In this paper, a neural network based methodology of joints configuring is proposed for linear Delta robots, optimal in terms of minimizing the consumed energy. Since the techniques developed for serial robots are severely limited in parallel robotics, where many parameters affecting robot behaviour are either unstable or absent, a new purely data-driven approach has been developed and studied in the conditions of incomplete prior knowledge of robot geometric and mass properties. In the current research, the forward and inverse kinematics solvers are designed, the workspace of the robot is estimated, forward and inverse statics problems are resolved, and the most economical joint configurations are found with the help of the neural network robot model validated experimentally on the linear Delta robot EXPT-45-E1. The method offered in this study can be used in many other robotics applications, especially for the pick-and-place operations, where energy saving comes out on top. Key words. Energy consumption, linear Delta robots neural network based model, pick-and-place robotics.

Personality traits are characteristics that can describe a person’s behavior, also reflecting their thoughts and feelings. There are those who support the idea that traits can be strong predictors of leadership, implying emotional stability of the individual. Knowing the importance of the subject, areas such as psychology and neuropsychology have been studying and analyzing personality, aiming to better understand such patterns that guide behavior. A model widely accepted to categorize personality traits is known as Big Five and uses the acronym OCEAN: Openness, Conscientiousness, Extroversion, Agreeableness and Neuroticism. On the other hand, new approaches that emerged from the field of computer vision allow to analyzing personality from visual data, making this new area of research quite attractive for researchers. This work presents an initial study of the use of the Transformer architecture to analyze personality traits, with a specific focus on extroversion, using digital videos of human faces. A literature review was carried out focusing on the application of computational techniques in this issue involving deep learning and Transformers. We also accomplished an experiment analysing Extroversion personality trait, as a starting point for our studies, using the ChaLearn dataset. An AUC (Area under the ROC Curve) value of 71.04% was obtained, with fine adjustment of parameters in the transformer, demonstrating the robustness of the proposed architecture.

Published: July 2024

Modern graphics APIs expose control over the infamously non-coherent GPU caches to application programmers through the mechanisms of pipeline barriers and render passes. A developer is then asked to group together their GPU computations based on memory access patterns such that cache flushes and invalidations are minimized, but render graph systems enable automation of this process. In this paper, we study the problem of finding an optimal execution order for a frame graph to minimize the amount of render pass breaks, which in turn minimizes cache control operations. We formulate and analyze a novel $NP$-complete problem $lang{MLGP}$ and use it to propose an approach to render pass merging that results in 30\% less render pass breaks when compared to previous works.

Authors: Blázquez López Kristina
Published: July 2024

Este artículo revisará la respuesta TERF que ha habido en los últimos años, con especial atención en el contexto de España. Para ello se analizará la influencia de una nueva ola neoconservadora en estos discursos, examinando el peso que ha tenido la Iglesia católica en la creación de un argumentario capaz de aglutinar a diferentes agentes sociales y ejercer presión sobre estos. A continuación, se plantea un análisis sobre la permeabilización de estos discursos en política, desde la extrema derecha hasta lograr asentar los argumentos antigénero dentro de los movimientos considerados feministas. Con ello se pretende trazar una reflexión sobre las razones detrás de la acogida del movimiento TERF en España y sobre si este se pudiera considerar, aun así, como parte de los movimientos feministas.

From mills to millets, the mediating role of regiocentrism on materialism: Augmenting the theory of planned behavior
Authors: Joshi Shivam , Sengar Anita , Nautiyal Atri , Joshi Anil Prakash , Kumar Rakesh
Published: July 2024

The United Nations General Assembly declared 2023 the “International Year of Millets” in order to promote millet cultivation, consumption, and conservation. Millets play an important role in food security, livelihoods, and biodiversity. Despite its numerous benefits, millet cultivation and consumption in Uttarakhand have declined due to a variety of constraints. This paper examines the effects of regiocentrism and materialism on intention towards Uttarakhand’s regional food products (millets). It employs PLS-SEM to investigate relationships between latent variables and generate results on a sample of 460 participants. This study elucidates the intricate interplay between materialism, regiocentrism, and intention towards regional food products in the Himalayan region, enriching the theory of planned behavior (TPB) with a nuanced understanding of personal values and regional identity. It reveals materialism’s positive association with attitudes towards regional food products, suggesting materialistic individuals may view these products as status symbols, thus affecting behavioral intentions. Additionally, the research highlights regiocentrism’s dual influence—enhancing attitudes yet deterring purchase intentions—underscoring the complexity of regional pride in consumer decision-making. These findings advance TPB by integrating broader value systems and cultural context, offering significant theoretical and practical insights for promoting sustainable consumption patterns.

