate. Human-mediated commercial activities may be the principal reasons for the gene flow between the populations. Our study provides the first evaluation of the genetic resources of wild P. sinensis populations in China, which can serve as a useful reference for future comparative studies on population genetics and may guide policy-makers in initiating strategies for germplasm conservation and artificial breeding.
DoeDat: Enhanced Roundtripping of Crowdsourced Specimen Annotations
Authors: Dillen Mathias , Trekels Maarten
Published: September 2024

The DoeDat platform was launched by Meise Botanic Garden in 2018 to capture label data from imaged herbarium specimens by inviting volunteer contributors (Groom et al. 2018). It has since facilitated data capture from specimens of other natural history collections (Helminger et al. 2020, Mitrache et al. 2023), as well as digitised content from various other disciplines, such as historical photographs, posters and postcards. Volunteers may simply transcribe handwritten and/or typed text, but often also interpret the sparse and scattered information on the image, including trying to georeference its original location. As of April 2024, almost 650.000 tasks have been completed, of which more than 470.000 were herbarium specimens from Meise.

DoeDat supports domain standards, including Darwin Core, and follows most of the currently drafted MIDS (Minimum Information about a Digital Specimen) guidelines as to what data is captured for natural history specimens. However, images have to be pre-loaded into the server storage for each project and captured data gets exported as one or more CSV files per project. These data files then still need to be processed before they can be ingested into the local management system (Engledow et al. 2023). Often the data are also subjected to additional quality control before they get openly published. This can result in the pipeline from image to openly published annotations being quite time and labour-consuming.

As the biodiversity infrastructure landscape moves more towards FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) open data, DoeDat will adapt accordingly. This includes digital objects that are easy to annotate. Furthermore, image servers following IIIF (International Image Interoperability Framework) greatly standardise the access and portability of media content, drastically changing the way images are being dealt with. We envision upgrading the DoeDat platform to load images and any required metadata as IIIF manifests, greatly streamlining the process of adding new content and tracking provenance. The transcriptions should be accessible for external systems, loading the updated image manifests and publishing them as annotations such as nanopublications.
Description of the complete rDNA repeat unit structure of Coturnix japonica Temminck et Schlegel, 1849 (Aves)

Published: September 2024

Ribosomal RNA (18S, 5.8S, 28S) gene clusters in genomes form regions that consist of multiple tandem repeats. They are located on a single or several pairs of chromosomes and play an important role in the formation of the nucleolus responsible for the assembly of ribosome subunits. The rRNA gene cluster sequences are widely used for taxonomic studies, however at present, complete information on the avian rDNA repeat unit structure including intergenic spacer sequence is available only for the chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus Linnaeus, 1758). The GC enrichment and high-order repeats peculiarities within the intergenic spacer described for the chicken rDNA cluster may be responsible for these failures. The karyotype of the Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica Temminck et Schlegel, 1849) deserves close attention because, unlike most birds, it has three pairs of nucleolar organizer bearing chromosomes, two of which are microchromosomes enriched in repeating elements and heterochromatin that carry translocated terminal nucleolar organizers. Here we assembled and annotated the complete Japanese quail ribosomal gene cluster sequence of 21166 base pairs (GenBank under the registration tag BankIt2509210 CoturnixOK523374). This is the second deciphered avian rDNA cluster after the chicken. Despite the revealed high similarity with the chicken corresponding sequence, it has a number of specific features, which include a slightly lower degree of GC content and the presence of bendable elements in the content of both the transcribed spacer I and the non-transcribed intergenic spacer.

Published: September 2024

The possession of smart devices has ingrained itself into daily life. Therefore, smart devices, such as IoT and smartphones, are crucial sources of evidence in instances where criminal activity occurs. Due to the challenges in traditional digital forensic techniques involving smart devices, it has been recently proposed in the literature to leverage electromagnetic side-channel analysis (EM-SCA) for the purpose. This paper identifies and discusses an important barrier that exists in the application of EM-SCA for digital forensics that hinders its successful use, namely, the issue of cross-device portability of machine learning (ML) models that are used for EM-SCA. Firstly, the paper empirically evaluates the possibility of using trained ML models to extract forensic insights from EM radiation data of IoT devices. During this empirical study, the inability to reuse a trained ML model across different devices is identified. Secondly, the paper surveys the literature in search of related work that has studied the use of EM-SCA to gather information from smart devices. The purpose of the survey is to identify whether any existing work has been able to introduce potential approaches to enable cross-device portability of ML models in EM-SCA. The findings of this survey point to the fact that the identified problem still exists and requires further studies opening the door to future research.

Various factors can enhance students' learning outcomes in e-learning environments. Time management is a crucial aspect of effective learning, as it enables students to prioritize their tasks and achieve their goals within the given time frame. To improve time management ability students can benefit from feedback, which is a powerful tool to increase self-awareness and encourage positive temporal behavior. Feedback can take different forms such as regular evaluations, progress reports, and reminders of deadlines. By providing students with constructive feedback, they can become more aware of their strengths and weaknesses and adjust their time management strategies. This study proposes a technique based on students' temporal traces and the production of automatic feedback in an online learning environment. The experiment was conducted with 40 students enrolled in an online course on a developed system to validate the proposed approach. The results demonstrate that using feedback is an effective strategy to encourage students to better manage their time in online learning environments.

Authors: Falcon-Brindis Armando , Villanueva Raul T.
Published: September 2024

Stink bugs (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) have received a lot of attention as there are many economically important pest species. However, the status of species richness, distribution, and taxonomy remain overlooked and outdated in Kentucky (USA). Having such information at a regional scale is crucial to allow the development of suitable pest management and conservation programs. Here, the stink bug fauna of Kentucky was examined from museum specimens, literature, and public online repositories. Overall, 42 species in 28 genera and three subfamilies (Asopinae, Podopinae, and Pentatominae) are listed from Kentucky. Thirteen species are new records for Kentucky, 10 species are considered to be of economic importance and eight are strict predators. Pictures of species are provided along with the first key for the identification of the stink bug species of Kentucky.
Old World Micropholcus spiders, with first records of acrocerid parasitoids in Pholcidae (Araneae)
Authors: Huber Bernhard A. , Meng Guanliang
Published: September 2024

Micropholcus Deeleman-Reinhold & Prinsen, 1987 is one of only two Pholcidae genera known to occur both in the Old and New Worlds. However, there are major morphological and ecological differences among geographically separate groups of species, and it was mainly molecular data that have resulted in our current view of uniting all these species into a single genus. In the Old World, only four species have previously been described. Here, current knowledge about Old World Micropholcus is reviewed, redescribing three of the four previously known species, and describing twelve new species, originating from Saudi Arabia (M. dhahran Huber, sp. nov., M. harajah Huber, sp. nov., M. alfara Huber, sp. nov., M. abha Huber, sp. nov., M. tanomah Huber, sp. nov., M. bashayer Huber, sp. nov., M. maysaan Huber, sp. nov.), Oman (M. darbat Huber, sp. nov., M. shaat Huber, sp. nov.), Morocco (M. ghar Huber, sp. nov., M. khenifra Huber, Lecigne & Lips, sp. nov.), and the Philippines (M. bukidnon Huber, sp. nov.). We provide an exploratory species delimitation analysis based on CO1 barcodes, extensive SEM data, and first records of Acroceridae (Diptera) larvae in Pholcidae, extracted from book lungs.
