On a Possibility of Copyright Protection of Objects Generated by Artificial Intelligence Systems
Authors: Gurko Anton
Published: October 2024

In recent years, many computer programs have appeared that operate on the AI basis, which are designed to generate various types of content and are distributed to a wide range of users. Therefore, more and more AI objects, similar in their characteristics to protected results of intellectual activity, are being distributed on the Internet. The fact that such objects are generated automatically by a computer program does not allow them to be subject to legal protection in accordance with Part 4 of the Russian Civil Code due to the lack of authors. At the same time, significant funds are being invested in the creation of new AI systems, which determines the need to protect the interests of persons involved in the AI creation and use. At the same time, there is no consensus in the scientific literature about the possibility or impossibility of protecting such objects, as well as the principles and contours of their legal protection. In this regard, the author conducted a study in order to formulate the basic principles of legal protection of objects generated by AI systems. To achieve this goal, the author has formulated the following tasks: to summarize existing approaches to solving the issue of legal protection of AI objects, to identify their shortcomings, to determine the presence or absence of elements of human creativity in working with artificial intelligence systems, to determine the optimal regime for the protection of AI objects. The study was conducted using general scientific methods of cognition, as well as methods of literal interpretation of legal norms, a predictive method and a method of legal modeling. The author comes to the conclusion that there are signs of creativity in human activities when working with AI, which makes it possible to recognize users of such systems as the authors of the objects they generate in accordance with the presumption of authorship enshrined in legislation.
On the Epistemological Foundations and Issues of the Modern Legal Understanding Doctrine
Authors: Gilmullin Ainur
Published: October 2024

This article is devoted to a comprehensive analysis and understanding of existing epistemological approaches to the study of legal understanding. The paper reveals modern doctrinal concepts in relation to the definition of the category “legal understanding”, its ontological, axiological and problematic aspects, provides and critically analyzes some methodological approaches to the organization of the content of the legal understanding doctrine. In particular, the author focuses on the theoretical characteristics of such ontological categories of legal understanding as the essence and definition of the concept of law, considered as its internal content and complete (idealized) form, their axiological problem and epistemological positioning in the structure of modern legal knowledge. From the standpoint of general scientific methods and requirements, the idea of the inadmissibility of ignoring the objective system- and structure-forming properties of these ontological categories, their universal (global) significance and the need to exclude their multivariance (multiplicity) is substantiated.It is concluded that the theory of legal understanding represents the fundamental direction of legal science for developing reliable, objective, and substantiated knowledge about the essence and understanding of law. The theory of legal understanding should be determined by specific (strict) requirements of scientific rationality, such as finding objective laws of change and development of law, establishing its essence, creating an idealized theoretical construct (concept definition) of law, and development of scientific foresight and forecasting of the future of law, etc.

Authors: Ruiz Aguirre Edith Inés , Martínez de la Cruz Nadia Livier , Galindo González Rosa María
Published: October 2024

Este artículo es resultado de un análisis documental que fundamenta las bases de la teoría de la actividad para el aprendizaje en las prácticas de colaboración durante la formación de estudiantes en ambientes virtuales de aprendizaje (AVA). Busca establecer teóricamente las formas de ¿cómo los sujetos construyen y estructuran la actividad en los sistemas de colaboración en los AVA? Y ¿Cómo se generan los actos de sentido, las tareas y los actores en la división del trabajo y en las prácticas de colaboración que desarrollan los estudiantes en los diferentes escenarios colaborativos que ofrecen los AVA?.  Se reconoce a la teoría de la actividad como explicativa de las relaciones intersubjetivas y los artefactos de mediación como elementos que introducen concepciones que son interiorizados en actos de sentido en los actores sujetos de aprendizaje, donde mediante acciones subjetivas y actividades colectivas explican desde la complejidad los procesos psicológicos derivados de la actividad humana. Y en particular, las prácticas de colaboración como sistema de actividad humana que desarrollan los sujetos, lo que permite establecer relaciones e interacciones con el objeto/objetivos, instrumentos, las reglas y la división de tareas, produciendo nuevas reformulaciones y significados que conducen a un aprendizaje colaborativo.

