Oil and Gas Production Forecasting Using Decision Trees, Random Forst, and XGBoost
Authors: A. Al shabaan Mays , N. Nemer Zainab
Published: April 2024

Oil and gas production forecasting has always been a hot topic in the petroleum industry. Production forecasting in this sector aims to estimate future production rates, facilitating operational planning, production optimization, and resource allocation for companies. Scientists have traditionally attempted to forecast oil and gas production using methods such as Numerical Reservoir Simulation (NRS) and Decline Curve Analysis (DCA). However, these methods present challenges including time-consuming processes lasting hours or even days, uncertain accuracy, reliance on accurate static models, and uncertainty in dynamic model parameters. In this research, aim to address these limitations by leveraging machine learning models for production forecasting. These models enable faster and more precise decision-making by accurately predicting future outcomes based on historical data. Our study employs three models: Decision Trees (DTR), Random Forest (RFR), and XGBoost. In this reserch utilize the Python programming language and a dataset from wells in New York State, USA. Experimental results demonstrate that the RFR model achieves the highest accuracy (99%) for oil and gas production compared to the XGBoost and DTR models.
Optimal Drone Nodes Deployment to Maximize Coverage and Energy in WSNs Using Genetic Algorithms
Authors: Ayad Khudhair Hayder
Published: April 2024

Increasing coverage and reducing the energy consumed in wireless sensor networks is an interesting field for researchers since the discovery of wireless sensor networks and it is an open problem. Activating the lowest connectivity range for each node individually depending on its remaining power and the place it covers, while maximizing coverage by placing it in the optimal place will reduce the energy consumed and increase the lifetime of wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we find an approach to increase coverage by optimizing correlation and residual energy using genetic algorithms by placing each node in the optimal position to maximize coverage, assuming that each node has a different energy from the other nodes. We will use drones to carry and move sensors to optimal position. The aim of the proposed work is to cover the largest area of a given region by using the least range of connection and increasing the Lifetime. We ran a succession of simulations and found the proposed model better than the strategies we found in literature.
Mobile based Malware Detection using Artificial Intelligence Techniques a review
Authors: Faez mahdi Mawj , Saadoon Jasim Sarah
Published: April 2024

Malware attacks on mobile devices are becoming more common and more complicated every year. Malware writers see the open-source Android app as their main target because so many people use it. Artificial intelligence is used by most of the literature's mobile malware detection methods to find ransomware. Our research, on the other hand, makes it clear that most of the earlier studies used different metrics and models, as well as different datasets and classification features that came from static, dynamic, or hybrid analysis strategies. This makes comparing the different suggested detection methods more difficult and may also make the results less certain. The goal of this work is to solve the problem of AI-powered malware detection by sorting current methods and approaches into three groups: the type of dataset, the type of detection method used (machine learning models, deep learning models, and Behavioral Analysis model), and how well the method works. In this way, we suggest a convergent plan that can be used as a basis for future methods of finding malware on Android and as a solid standard for artificial intelligence work in this area.

Paediatric Bronchiectasis in a Resource-Constrained Centre: A Case Series
Authors: Kuti BP , Jallow M , Jobarteh ML
Published: March 2024

Bronchiectasis denotes fixed and often irreversible dilatation of the bronchial wall caused by persistent inflammation and infection. Children with bronchiectasis in developing countries suffer recurrent hospitalisation and poor quality of life and usually succumb to the condition. These children are poorly recognised, misdiagnosed, and under-reported.
We report five cases of computerised tomography-diagnosed paediatric bronchiectasis managed at the Edward Francis Small Teaching Hospital (EFSTH), Banjul, The Gambia. The ages of the children at presentation ranged from 3 to 14 years, and they all had recurrent chest infections. Four out of the five cases had Pulmonary Tuberculosis, among whom two cases had HIV/TB co-infections, and the only non-TB, non-HIV case had features of Down syndrome with congenital heart lesions. All the cases had growth impairment; digital clubbing was observed in four, and low peripheral oxygen saturation in room air in three of the five children. These cases are reported to increase the index of suspicion among clinicians working in resource-limited settings to consider the diagnosis of bronchiectasis in children with recurrent chest infections. Early diagnosis and prompt management, including appropriate follow-up care, will improve the quality of life of these children and ensure better management outcomes.
The deficiency of democratic principles in the evolution of the inflexible structure of albanian society during the 1990s uprisings: An examination through the lens of Rancière
Authors: Elona Mehmeti
Published: March 2024