Earnings Management in Business Groups during the SARS-CoV-2 Pandemic
Authors: Comporek Michał
Published: July 2024

This paper aims to assess the influence of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic on the accrual-based earnings management patterns in non-financial business groups in the Warsaw Stock Exchange (WSE). This study contributes to the existing literature by considering earnings manipulation behaviours in assessing the reporting data quality, both in consolidated financial statements of business groups and individual financial statements of parent undertakings. The research methods are based on the Modified Jones Model with the simultaneous separation of individual subcategories of accruals via cross-sectional analysis and time-series data approach (separately for each business group). Empirical findings supported the presumption that earnings manipulation schemes in the SARS-CoV-2 transitional (2020) and crisis (2021) periods differed statistically compared to the previous 2019 and 2020 years, respectively. Moreover, this article proved that the company‘s potential financial distress could imply accrual-based earnings management behaviours and moderate the association between the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic and earnings manipulations activities. Finally, the obtained results confirmed that although business groups have an expanded set of balance sheet policy instruments, the quality of earnings reported in the individual financial statements of parent undertakings and the consolidated financial statements of business groups were similar during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic.
Investigating challenges and responses in supply chain management amid unforeseen events
Authors: Ryciuk Urszula , Zabrocka Agnieszka
Published: July 2024

The emergence of increasingly complex global supply networks and the rising risk of unpredictable events may have far-reaching consequences for various industries and the global economy. The impact unpredictable events have on supply chains remains a relatively underexplored area that requires further research and analysis. Current studies primarily concentrate on singular events, particularly the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on supply chains. This research aims to identify the main challenges in supply chain management resulting from unforeseen events and the actions taken in supply chains in response to them. The research is based on individual in-depth interviews conducted with a purposive sample of experts in supply chain management using a partially structured interview questionnaire. The research results were analysed using Nvivo v. 17.1, software for qualitative data analysis. A hybrid approach was employed for data coding. The research indicates several problems and the main remedial actions in supply chains in response to unforeseen events. Unforeseen events in the supply chain affect almost all supply chain operations: procurement, planning (including inventory planning and maintenance of company resources and production lines), logistics management (including transportation), and order management. The research indicated that cooperation, integration, and information exchange within the supply chain are crucial for effective responses to unforeseen events. Furthermore, the research highlighted the positive impact of unforeseen events on supply chain innovation. Moreover, there is an observed prevalence of intuitive management, particularly when responding to unexpected events. The research findings can serve as a basis for further discussions and studies on the potential impact and consequences of future unexpected events on supply chain resilience.

Published: July 2024

Electromagnetic levitation (EML) is a promising technique allowing to melt various materials, including refractive metals, while avoiding physical contact between the molten material and components of the melting system, thus avoiding contamination of the molten material. EML coils act both as a container and a heating source for a conductive sample placed within it. EML systems are difficult to optimize for specific tasks and computational simulations are often used to aid the process. Development of simulations of EML processes is an ongoing field of research. Obtaining precise experimental measurement data of EML processes is important for development and verification of computational simulations. This study aims to provide experimental data of simultaneous measurements for magnetic field, Joule heating and lift force in different conical EML coils with a counterturn.

A male infant presented to Enrique Garces Hospital in Quito, Ecuador with targetoid skin lesions suggestive of a drug reaction. The patient continued with the spread of the targetoid lesions and hand-foot and mouth oedema, the primary diagnosis was Kawasaki disease, but the patient continued with respiratory symptoms, and SARS-CoV-2 test yielded positive. The patient had an excellent therapeutic response and cardiological follow-up with no findings of cardiac lesions. As new crops of mutations of COVID appear, one should think of cutaneous associations to the syndrome.

