ARSITEKTUR DSS DENGAN METODE PROFILE MATCHING DALAM MEMILIH PERAWAT TERBAIK
Authors: Kadir Abdul
Published: March 2023

Penghargaan terhadap kinerja perawat memerlukan pengakuan sebagai penghargaan perbaik perawat di RSUD Balangan. Namun, evaluasi kinerja perawat RSUD Balangan dilakukan secara subjektif, yang menimbulkan masalah bagi organisasi karena evaluasi subjektif sering dianggap terlalu sederhana dalam merepresentasikan kemampuan sebenarnya dari seorang perawat. Perlu ada semacam aplikasi pendukung keputusan untuk membantu menghindari evaluasi subjektif (DSS). Penelitian ini menggunakan sepuluh kriteria, masing-masing dengan sub-kriterianya sendiri untuk memilih pengasuh terbaik, termasuk pengetahuan, kemampuan kerja, tanggung jawab pribadi, disiplin, keterampilan komunikasi, inisiatif, kerja tim, akuntabilitas, dan kecerdasan manajemen. Kriteria ini disempurnakan menggunakan metode Profile Matching. Temuan penelitian ini menyarankan bahwa DSS dengan metode Profile Matching dapat direkomendasikan untuk digunakan dalam memilih layanan terbaik untuk RSUD Balangan. Kesulitan dengan penelitian termasuk menggunakan kriteria yang tidak konsisten untuk menentukan faktor penelitian mana yang digunakan dan faktor penelitian mana yang digunakan untuk menjelaskan rangkaian hasil pertama. Hal ini menimbulkan pertanyaan apakah penelitian masa depan harus mengadopsi pendekatan hibrida atau tidak.

Authors: AKÜLKER Handan , ŞILDIR Hasan , AYDIN Erdal
Published: March 2023

Karma tam sayılı doğrusal olmayan programlama (MINLP), enerji şebekelerinin optimum tasarımı ve uzun ya da kısa vadeli enerji üretim planlarının oluşturulması için kullanılabilecek bir optimizasyon yöntemidir. Literatürdeki pek çok yayın, doğrusal olan karma tam sayılı doğrusal programlama metotlarını kullanırken, önemli detayları bünyesinde bulundurabilen MINLP, çözümünün daha zor olmasından dolayı pek tercih edilmemiştir. Ancak, detaylı ve güvenilir karar verme mekanizmalarının oluşturulabilmesi için, MINLP optimizasyon metotlarının kullanılması kritiktir. Mikro şebeke; geleneksel ya da yenilenebilir ya da hibrit enerji kaynakları kullanan dağıtık güç jeneratörlerinden, depolama birimlerinden ve yüklerden oluşan bir çeşit enerji şebekesidir. Bir mikro şebeke, ana şebekeyi desteklemek amacıyla kurulabileceği gibi yalnıza belli bir lokasyonun elektrik talebini karşılamak amaçlı da kurulabilir. Türkiye’nin hem enerji kaynakları yönünden ithalata bağımlı oluşu hem de şebekelerde üretilen elektriğin iletimi sırasında meydana gelen enerji açıklarından dolayı, mikro şebekelerin optimum tasarımı ve uzun vadeli elektrik üretim planlarının oluşturulması son yıllarda elzem hale gelmiştir. Bu çalışmada, yirmi yıllık proje ömrüne sahip bir mikro şebekenin optimum tasarımının yapılması ve uzun vadeli elektrik üretim planının yapılması hedeflenmiştir. Yenilenebilir ve geleneksel kaynaklı 14 adet güç jeneratörü, 1 adet elektrolizör ve 1 adet metanasyon reaktöründen oluşan sentetik doğalgaz üretim sistemi ve 1 adet enerji depolama birimi içeren aday ekipman havuzu oluşturulmuştur. MINLP ile bu havuzdan proje maliyetini minimize edecek kurulum ekipmanları seçilmiş ve seçilen ekipmanlar ile yarım saatlik periyotlarla elektrik üretim planlaması yapılmıştır. Paris Antlaşması’nı imzalayan bazı ülkelerde uygulanmaya başlanan karbondioksit emisyonu vergisi hesaplamalara dahil edilmiştir. Bu verginin eklendiği ve eklenmediği iki durum incelenmiş, optimum ekipman seçimleri ve üretim planlamaları karşılaştırılmıştır.