This paper presents an exploration of democracy, a recurrent theme in political discourse, particularly amid socio-economic shifts in Europe and political transitions in Albania. Although the complexities of this subject, the paper was conceived, acknowledging the challenge of navigating subjective interpretations. The paper does not aim to assert absolute truths but rather offers an alternative perspective on the 1990s events in Albania. The thesis posits that the political movement of that era lacked democratic essence and was politically manipulated. Drawing heavily from Jacques Rancière's conceptual framework of democracy, the paper argues that the movements of the 1990s did not align with Rancière's notion of a "field of battle", but rather transpired at the negotiation table. Moreover, the actors lacked consciousness of their roles, did not pursue socio-political equality, and remained oblivious to institutional change. Ultimately, the paper suggests that this lack of awareness allowed the oligarchy to exploit the movement to perpetuate power without altering its fundamental composition.

Background: Malaria poses a significant public health challenge in sub-Saharan Africa, particularly among pregnant women, where it contributes to a high burden of infection and mortality. This study aimed to investigate the impact of malaria on haematological and biochemical parameters among pregnant women attending the Antenatal Clinic at General Hospital Sabo Kaduna State, North-Western Nigeria. Methodology: A total of 70 pregnant women participated in the study, with subjects aged between 15 and 40 years. A total of 70 pregnant women participated in the study, 50 of which were malaria positive and 20 of which were malaria negative. Participants were recruited from Antenatal Clinic of General Hospital Sabo, Kaduna State. Socio-demographic characteristic and blood samples were collected and examine for malaria parasite, some haematological parameters (HCT, HGB, WBC, RBC and platelet count) were measured using the sysmex auto-haematology analyzer. Data generated was analyzed using SPSS 22.0 statistical package. Results: Findings revealed that younger women, particularly those aged 21-25 years, constituted a significant proportion of the subjects, consistent with previous reports. Haematological analysis demonstrated a significant decrease in haematocrit (HCT), haemoglobin (HGB), red blood cell count (RBC), and platelet count among malaria parasitized pregnant women compared to controls (p<0.05). However, white blood cell (WBC) count remained within the normal reference range for both groups. Conclusion: These findings corroborate previous research indicating that malaria infection leads to alterations in haematological parameters, primarily attributed to mechanical destruction of parasitized red blood cells and splenic clearance. Furthermore, there should be an enhanced efforts to implement malaria prevention and control strategies, promote sanitation practices to reduce mosquito breeding sites, and prioritize the inclusion of malaria parasite investigation as a routine test in antenatal care for pregnant women.

Published: March 2024

Background: This study aims to evaluate the effects of aerobic exercise on ankylosing spondylitis (AS) patients' clinical outcomes when combined with anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) treatments. Methods: Fifty patients diagnosed with AS participate in the study, with 25 on anti-TNF treatment and 25 off anti-TNF treatment. Patients' age, education, body mass index, smoking habits, symptom duration, date of diagnosis, medication use, comorbidities, and surgical history were assessed. Patients receive instructions to walk for 30 minutes, three times per week for twelve weeks and receive evaluation at weeks 0, 6, and 12. Disease activity is evaluated using Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), while sleep quality is assessed by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). The Ankylosing Spondylitis Life Quality (ASQoL) is used to measure the quality of life and physical activity is measured by the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). Results: During week 6, VAS, BASDAI, PSQI, and IPAQ scores were significantly lower in both groups, one taking anti-TNF and the other anti-TNF-free, in comparison to baseline and week 12 scores. After undergoing six weeks of aerobic exercise treatment, those taking anti-TNF displayed greater improvements in ASQoL scores in contrast to those who were not taking anti-TNF. Conclusion: Aerobic exercise is an effective intervention for enhancing disease activity, quality of life, sleep quality, and physical activity in patients with AS. Additionally, anti-TNF treatment appears to amplify the clinical benefits associated with exercise and facilitate patients' physical activity.

