The article proposes a model for the computational core of the decision support system (DSS) in assessing the risks of investment loss during the dynamic planning (DP) of Smart City development. In contrast to the existing solutions, the proposed model provides specific recommendations when assessing the risks of loss. In case of an unsatisfactory risk forecast, it is possible to flexibly adjust the parameters of the investment process in order for the parties to achieve an acceptable financial result. The scientific novelty of the results is that for the first time it is proposed to apply a new class of bilinear multistep games. This class allowed us to adequately describe the process of assessing the risks of investment loss, using the example of dynamic planning for the placement of financial resources of players in Smart City projects. A distinctive feature of the considered approach is the use of tools based on the solution of a bilinear multistep game of both quality with several terminal surfaces, and a game of degree solved in the class of mixed strategies. Computational experiments were carried out in the Maple mathematical modeling package, and a DSS was developed in which a risk assessment model was implemented. The developed DSS allows to reduce the discrepancies between the data for predicting the risks of investment loss during the Smart City DP and the real return on investment.

In recent years, some field programmable valve arrays (FPGAs) based on CNN release phase accelerators have been introduced. FPGA is widely used in portable devices. They can be programmed to achieve higher concurrency and provide better performance. The power consumption of the FPGA is lower than that of GPUs with the same workload. These reasons make the FPGA suitable for implementing the CNN release phase. They can provide relative output performance for GPUs and achieve low power consumption, which is very important for portable devices. To effectively implement the CNN output phase on the FPGA, the design should have high parallelism, and the hardware resources used should be minimized to reduce the area and power consumption. In the process of working with the help of a neural network, an algorithm for recognizing handwritten numbers is implemented. A special architecture is being created to implement a neural network at the appatent level. The performance during operation and power consumption is comparable to the performance of the processor and the GPU.

This article examines the work of two Python libraries TextBlob and Dostoevsky for determining the sentiment of reviews in Russian. The TextBlob library does not directly provide sentiment analysis of texts in Russian, but it has the ability to transfer such texts to the input of the Google Translate translator, in order to then evaluate the polarity of these texts based on the generated English translations. The second Dostoevsky library was created specifically for sentiment analysis of texts in Russian and is trained on the largest Russian-language sentiment corpus RuSentiment, which contains more than 30 thousand manually annotated messages. To compare these libraries, this article uses real feedback from residents of the city of Nur-Sultan about the quality of life in the capital, including about the activities of city services and the housing and communal sector, the work of service facilities, education, health care, culture, etc., posted on public Facebook groups. The results of the sentiment analysis carried out are evaluated using generally accepted metrics of accuracy, completeness and F-measure and demonstrate a slight superiority of the Dostoevsky library.

This paper deals with the main methods of traffic classification and describes the functional scheme of a test bench and the test procedure. It provides the results of verifying the hypothesis about the stability of distributions of WhatsApp traffic characteristics. The delivered test results in this paper emphasize the influence of certain traffic characteristics on the final traffic distribution form. In addition, the comparison of the results obtained for the entire set of tests and the results received for individual test sets reveals the absence of other critical traffic characteristics significantly influencing the distribution form concluding in the need for further research. The paper concludes that the stability pattern of distributions of WhatsApp traffic characteristics can be obtained and visualized after more critical traffic characteristics are revealed and processed in similar tests. This paper stands as a pioneer research in assessing the traffic analysis and implementing the results in applied science.

The paper establishes a characterization of the compactness for fractional operators of a general class, including the Riemann-Liouville, Hadamard and Erdelyi-Kober operators. The paper considers an integral fractional integration operator of Hardy type with nonnegative kernels and a variable limit of integration (a function as the upper limit of integration) and under certain conditions on the kernel, a criterion of the compactness in weighted Lebesgue spaces is obtained for this operator, when the parameters of the spaces satisfy the conditions Moreover, more general results are obtained for the weighted differential inequality of Hardy type on the set of locally absolutely continuous functions that vanish and infinity at the ends of the interval, covering the previously known results, and more precise estimates for the best constant are given. The localization method, Schauder’s theorem, the Kantorovich test, and the theorem on the uniform limit of compact operators were used in the proof of the main theorem. The obtained results of the study the compactness of fractional integration operators can be used in the estimation of solutions of differential equations that model various processes in mathematics. In particular, these results yield new results in the theory of Hardy-type inequalities.

