Published: May 2024

Sistem biometrik menawarkan keunggulan yaitu memiliki keunikan yang berbeda pada setiap manusia. Biometrik juga memiliki keunggulan yaitu bersifat permanen, sulit dipalsukan, sulit diretas atau dicuri, dan anti penyangkalan. Dari berbagai banyak keunggulan biomterik maka penelitian ini membahas pembangkitan kunci berbasis biometrik wajah. Syarat suatu angka acak dianggap sebagai kunci kriptografi yang baik adalah angka acak tersebut lulus uji keacakan. Pada penelitian ini menggunakan algoritma Kanade-Lucas-Tomasi (KLT) untuk pelacakan titik unik wajah dan algoritma Viola Jones untuk pendeteksian wajah pada gambar. Pengujian keluaran nilai hash SHA256 sebagai kunci dari proses ekstraksi titik unik wajah menggunakan NIST Stastical Test Suite (NIST STS) untuk menentukan kunci yang dihasilkan dapat digunakan sebagai kunci kriptografi. Sistem yang diusulkan disimulasikan menggunakan MATLAB versi 2017a. Hasil terhadap uji keacakan angka menunjukkan bahwa kunci keluaran hanya dapat memenuhi 7 dari 15 NIST STS sehingga metode ini tidak lolos uji keacakan. Selain itu, terdapat pengujian histogram dan pengujian False Acceptance Rate (FAR) dan False Rejection Rate (FRR). Pengujian histogram menunjukkan terdapat nilai dominan yang menjelaskan bahwa pixel gambar tersebut tidak terdistribusi rata. Pengujian FAR dan FRR menunjukkkan persentase FAR akan semakin kecil jika nilai threshold semakin tinggi dan nilai FRR akan semakin meningkat dengan Equal Error Rate (EER) pada nilai T=4.

Authors: Ahmad Nazir , Noorani Zainab , Ali Zahid
Published: May 2024

Teachers are role models for their students and considered an asset of any nation's educational system because of their impact on students' personal and intellectual development. The objective of this research is to examine the perspectives of public secondary school teachers in district central Karachi regarding their level of job satisfaction through a simple survey technique. 120 secondary school teachers, including 50 male and 70 female teachers, were selected using simple random sampling. In terms of frequencies, percentages, means, and standard deviations, the data were analyzed using descriptive technique. The results revealed that at the secondary level, teachers were found to be extremely motivated and satisfied for their teaching practices. However, they required a higher level of job satisfaction regarding advantages and benefits, followed by working conditions and physical facilities. The study suggested that pay and benefits, working conditions, and physical facilities should be a priority of administration and policymakers for enhancing teachers' job satisfaction, which ultimately enhances teaching /learning and quality of education.
2 - Corruption and Human Rights: Positioning Judicial Activism as an Anticorruption Strategy in Kenya
Authors: Otieno Ngira David
Published: May 2024

This article locates the conceptual foundations of corruption and human rights by examining the normative and definitional challenges of these terms. By focusing on socioeconomic rights and the principle of equality in access to public services, the paper demonstrates the implications of corruption for the realisation of human rights. It then examines how the thin and thick conceptions of the rule of law interact with corruption. The article further explores legal corruption and the mechanisms by which graft corrupts the law-making process and compromises the rule of law. At the same time, the paper studies the role of judicial activism in fighting institutionalised and legal corruption in Kenya. In conclusion, it maintains that public interest and human rights considerations should be central to the law-making and interpretation processes. To effectively deal with corruption, activist judges should pursue the ends of justice rather than the law in the case of conflict between the two.
The Political Socialization of University Students: A Case Study of the University of Dhaka
Authors: Ahmed Farid Uddin
Published: May 2024

Political socialization is required in order to develop a civic culture among the citizens and instill into youths a cognitive, affective, and evaluative orientation towards the political objects and leaders of any state. This study aims to explore the nature of the political socialization of students at the University of Dhaka. In order to collect the primary data, 400 students from four faculties of the University of Dhaka were surveyed purposively. The study argues that the students at the University of Dhaka are politically socialized, although their degree of political socialization varies among the students according to whether their educational background is in the arts, social sciences, science, or business. Of all the agents, the media impacts the most on the process of students’ political socialization. The study found that most of the students at this university possess the cognitive, affective, and evaluative capacities to understand political issues and objectives. The media, their family, and the university play prominent roles in developing the students’ attitudes and knowledge about political objects and issues. The findings indicate that the media play the most influential role in generating cognitive, affective, and evaluative attitudes and orientations towards the political leaders and political institutions.
Between Comforts and Discomforts: Indo-Bangla Relations in a Changing Reality
Authors: Haque Md. Reazul , Rahman Md. Lutfay Tariq , Rahman Asif
Published: May 2024

