SWARM UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLES (UAVS)-BASED FOG COMPUTING PLATFORM SUPPORTING INTERNET OF THINGS APPLICATIONS
Authors: El Sayed O. H. , Youssef S. M. , Ismail O. M.
Published: December 2023

Abstract. Swarm robots, particularly drone swarms, are commonly used in search and rescue, military, and detection missions. However, due to their limited computing resources, it can be difficult to handle computation-intensive tasks locally. To address this, cloud-based computation offloading is often used, but it may cause latency issues for time-sensitive tasks like object recognition and path planning. Additionally, in environments with no wireless infrastructure, such as disaster areas or battlefields, cloud computing may not be feasible. To solve this problem, this paper proposes integrating Fog Computing with Swarm of Drones architecture. The paper also formulates the problem as a task allocation problem that minimizes energy consumption while accounting for latency and reliability constraints. To improve swarm autonomy, an integrated framework is proposed, and a testbed development is introduced to support this architecture. The paper reviews existing literature on UAV swarm and proposes a new architecture to enhance swarm autonomy.

Published: December 2023

Abstract. Automated tree classification from unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) images is a challenging task with several applications in forest management and conservation. In this study, we propose UAV4Tree a Deep Learning based system that automatically classifies RGB optical images obtained by the UAV. In particular, we explore the use of augmented datasets and various deep learning models, including ResNet, DenseNet, InceptionV3, and Vision Transformer, for the classification of tree images obtained from UAVs. Our experiments show that the use of an augmented dataset can significantly improve the accuracy of the classification by approximately 10 points compared to the use of a non-augmented dataset. We also found that fine-tuning and the introduction of dropout were essential for improving the generalization ability of the models on the augmented dataset. Furthermore, the use of Super Resolution Generative Adversarial Network (SR-GAN) in the original dataset allowed us to increase the performance of some models. Our findings provide valuable insights into the use of deep learning models for automated tree classification from UAV imagery, which has significant implications for sustainable forest management and conservation.

Published: December 2023

Abstract. Benthic habitats mapping is essential to the management and conservation of marine ecosystems. The traditional methods of mapping benthic habitats, which involve multibeam data acquisition and manually collecting and annotating imagery data, are time-consuming. However, with technological advances, using machine learning (ML) algorithms with structure-from-motion (SfM) photogrammetry has become a promising approach for mapping benthic habitats accurately and at very high resolutions. This paper explores using SfM photogrammetry and extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) classifier for benthic habitat 3D mapping of a vertical wall at the Charlie-Gibbs Fracture Zone in the North Atlantic Ocean. The classification workflow started with extracting frames from video footage. The SfM was then applied to reconstruct the 3D point cloud of the wall. Thereafter, nine geometric features were derived from the 3D point cloud geometry. The XGBoost classifier was then used to classify the vertical wall into rock, sponges, and corals (Case 1 - three classes). In addition, we separated the sponges class into three types of sponges: Demospongiae, Hexactinellida, and other Porifera (Case 2 - five classes). Moreover, we compared the results from XGBoost with the widely used ML classifier, random forest (RF). For Case 2, XGBoost achieved an overall accuracy (OA) of 74.45%, while RF achieved 73.10%. The OA improved by about 10% from both classifiers when the three types of sponges were combined into one class (Case 1). Results showed that the presented 3D mapping of benthic habitat has the potential to provide more detailed and accurate information about marine ecosystems.
A METHOD OF REORDERING LOSSLESS COMPRESSION OF HYPERSPECTRAL IMAGES
Authors: Gao X. , Wang L. , Li T. , Xie J.
Published: December 2023

