No Laughing Matter: Translating the Ludic Imagination in Lope de Vega
Authors: Johnston David
Published: April 2024

Lope’s theater is famously playful, featuring a whole series of ludic devices that, dramatically at least, tend to privilege subjectivity and imagination over hard-headed adherence to social norms and the body of customs. This article, remembering Don Larson’s playful nature and his own deep-rooted interest in processes of extension and transformation, examines the translational implications of Lope’s ludic imagination.
Hz. İbrahim (as) ve Nemrud Kıssası Bağlamında Tevhidin Hukuk ve İktisat ile İlişkisi
Authors: Bilik Abdurrahim
Published: April 2024

İslam dininin temel çağırısı hiç şüphe yok ki tevhid inancıdır ve bu inancın Müslümanların hayatının her aşamasında kendisini göstermesi beklenmektedir. Tevhid inancının hayatın farklı boyutlarıyla ne şekilde bir etkileşim içerisinde olacağı, öncelikli olarak Kur’ân-ı Kerîm’in açık ifadeleri ile Peygamber Efendimizin (sav) açıklama ve uygulamalarından öğrenilmektedir. Kur’ân-ı Kerîm’de yer alan eski ümmetlerin hikâyeleri, tevhid inancının hayatın farklı alanlarıyla ne şekilde bir etkileşim içerisinde olduğuna dair Müslümanlar için bilgiler sunmakta ve insanlık tarihinin bu kadim tecrübeleri üzerinden Müslümanların ders çıkarmaları ve aynı hatalara düşmemeleri istenilmektedir. Bu bakımdan tevhid inancının diğer birçok alanla olduğu gibi iktisat ve hukuk alanlarıyla da ilgisi ve etkileşimi bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışmada klasik tefsirlerde yer alan ilgili rivayetlerden hareketle Hz. İbrahim (as) ile Nemrud kıssası özelinde bu ilgi ve etkileşime odaklanılmaktadır. Makalenin temel iddiası; tevhid inancının hukuk ve iktisat alanlarındaki temel ilkeleri belirlemiş olduğu ve bu alanlarda yapılan ve devam ettirilen bazı hataların zamanla tevhid inancını olumsuz etkilediği şeklindedir.

LA EPISTULA AD MELLITUM DE GREGORIO MAGNO Y LA REINVENCIÓN DE LO SAGRADO: TEXTO Y CONTEXTO
Authors: Carrera Airola Leonardo
Published: April 2024

El presente artículo explora el trasfondo de la epístola a Melito, develando que no solo se trata de un ejercicio de metódica y moderada acción pastoral encaminada a consolidar la conversión del pueblo anglosajón, sino que además refleja el complejo proceso mental por el que su autor ha debido pasar tras buscar sintetizar armónicamente, en un único e indisoluble esquema de misión, factores religiosos, etnológicos y psicológicos. Gregorio tenía conciencia que en toda sociedad persisten rasgos culturales provenientes de antiguas tradiciones que le otorgan una fuerza cohesionante, y por eso quiso implementar una evangelización no coercitiva, que fuera capaz de suprimir la idolatría al tiempo que se valiera de ella para alcanzar la Gracia, acortando así el espacio psicológico que separaba a los misioneros de los misionados. Halló la respuesta en la reinvención de lo sagrado, a través de un estilo que se caracterizó tanto por la innovación como por el recurso a la tradición.