Published: March 2023

Steganography is a subject of study that has been used to hide information throughout history. In cryptology science, the information to be hidden is encrypted. Both study subjects are widely used in information security and protection. In our study, digital image steganography, which is one of the application areas of steganography, was developed and applied to hide text in the selected images. While doing this, the low bands that will hide the data using the discrete Haar wavelet transform of the images obtained first. The text to be hidden is encrypted with the one-time-pad algorithm. The key used for the encryption is transmitted to the receiver using a transmission layer based on a Highly Secured Information Exchange Algorithm. The algorithms use a randomly generated key pool maintained by both the transmitter and the receiver. A key is selected from the pool randomly by generating a random key start point for every message. The pool size and the randomness are critical factors in guaranteeing no key repetition, which is a requirement for a one-time-pad. The ciphertext and the key starting point indicator are hidden in the low bands of the pictures by utilizing the least significant bit method. The optimal pixel adjustment process was applied to the pre-stego-images, this resulted in an improvement in the results. The results obtained in this study are compared against the pre-optimal pixel adjustment process results and the results obtained through peer studies. The test results show that the proposed method outperformed all the methods in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio, structural similarity index metric, mean absolute error, mean consequential error and the encryption key security.

Published: March 2023

This study was carried out to determine the physicochemical properties and the fatty acid composition of milk samples collected from different originated Anatolian water buffaloes living in the same farm. The fat amounts in samples were ranged between 5.24 and 8.67%. The fatty acids with the highest ratios in buffalo milk fat belonged to C16:0 (palmitic acid), C18:1 (oleic acid), C18:0 (stearic acid) and C14:0 (myristic acid). Saturated fatty acids (SFA) (62.6 to 67.3 %) were found to be more dominant in buffalo milk fat than monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) (28.1 to 32.99 %) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) (3.22 to 9.57%). Conjugated linoleic acid contents of the samples were determined between 1.46 % and 2.11 %. The conjugated linoleic acid ratios of the samples were similar. It was concluded that origin difference was effective on the physicochemical properties and the fatty acid composition of buffalo milk. It is thought that the results obtained from this study will contribute to obtaining information about the nutritional properties of Anatolian buffalo milk and to improve the nutritional and technological properties of products.

Authors: Nesis Yu. L.
Published: March 2023

Tasks. The author considers the specific aspects of the activities of cultural institutions; identifies current problems in this field; defines the concept of the quality of the activities of cultural institutions and proposes ways to improve it, including through the creation of a unified state information system for the purchase of tickets to cultural institutions of the Russian Federation.

Methods. This study uses an integrated approach, general scientific (concretization, abstraction, deduction, induction, analogy) and special methods of cognition (analytical and statistical methods).

Results. The author proposes creating a new digital project in the field of purchasing tickets to cultural institutions (museums, theaters, etc.), which would increase the comprehensive quality of their activities. This includes improving the quality of services provided by cultural institutions, improving the planning of tourist and sightseeing routes, managing the flow of visitors in cultural institutions, eliminating the possibility of overflow, preventing the activity of theater and museum ticket speculators, obtaining significant economic effects in the public sector.

Conclusions. The unified information system can be used by public authorities in the field of culture and cultural institutions (museums, theaters, etc.), and by the population consuming such services. The system proposed by the author is unique, and its implementation would contribute to improving the quality of services provided by cultural institutions, ensuring transparency of the ticket sale process for all interested parties, reducing the cost of tickets by eliminating intermediary commissions, increasing the revenue of the state budget by eliminating the possibility of ticket fraud, etc.
ESG in the context of strategic business management
Authors: Kozlova N. I.
Published: March 2023

Aim. The presented study aims to propose a conceptual approach to ESG reporting in company value management and to identify areas for further research regarding the methodological development of the introduction of environmental, social, and managerial factors into the overall system of strategic business management.