Its geographical location, vast population, economy, and the size and power of its military have transformed India into an Asian influence with the cherished dream of becoming a “World Power.” Bangladesh, a country that is almost entirely surrounded by India, is generally regarded as its closest neighbor. These two countries rely on each other for their common strategic interests, such as security and development. It is widely perceived that Indo-Bangla relations are currently at their peak, and that these two countries are jointly moving forward for their mutual benefit. By reviewing the secondary literature for the purpose of conducting an institutional analysis, however, this article will critically analyze this relationship in a changing reality, that comprises the rise of Hindutva, China’s growing influence in South Asia, and the Rohingya crisis, which have causing simultaneously disadvantaged positions for both India and Bangladesh, the latter having been dominated by India historically. Thus, each of these dimensions might potentially turn positive aspects of the Indo-Bangla relations into negative ones, and Delhi must address Bangladesh’s concerns meaningfully in order to safeguard its geopolitical interests.
CNN-TCN: Deep Hybrid Model Based on Custom CNN with Temporal CNN to Recognize Sign Language
Authors: Ahmadi Saad Al , Muhammad Farah , Al Dawsari Haya
Published: May 2024

Sign language plays a pivotal role as a primary means of communication for individuals with hearing and speech impairments. Given their limited auditory and vocal communication abilities, these individuals heavily rely on visual cues, such as body language and hand gestures, to convey their emotions and thoughts in everyday social interactions. Sign language primarily consists of characters (letters) and numerals (numbers). This study introduces an innovative hybrid methodology for automated sign language identification, combining Temporal Convolutional Neural Network (TCNN) and a Custom Convolutional Neural Network (CCNN). The effectiveness of this system was rigorously evaluated using three distinct benchmark datasets that encompass isolated letters and digits. These datasets are comprehensive and publicly accessible resources covering both British and American sign languages. The proposed CNN-TCN model comprises various phases, including data collection, preprocessing (involving labeling, normalization, and frame extraction), feature extraction using CCNN, and sequence modeling through TCNN. The experimental results clearly demonstrate the remarkable performance of the proposed system, with accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 scores reaching impressive levels of 95.31%, 94.03%, 93.33%, and 93.56%, respectively, across the three diverse datasets. These outcomes serve as compelling evidence of the CNN-TCN method’s viability and effectiveness in the realm of sign language recognition.
SUBMERGED
Authors: Bradley Ryan J.
Published: May 2024

This chapter explores educational initiatives for citizen science developed by the South Carolina Institute of Archaeology and Anthropology Maritime Research Division (SCIAA MRD). In 2018, the MRD implemented in-classroom visits to underserved school districts throughout the state. Focused on past, future, and on-going maritime archaeology projects, along with the maritime history of South Carolina, the MRD designed an educational program that simultaneously aligns with social studies curriculum standards and targets new recruits in citizen science. As the programming progresses and online resources are made available for interested educators, the initiative aims to develop partnerships with school districts so that pre-collegiate students can play an active role in the exploration and research of submerged cultural resources in South Carolina as citizen scientists. Therefore, this chapter discusses the MRD’s experiences in funding attainment, engagement methods, and future directions.
Global Impacts
Authors: Wooten Kimberly J.
Published: May 2024

In October 2019, eXXpedition launched a round-the-world sailing voyage that emphasized citizen science in understanding the impacts of single-use plastic in the oceans. The mission of the two-year trip—which featured 30 voyage legs, 300 women, and 38,000 nautical miles—was for multidisciplinary teams of women to learn and assist with scientific data collection and inquiry. The aim was to create “ambassadors” who will bring their global experiences back into their communities to help reduce plastic waste at the local level. Invited to join the crew as an historical archaeologist, the author sailed 1,600 nautical miles from Plymouth, England, to Sao Miguel in the Portuguese Azores. To work with the team, she had to overcome her fears to pursue new directions in the discipline, activism in archaeology, and the applicability of archaeological methods in understanding the material culture of modern plastics. This chapter explores the role of historical archaeology in science-based education and its ties to citizen scientists in overcoming future heritage preservation and ocean conservation issues.
Coastal Urban Archaeology at the Waterfront of the Buenos Aires Estuary
Authors: Weissel Marcelo
Published: May 2024