The increase in the elderly population is directly proportional to the increase in life expectancy. According to estimates from the World Health Organization (WHO), the global elderly population is projected to increase from 703 million in 2019 to 1.5 billion in 2050. In Indonesia, in 2020, the elderly population was 26.82 million (9.92%), and it is estimated to reach 20% by 2045. Tegaldlimo Sub-district is one of the sub-districts in Banyuwangi regency that shows a similar phenomenon of increasing elderly population. However, the knowledge, skills, and basic examinations to support the health conditions of the elderly in this sub-district still need improvement. On the other hand, this sub-district has human resources, namely PKK cadres, health services, elderly integrated health posts (posyandu lansia), and sports facilities that can be optimized to enhance knowledge and skills. Therefore, community service activities are needed to address the issues in the Tegaldlimo sub-district. This acceleration needs early readiness from all elements to ensure the quality of life for the elderly is maintained and to prevent excessive health financing for addressing elderly-related morbidities. The community service activities to be carried out in the Tegaldlimo sub-district consist of a series of empowerment and community participation activities involving PKK cadres and the elderly. Involving PKK cadres aims to make the program sustainable. Therefore, it is expected that this community service will increase knowledge and skills in the maintenance of elderly health, especially regarding bones and muscles.

Prospects of using unmanned aerial vehicles for detecting fossil mammoth ivory fields in the Arctic
Authors: Smirnov A. N. , Kalinovskii K. K. , Glinskaya N. V. , Dergacheva I. S. , Kalinovskaia M. A. , Petrov V. V.
Published: March 2024

In recent decades, fossil ivory, the tusks of the Siberian mammoth of the late type (Mammuthus primigenius Blumenbach, 1799), has been in great demand on the world market of gemstone raw materials. Fossil ivory is a valuable highly liquid natural raw material of biogenic origin. With its decorative and technological characteristics, it is a fossil analogue of the tusks of the present-day African and Asian elephant (the populations of which are protected by UNESCO), used for the production of carved articles of great aesthetic value. Industrial clusters of mammoth tusks are concentrated in just a few Arctic regions of Russia: the only region today which holds confirmed industrial potential of fossil mammoth ivory (actually recoverable resources) is Northern Yakutia. This is due to the limited number of territories whose paleogeographic and landscape-ecological conditions were favorable for mammoths in the Late Pleistocene, as well as to the taphonomic conditions conducive to the long-term preservation of bone remains in permafrost conditions. Placer accumulations of mammoth tusks are formed as a result of denudation of cryogenic bone reservoirs containing up to 90% ice; the main destructive factors are various types of thermal erosion, which contributes to the formation of new accumulations. Today, just as centuries ago, the search for fossil ivory, is carried out mainly by walking over large areas in remote areas of the Russian Arctic. The search objects are fully or partially exposed fossil ivory lying on the surface (in the surface layer) of present-day sedimentary formations in various landscape-geomorphological and geobotanical settings. The current period of studying and exploiting the natural resources in Russia is characterized by the active use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) with video cameras, which significantly reduces the complexity of research in various fields of their application. We have carried out experimental and methodological work for the visual recognition of exposed mammoth tusks in the natural lansetting using a copter-type UAV equipped with video cameras and appropriate computer software. The interval of optimal heights is determined, as well as the possible width of the observation band during the search. The use of UAVs is expected to significantly increase the effectiveness of search through operational visual control of large areas of bone-bearing territories, fixation and coordinate binding of detected mammoth tusks for subsequent targeted and operational collection.

Published: March 2024

The aim of the research was to study the relationship between the intensity of iceberg formation in the Russian Arctic including the number of icebergs calving annually from outlet glaciers and surface air temperature anomalies. The research was carried out on the basis of satellite monitoring using non-commercial, freely distributed satellite information from optical-electronic satellites Landsat-8 (spatial resolution 15 m) and Sentinel-2 (spatial resolution 10 m) and the radar satellite Sentinel-1 (pixel size 20×40 m). To achieve the aim, an iceberg detection technique was used based on statistical criteria for searching for gradient zones in the analysis of two-dimensional fields of satellite images. Based on the analysis of satellite data of the visible spectral range of the Landsat-8 and Sentinel-2 satellites and Sentinel-1 radar data the maximum spatial dimensions of icebergs formed by the outlet glaciers of Severnaya Zemlya, Franz Josef Land (ZFI) and Novaya Zemlya in 2012–2022 were estimated. Satellite monitoring of the Severnaya Zemlya region was carried out using visible range images in the spring season (March–May), characterized by the best observation conditions in terms of cloudiness, natural light, and monitoring of icebergs most of which are located in fast ice at this time. Monitoring of the ZFI area was carried out using radar data in the period August-September, corresponding to the minimal ice cover conditions. Satellite monitoring of the Novaya Zemlya region was carried out using visible images in the summer season. In total, about 500 satellite images were analyzed. The discusses the dependence of the intensity of the iceberg formation process on the ice shelf and outlet glaciers with a floating edge on the surface air temperature and the maximum thickness of fast ice. It is shown that the abnormally warm weather that set in 2020 during the period of ice melting led to a sharp intensification of the process of glacier melting in the Russian Arctic and the formation of almost 8,000 icebergs near Severnaya Zemlya, more than 6,600 icebergs near ZFI and over 1,000 icebergs near the western coast of Novaya Zemlya. For all the areas of the Russian Arctic studied in the period 2012–2022 an increase was noted in the maximum observed sizes of icebergs calving from glaciers. The largest iceberg, whose length was 5 km, broke off in 2020 from the Matusevich ice shelf.