Tasks. The author determines the level of influence of the ESG agenda on decision-making in capital markets by creating an overview of statistics, key theses in the information field, and relevant scientific research in the field of finance; determines the degree of methodological development of ESG factors in business management from the perspective of the requirements of the value management concept; describes algorithms used by the investment community to evaluate assets with allowance for ESG rankings and by company management to take into account ESG factors in managerial processes and transmission of signals to the external environment; formulates proposals for taking into account ESG data based on the latest developments in the field of strategic business management and tasks requiring methodological elaboration and further research.

Methods. The key methods used in the study include analysis and synthesis, comparison, generalization, system analysis, induction and deduction.

Results. It is found that the introduction of ESG factors into business management processes is underdeveloped methodologically by the scientific community and consulting companies against the backdrop of growing investor interest in ESG assets. The issue of making allowance for ESG factors in management remains open and requires further methodological development. An approach to considering ESG factors as drivers of the market value of assets is proposed, which is achievable using a modified approach to company value management based on expectations.

Conclusions. Despite the growing interest in the ESG agenda in capital markets, methods for assessing and implementing ESG factors in companies' business processes are underdeveloped, and these factors are insufficiently justified in companies on a growing scale as a whole. On the one hand, considering the significant investment directed to ESG funds and the volume of capital investment of companies in ESG assets, the need to investigate ESG factors as potential drivers of value within the framework of cost management is determined, their role and significance are substantiated. On the other hand, the author believes that a modified approach to company value management based on expectations can already be used today to make allowance for ESG factors and take prompt measures to reduce the noise associated with significant observed variations in the estimates of the ESG status of companies operating in different regions and industries, as well as to implement algorithms for the interaction with the external environment in terms of expectations regarding ESG business performance.

Computational Processes for General Intelligence The SEOM Model
Authors: Balakrishnan Prabhakar
Published: March 2023

The ‘brain-mind-intelligence’ structure may be considered analogous to a ‘computer-operating system (OS)-application’ construct. Software development would be far more difficult without the benefit of abstractions like file and memory handles, and graphical user interfaces, implemented in operating systems. The easy access to application-level semantics, provided by the infrastructure of the OS, simplifies application development.  Abstractions can play a similar role in producing intelligent systems. The power of abstractions may be determined by their ability to unify the treatment of several types of higher concepts. Unifying various concepts in the domain of intelligence, such as problems, solutions, objects, and emotions, through abstractions will be of immense value. This paper shows how ‘higher-level perceptions’ could be used to serve this objective and construct an OS-like infrastructure. With the infrastructure in place, ordinary software objects developed and deployed using standard methods, become accessible using the semantics provided by the infrastructure. Now, after brief training exercises, the objects would be available for intelligent use. The focus, therefore, is on the design of the infrastructure that could play a mind-like role in humans.

The design uses a new, non-symbolic, non-connectionist, transmutable method of representation that tackles the so-called ‘frame’ and ‘grounding’ problems of artificial intelligence. The infrastructure enables the conversion of sensory inputs to transmutable representations amenable to semantic modifications, to flexibly determine actions to perform on software objects developed externally. Furthermore, the infrastructure serves to ground and functionally manage the transmutable, connectionist, and symbolic systems. Thus, the new model plays a critical role in building intelligent systems that overcome major problems in learning and action selection, including brittleness associated with the limited semantics of purely symbolic and connectionist designs. 

The new model is then evaluated in terms of features, against criteria set forth independently by Newell, Sun, Vernon, and others. In addition, a new measure of intelligence introduced in this paper is used to quantitatively compare the proposed model with some others developed over the years. 
Emergent Causality & the Foundation of Consciousness
Authors: Bennett Michael Timothy
Published: March 2023

To make accurate inferences in an interactive setting, an agent must not confuse passive observation of events with having intervened to cause those events. The do' operator formalises interventions so that we may reason about their effect. Yet there exist pareto optimal mathematical formalisms of general intelligence in an interactive setting which, presupposing no explicit representation of intervention, make maximally accurate inferences. We examine one such formalism. We show that in the absence of an operator, an intervention can still be represented by a variable. Furthermore, the need to explicitly represent interventions in advance arises only because we presuppose abstractions. The aforementioned formalism avoids this and so, initial conditions permitting, representations of relevant causal interventions will emerge through induction. 