Abstract. An improved lossless compression method with adaptive band reordering and minimum mean square error prediction was proposed to address the problems of huge data volume of remote sensing images, great pressure on transmission and storage and a low compression ratio. This method may determine the optimal band ordering adaptively, and make full use of the ordering correlation to eliminate the image redundancy according to the minimum mean square error criterion. First, it adaptively grouped hyperspectral image bands, and used the minimum spanning tree algorithm for band ordering within each group to enhance the inter-spectral correlation of adjacent bands. Later, it selected the contexts for inter- and intra-spectral prediction adaptively for the bands within the group to remove the redundancy of hyperspectral images. Finally, it conducted binary arithmetic coding of the predicted residuals to remove the statistical redundancy, and complete the lossless compression of hyperspectral images. The test results based on the hyperspectral images of ZY1-02D show that the method in this paper effectively utilizes the intra- and inter-spectral correlations, improves the prediction performance, and outperforms the commonly used compression methods.
A NOVEL HYBRID MODEL BASED ON CNN AND MULTI-SCALE TRANSFORMER FOR EXTRACTING WATER BODIES FROM HIGH RESOLUTION REMOTE SENSING IMAGES
Authors: Zhang Q. , Hu X. , Xiao Y.
Published: December 2023

Abstract. Extracting water bodies from high-resolution remote sensing images has always been a challenging and hot task in the field of remote sensing. Considering that the accuracy and reliability of water body extraction still have some room for improvement, this paper proposes a hybrid network model based on CNN and multi-scale transformer for water body extraction from high-resolution remote sensing images. Specifically, the proposed network first uses a CNN model to extract a series of multi-scale features from shallow to deep from remote sensing images. These multi-scale features are then fed into a designed multi-scale transformer module to extract global contextual association information of water bodies. Afterwards, the water separability in the new multi-scale features output from the multi-scale transformer module is evaluated separately, and the features at different scales are adaptively weighted and fused according to their water separability. Subsequently, the network adaptively refines the fused features with the aid of a hybrid attention model to generate refined features that can effectively distinguish between water bodies and non-water bodies. Finally, these refined features are input into the prediction head to generate the final water body extraction results. The proposed network integrates the ability of CNN to capture local detail features and the ability of transformer to model global contextual semantic associations in a large range. Therefore, it can more accurately identify water bodies in remote sensing images, and the extracted water body boundaries have high accuracy and continuity. Finally, water body extraction experiments on the public dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed network. Moreover, the results of comparative experiments also show that compared with existing networks or methods such as U-Net, FCN8s, DeepLabv3+, and MSFA-Net, the proposed network has certain advantages in terms of water body extraction accuracy.
ROOF3D: A REAL AND SYNTHETIC DATA COLLECTION FOR INDIVIDUAL BUILDING ROOF PLANE AND BUILDING SECTIONS DETECTION
Authors: Schuegraf P. , Fuentes Reyes M. , Xu Y. , Bittner K.
Published: December 2023

Abstract. Deep learning is a powerful tool to extract both individual building and roof plane polygons. But deep learning requires a large amount of labeled data. Hence, publicly available level of detail (LoD)-2 datasets are a natural choice to train fully convolutional neural networks (FCNs) models for both building section and roof plane instance segmentation. Since publicly available datasets are often automatically derived, e.g. based on laser scanning, they lack on annotation accuracy. To complement such a dataset, we introduce manually annotated and synthetically generated data. Manually annotated data is domain-specific and has a high annotation quality but is expensive to obtain. Synthetically generated data has high-quality annotations by definition, but lacks domain-specificity. Moreover, we not only detect individual building section instances, but also roof plane instances. We predict separations not only between individual buildings, but also by a class that describes the line which separates roof planes. The predicted building and roof plane instances are polygonized by a simple tree search algorithm. To achieve more regular polygons, we utilize the Douglas-Peucker polygon simplification algorithm. We describe our dataset in detail to allow comparability between successive methods. To facilitate future works in building and roof plane prediction, our Roof3D dataset is accessible at https://github.com/dlrPHS/GPUB.