This chapter presents the status of research and institutionalization of the underwater and coastal cultural heritage of the port city of Buenos Aires. For this purpose, the environmental information and characteristics of the archaeological landscapes surveyed between 1995 and 2019 in excavations carried out in lands "gained from the river" on different parts of the city are presented in a synthetic way. The text begins with a description of the environmental and historical characteristics of the city's coastal sedimentary substrates, natural anchorages and shelters. That is followed by the background and state of the question of archeological investigations, in order to set the basis for the ontological and methodological framework of the work on a regional scale. We continue with the presentation of the materials and archaeological assemblages which were surveyed in order to analyze the variability of sites and the diversity of artifactual functions. The results of the analysis are presented and discussed on a regional scale and chronology, considering the archaeological visibility of coastal embankments, old docks and wharfs, anchorages, sectors with ballast or hides, shipwrecks, barracks and shipyards.
Materials Recovered from the Zen City Shipwreck in the Port of Buenos Aires, Argentina
Authors: Valentini Mónica Patricia
Published: May 2024

Between January 2009 and April 2010, from a rescue excavation, many archaeological materials that formed part of the primary and secondary context of a shipwrecked wooden ship in the Río de la Plata were recovered. Due to the architectural characteristics, it would belong to a medium-sized Spanish merchant from the late eighteenth century that arrived at the Port of Buenos Aires. A strong storm would have stranded it near the mouth of the Riachuelo and after rescuing some elements, the crew left it at the mercy of the waters of the Río de la Plata. Among the items recovered, especially in what we can call the primary context of the shipwrecked remains, we find a large number of objects that were part of the ship's cargo. Others, which we call the secondary context, have to do with the site formation process and post-depositional contexts in an environment of high fluvial dynamics. In this chapter, we will present some variability of recovered objects, especially those that were part of the load.
Healthcare Inequality and Reticence in the Mascarenes
Authors: Čaval Saša , Cianciosi Alessandra
Published: May 2024

This chapter examines a gender dimension within the healthcare for labor migration in Mauritius and, to some extent, Réunion. The archaeological research conducted in the last decade shows how public health management developed during the slavery and indenture periods of European colonialism in the Indian Ocean World, often in relation to emerging epidemic disease outbreaks. The development of health management during Europe’s colonial period is perceived through the exploration of colonial cemeteries for enslaved and indentured laborers. Osteological data were further combined or coalesced with architectural and spatial organization features of other crucial sites used for treating the sick and dead, such as quarantine stations and hospitals, investigated on both main islands of the Mascarenes.
Approaching Past, Present, and Future Urbanisms in Goa, India
Authors: Wilson Brian C.
Published: May 2024

The archives provide historical descriptions of the “rise and fall” of colonial outposts, yet our understanding of the material lives of their residents remains limited to these written sources—sources that are written by and produced for the elite members of colonial society. This chapter reexamines these histories, and the heritage management practices they engender, through an engagement with the archaeological and material data of Velha Goa. These data widen our understanding of the recent past by providing evidence for a range of endurances, helping us redefine the experiences of colonial urban landscapes in the region following ruination. The results of this work argue for a more equitable, less top-down approach to current heritage management practices in Goa and other postcolonial locales.
Introduction
Authors: Lewis Cathleen S.
Published: May 2024

The cosmonaut image originates from a combination of both the influences of the past as well as the needs of politicians in the present, as former Soviet society aimed to balance their communist past between the memory of their power and the regret from their failed and corrupt state. The cosmonaut, originally the image of a Cold War hero, was also reevaluated, despite the lack of controversy surrounding its image. The Russian people struggled to choose between their nostalgia for a more optimistic past and their desire to appoint blame for the broken promises that resulted in their current postwar life. Due to these conversations, a duality now exists within the image of the cosmonaut that represents both youthful hope and victimization. Overall, the re-evaluation of the cosmonaut image provides a directory of the limitations of images created by the state to perpetuate an idealized concept. It also allows for a deeper understanding of how, in general, the Russians reexamined their past in the aftermath of the collapse of the USSR.
The Birth of the Cosmonaut
Authors: Lewis Cathleen S.
Published: May 2024