This study is a prospective case-control study involving 50 pre-eclamptic and 50 healthy pregnant women at the Tikrit Teaching Hospital from November 2022 to June 2023. The two groups were controlled for age, parity, and gestational age. Fasting serum total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (Tg), high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL), low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL), and very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) were assayed using standard methods. An interview was carried out with those patients using a questionnaire form that included their demographic characteristics (age, body weight, height, blood pressure, edema, and maternal body mass index). A proper obstetric, abdominal, and medical examination, ultrasonography, and laboratory investigations were done. The mean ± SD of the TC (230.54±40.3), Tg (191.14±47.3), LDL (125.6±26.3), and VLDL (42.44 ±13.4) were higher in pre-eclampsia (PE) than the control group (165.06± 24.02), (153.3±31.6), (105.3±13.7), and (35.3±8.3), respectively. The mean ± SD of the HDL (37.58±7.6) was lower among the PE group than the control group (42.18±8.3). The mean ± SD of the TC (257.5±31.02), Tg (209.1±40.41), HDL (37.1±5.8), LDL (141.7±23.6), and VLDL (44.5±9.3) were higher among the severe PE group than the mild PE group (195.1±17.05), (174.2±24.7), (39.35±5.4), (123.2±20.3), and (39.3±7.6), respectively. As well as the control group (165.06± 24.02), (153.3±31.6), (42.18±8.3), (105.3±13.7), and (35.3±8.3), respectively. Serum lipid levels were significantly raised among pre-eclamptic pregnant women when compared to healthy pregnant women. The raised serum lipid level was higher among cases with severe PE than those with mild PE.

With the popularization of microgrid system especially in mining caves, remote islands, and other areas, the independent microgrid system greatly improves its quality of life and improves its working environment. However, the large-scale use of power electronic equipment makes the stability of the region’s independent power supply system decline, making it easy to cause serious consequences such as delinking in the face of different perturbations, the cause of which is mostly due to the irrational distribution of perturbation power. Based on this, this paper selects the parameters to be modified for the time scale by comparing the advantages and disadvantages of the two types of parallel systems, and then reasonably sets the ratio of key parameters according to the size of the perturbation to maximize the power supply duration and safety of components, and finally verifies its validity through Matlab/Simulink.

The abolition of environmental permits for business activities in the Ciptaker Law has generated quite reasonable debate. Environmental permits are one method of preventing environmental damage and pollution. The abolition of this environmental permit aims to facilitate investment for investors, both domestic and foreign investors. This article will discuss the function of licensing and what are the impacts and threats to the environment of the abolition of environmental permits in the Ciptaker Law.
Rights of nature as an alternative or a complement to existing environmental protection
Authors: Suárez Julián
Published: July 2024

One of the most refined expressions of rights-based approaches to environmental protection, rights of nature have come a long way since the early 2000s. They have developed into full-fledged governance structures that could either improve or potentially replace duty-based existing environmental protection within domestic jurisdictions. However, even though they advance sustainable development values, both eco-theological and local participative governance strands of rights of nature have encountered shortcomings; several of them particularly related with the scope of protection derived from their explicit content. From a legal analysis perspective, a predominantly doctrinal and comparative approach can contribute to shedding light on rights of nature legal potency. Preliminary conclusions wouldshow that from a legal analysis under this approach comprising four European domestic rights of nature legal frameworks, a bundle of indicators can be extracted to determine whether a certain rights of nature provision could be discarded as capable of enhancing or even substituting existing environmental protection

Background.Traumatic optic neuropathy is a disturbance of visual functions due to direct or indirect damage to the optic nerve as a result of traumatic exposure. Purpose. To evaluate the effectiveness of magnetic and color stimulation in the prevention of traumatic optic neuropathy. Material and methods. To solve the tasks set in the work, 60 (60 eyes) were examined, of which they were patients with hemodynamic changes according to Doppler ultrasound after an injury to the middle zone of the face. Depending on the treatment, the following representative groups were identified for patients: control, 1st, 2nd, the last two constituted the main group of patients examined. Patients in the control group received conservative treatment. Patients of the 1st main group – received the treatment used in the control group, but instead of local magnetic stimulation. Patients of the 2nd main group – received the treatment used in the 1st main group, but instead of local color stimulation. Results.Combined physiotherapeutic and combined ophthalmologic conservative treatment of the patients of the main group showed a reliable improvement of hemodynamic parameters. Conclusion.The use of color and magnetic stimulation in combination with traditional conservative therapeutic measures in the prevention of traumatic optic neuropathy increased the effectiveness of therapeutic measures. This method allows you to more effectively improve and stabilize the important functions of the patient. Keywords: color and magnetic stimulation, dopplerography of the arteries of the eye, visual evoked potentials, traumatic optic neuropathy