Published: December 2021

The lack of normative values of the actual coefficients in the new rules of HOST 34434-2018 do not allow to implement and determine the optimal characte-ristics of the brake according to pre-accepted conditions of braking efficiency (braking distance), which causes uncertainty in solving this problem. The uncertainty is that the choice of characteristics of the braking system of the freight wagon has to be done by searching a large number of options. In this regard, the paper provides tools for determining the actual pressing force of the brake pads on the wheels, which complies with the specified braking performance of the freight train. As a tool, universal formulas are used in the form of a power relationship between the actual force of the brake pads and the braking distance of the freight train. The coefficients of universal formulas are obtained on the basis of computer modeling. Numerous examples show that the error in the use of universal formulas in calculation studies does not exceed 1% compared with the calculation method according to HOST 34434-2018. The values of the actual coefficients depending on the axial load of the wagon and the speed at which the braking distances of the freight train satisfy the normative minimum allowable values are given. It is shown that calculation studies performed according to the universal formulas in the EXCEL environment allows to fully automating the computational process. A method for determining the gear ratio of the brake lever of a freight wagon, according to which the specified braking efficiency is performed, is proposed. The proposed procedure allows you to perform a variety of studies to select the optimal parameters of the braking system of freight wagons that meet the specified requirements of braking efficiency, and greatly facilitates the calculation studies. Key words: аctual coefficient, braking distance, speed, axial load, power dependence, coefficients, gear ratio.

The paper deals with the analysis of the braking efficiency criteria for freight trains formed with wagons that have increased axle load up to 294.3 kN (30 ts) when moving at speeds up to 120 km/h inclusive. Increasing the efficiency of freight trains by increasing the technical and economic performance of cars by increasing the axial load to 294.3 kN (30 ts) and train speeds up to 160 km/h led to the development of technical requirements and rules for braking systems set out in HOST 34434-18. According to the new rules and requirements, the following are accepted as criteria for the braking efficiency of freight wagons, that is, up to the maximum values of the braking distances of the freight train on the site in the specified intervals of speeds of axial loads; calculated coefficients of force of pressing of composite blocks on wheels at braking; the pressing force of the composite pads on the axis in terms of cast iron pads. The calculation of the maximum allowable value of the braking distance of the freight train is performed based on the actual pressing forces and the actual friction coefficients. The paper shows that the specific braking forces obtained using the actual pressing forces exceed the calculated specific braking forces using the calculated coefficients. Based on the above-mentioned, it is concluded that the braking efficiency criteria with reference to the maximum allowable values of the braking distances and the calculated coefficients of the pressing force have a significant discrepancy between each other. It is proposed to use the actual pressure force coefficients instead of the calculated coefficients to assess the braking efficiency of the freight train. The paper presents the permissible values of the actual force values of pressing the pads on the wheels for wagons with axial load (230.5 - 294.3) kN at speeds up to 120 km/h inclusive, for which the braking distance criterion of the freight train is observed. Key words: criterion, braking efficiency, freight train, axial load, braking distance, specific braking force, calculated coefficients, actual coefficient.
Natural and anthropogenic changes threatening the ecological and limnological integrity of Lake Baringo, Kenya: A Review
Authors: Omweno Job , Opiyo Steve , Omondi Argwings , Zablon Wilfred
Published: December 2021

Lakes are characterized by dynamic responses to ecological and limnologic disturbances that occur within a constrained timeframe. Some endorheic lakes in the Kenyan Rift valley are presently regarded as environmental hotspots because of complex changes that are revealed through multiple proxies; changing lake levels and surface area, turbidity and sedimentation, proliferation of macrophytes and loss of aquatic biodiversity. Lake Baringo is characterized by widespread catchment degradation accompanied by high levels of turbidity during erratic and decline of native fishery based on Oreochromis niloticus baringoensis. A careful analysis implicates potential natural factors such as catchment topography and increasing anthropogenic pressure as the main causes of lake ecosystem degradation. This paper recommends several strategies for restoration of Lake Baringo based on an integrated multi-faceted approach which combines catchment rehabilitation, pollution control and provision of alternative livelihoods such as agriculture to the riparian communities.