For many years, a very simple story was told to the world about Yuri Gagarin, the first human being to visit space, to sustain the idealized image of the Soviet space program. Granted, the true story behind this historic accomplishment is much more complicated. The Soviet space program and the individuals operating within it were extremely unique, since the cosmonauts attributed their success to Soviet society as a whole rather than to a specific political leader or even themselves. Rather than focusing on individual achievements or credits, the focus was instead turned toward the general success and scientific potential of human-crewed spaceflight. Accomplishments of the space program were collective achievements, not individual ones. The actual truth of the Soviet space program would also be defined by the secret legacy of space scientists and engineers which grew out of secret projects that went officially unacknowledged even after the launch of Gagarin. The engineers who worked on the public space programs were the same ones who worked on programs like spy satellites that remained secret.
Towards an Allergy Ontology: A Utility-Based Contextual Approach
Authors: Trzmielewski Marcin
Published: May 2024

The aim of the present article is to report the construction of a medical knowl­edge organization system (MKOS) for the Allergy Unit of the Montpellier University Hospital in France, according to a utility-based contextual approach. The inputs from the analysis of information practices of allergy employees and of a corpus of documents used in the Allergy Unit, as well as validation meetings involving allergy professionals, patients, and KO specialists led to the creation of a multidimensional, multiviewpoint and user-friendly ontology. The ontology is potentially useful to support activities of allergy actors, even though its operational, conceptual, terminological and technical aspects still need to be improved. Such a result suggests that the utility of MKOSs is the matter of the content, intentionality and operationality, and should be constructed by designers through contextual interactions with potential users. The idea has been put into a methodological framework, and a Utility in Context Model has been proposed.
Social Epistemology
Authors: Hjørland Birger
Published: May 2024

The term “social epistemology” (SE) was first used by the library and information scientist Jesse Shera in 1951, but soon the term became muddled, and it did not become influential at that time. Later, it became known as the name for two different traditions outside library and information science, one led by Alvin Goldman and based on analytic philosophy, and the other led by Steve Fuller and related to science policy. It seems, however, problematic just to associate the term with these two schools, which, in different ways, are found not to represent genuine approaches to SE. SE is an alternative to individualist epistemologies and, as such, has roots back to Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, Karl Marx, and Charles Peirce, among others. In the twentieth century, the concept became influential in the wake of Thomas Kuhn’s historicist view and in pragmatic, hermeneutic, critical, and feminist views (but mostly not by using the term SE). In these contexts, it represents an alternative to “positivism.”[1] Shera’s 1951 use of the term SE is found to represent the best vision for SE, although it could not be properly concretized before alternatives to positivism were developed in 1962.

Authors: Sander-Faes Stephan Karl
Published: May 2024

Der vorliegende Band umfasst in einem Panorama von rund 100 Jahren den erfolgreichen Machtzuwachs habsburger Herrscher am Ende des Mittelalters und zu Beginn der frühen Neuzeit. Vom letzten Drittel des 15. Jahrhunderts unter der erfolgreichen Expansionspolitik Maximilians I. bis zur ersten Hälfte des 16. Jahrhunderts und der Abdankung Karls V. umgreift der Autor den Aufstieg der Habsburgermonarchie zur europäischen Zentralmacht und schließlich deren Teilung in eine spanische und eine österreichische Linie. Beginnend mit der Kaiserkrönung Friedrichs III. 1440 und der erfolgreichen Heiratspolitik seines Sohnes Maximilian, welche die Grundlage für den großdynastischen Aufstieg der Habsburger bedeutete, schließt der Band mit der zugleich größten Machtfülle und dem Scheitern dieser Ambitionen unter Karl V. Dabei werden sowohl dynastische, rechtliche und territoriale Aspekte als auch zentrale politische Ereignisse wie der Schmalkaldische Krieg und der Augsburger Religionsfriede untersucht.
Literaturgeschichte des Alten Testaments
Authors: Schmid Konrad
Published: May 2024