Authors: Salazar Serna Karla
Published: April 2024

La desaparición de personas en México, desde hace poco más de quince años, ha crecido de forma preocupante, actualmente existe un registro de más de 115 mil personas desaparecidas. Este fenómeno genera consecuencias graves para familiares de quienes han desaparecido, ya que genera una desarticulación psíquica a causa de la pérdida ambigua y la imposibilidad de vivir un proceso de duelo. En este artículo se presenta un análisis que surge del trabajo de investigación cualitativa,[1] desarrollada durante los años 2019-2020, con familiares de personas desaparecidas en los estados de Guerrero y Veracruz, la cual tuvo como objeto profundizar en las alternativas de resiliencia en personas, grupos y colectivos durante las búsquedas de quienes han desaparecido bajo la constante vulnerabilidad de quienes viven en estos territorios. Los hallazgos que aquí se discuten permiten analizar los diversos desafíos para desarrollar un Trabajo Social pertinente y sustentado en las necesidades orientadas a la construcción de alternativas de resiliencia frente al fenómeno de desaparición, en territorios donde la impunidad y las violaciones graves a los derechos humanos es una constante; en esta dirección, se presenta un análisis sustentado teóricamente en los procesos de resiliencia ante la constante vulnerabilidad, así como en el ejercicio pendiente del Trabajo Social. Se exponen diversas situaciones que las familias de personas desaparecidas enfrentan en territorios de violencia e impunidad y las bases que fundamentan la oportunidad de desarrollar un Trabajo Social orientado a potenciar procesos de resiliencia en casos de desaparición forzada.
La dimensión de lo justo en las políticas de reparación por violaciones de derechos humanos. Un análisis a propósito del caso chileno
Authors: Cubillos Vega Carla
Published: April 2024

La noción normativa o clásica de Justicia Transicional ha venido siendo cuestionada en defensa de una noción de justicia transformativa, en la cual radica un valioso potencial reparador. El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar la dimensión de “lo justo” que subyace en la política de reparación chilena por violaciones de derechos humanos, derivada de los Informes de las Comisiones de Verdad y materializada en una serie de medidas simbólicas y materiales orientadas a abordar las secuelas de la violencia política en las personas supervivientes y sus familias. A través de la revisión documental y bibliográfica se delimita qué se entiende por justicia en el campo de la Justicia Transicional y qué se entiende por justicia, concretamente, en torno a las políticas de reparación. Se analiza el caso de la política reparatoria chilena como respuesta a los crímenes de lesa humanidad cometidos durante la dictadura cívico-militar de 1973-1990. Se defiende la necesidad de avanzar hacia un modelo no normativo de justicia que, además de satisfacer la demanda de justicia retributiva de una parte importante de las víctimas directas, también repare a las víctimas indirectas y actúe como medida de prevención, contribuyendo a reducir la segregación, las inequidades y la polarización social; en suma, una vía para avanzar hacia mayores cuotas de democracia, justicia social y una cultura de paz.

Luces y sombras del trabajo social en la dictadura franquista (España, 1939-1975): una historia aún por contar
Authors: Martinez Herrero Ines
Published: April 2024

Las diferencias entre la dictadura franquista (España, 1939-1975) y aquellas que, como la de Chile (1973-1990), asolaron América latina en las últimas décadas del siglo XX, son claras y numerosas. Hace 50 años, durante el golpe de Estado en Chile, la prolongada dictadura española ya estaba inmersa en un proceso de desintegración que culminó con la muerte natural del dictador en 1975 y el inicio de la transición democrática. Sin embargo, ambas dictaduras consolidaron su poder mediante una brutal represión política y han ganado notoriedad internacional en las últimas décadas al desvelarse la práctica de robo de bebés a familias opositoras. No obstante, en la literatura sobre la historia del trabajo social en España encontramos un gran silencio en torno a estas temáticas y una narrativa centrada de manera casi exclusiva en las “luces” de la trayectoria de la profesión (hitos, logros y aspiraciones). Si bien este enfoque se entiende atendiendo al contexto histórico en el que tuvo que desarrollarse entre muchas dificultades el trabajo social en el país, y desde “el espíritu de la transición”, este artículo defenderá que se vuelve fundamental, al día de hoy, volver la vista atrás e investigar también “las sombras” y recovecos de la historia de esta profesión. Explorar estas sombras develará episodios de los que no estaremos orgullosos/as, pero también historias de valiente resistencia. Más importante todavía, ayudará al trabajo social en España a conocerse mejor (incluido su peligroso potencial) y a ocupar su lugar en los procesos de recuperación de la memoria histórica y reconciliación, tanto de puertas adentro como al servicio de la sociedad, de acuerdo con su compromiso ético con los derechos humanos y la justicia social.