Published: December 2023

В статье рассматривается применение нейросетей для улучшения процесса непрерывного пиролиза каменного угля, в частности, двуслойной полносвязной нейронной сети для управления параметрами процесса и повышения эффективности переработки угля. Обучение нейросети проводилось с помощью метода обратного распространения ошибки на базе данных экспериментов, включающих данные о температуре, давлении, пористости и выходе продуктов. Нейросеть определила оптимальные параметры процесса на основе данных о качестве и количестве продуктов реакции. Применение нейросети позволило повысить эффективность процесса переработки топлива, уменьшить количество выбросов вредных веществ и повысить качество получаемых продуктов. В статье также описывается архитектура нейронной сети и процесс ее обучения с использованием данных, получаемых в реальном времени. В результате экспериментов было установлено, что процесс пиролиза каменного угля представляет собой два конкурирующих процесса – деструкцию органической массы вещества и конденсацию углерода из газовой фазы на образовавшийся кокс. Результаты исследований показывают, что применение искусственного интеллекта в технологии переработки каменного угля имеет большой потенциал для улучшения процесса и создания более эффективных и экологически чистых методов переработки топлива.

The article discusses the application of neural networks to improve the process of continuous pyrolysis of coal, in particular, a two-layer fully connected neural network to control the process parameters and enhance the efficiency of coal processing. The neural network was trained using the backpropagation algorithm based on experimental data, including temperature, pressure, porosity, and product yield data. The neural network determined the optimal process parameters based on data on the quality and quantity of reaction products. The use of neural networks allowed to increase the efficiency of fuel processing, reduce the amount of harmful emissions, and improve the quality of the obtained products. The article also describes the architecture of the neural network and the process of its training using real-time data. As a result of experiments, it was found that the process of coal pyrolysis represents two competing processes – the decomposition of organic matter and the condensation of carbon from the gas phase onto the formed coke. The research results show that the application of artificial intelligence in coal processing technology has great potential for improving the process and creating more efficient and environmentally friendly fuel processing methods.

Maximizing Treatment Success in Lateral Epicondylitis: Assessing the Effectiveness of Ultrasonic Therapy as a Standalone Treatment and in Combination with Exercise
Authors: Kocheta Rachna , Saharan Ajeet Kumar , Saharan Manisha
Published: December 2023

Epicondylitis is characterised as epicondyle inflammation. When the wrist extensor muscles become inflamed or irritated at their origin on the lateral humeral epicondyle, this is known as tennis elbow. Activities that require wrist extension exacerbate pain. Based on inclusion criteria, 120 participants between the ages of 20 and 40 were selected for the research. Using the random sample procedure, the individuals were split into two groups of 60 each. Over the course of two weeks, Group A only underwent ultrasonography at a pace of two trials each week. For a period of two weeks, Group B got ultrasound treatment and performed stretching and strengthening exercises twice weekly. The findings indicate that the following therapy, Group B (Ultrasonic therapy in combination with exercise) outperformed group A (Ultrasonic therapy only) in terms of pain-free grip strength, function, and pain reduction. Despite the fact that both groups significantly improved. It can be claimed based on obtained evidence that Ultrasonic therapy in combination with exercise is a promising solution for lateral epicondylitis patients in terms of pain relief and improvement in grip strength & function.

Till Work Do us Part. An Investigation of Occupational Burnout, Familial Relationships, and Quality of Life
Authors: Tsirimokos Georgios , Louka Penelope , Pilafas Georgios
Published: December 2023