A brief historical analysis of the formation of engineering geology in the Krasnodar Territory
Authors:   Кuban State University, Shelakina Marina
Published: December 2021

The article discusses the development of engineering and geological research on the example of prospecting and exploration of popular common (construction) minerals in the Krasnodar Territory. A comparative characteristic of the history of engineering geology development is given by analyzing the data of the Fund of the "KUBANGEOLOGY" and the planned economy of the USSR. The set goals and objectives of the planned economy of the USSR directly stimulated engineering and geological research. The peak of prospecting and exploration of popular common (construction) minerals in the Krasnodar Territory falls on the decade from 1970 to 1980, and the main rates - for the period from 1950 to 1980 - during the intensive growth of road, industrial and civil construction. Having arisen to solve the problems of engineering and economic development of territories, engineering geology developed not only in a geological, but geotechnical channel, as evidenced by the separation of surveys from it. The final differentiation from the beginning of 1960 of engineering geology into engineering-geological surveys and engineering geology of building materials proves the need for separation of surveys due to the accumulated regulatory framework and the scale of engineering-geological research, therefore, of the "KUBANGEOLOGY" switched to monitoring of hazardous processes of the geological environment, which is confirmed by the analysis of the fund.
Prolactin Level and Breastmilk Production among Mothers of Low-Birth-Weight Infants Admitted to Level II Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
Authors: Dumalag Jessica Anne A. , Villanueva-Uy Maria Esterlita T. , Raguindin Peter Francis
Published: December 2021

Background. Kangaroo mother care (KMC) has been proven by several studies to promote breastfeeding, but many of the studies focus on the success of exclusive breastfeeding, and less on its galactogenic effects.

Objective. We aim to determine the maternal serum prolactin levels and breastmilk volume of mothers who rendered KMC to their infants.

Materials and Methods. This is a randomized controlled, open-labeled, interventional study in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of a tertiary government hospital. Infants weighing < 2000 grams admitted in NICU Level II, together with medically stable mothers and no contraindication for breastfeeding were simultaneously enrolled. Primary outcome measures were maternal serum prolactin levels and expressed milk volume on day 3 and day 7 postpartum. Two-sample t-test was used to compare groups, and paired t-test to compare within groups. Tests were two-tailed, with a p-value of < 0.05 considered statistically significant.

Trial Registration. Australia-New Zealand Clinical Trial Registry ID ACTRN12614000218695

Results. Fifty mother-infant dyads were equally allocated into KMC and control groups (p < 0.001). There was significantly larger milk volume on the third day (29.6 ± 27.8 mL vs 16.3 ± 26.1 mL; p < 0.001) and seventh post-partum day (72.4 ± 62.3 mL vs 47.3 ± 43.8 mL; p < 0.000). There were increased serum prolactin levels compatible with post-partum state. The increase was more evident in the KMC (5244 ± 2702 mIU/L, on the 3rd postpartum day versus 4969 ± 2426 mIU/L, on the 7th postpartum day, p = 0.996) compared to control group (4129 ± 2485 mIU/L on the 3rd postpartum day versus 3705 ± 2731 mIU/L on the 7th postpartum day, p = 0.301).

Conclusion. We noted a significantly larger milk volume in the KMC group. There was also a greater increase in the prolactin levels in the KMC group, but this did not reach statistical significance. Further studies should be done to determine mechanism of galactogenesis through KMC.
The Physiologic Status of Low-Birth-Weight Infants Before and After Kangaroo Mother Care Sessions: A Retrospective Study
Authors: Peredo Erika Marie C. , Villanueva-Uy Maria Esterlita T.
Published: December 2021

Objective. To compare the physiologic status of infants before and after receiving kangaroo mother care (KMC) through assessment of their heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), temperature, oxygen saturation, and pain scores.