Published: April 2024

The current study was designed to explore all possible etiological features including mineral composition of soil and their effects on hemato-biochemical profile in buffaloes suffering from post-parturient hemoglobinuria. The total 384 buffaloes were randomly selected from Tehsil Bhalwal, District Sargodha, Pakistan. The post parturient hemoglobinuria was observed during the period of four months, from November 2016 to February 2017. The parameters including point prevalence of PPHU and hemato-biochemical profile were investigated. The data was analyzed using T-test and regression analysis through SPSS software. Out of 384 animals, 40 (10.4%) were confirmed with PPHU. All hemato-biochemical profile showed significant difference between healthy and affected groups instead mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), serum calcium and glucose, which were not significant. Vital signs including pulse and respiration showed significant difference but heart rate was found non-significant between both groups. The results regarding mineral analysis of the soil showed significant difference in phosphorus and copper and non-significant difference in calcium and molybdenum. Moreover, strong positive correlation was associated with phosphorus and molybdenum level while moderate positive correlation was attributed to the calcium and copper level in the soil. It is concluded that post parturient hemoglobinuria in buffaloes of Tehsil Bhalwal was associated with variation of soil composition, particularly the deficiency of phosphorus which is main cause of hemoglobinuria. It is necessary to fulfill the minerals requirement of soil and animal’s feed to overcome the problems of PPHU in affected areas.
The potential for disruption to the entire inventory management function schedule
Authors: Kumar Nilesh , Rabbani Quazzafi , Khan Nurul Azeez
Published: April 2024

In the framework of working capital, inventories hold the most strategic position among business enterprises. It comprises the most substantial portion of current assets in the majority of businesses. The effective management of inventory within the context of working capital is particularly concerning because inventories obstruct about two-thirds of the current assets of cement manufacturers. In the event of a calamitous event, the initiatives worsen supply chain disruptions, thereby introducing a novel compromise between resilience in the face of disruptions and effectiveness in the course of regular operations. When making stocking decisions, operational disruptions are taken into account. These are different from demand uncertainties in terms of the risks they pose because they last longer and stop production flow. As a consequence, operational disruptions can be considerably more catastrophic, despite their low probability of occurring. We use stochastic simulation to find insights that can be used in managing inventory when there is a risk of disruption. These insights come from combining the newsvendor and order-up-to models, which look at the costs of uncertain demand, with catastrophe models, which look at both the cost of a supply disruption and the cost of recovery. These insights pertain to the management function schedule, which is the subject of discussion in this paper.

Authors: Arshad Habib Malik  , Feroza Arshad  , Aftab Ahmad Memon
Published: April 2024

In this research work, an open-loop experimental DC motor from National Instruments is investigated for speed control applications in the nuclear industry with higher accuracy. For performance analysis, the DC motor is mathematically modeled, and advanced control techniques are established.  The two design approaches are therefore hardware in loop which is an experimental facility and mathematical in nature which is a simulation model. An adequate mathematical model of the DC motor is developed using the first principle. The hardware realization is accomplished by the DC motor experimental setup. Different advanced control algorithms such as PID, SMC, and MPC are developed for both model-based and hardware-based DC motor research studies. Model development, control synthesis, simulation, and analysis are carried out in Simulink and LabVIEW programming environments. Closed loop performance analyses of nonlinear and predictive controllers are evaluated and found much better, smoother, and robust than linear controllers for speed control of DC motors under different conditions.

