Authors: Meneguitti Dias Felipe , Ribeiro Estela , moreno ramon , Ribeiro Adele , samesima nelson , pastore carlos , Krieger Jose , Antonio Gutierrez Marco
Published: August 2023

The electrocardiogram (ECG) serves as a valuable diagnostic tool, providing crucial information about life-threatening cardiac conditions such as Atrial Fibrillation and Myocardial Infarction. A prompt and efficient assessment of ECG exams in environments like emergency rooms (ERs) can significantly improve the chances of survival for high-risk patients. In this study, we have developed an artificial intelligence-driven screening system specifically designed to analyze 12-lead ECG images. Our proposed method has been trained on an extensive dataset comprising 99,746 12-lead ECG exams collected from the ambulatory section of a tertiary hospital. The primary objective was to accurately classify the exams into three classes: Normal (N), Atrial Fibrillation (AFib), and Other (O). The evaluation of our method resulted in AUROC scores of 95.3%, 99.1%, and 93.3% for N, AFib, and O, respectively. To further validate our approach, we conducted evaluations using the Chinese Physiological Signal Challenge database. In this evaluation, we achieved AUROC scores of 91.8%, 97.5%, and 70.4% for the classes N, AFib, and O, respectively. Additionally, we assessed our method using 1,074 exams acquired in the ER, and achieved AUROC values of 98.3%, 98.0%, and 97.7% for the classes N, AFib, and O, respectively. Finally, we developed and deployed a system with a trained model within the ER of a tertiary hospital for research purposes. The system automatically retrieves newly captured ECG chart images from the Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) within the ER. These images undergo necessary preprocessing steps and serve as input for our proposed classification method. This comprehensive approach has resulted in the establishment of an efficient and versatile end-to-end framework for ECG classification. The results of our study highlight the potential of leveraging artificial intelligence in the screening of ECG exams, offering a promising solution for the rapid assessment and prioritization of patients in the ER.

SECURITISATION OF CYBER SPACE - FROM PRISM OF DETERRENCE STRATEGY
Authors: Anjum Ali
Published: August 2023

Deterrence in cyber space has most often succumbed to the technical and legal limitations of digital and physical world respectively. Cyber deterrence aims to deter an (unwanted) cyber interaction by not only rendering it technically unfeasible but also increasing the ex-post facto costs for the aggressor. Despite major challenges confronting realization of "perfect in domain cyber deterrence", this paper aims to develop a novel subject-object relationship in a given cyber environment and makes a case of achieving credible "cyber deterrence" through comprehensive application of denial and punishment strategies. Doing so, while capitalizing on snap history of cyber interactions, it also projects the potential "cyber escalation ladder" and forecasts the future of cyber deterrence, which can guide the policy makers to meet desired ends. 
Reconstructing Horizontal Displacement through Deep Learning in Multiple-pairwise Satellite Image Correlation
Authors: Li Chenglong , Chen Zhuohui , Ma Zhangfeng , Xi Xi , Han Nana , Zhang Guohong , Wei Shengjie , Shan Xinjian
Published: August 2023

Data collected from optical remote sensing systems can be used to effectively measure ground horizontal displacements related for example to earthquake ruptures, glacier flows, dune migrations, and slow landslides. However, displacement of interest is often corrupted with and even hidden under a considerable amount of unwanted noise. Most traditional methods can eliminate such noise but may change unexpectedly our concerned displacement pattern. If the clean displacement can be recovered, with unwanted noise removed, we can more accurately interpret how tectonic process contributes to surface displacement. With the recently successful application in geodetic deformation denoising, deep learning is also expected to be able to address the problem associated with optical displacement. Here, we trained a deep-learning-based autoencoder on a real noise dataset generated from a large amount of Sentinel-2 images. We applied the autoencoder to synthetic and real test datasets to successfully eliminate the unwanted noises in given MPICs, accurately revealing noise-free displacement signals. Interestingly, we even discovered detailed surface migrating information about a dune near the Maduo earthquake in the Tibet Plateau. The finding highlights the autoencoder is a robust method that can also improve horizontal displacement caused by those tectonic processes other than just earthquakes.

LA SOSTENIBILIDAD DE LA VIDA COMO CLAVE TEÓRICO-POLÍTICA FEMINISTA EN PROCESOS DE FORMACIÓN EN EXTENSIÓN EN ECONOMÍA SOCIAL Y SOLIDARIA.
Authors: OSORIO CABRERA Daniela , VERAS IGLESIAS Gabriela
Published: August 2023

Desde nuestra labor como docentes e investigadoras, venimos trabajando los diálogos fértiles que se abren entre la Economía Social y Solidaria (ESS) y la Economía Feminista (EF). En las últimas tres ediciones (2019-2021-2022) del Curso-Taller Cooperativismo y Economía Solidaria abordamos esta intersección. El objetivo de la comunicación, es generar una reflexión sobre cómo las claves teóricas que se desprenden de la EF, en especial la Sostenibilidad de la Vida (SDV) y la centralidad de los cuidados en esta propuesta, han aportado a los procesos de extensión y experiencia pedagógicas enmarcadas en el curso-taller. Mirar al campo de la ESS a partir de la idea de SDV que desarrollan Cristina Carrasco (2001), Amaia Pérez-Orozco (2015) y Daniela Osorio-Cabrera (2018), nos nutre de nuevas preguntas, interpelando los trazos patriarcales presentes en sus prácticas y en las formas que se produce conocimiento. También nos permite poner a jugar lo afectivo-relacional en el trabajo en aula. Por otro lado, la perspectiva de la extensión crítica-feminista y la epistemología feminista nos aportan herramientas para pensar cómo queremos producir conocimiento reconociendo nuestras posiciones situadas y parciales. Para llevar adelante esta propuesta tomaremos en cuenta trabajos finales estudiantiles y notas personales acerca de nuestra experiencias como docentes.