Methods. We conducted a retrospective study by chart review of all low-birth weight (LBW) infants enrolled in the KMC program of a tertiary medical center. Significance is defined by lower HR, RR, PIPP score and FLACC scale, and significant increase in temperature and oxygen saturation (within normal range) after 4 hours after each KMC session.

Results. Out of the 46 LBW weight infants enrolled in the KMC program, only 23 infants had complete chart entries. A total of 99 KMC sessions were analyzed. There was no significant difference in the HR (p = 0.331), RR (p = 0.453), oxygen saturation (p = 0.839), and PIPP (p = 0.387)/FLACC (p = 0.13) scores among the LBW infants before and after the KMC session. However, there was a significantly higher axillary temperature (within normal range) four hours after KMC (p = 0.044).

Conclusions. KMC is associated with better thermoregulation even at four hours after the KMC session compared to four hours before. Other physiologic parameters such as heart rate, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation and pain scores were similar four hours before and after the KMC session.
Kangaroo Mother Care Implementation at the Philippine General Hospital: A Quality Assurance Initiative
Authors: Villanueva-Uy Maria Esterlita T. , Villanueva-Uy Lucille Marie , Chung Andrea Lauren Tang , De Leon-Mendoza Socorro
Published: December 2021

Background. The Philippine General Hospital (PGH) implemented the Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) Program in 2014, recognizing its benefits in helping low birth weight (LBW) infants survive.

Objective. To determine the acceptability and compliance of the stakeholders to the KMC program after one year from implementation.

Method. Data were obtained from the NICU Annual statistics, KMC data forms, logbooks, and questionnaires to the stakeholders-doctors rotating at the NICU, NICU nurses, and mothers enrolled in the KMC program.

Results. One year into the KMC program implementation, the KMC enrollment increased from 57% in 2014 to 75% in 2015. All mothers enrolled in the program said that they received their KMC knowledge from the health providers and firmly believed that KMC benefited them and their infants. The mothers also became more confident in taking care of their babies after each KMC encounter. Although only 50% said they would continue KMC at home, 85% proceeded. Furthermore, both doctors and nurses believed that KMC was beneficial to both mothers and infants, decreased hospital cost and nursing workload. KMC provision was 0.5-6 hours/day. Also, less than half of the data forms were accomplished. The KMC program was acceptable to all stakeholders who believed in the benefits of KMC to preterm infants. The mothers were very receptive and continued KMC even after discharge. However, there was sub-optimal engagement provided by the health providers with the mothers. There was also low adherence to recommended duration of KMC per day provided by the mothers. KMC data records were frequently not accomplished. PGH has instituted strategies to improve the KMC implementation by providing dedicated KMC rooms and supplying meals to mothers to increase KMC duration and frequency. A computer-based program for data entry was developed for the health providers, and a dedicated encoder was assigned.

Conclusion. KMC acceptability was high among stakeholders. Compliance increased after one year, with enrolment going up to 75%. However, adherence to the recommended KMC duration per day and accomplishment of data forms were still sub-optimal.

The inverse problem for the nonstationary radiative transfer equation is considered, which consists in finding the scattering coefficient for a given time-angular distribution of the solution to the equation at a certain point. To solve this problem, the single scattering approximation in the pulsed sounding mode is used. A comparative analysis of the error in solving the inverse problem in the single scattering approximation for two-dimensional and three-dimensional models describing the process of high-frequency acoustic sounding in a fluctuating ocean is carried out. It is shown that in the two-dimensional case the error of the approximate solution significantly exceeds the error in the three-dimensional model.