The article considers the development of the 1957 Sovnarkhoz reform. The authors identified the main stages of work on it and defined the role of the highest authorities. Although the idea of granting economic independence to the regions was discussed by the USSR leadership even before the outbreak of the war, the main approaches to reform began to be developed after March 1953. The initiator of the reform was G. M. Malenkov. In August 1953, a meeting was held at which proposals were discussed on the possibility of allowing local leaders to freely dispose of investments in industry. However, the stabilization of the economy as a whole led to the fact that the government refused to expand the economic independence of the regions. The issue reappeared on the political agenda of the highest authorities only after Malenkov’s resignation. The development of the reform was carried out in parallel in the Central Committee of the CPSU and the Council of Ministers of the USSR. The first version of the reforms was presented by the government of N. A. Bulganin in the spring of 1956. It was a moderate project, which assumed a gradual increase in the economic independence of the regions. In contrast to the Bulganin project, N. S. Khrushchev hastily proposed a radical option, which provided for the transfer of control of the entire regional industry to new bodies — the sovnarkhozes. This approach was opposed by representatives of the state apparatus, primarily All-Union and Union-Republican ministers. They were supported by the oldest member of the Presidium of the Central Committee, V. M. Molotov. However, N. S. Khrushchev’s initiative was supported by local authorities, which allowed launching the reform process. As the authors show, treating reform as an instrument of political struggle, and not as a goal of reforming the Soviet economy, determined in the future permanent changes in the sovnarkhozes system.

Fixation in the cultural layer of the archaeological site of all ceramic types of the Trans-Ural region: early Neolithic (the last third of the 7th — the turn of the 6th–5th millennium BC) the Koshkino and the Koksharovsko-Yur’inskaya (Kozlovo) cultures, Late Neolithic (the turn of the 6th–5th millennium BC — the middle of the 5th millennium BC) of the Poludenskaya and the Basyanovskaya (local variant of the Boborykino) cultures, allows setting the tasks of the relationship of these complexes from the point of view of solving not only the “classical” problems of archaeology: typology, stratigraphy, absolute and relative chronology, etc. but also some socio-cultural interpretations. On the materials of such a specific source as an archaeological one, the solution of such problems is available in the analysis of only some archaeological sites. The authors of the article state, firstly, the dual nature of the social organization of primitive collectives within the heterogeneous community that created this unique archaeological complex, especially manifested in the early Neolithic stage in the face of the Koshkino and the Koksharovsko-Yur’inskaya population groups, whose activities were sealed by both joint production and cult practices and, most likely, the commonality of family and marriage relations, which was based on the principle of exogamy. Secondly, the authors assume for the Koksharovsky Kholm sanctuary the status of a cult place not only of a local district, but as an interregional center of a significant sociocultural space. Thirdly, one can observe the preservation in the Late Neolithic time of the microlithic flint processing technique, which in the Basyanovo community could have performed not only a production, but also a cult function. Fourthly, at the origins of the functioning of the “Koksharovsky Kholm — Yur’inskoe Settlement” archeological site was, most likely, the Koshkino group of population.
HUSBANDRY AND ECONOMY AS A FIELD OF STUDY IN OB-UGRIAN HISTORIOGRAPHY
Authors:   Tula State Lev Tolstoy Pedagogical University, Martynova Elena P.
Published: March 2024