Background: Burnout is a work-oriented psychosomatic syndrome that gradually develops in response to chronic occupational stress, resulting in adverse health alterations. Recent evidence indicates that burnout can actually develop across all occupational fields, in every industrialized society, effectively making it a significant concern for employees and employers alike.
Objectives: To address the intrapersonal and interpersonal implications in terms of determinants and health-inclined outcomes, the current study aims to investigate the paradigms of occupational burnout, quality of life, and familial relationships, and explore the underlying considerations of these variables.
Methods: The current study combined two coordinated, yet distinct analytical designs. Firstly, the ANOVA examined the possible effects of occupational burnout and familial relationships on quality of life, and secondly, the multiple regression analysis explored the relationship and whether or not quality of life and familial relationships, can actually predict occupational burnout. Volunteers recruited opportunistically, and the sample size consisted of 201 Greek participants.
Results: The (a) analysis of variance (ANOVA), indicated that occupational burnout and familial relationships in isolation, significantly affect quality of life, to a considerable 19,1% margin of effect. Yet, the interaction effect of these factors produces non-significant results. Concerning the (b) correlational design (Multiple Regression), the investigation also corroborates significant results demonstrating that quality of life and familial relationships predict occupational burnout, by a 27,6% effect amplitude.
Interpretation: The current study considers burnout as a substantial factor that influences, and is influenced by, various aspects of one’s life; with often detrimental effects to the general well-being. Several implications concerning burnout determinants, health-inclined consequences, as well as probable amplifying, nullifying, and even synergistic effects among the triumvirate of burnout, familial relationships, and quality of life, are discussed.

Authors: Meregawa Putu Feryawan , Putra Pande Putu Agung Willa Kesawa
Published: December 2023

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disorder affecting the knee, affecting 22.9% of adults aged 40 and above. Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a successful treatment, but several studies reported post-operative stiffness, inability to squat or kneel, and other symptoms have a negative impact on the patient's prognosis. Recent guidelines advise that patients should be mobilized and gone exercise as soon as feasible after surgery because early function and mobilization are crucial for the success of a short stay program. Therefore, we want to present a case of patient with OA Kellgren and Lawrence grade IV and indicated for Total Knee Arthroplasty who was mobilized the same day after the surgery. A 63-year-old male patient with bilateral knee pain, causing stiffness and difficulty walking, sought medical attention. Despite pharmacological therapy, the patient's quality of life deteriorated. He diagnosed advanced osteoarthritis of the left knee, classified as Kellgren and Lawrence grade IV. Total Knee Arthroplasty was recommended to relieve pain and correct malalignment. We collaborated with medic rehabilitation division and anaesthesiologist to create an early rehabilitation program. After three months, the patient's functional outcome is satisfactory with good range of motion, quality of life, and a KSS of 80 and WOMAQ of 14. Patient with osteoarthritis who undergo total knee arthroplasty is advisable to follow early rehabilitation program since it improves the KSS and WOMAQ score following three months post-surgery.

OSMANLININ SON DÖNEMİNDE ADANA’DA ERMENİ NÜFUSU
Authors: GÜLEKOĞLU Ümmügülsüm
Published: December 2023

Çukurova, tarihi boyunca stratejik önemini koruyan bir coğrafya idi. Bu sebeple farklı uygarlıkların ve devletlerin ele geçirmek için mücadele verdiği bir bölge oldu. Adana’nın coğrafi konumu, stratejik önemi ve Ermenilerin bölgeye duydukları tarihi bağlar, Kilikya Ermeni Prensliği’nin bu bölgede varlık göstermiş olması Ermenilerin Adana’ya olan ilgisini arttırdı. Osmanlı Devleti’nin son döneminde Adana’ya bağlı Kozan (Sis) ve Saimbeyli (Haçin) Ermeni nüfusunun diğer yerlere nazaran daha kalabalık olduğu yerlerdi. Bunun yanı sıra Kozan ve Saimbeyli’de Ermeni nüfusunun diğer yerlere göre fazla olması Adana nüfusunun uzun yıllarca Türk olduğu gerçeğini değiştiremedi.

Adana ve çevresindeki Ermeni nüfusu, 1909 Adana olayları öncesinde planlı olarak arttırılmaya çalışıldı. Adana’daki Ermeni nüfusunun arttırılması amacıyla bölgeye çevre illerden yoğun Ermeni göçü yaşandı. Adana’ya göç eden bu nüfus görünürde mevsimlik işçi olarak buraya gelse de asıl amaç 1909 ihtilali için gerekli insan ihtiyacını karşılamaktı. Buna rağmen Adana’da çoğunluk sağlayamayan Ermeniler, Türk nüfusuna göre daima azınlık olarak varlıklarını sürdürdüler. Bu çalışmada Adana’nın nüfusu, yıllara göre artışı ve Adana’daki Türk ve Ermeni nüfusunun durumu ortaya koymak amacıyla hazırlandı.