Published: December 2021

The article is concerned with the study of modern pop culture, which incorporates elements of various types of arts and characterized by wide versatility. On this point, for the first time ever bring forth the problem of integrating the concept of "intermediality" with the study of the performing arts of a popular mass trend. When considering the meaning of the concept of "intermediality" was revealed the versatility of its interpretation from the standpoint of studying the aspects of synthesization in literature, in painting, philosophy, philology, etc. At the same time, it is noted that in the post-Soviet and Western science, the concept of "intermediality" has different interpretations, and in this paper, it is associated with the designation of the concept of "interaction of arts", but more broadly, it involves the interaction of languages of different types of arts in the whole system.
Politics of Togetherness in Dance: The Affective Persistence of somatic Collectivity under post-Fordism.
Authors: Colin Noyale
Published: December 2021

The last decade of scholarship in dance has produced a number of literary contributions which account for the need to theorize the radical potential of dance as a site for political activism in the context of global social and economic crises. As a practitioner, teacher and theorist in dance and performance, working in a UK university, I am interested in exploring the potential of somatics to resist a seemingly utilitarian incorporation of somatic principles into the agenda of neo-liberalism under post-Fordist conditions. In this article, I refer to somatics as an umbrella term to discuss practices related to the dance field including protests, walks, flashmobs and choreographic explorations of performative participation. While these practices might not be widely recognized as somatic practices, I argue that all operate at a somatic level and point to an ever-shifting relationship between the individual, the collective and the social environment. I reflect on a number of theoretical ideas pertaining to the relations between the development of somatics and the intensification of cultural capitalism in contemporary western society. In doing so, I aim to theorize somatics as critical and political practices of collective forms of being and working together. Drawing on instances of collective embodiment, I argue for the politicization of somatic practices as it relates to ideas of affect, ethics and time. I suggest that embodied expressions of collectivity as politicized somatics can develop valid tactics to counter what I observe to be a mimetic phenomenon between dance practices and capitalism. A situation that has been only exacerbated by the Covid 19 pandemic. I propose the concept of somatic collectivity as a way to describe the critical potential of collective embodiment found in dance and its expanded field of practices.

La construcción de las bibliotecas populares en Chile: Sarmiento, el libro y la lectura (1840-1856)
Authors: Soaje de Elías Raquel , Molina Jarpa Felipe
Published: December 2021

Este artículo tiene dos objetivos. El primero de ellos reconstruir el proceso que dio origen a las bibliotecas populares en Chile a partir del contexto político, ideológico y cultural de mediados del siglo XIX. En segundo término, analizar el rol de Domingo Faustino Sarmiento como promotor de esta política pública. Las fuentes sobre las cuales se articula el estudio son principalmente artículos de prensa, documentos oficiales y libros de la época, en donde quedó registrada la huella de aquella iniciativa tempranamente truncada. A partir de lo anterior, se logró identificar cómo el proyecto de las bibliotecas populares, ideado por el sanjuanino, nació a partir de la necesidad que existía de difundir el libro y orientar la práctica lectora, a partir de criterios de utilidad claramente definidos y compartidos por la elite dirigente. Además, se constató cómo confluyeron en este proyecto bibliotecario las ideas de Sarmiento sobre la educación popular y sus propios intereses en el negocio de la imprenta.

Este trabajo, de carácter preliminar, surgió del interés de un grupo de arqueólogas de diferentes regiones de la Provincia de Mendoza (Argentina) reunidas con el objetivo de generar una nueva mirada acerca del lugar de las mujeres en la historia local de la disciplina. Esta visión basada en relatos propios permitió evidenciar, repensar y cuestionar esta historia y seguidamente exponer la situación actual. Para abordar esta problemática se trabajó en el análisis de tres ejes. El primero, se centró en reconocer las trayectorias de las pioneras y evidenciar su presencia en la historia de la arqueología en Mendoza; el segundo eje analizó la existencia de disparidad profesional entre varones y mujeres dentro de la disciplina; el tercero indagó sobre los tipos de violencia ejercida en el ámbito profesional y académico. Los resultados demuestran la invisibilización histórica que han tenido las mujeres pioneras de la disciplina en la provincia entre las décadas de 1940 y 1970. También pudo reconocerse la disparidad y segregación profesional entre mujeres y varones en el ámbito de la docencia y la investigación, en la que las mujeres logran menores avances en la carrera profesional. Por último, se pusieron de manifiesto las acciones concretas de violencia de género experimentadas por las arqueólogas en la actualidad, que dan cuenta de la interiorización de los mecanismos de coerción del patriarcado dentro del sistema académico.