These emergent abstractions function as representations of one’s self and of any other object, inasmuch as the interventions of those objects impact the satisfaction of goals. We argue (with reference to theory of mind) that this explains how one might reason about one's own identity and intent, those of others, of one's own as perceived by others and so on. In a narrow sense this describes what it is to be aware, and is a mechanistic explanation of aspects of consciousness.

Satellite-Derived Bathymetry of an Inland Reservoir in India
Authors: Gupta Girish Kumar , Bhat Rajshekhar , Balan M. Selva
Published: March 2023

Estimating depth of water columns in reservoirs, referred to as bathymetry, is an important task in water resource management. Satellite-derived bathymetry (SDB), where depths of water columns are estimated using satellite data, is an emerging and promising technique, especially for shallow-water scenarios. In this work, our objective is to obtain deep-learning models for SDB of a shallow water reservoir in Western India using supervised learning. For accomplishing this, after a series of pre-processing steps, we generate training data consisting of band reflectance values provided by Sentinel-2 satellite as input features and corresponding depth values collected by acoustic bathymetry as the ground truth data. The main contributions of the work include obtaining deep learning models that perform better than other classical techniques in terms of estimation accuracy, towards which we first obtain one dimensional (1D) convolutional neural network (CNN) and 2D-CNN models, which estimate depth using satellite data in tabular and image formats respectively. We then propose a hybrid model where we first classify each pixel of the image to correspond to high or low depth values and then perform regression on each of them separately. From the study, we show that (i) considering all the available bands of the Sentinel-2 satellites or those having high correlation with the ground truth depths gives significant performance improvement over considering only a subset of the bands having resolution of 10 meters, (ii) the 2D-CNN model trained using the image dataset yields significant performance improvement compared to other models trained on tabular data, (iii) and that the hybrid model which uses 2D-CNN for both the classification and regression tasks, trained on image data, performs best among all the models.

Authors: Nabih Ahmed
Published: March 2023

This paper addresses the challenges associated with the high winding and core loss in the Integrated Transformer-Inductor (ITL). To overcome these challenges, we propose an improved winding design of the ITL by utilizing idle shielding layers for inductor integration within the matrix transformer. This method offers full printed circuit board (PCB) utilization, where all layers are consumed as winding, resulting in a significant reduction in the winding loss of the ITL.

Moreover, we propose an improved core structure of the ITL that offers better flux distribution of the leakage flux within the magnetic core. This method reduces the core loss by more than 50\% compared to the conventional core structure.

We demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed concepts by presenting the design of the ITL used in a high-efficiency, high-power-density 3-kW 400-V-to-48-V LLC module. The proposed converter achieves a peak efficiency of 98.7\% and a power density of 1050 W/in3.
On the Computation of Meaning, Language Models and Incomprehensible Horrors
Authors: Bennett Michael Timothy
Published: March 2023

Accepted for full oral presentation at the 16th Conference on Artificial General Intelligence, taking place in Stockholm, 2023.

We integrate foundational theories of meaning with a mathematical formalism of artificial general intelligence (AGI) to offer a comprehensive mechanistic explanation of meaning, communication, and symbol emergence. This synthesis holds significance for both AGI and broader debates concerning the nature of language, as it unifies pragmatics, logical truth conditional semantics, Peircean semiotics, and a computable model of enactive cognition, addressing phenomena that have traditionally evaded mechanistic explanation. By examining the conditions under which a machine can generate meaningful utterances or comprehend human meaning, we establish that the current generation of language models do not possess the same understanding of meaning as humans nor intend any meaning that we might attribute to their responses. To address this, we propose simulating human feelings and optimising models to construct weak representations. Our findings shed light on the relationship between meaning and intelligence, and how we can build machines that comprehend and intend meaning.