Published: December 2023

The aim of this research is to find out about the law of giving dowry in the form of recitation of Al-Qur'an verses in marriage from the perspective of the Shafi'i school of thought and the implementation of giving dowry in the form of recitation of Al-Qur'an verses in marriage. The type of research in this thesis is library research, using a qualitative approach, a research procedure that produces descriptive data in the form of written words that must be observed and analyzed. The method used is to examine the legal review of the dowry ta'lim verses of the Koran and matters related to the implementation of the dowry. From the research it can be concluded that in the Syafi'i school of thought, giving a dowry in the form of recitation of Al-Quran verses is permissible (mubah), because the dowry is a dowry in the form of services that can be paid for so that it is legally valid to be used as a dowry in marriage. The implementation or practice of giving dowry in the form of ta'lim verses from the Koran is as follows: The headman asks the prospective bridegroom about the dowry that will be given. The bridegroom answered the dowry by reciting the verses of the Koran. Then the dowry was handed over in the form of recitation of Al-Quran verses witnessed by many people. After the dowry is handed over, the qobul agreement is then carried out. The qobul consent is completed and closed with a prayer.
KRITERIA WALIMATUL ‘URSY YANG WAJIB DAN TIDAK WAJIB DIDATANGI PERSPEKTIF HUKUM ISLAM
Authors: Maesaroh Siti , Soiman Soiman
Published: December 2023

People's lives in general, most of them when attending walimah events do not pay attention to the ethics or criteria contained in the walimah. So that they will freely come to attend the walimah to fulfill the invitation they have received from the inviter. They are also more likely to not care about what it will be like and how the implementation of the walimah they will attend will be like. This research is research that uses library research (library) research methods. Meanwhile, the approach used is a qualitative research approach. Based on the opinion of the Syafi'i Madzhab, the criteria for walimatul 'ursy that must be met are that the implementation of the walimah does not deviate from the applicable rules of Islamic law, such as the absence of evil, for example the provision of wine and singers (hired singers) which if carried out will result in riots or quarrels, something which makes people complacent.

During the Armenian genocide and after it, the distribution of orphans in orphanages and the provision of an Armenian environment for them became the most important problem. The report examines the activities of Vahan Cheraz and his cooperation with the Middle East Committee. Methods and materials: We have used comparative-historical research, survey, combination, inductive and deductive methods. The article is based on documents, information and materials about Cheraz and and analysis of materials available in the literature. The American aid committee for the Middle East was created in 1918 by the decision of the United States Congress. Vahan Cheraz worked at the American Relief Committee in Alexandropol, took care of and raised Armenian orphans, and also organized scout and sports youth clubs. In 1919 with the efforts of the Near East Relief, they begin to collect stray Armenian orphans from the streets, who after a medical examination were distributed either to the hospital or to orphanages. From these orphans, Cheraz formed his circles. In shelters, children ate three times a day, even when their numbers reached up to 25,000. This was the largest orphanage that ever existed in the history of mankind, which was called "Orphan City".
The significance of the senior pastor for change and growth
Authors: Jenssen Jan Inge , Mella Arne
Published: December 2023