Published: October 2024

Se realizó una investigación de corte fenomenológico por aproximación a la realidad sobre la identificación de las emociones básicas y su relación con el bienestar psicológico en juventudes universitarias en la zona metropolitana de la Ciudad de México. Partiendo de la concepción e identificación del miedo, afecto, tristeza, enojo y alegría, se solicitó a un grupo de estudiantes de licenciatura la descripción de la emoción presente. Los hallazgos fueron reveladores, encontrándose que la concepción tradicional de las emociones, divididas como negativas o positivas ha cambiado en la generación actual, al menos en las personas participantes. Se resignifica el sentido de estas y ahora se comprenden como parte de un proceso que lleva a la transformación y al cambio. Se concluye en la importancia de seguir promoviendo espacios seguros para la expresión libre de la subjetividad.

Authors: Rekvava Meri P. , Dundua Tamar T. , Javashvili Lali V. , Gakhokidze Irakli V. , Meladze Nino T.
Published: October 2024

Empty Sella Syndrome (ESS) is a rare case of sella turcica malformation, resulting in pituitary gland decrease. It may reveal itself through neurological symptoms, endocrine disorders, visual disturbances or incidental findings during imaging. The urgency of this problem has increased with the widespread use in the diagnosis of the non-invasive method of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). It can be discovered as part of the investigation of the pituitary disorders, or as an incidental finding when imaging the brain. Practice shows that such patients rarely come with typical complaints thus an extended review of this case is needed to prompt suspicion and aid in the diagnosis of ESS. Few cases of empty sella associated with isolated thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) deficiency were published. We report a case of a 46 year-old woman with complaints: edema, dizziness, low blood pressure, hair loss, dry skin. Examinations were performed: ultrasound of the thyroid gland, TSH, FT4 (free thyroxine), FT3 (free triiodothyronine), anti TPO (Antibodies to thyroid peroxidase). Conclusion: patients with TSH, FT4, and FT3 deficiency, should undergo examinations to exclude empty sella as one of the reason of central hypothyroidism. According to the above mentioned the recommendation is to examine all the tropic hormones of the pituitary gland after diagnosing empty sella. Diagnosing central hypothyroidism associated with empty sella helps improving the knowledge and points to different clinical manifestation of empty sella syndrome.

Published: October 2024

The study investigated the effect of capital structure on the performance of selected Development Finance Institutions (DFIs) in Nigeria. The study specifically examined the effect of Total Debt to Total Assets (TDTA) on performance of selected of development finance institutions in Nigeria; and ascertained the effect of Total Debt to Total Equity (TDTE) on performance of selected development finance institutions in Nigeria. The study adopted an ex-post facto research design and data were collected from published annual financial records of the selected DFIs on both TDTA and TDTE, the independent variables and Return on Assets (ROA), the dependent variable, for a period of ten (10) years (2013-2022). The population of the study composed of seven (7) national DFIs namely: Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Bank of Agriculture (BOA), Bank of Industry (BOI), Development Bank of Nigeria (DBN), Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria (FMBN), Nigeria-Export-Import Bank (NEXIM) and the Infrastructure Bank Plc (IBN). The study sampled four (4) national DFIs using a purposive sampling technique, including CBN, BOI, FMBN and NEXIM. Computation of the relevant ratios were done for the independent variables (TDTA and TDTE); and the dependent variable (ROA). Data analysis was done using multiple regression and the econometric technique of Dynamic Ordinary Least Squares (DOLS) with the aid of E-Views Version 13.  The study found that TDTA has a negative but significant effect on ROA, indicating that a percentage change in TDTA leads to lower ROA by 0.071551 and TDTE has a positive effect of TDTE on ROA, showing that a percentage change in TDTE will significantly increase ROA by 0.001696. The study concluded that the investigated DFIs have low equity capital which seems to hinder their ability to attract large loans for operations. The study recommended amongst others that DFIs should maintain a balanced total debt to total assets (TDTA) and ensure the regular monitoring of the debt-to-asset ratio to ensure it remains within a healthy range which will help maintain a balance between leveraging and risk.