Published: August 2023

This paper probes the bad effects of being a model girl whose life gets entrapped between illusion and reality. The paper illuminates those bad effects (being an ideal woman, making real friends and lovers, and modeling career, behavior and style) of illusion respectively, depending on Friedman's short story "beautiful scars". These bad effects of illusion contrast with reality that Friedman shown through the faith in Jesus, real friendship, real love.Sheshowed the complete reality of human beingsviathe death of themain character "Jade". The paper presented the findings that the writer explainedby making the contrast between illusion of life and reality of death to focus on the problems of modeling life. Finally, Friedman approved that there is no everlasting beauty, no real friendship in the life of appearance, no real love in the life of temptations and modeling career is not a perfect one as being thought by young girls.
The Pragmatic Nature of Manipulation
Authors: Al-Hindawi Fareed , Kamil Salwa Ibrahim
Published: August 2023

Broadly defined, manipulation is a kind of covert behavior or a means, whether linguistic or non- linguistic, used by manipulators in certain communicative encounters to achieve their goals, desires, and interests regardless of the perceptual, cognitive , and emotional feelings of their interlocutors. In this regard, they utilize myriad devices, especially those dishonest ones, like cunning, lying, making tricks, deceiving, and the like. To be successful in doing so, manipulators should have a cognition which enables them to pursue their own interests through making use of some aspects of human cognition, notably reasoning, checking for likeliness, and emotions. As such, manipulators play on their targets’ weaknesses to influence their motivation, beliefs, emotions, and reaction. For some scholars, manipulation is a psychologicalissuebecause it can be considered as a kind of human behavior or cognition. For others, it falls within the region of cognitive pragmatics since it is basically based on the use of cognition in relation to context. In this study, as far as language use is concerned, it is argued that manipulation is more pragmatic than psychological in nature. Besides, it is characterized by pragmatic features other than the cognitive ones. Hence, it is felt, here, that there is a need to reveal those pragmatic aspects to locate its treatment in its right place. This is done by means of identifying the relationship between manipulation and various pragmatic theories and issues.
Renewal in Contemporary Islamic Thought Dr. Abdul-Jabbar Al-Rifai (a model)
Authors: سماري جواد كاظم , الاعرجي مروة احمد
Published: August 2023

From all of the above, we can conclude a set of conclusions or opinions, the most important of which are:
Al-Rifai affirms that we cannot modernize religious thinking in Islam except by getting rid of the inherited theological systems in which confusion and confusion take place between God and people's perception of God, between the sacred and humans' perception of the sacred.
The concept of the sacred expands to include many meanings, and its definitions vary in a way that makes it difficult to grasp one meaning for it. And the sacred is related to what is religious in many of its forms and fields, but sometimes the sacred has a field outside religion in its usual and customary sense, because it is also related to the nature of societies and their limits in it. We can say: Everything we give a value dimension that goes beyond our existence as human beings is “sacred” in a way.

Published: August 2023

To increase the level of accumulated deformations during angular pressing, known routes are used, based on inter-transitional rotation of the workpiece at a certain angle before the next installation in a stamp. With the advent of relatively new methods for obtaining of bulk ultrafine-grained materials, the possibility of combining angular pressing and its rotation in accordance with a given route in one pass of the workpiece through intersecting channels of the die in accordance with a given route is studied, for which a technological process is developed and studied, in which equal-channel angular pressing and screw extrusion are combined. The computer simulation of the proposed process made it possible to reveal the features of the kinematics of the flow in the channels of the die, to predict the values of the contact pressure, power parameters and the resulting stresses and accumulated deformations in the volume of the pressed billet.

The results of evaluation and analysis of technological modes of diffusion welding in vacuum of titanium alloy VT6 using mathematical modeling are presented. Within the framework of the general concept of mathematical modeling existing in the description of powder metallurgy processes, a mathematical model was used to solve planar problems of the plastic flow of metal, which allows us to study the stress-strain state of real materials in the process of their formation. To solve the flat problems of plastic metal flow, a developed technique was used, which allows calculating and having experimental rheological dependencies, as well as mechanical test data, to choose the deformation modes optimal from the point of view of the quality of joints when they are obtained by diffusion welding in vacuum. The results obtained made it possible to optimize the parameters of diffusion welding of titanium powder blanks.

Authors: Zaides S.A. , Nguyen Huu Hai
Published: August 2023

The article presents the results of experimental studies to determine the influence of the parameters of reverse surface plastic deformation (RPD) on the mechanical properties of the surface layer of cylindrical parts made of carbon steel 45. To implement the proposed method of finishing and hardening processing, a device has been developed that provides reverse circular motion of the working tool. Using the HBRV-187.5 hardness tester, HMV-G21 microhardness tester and MET-2 microscope, the hardness of the surface layer, microhardness, grain structure and depth of the hardened layer of hardened parts were determined. Experimental studies have shown that after reverse SPD, the hardness of the surface layer increases by 9...15 % compared to the hardness of the original surface, and the microhardness increases by 1,6...1,8 times, which leads to a significant hardening of the surface layer. The depth of the hardened layer is 0.8...1.6 mm, and the degree of hardening is 55...80 %. According to the results of experimental studies and using the PyCharm computer program with the Python programming language, the optimal modes of hardening by reverse SPD were determined, providing both the maximum depth and the highest degree of hardening of the surface layer, which are formed under the following processing modes: longitudinal feed 0.08...0,10 mm/rev; workpiece rotation frequency 280...300 rpm; the value of the radial interference 0.28...0.30 mm; reverse speed RI 290...300 strokes/min; the initial installation angle of RI is 90° and the value of the angle of reverse rotation of RI is ±15°.