Published: March 2023

Ferritin is a 12 nanometer (nm) diameter iron storage protein complex that is found in most plants and animals. A substantial body of evidence has established that electrons can tunnel through and between ferritin protein nanoparticles and that it exhibits Coulomb blockade behavior, similar to quantum dots and nanoparticles. This evidence can be used to understand the behavior of these particles for use in nanoelectronic devices, for biomedical applications and for investigation of quantum biological phenomena. Ferritin also has magnetic properties that make it useful for applications such as memristors and as a contrast agent for magnetic resonance imaging. This article provides a short overview of this evidence, as well as evidence of ferritin structures in vivo and of tunneling in those structures, with an emphasis on ferritin structures in substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) neurons. Potential biomedical applications that could utilize these ferritin protein nanoparticles are also discussed.
UAV Route Planning to Anticipate the COVID-19 Crowd Clusters with Dynamic Programming
Authors: Wastupranata Leonard Matheus
Published: March 2023

Crowds are considered trivial by the community because they feel they have implemented health protocols by wearing masks. Crowds must be minimized so that the spread of the Covid-19 virus does not get higher. This paper aims to plan a UAV shuttle route so that it can approach as many locations as possible with potential crowding while simultaneously leading to the destination of the flight route without having to go around first. The method used is a comparison of Greedy algorithms and Dynamic Programs in determining the most effective route. The flight simulation was carried out using Software in The Loop (SITL) and ArduPilot Mission Planner. The results obtained are that the Dynamic Program can visit 14 locations out of 18 existing location choices, whereas with the Greedy algorithm approach, UAV can only visit 8 locations out of 18 existing location choices. The conclusion is that the Dynamic Program is able to maximize routes so that more locations are visited by UAVs and certainly better than the Greedy Algorithm.

Published: March 2023

Background: Clinical features of celiac disease vary considerably. Intestinal symptoms are common in children whose disease is diagnosed within the 1st 2 years of life. As the age at presentation of the disease shifts to later in childhood, and with the more liberal use of serologic screening tests, extra-intestinal manifestations and associated disorders, without any accompanying digestive symptoms, have increasingly become recognized, including short stature. We aim in this study to determine the percentage of celiac disease among patients with short stature.
Objectives of the Study: (1) to show the percentage of patient with celiac disease in short stature children. (2) to show the effect celiac disease on treatment of short stature children.
Methodology: A cross sectional study that carried out at the Endocrine Pediatrics Clinic at A Zahraa Teaching Hospital for a period in 1st of January 2013 to end of October 2013; a total of 167 children and adolescents, aged range of 2 to 18 years were registered with short stature . 91 children of them only have been enrolled in this study according to inclusion criteria. Enzyme immunoassay (Biosystems, Spain) was used to determine IgA tTG using microplate tests. Samples with concentrations >20U/mL were defined as positive. Patients with positive anti-tTGserology were referred to the gastroenterology clinic to continue investigation of celiac disease by endoscopy and biopsy. Data were analyzed by SPSS software in IBM version 20 using chi square and paired T-test.
Result: A total of 167 patients were evaluated 91 of them only have been enrolled in our study according to inclusion criteria; 59 (65%) were female and 32 (35%) were male. Median age was 9 years (of 2 - 18 years).The anti-tTG assays were positive in 16.5% of patients (15/91). Out of 15 patient whose diagnosed as anti-tTG positive, 11 (73%) have been diagnosed as celiac disease by endoscopy and biopsy according to modified marsh classification. All children diagnosed to have celiac disease were kept on a gluten-free diet. Patients were followed-up for six months and showed improvement in growth rate.
Conclusion: Celiac disease a cause of short stature that should be included in diagnostic investigations of short stature.Recommendation: anti-tTG antibody as routine test recommended for all patients with short statures. All patients with idiopathic short statures and anti-tTG test positive with normal IgA level should be subjected to intestinal biopsy to prove the diagnosis of celiac disease.