Published: October 2024

Introduction: Anaphylactic shock is a severe allergic reaction that can occur rapidly and be life-threatening. Understanding it is crucial for medical care, especially in settings where medications are administered or procedures are performed that can trigger allergic reactions.Objective: To review the etiological, pathophysiological, clinical, and therapeutic features of anaphylactic shock.Development: The most common causes of anaphylactic shock include allergies to food, insect stings, medications, and latex. Pathophysiologically, it is characterized by massive release of inflammatory mediators such as histamine, leading to vasodilation, increased vascular permeability, and bronchoconstriction. Clinically, it presents with symptoms such as urticaria, edema, respiratory distress, and hypotension. Diagnosis is based on clinical history and symptom presentation. Immediate treatment includes the administration of adrenaline, which acts as a vasoconstrictor and bronchodilator, and may be followed by antihistamines and corticosteroids.Conclusions: Anaphylactic shock is a medical emergency that requires immediate recognition and treatment. Education and preparation of medical personnel are essential to ensure an appropriate response to this condition. Early identification of triggers can prevent future episodes and improve patient outcomes.

Published: October 2024

Within conducted research the results of microbiological investigations on specific metabolic (phenotypic) groups of bacteria that play crucial roles in the biogeochemical cycling of iron, manganese, nitrogen, sulfur, and carbon are presented. These bacteria are also involved in the development of biocorrosion and biofouling processes, with some posing risks to public health. Utilizing results from applied biological activity reaction tests (BART tests), processed using specialized software, potential risks for the development of microbiologically mediated corrosion, biofouling, and health risks were calculated for seven wells within two oxic sites in the Danube alluvium – Vinci and Veliko Gradište, Serbia. Moderate to high corrosion risk was determined for all seven wells at both sites (CR=5.4). Microbiological fouling risk was very high in three out of the seven investigated wells (PR=8.10). Among the seven sites studied, one site stood out based on the calculated high value of health risk coefficient (HR=8.10). The research results provide new insights into the microbiological role in aging wells in oxic groundwater of the Danube alluvium. It is demonstrated that the physicochemical composition and chemical species such as minerals, organic matter, and the specific composition of microbial communities in the studied groundwater have the potential to stimulate biocorrosion and the formation of deposits and biofilms within well structures. In addition to biochemical analyses, hydrogeological characteristics of the analyzed area are presented to define the geological stratigraphy, for which specific microbiological transformations would be expected based on the obtained results.

This study simultaneously studied the twin problem of hydrate and corrosion that occurs in natural gas pipelines, establishing their interdependence using a simulation approach. CO2 corrosion was simulated using the NORSOK M-506 standard model in Matlab. Major factors considered are the relationship between corrosion rate and temperature, corrosion rate and PH, corrosion-temperature relationship for varying CO2 mole percent, and PH values. The result from this study established that both type I and type II hydrates could form at the operating conditions of 5OC and 60 bar. The obtained result also shows that the rate of corrosion decreases and increases with an increase in PH values and temperature respectively to a certain temperature of approximately 78 OC, then a dip in the rate of corrosion. The result for the corrosion-temperature relationship for varying PH values and CO2 mole percent shows a decrease in corrosion rate with an increase in PH and an increase with the increase in CO2 mole percent. Furthermore, the obtained results highlight a rise as high as 5.7 mm/year at a 3 mole percent CO2. This value and trend portray a bad omen for the affected pipeline. This study recommends that natural gas to be transported by pipeline should be sweetened and processed to remove H2S, CO2, and mercaptans if present.

Published: October 2024

The IPCC AR5 WGⅠhighlighted four priority areas for disaster risk reduction, with the first being the understanding of disaster risk. Meanwhile, the Earth is increasingly responding to climate change through natural disasters. This study proposes a Natural Disaster Impact Evaluate Formula （NDIEF）, focusing on six continents and utilizing data from 12 types of natural disasters recorded in the CRED EM-DAT database. The analysis is divided into two periods, before and after 2015, to evaluate changes over time. The findings reveal three key trends: First, the frequency of natural disasters continues to rise. Second, although the number of fatalities has significantly decreased, both exposure levels and economic losses have surged. Lastly, unlike the 2011 Global Assessment Report （GAR）, this study finds that the impact of natural disasters is not only severe in Oceania and island nations but is also increasingly affecting North America, particularly in terms of economic damage. In conclusion, enhancing our understanding of the social and economic impacts of natural disasters and raising awareness of disaster prevention can play a crucial role in effectively mitigating disaster risks.