Authors: Muhammad Nisar Khan  , Arshad Mahmood Malik  , Faheem Khan
Published: April 2024

This comprehensive study spanning from 1971-72 to 2021-22 consistently discerned distinct patterns of variability and instability within Pakistan's oilseed crops. Analyzing instability in the cultivation area, yield, and production of oilseed crops is crucial for effective planning and strategy formulation. The study encompasses the analysis of nine oilseed crops, namely cotton, rapeseed-mustard (including canola), sesame, groundnut, sunflower, castor seed, linseed, soybean, and safflower. The Coefficient of Variation (CV) and the Cuddy-Della Valle Instability Index (CDVI) were employed to assess fluctuations and instability in the cultivation area, production, and yield of these crops. The findings highlighted that cotton exhibited a high degree of instability in production and yield, while rapeseed-mustard (including canola) consistently displayed a high degree of production volatility, underscoring the critical need for a sustainable and steady supply of these commodities. Sesame output revealed frequent instability, demanding prompt and effective mitigation actions. Groundnut production consistently demonstrated mild inconsistency, emphasizing the need for vigilant monitoring to ensure supply stability. Sunflower cultivation faced substantial insecurity, necessitating comprehensive stabilization techniques. Soybean production continually grappled with significant insecurity across all factors, emphasizing the importance of robust risk management. Safflower production consistently posed challenges due to extreme instability, requiring ongoing solutions. Linseed regularly manifested moderate instability, indicating room for improvement with better management. Castor seed production showed considerable volatility in cultivation area and production but low yield instability, underscoring the significance of targeted stability solutions. Addressing insecurity in Pakistan's oilseed crop sectors is crucial for food security, requiring proactive measures like improved forecasting, resource allocation, and informed policy-making for long-term stability.

Securely Cloud Data Storage and Sharing
Authors:   Computer science & Engineering, SAM College of Engineering and Technology, Bhopal, India, kumar Nishant
Published: April 2024

With the increasing adoption of cloud computing, data storage and sharing have be-come integral parts of our digital lives. However, ensuring the security and privacy of data stored in the cloud remains a significant challenge. This paper proposes a novel approach for securely storing and sharing data in the cloud, addressing the vulnerabilities associated with traditional cloud storage models. The proposed approach utilizes advanced cryptographic techniques, including hyperchaotic encryption and hash functions, to protect the confidentiality and integrity of data stored in the cloud. The hyperchaotic encryption algorithm provides a high level of security by introducing chaos-based dynamics into the encryption process, making it resistant to various attacks. Additionally, the hash function ensures the integrity of data by generating unique identifiers for each file stored in the cloud. To enhance data sharing security, the proposed approach employs access control mechanisms and user authentication protocols. Access control rules are enforced to restrict unauthorized access to data, while user authentication ensures that only legitimate users can access and modify the shared data.
Multiclass Brain Tumor Classification Using Transfer Learning
Authors:   Department of Information Technology, V.R. Siddhartha Engineering College, Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh, India, JayaLakshmi G.
Published: April 2024

Tumors are a collection of abnormal cells that multiply enormously than required which leads to cancer and divergent and also can be fatal, if not identified at an early stage. Usually, brain scan described as Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is deployed for high transparency and representation in different angles but causes huge delay in declaring the result of the test. In this project, images obtained from these tests are carefully observed and classified by implementing Deep Residual Network (RESNET) to classify the type of tumor. There are four types of tumors such as glioma, meningioma, pituitary, and no tumor. Brain tumor classification (Multi Label) – CNN dataset has been imported to train and test the model. This deep learning model is a sophisticated approach which is developed to classify the tumor based on the image, so that appropriate treatment can be given on time. The output determines the type of tumor if present, otherwise no tumor with accuracy of 87% using epochs.