The author deals with the history of the Ob Ugrian husbandry and economy and aims at showing what phenomena of the Ob Ugrians’ economic life have attracted scholarly attention and how research approaches have changed. The works of ethnologists and historians are used as sources. Historiography is considered not so much as an account of achievements and discoveries of different authors, but more as ideas, research approaches that appear in a certain historical period. In the 18th–19th centuries, authors were concerned with the uniqueness of the economic activities of the Ostyaks and Voguls. They regarded fishing, hunting and reindeer herding as modes of livelihood strikingly different from those habitual to educated observers. In the middle 19th century, ethnographers paid attention to economic relations between the indigenous and Russian population of the Northern Ob Region and complied descriptions of trade at fairs and credit-trade relations. The turn of the 19th–20th centuries was the period of boom of ethnographic local lore, when empirical materials on the economy were supplemented with data on the Ugrian local groups, which were characterized by the accuracy of information and its attachment to a specific territory. In the 1920s, ethnographers were no longer attracted by the exoticism and uniqueness of northern peoples’ ways of economic activity. They sought to obtain the most accurate data on the husbandry and economy in order, relying on them, to overcome the “backwardness” of the aboriginal economy and raise it to the socialist level. In the 1960–1990s, Ugric scholars studied the traditional branches of the husbandry from the perspective of historical retrospect. During these years a lot of new data were introduced into the scientific turnover, the problems of formation and evolution of separate branches and economic complexes in different groups of the Khanty and Mansi were studied. The contemporary stage of the Ob Ugrian husbandry and economy research is characterized by special attention to the development of traditional industries under conditions of intensive industrial development and market relations.
REGIONALIZATION, ADAPTATION AND INTEGRATION OF POST-REFORM JUSTICE ON THE RUSSIAN EMPIRE’S BORDERLANDS

The extent to which the 1864 judicial reforms were successful is a topic of ongoing debate, particularly in relation to the Empire’s periphery. Some scholars argue that the reforms were a failure, leading to the dismantling of established local judicial systems, inconsistency with the multicultural context, and alienation of the population from the new justice system. However, there are also arguments in favor of the reforms, focusing on the adaptation of the new justice system to local communities and the stabilization of judicial personnel in the regions. The article explores the processes of regionalization and integration of the new imperial judicial and legal institutions, specifically in the western borderlands and Transcaucasia. The analysis of sources reveals the regional stabilization of the justices of the peace courts personnel, with an increasing number of local natives becoming judges. The study investigates the role of honorary judges in incorporating traditional elites and ensuring representation of ethnic and religious groups. The article also examines the involvement of various intermediaries in the processes of mutual accommodation between the new justice system and local communities. The interaction between post-reform courts and local estate, ethnic and confessional judicial institutions is discussed. The conclusion assesses the dynamics of judicial activity of the population of the peripheries of the empire. It is pointed out that the interaction between local communities and post-reform imperial justice grew significantly.
COAL BASINS OF THE USSR IN THE SYSTEM OF INTERREGIONAL FREIGHT TRAFFIC, 1940–1953

The article introduces into scientific circulation the materials of the USSR transport statistics on the dynamics of coal cargoes transportation by rail in the late 1940s — early 1950s. On the basis of the identified sources, it establishes the importance and place in the system of interregional freight traffic for the five largest coal basins of the Soviet Union: Donetsk, Near Moscow, Karaganda, Kuznetsk and Pechora. The evolution of transportation is considered in the context of political and economic factors of both external and internal nature. In particular, the case of indirect economic damage caused to the eastern regions of the USSR by the Great Patriotic War is shown on the example of transport links between the Urals and Siberia. In the context of interregional freight transportation, an episode of territorial contradictions of the CPSU Sverdlovsk and Leningrad regional committees regarding the development of coal deposits in the Polar Urals is considered. It is noted that the economic effect of the historical inertia of these events can be traced up to the present time, and is expressed both in the imbalance of the latitudinal and meridional directions of transport routes, and the uneven congestion of the railway network of modern Russia. The published material demonstrates the prospects of using the USSR transport statistics for the implementation of comprehensive historical and economic zoning of the Soviet Union, subject to similar studies in relation to other chronological periods and other categories of cargo in the future. The article is supplemented with cartographic materials illustrating the considered changes in the transportation of coal cargoes across the territory of the USSR graphically.