Wie können wir das Alte Testament besser verstehen? Vor dem Hintergrund einer fast unübersehbar gewordenen Forschungslage bietet Konrad Schmid hier eine zusammenfassende Darstellung der Literaturgeschichte der alttestamentlichen Texte. Dazu wird vor allem verdeutlicht, in welcher historischen Situation diese Teile der Bibel entstanden sind, wie sie sich zu den anderen Zeugnissen der Zeit verhalten und welche Entwicklungsstufen für sie beschrieben werden können. So werden die verschiedenen ›Schichtungen‹ sichtbar, und es wird nachvollziehbar, warum sich der heute bekannte Text herausgebildet hat. Der Band diskutiert die verschiedenen Forschungsansätze zum Thema und ermöglicht so eine gründliche Orientierung in Forschung und Lehre. Die überarbeitete Neuauflage wird durch ein neues Kapitel zur historischen Linguistik als Datierungsmöglichkeit biblischer Texte ergänzt.
Three Short Encounters with Gus Van Sant
Authors: Peary Gerald
Published: May 2024

Three interviews with the American independent filmmaker Gus Van Sant about three of his movies make up this chapter. He talks of the rapport making My Private Idaho between his young star, River Phoenix, and the middle-aged director-turned-actor William Richert, and of his choice to cast the German actor Udo Kier because he’d been in Andy Warhol’s Dracula. He next speaks of Gerry, starring Casey Affleck and Matt Damon, an often silent, minimalist film about two guys who take a long walk in the wilderness. “To me, a whole lot happens in Gerry. If you don’t like it, it might drive you crazy.” Finally, Van Sant discusses Elephant, his fictional recreation of a Columbine-like massacre. He decided to shoot his characters in a dispassionate way, so audiences observe their actions like a Frederick Wiseman documentary.

Error bars for lexicostatistical estimates, with a case study comparing the diversity of Chinese and Romance
Authors: Maxwell Alexander , McMillan Louise
Published: May 2024

This paper applies statistical techniques for measuring sampling error to lexicostatistics, a field in which error has often been discussed, but only rarely measured. We specifically calculate a margin of error for lexicostatistical comparisons based on Swadesh-type vocabulary lists, and use chi-squared tests to estimate a minimum threshold for when two lexicostatistical measurements will be statistically significantly different from one another. The article includes charts which mathematically unsophisticated scholars can easily use to check margins or error. We use margin of error calculations to test the claim that the relative internal diversity of Romance “languages” and Chinese “dialects” is equivalent, finding that no result is possible with extant lexicostatistical studies. We end by suggesting that lexicostatistical dendrograms depict uncertainty with “fat branches,” that is, branches whose width corresponds to statistical uncertainty.

Background and Aim: We sought to explore whether or not this excessive use of smart technology may be associated with a generational change in the cervical spine over time. Methods and Results: All those patients who underwent cervical spine MRI aged 15 to 30 years over the years June 2007 to 2008 and June 2017 to 2018 were considered for evaluation. Each patient had measurement of their Cobb angle and a modified Pfirrmann grade. 217 patients - 83 (2007-2008) and 134 (2017-2018) were evaluated. There was no difference in cervical alignment over time, but males tended to have a greater lordosis(p<0.001). Using the modified Pfirrmann grading system a difference over time was noted most noticeable at C2/3 (p=0.004); C3/4 (p=0.019 and C7/8 (p=0.003). Conclusion: There was no change in the structural integrity of the cervical spine between the two groups over time. A worsening degenerative disease without a structural change was observed, an effect was more apparent in the males.

Authors: Elmatboly Mohamed , Elmelhat Ahmed
Published: May 2024

Introduction: Coarctation of the aorta is a condition characterized by a narrowed segment of the aorta due to thickening of the artery wall. This case study highlights the late diagnosis of coarctation of the aorta in an 11-year-old male child who presented with symptoms initially suggestive of a respiratory infection. Case study: An 11-year-old male presented to the outpatient department with chief complaints of fever, cough, and poor appetite. He developed two episodes of epistaxis and hypertension with soft systolic murmur. Echocardiography showed severe coarctation of the aorta. Discussion: Coarctation of the aorta is a relatively common congenital heart defect that can remain asymptomatic until later in childhood or adulthood. It is the seventh most common type of CHD. The delay in the diagnosis of coarctation of the aorta underscores the challenges of recognizing cardiac anomalies in pediatric patients presenting with nonspecific complaints. Conclusion: Healthcare providers must remain vigilant and thorough in their assessment to prevent late diagnoses and associated complications in pediatric patients.