This is a literature-based article on the importance of the pastor for change and growth in the local church. The article discusses five themes derived from a review of the research literature, namely the general leadership literature and the church leadership literature. The contribution of this article is its discussion of the church leadership literature on the role of the pastor, taking into account the general research on the role of a top leader. Six propositions on how the pastor contributes to change and growth in the church are derived:
1) The pastor, as the senior leader, is vital for team development, change, and growth.
2) The personality traits and gifts of the pastors are important.
3) To increase change and growth, the senior pastor must emphasize a change-promoting leadership role and style, moderated by the roles and styles of the leadership team members.
4) A change- and task-oriented style must be moderated and reinforced - probably more so than in other organizations - by a transformational and relational leadership style.
5) The pastor should build an influential top-leader team to create direction, strategy, and change. Diversity facilitates the necessary discussion within the team. A common goal and appealing vision contribute positively to cooperation within the team.
6) Leadership should not only be understood as what the leader or pastor does but also as a complex interaction with other actors and the context. Building trust and good relationships with subordinate leaders and coworkers is thus vital for change and growth.
Finally, a model for understanding the connection between the pastor, change, and growth is outlined.
Sosyal Kredi Sisteminin Eğitim ve Okul Yönetimine Yansımaları
Authors: TAŞDAN Murat
Published: December 2023

Çin’deki uygulamalarla gündeme gelen Sosyal Kredi Sistemi (SKS) dijital araçları ve yapay zekayı da kullanarak kişi ve kuruluşlara davranış ve eylemlerine göre puanlar veren kapsamlı bir değerlendirme/gözetim yöntemidir. SKS, toplumsal davranış, gözetim ve mahremiyet üzerindeki potansiyel etkileri nedeniyle çokça tartışılmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, SKS’nin anlamı, amacı ve işleyişi ortaya konmuş, sistemin üstünlük, sınırlılık ve riskleriyle eğitime ve eğitim yönetimine olası etkileri tartışılmıştır. Çalışma alanyazın taramasına dayalı derleme niteliğinde gerçekleştirilmiştir. SKS, okulda iyileştirme alanlarının belirlenmesinde, okul gelişimi için destek ve kaynaklar sağlanmasında, öğretmenlerin ve öğrencilerin daha objektif değerlendirilmesinde, eğitim yönetimindeki uygulamaların şeffaf, hesap verebilir olmasında, öğrencilerin ek desteğe veya kaynaklara ihtiyaç duyduğu alanların belirlemesinde ve okula kaynak tahsisinin iyileştirilmesinde eğitim ve okul yönetimine faydalar sağlayabilir. SKS kamu ve eğitim yönetiminde kullanımının önemli riskleri bulunmaktadır. SKS’nin eğitim ve okul yönetiminde kullanımı; öğrenci ve eğitim paydaşlarının toplanan verilerinin mahremiyetinin korunamaması ve etik dışı kullanılması, izlenme korkusuyla öğretmen ve öğrenci arasındaki açık iletişimin bozulması, belirli öğrenci gruplarının haksız yere cezalandırılması, mevcut güç yapıları ile hiyerarşileri daha da güçlendirmesi ve puanı düşük olan öğrencilerin damgalanması gibi riskleri barındırmaktadır.

Published: December 2023

O objetivo foi obter e caracterizar extratos aquosos da geoprópolis e avaliar sua estabilidade microbiológica. O processo de obtenção de extratos aquosos envolveu a maceração e imersão das amostras em água potável para a obtenção de extrato de 30 e 45% armazenadas a 30 e 60 dias. Para análises físico-química realizou-se umidade, cinzas, cera, compostos fenólicos, atividade antioxidante, solubilidade em acetato de chumbo, solubilidade em hidróxido de sódio, teor de cera e flavonóides. Para verificação da estabilidade microbiologica foram realizados: Bolores e leveduras, Coliformes Totais e Escherichia coli e Salmonella spp. Os resultados apresentaram-se em desconformidade para extrato seco, atividade antioxidante, acetato de chumbo e hidróxido de sódio. No entanto, algumas variações podem ser atribuídas a fatores como o armazenamento inadequado das amostras e as condições climáticas durante a produção da geoprópolis. Os resultados microbiológicos apresentaram presença para todos os microrganismos analisados. A presença de microorganismos pode ser influenciada pela composição da geoprópolis (terra e barro) e pelos hábitos das abelhas.