Sickle cell trait is a genetic condition that affects a substantial portion of the global population, particularly individuals of African descent. This study is aimed at evaluating anthropometric parameters and lipid profile parameters in subjects with sickle cell traits in Madonna University Teaching Hospital (MUTH), Elele. 72 subjects consisting of 30 HbAA (control), 21 HbAS, and 21 HbSS, all aged 18–40 years, were recruited for the study. Ethical clearance and informed consent were duly obtained from those involved. Blood samples were collected via venipuncture. Total cholesterol (TCH), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) were analyzed using enzymatic spectrophotometric method. Body mass index (BMI) was calculated as weight (kg) divided by height squared (m2). Data were analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 21 for Windows 7. The result from this study suggests that there are statistically significant differences (p < 0.05) among the genotype variants, HbAA, HbAS, and HbSS, for the TCH, TG, HDL, LDL, and hemoglobin (Hb) levels. For the control group (HbAA), the TCH is 4.51 mmol/L, TG is 1.21 mmol/L, HDL is 0.95 mmol/L, LDL is 2.81 mmol/L, and Hb is 14.02 g/dL. For the HbAS, the TCH is 4.16 mmol/L, TG is 0.73 mmol/L, HDL is 0.92 mmol/L, LDL is 2.82 mmol/L, and Hb is 13.02 g/dL. For the HbSS, the TCH is 3.39 mmol/L, TG is 0.59 mmol/L, HDL is 0.63 mmol/L, LDL is 2.59 mmol/L, and Hb is 10.85 g/dL. Also, the BMI (kg/m2) showed no statistically significant differences among the genotype variants, HbAA, HbAS, and HbSS (p > 0.05). This concludes that lipid metabolism may be altered in red cell genetic disorders such as sickle cell anemia.

One prevalent malignant tumor of the male prostate epithelium is called prostate cancer (PCa). The purpose of this study is to assess the C-reactive protein (CRP) and lipid profile of patients with PCa at Madonna University Teaching Hospital (MUTH), Elele. For the study, 50 hospital patients were enlisted. 20 of them were control patients, meaning they were not PCa patients, and the remaining 30 were patients with PCa and ranged in age from 25–65. All those engaged provided their informed permission and ethical clearance properly. Venipuncture was used to get blood samples. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to analyze CRP, while total cholesterol (TCH), triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) were measured using an enzymatic spectrophotometric approach. Data obtained from this study was analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 21 for Windows 7 and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), which were used to compare the means. The results were expressed as mean ± SD and values were considered significant at p < 0.05 and non-significant at p > 0.05. Results from this study showed a significant difference (p < 0.05) in the mean values of the following: TCH levels in PCa patients (6.39 ± 0.90 mmol/L) when compared to the control group (4.10 ± 0.50 mmol/L), TG levels in PCa patients (1.84 ± 0.27mmol/L) when compared with the control group (1.26 ± 0.24 mmol/L), HDL levels in PCa patients (0.92 ± 0.10 mmol/L) when compared with the control group (1.02 ± 0.11 mmol/L), LDL levels in PCa patients (4.45 ± 1.00 mmol/L) when compared with the control group (2.33 ± 0.38 mmol/L) and CRP levels in PCa patients (4.48 ± 0.77 mg/L) when compared with the control group (3.44 ± 0.80 mg/L). This probably indicates that the PCa group developed biochemical alteration in lipid profile and CRP parameters within an increased period of time.

Traduzione automatica “neurale” per il ladino della Val Badia
Authors: Frontull Samuel , Moser Georg
Published: April 2024

In this report we present a neural approach to machine translation for the Val Badia variant of Ladin. To achieve good results, neural models require a large number of exemplary translations on which they can be trained. The limited availability of such parallel data for Ladin makes it necessary to synthesise such data by using monolingual texts. We mainly use texts from the Ladin newspaper “La Usc di Ladins” as a basis for this so-called back translation. We translate these texts into Italian, using a rule-based system implemented in Apertium. Using DeepL API, we postprocess these translations and improve them, mainly at grammatical level. The resulting corpus serves as a basis for the different experiments we perform when we train models for this language pair. We train Transformer models from scratch and fine-tune pretrained models. With both methods we have achieved results that outperform the statistical and rule-based approaches to machine translation investigated so far. The models have been made available by means of a web application. Furthermore we have launched a platform for the continuous revision of the corpus to allow for the continuous improvement of the model through human post-editing.
Relazioni lessicali tra i dialetti dell’Italia settentrionale e le parlate della Ladinia
Authors: Bauer Roland
Published: April 2024

In contrast to the results based on the examination of phonetic and/or morphosyntactic corpora, the dialectological and dialectometric analysis of the lexical data published in the Linguistic Atlas of Dolomitic Ladin and Neighbouring Dialects (ALD) does not confirm the common classification of the three parts of Ladinia (as understood in the sense of Ascoli). From a lexical point of view, only Northern Dolo­mitic Ladin and Romansh differ greatly from Italian, while the Southern Dolo­mitic and Friulian lexicons are closer to the standards of the national language. As far as inter-Ladin relations are concerned, the languages of the Dolomite Ladinia and the Canton of Graubünden can be seen as antagonists of Friulian (Karnic). From the point of view of Romansh, the greatest lexical distance exists in relation to Northern Dolomite Ladin (from the Badia and Gardena valleys), with which it shares only a third of the more than 2.000 lexical features examined.
Analysis and Prediction of Students' Adaptation to Online Education Systems Based on Data Analysis and Decision Tree Machine Learning Algorithms
Authors: Li Yucong
Published: April 2024

In today's digital age, the popularity and development of online education systems provide students with more flexible and convenient ways of learning. However, students' adaptation to the online education system is affected by a variety of factors, including gender, age, educational background, and field of specialisation. Through in-depth analyses and studies of these factors, the following conclusions can be drawn: gender has little influence on students' adaptation to online education, and male and female students perform similarly overall, but the proportion of male students at high adaptation levels is significantly higher than that of females. The majority of students show medium adaptability, indicating that the overall effect of online education is average. students in the age groups of 6-10, 16-20 and 26-30 years old have lower adaptability levels, and there are more low adaptability groups among students in colleges and universities. students majoring in IT are more adapted to the online education system, and students not majoring in IT have relatively poorer adaptability level. Local students are more adaptable to online education than foreign students. In areas with unstable electricity, students' adaptability is usually lower. The decision tree algorithm predictions showed good overall model accuracy, with higher prediction accuracy for students with high, low and medium levels of adaptability. The test set accuracy was 93.27%, and the precision and recall were both 93.33%, indicating excellent model predictions. In summary, by deeply analysing the influence of various factors on students' adaptation degree to online education and using the random forest algorithm to make predictions, it can provide an important reference for improving the effectiveness of online education systems and provide useful insights for personalised education.
Assessing the Causal Effect of Special Education Services on Math Achievement: A Causal Inference and Machine Learning Study
Authors: Li Liangbang
Published: April 2024

This study aims to assess the Average Treatment Effect (ATE) of receiving special education services on revised Item Response Theory (IRT) scaled math achievement test scores. By employing a methodological repertoire comprising linear regression with ordinary least squares (OLS), propensity score matching (PSM), Bayesian Additive Regression Trees (BART), and Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), we examine the impact of these interventions. Leveraging data from the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study Kindergarten 2010-11 cohort (ECLS-K:2011), we systematically analyze the ATE of special education services on students' math achievement. The results show that all models yield negative ATE results, suggesting a deleterious effect of special education services on fifth-grade math scores. Furthermore, we employ Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to corroborate these findings, aligning with outcomes obtained from causal inference and Machine Learning (ML) based methods. This research emphasizes the importance of method diversity in educational research and highlights the need for assessments of intervention effectiveness to help educational practices and policies.

Published: April 2024

With the acceleration of urbanization, a large number of rural migrant workers have poured into cities, becoming an important driving force for urban construction and development. However, due to issues such as urban-rural disparities, inadequate social security, and lack of social trust, urban migrant workers face many difficulties that affect their sense of well-being and quality of life. This study quantitatively analyzes the well-being of migrant workers using data from the 2021 China General Social Survey, aiming to explore the impact of social security, social integration, and social needs on the well-being of urban migrant workers. Meanwhile, through literature review and theoretical analysis, the inherent connections and impact mechanisms among these factors are revealed. The results show that an improved social security system, enhanced social trust, and fulfillment of social needs can significantly enhance the well-being of urban migrant workers, providing important theoretical and practical support for achieving social harmony and promoting integrated urban-rural development.
