Semi-supervised learning approach to improve the predictability of data-driven rainfall-runoff model in hydrological data-sparse regions
Authors: Yoon Sunghyun , Ahn Kuk-Hyun
Published: July 2023

Abstract. Numerous data-driven models have been introduced to establish reliable predictions in the rainfall-runoff relationship. The majority of these models are trained using a supervised learning (SL) approach, with paired observed samples of climate and streamflow data. However, in practice, the availability of such paired observations is often constrained due to sparse data from streamflow gauges worldwide, which typically covers only a few years. This limited number of paired samples can significantly impede the learning ability of the data-driven model. The semi-supervised learning approach, which is an emerging machine learning paradigm that additionally incorporates unpaired samples, has the potential to be a highly effective method for modeling rainfall-runoff relationships. In this study, we present a novel semi-supervised learning-based framework for rainfall-runoff modeling. Our framework introduces a unique loss function designed to handle two distinct types of samples, namely paired and unpaired samples, effectively during the training process. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed framework, we conducted an extensive set of experiments employing a diverse range of designs, all of which utilized the LSTM network. The experiments are based on 531 basins from the freely available CAMELS dataset, which spans the entire continuous United States. Results indicate that the proposed framework show significantly enhanced performance compared to the baseline models. Results also show that the framework can serve as a viable alternative to the previously developed fully supervised approaches. Lastly, we address potential avenues for enhancing the model and provide an outline of our future research plans in this domain.

Published: July 2023

Abstract. Arctic cyclones are the most energetic weather systems in the Arctic, producing strong winds and precipitation that present major weather hazards. In summer, when the sea ice cover is reduced and more mobile, Arctic cyclones can have large impacts on ocean waves and sea ice. While the development of mid-latitude cyclones is known to be dependent on boundary layer (BL) turbulent fluxes, the dynamics of summer-time Arctic cyclones and their dependence on surface exchange processes have not been investigated. The purpose of this study is to characterise the BL processes acting in summer-time Arctic cyclones and understand their influence on cyclone evolution. The study focuses on two cyclone case studies, each characterised by a different structure during growth in the Arctic: (A) low-level-dominant vorticity (warm-core) structure and (B) upper-level-dominant vorticity (cold-core) structure, linked with a tropopause polar vortex. A potential vorticity (PV) framework is used to diagnose the BL processes in model runs from the ECMWF Integrated Forecasting System model. Both cyclones are associated with frictional Ekman pumping and downward sensible heat fluxes over sea ice. However, a third process, the frictional baroclinic generation of PV, acts differently in A and B due to differences in their low-level temperature structures. Positive PV is generated in Cyclone A near the bent-back warm front, like in typical mid-latitude cyclones. However, the same process produces negative PV tendencies in B, shown to be a consequence of the vertically aligned axisymmetric cold-core structure. This frictional process also acts to cool the lower troposphere, reducing the warm-core anomaly in A and amplifying the cold-core anomaly in B. Both cyclones attain a vertically aligned cold-core structure that persists for several days after maximum intensity, which is consistent with cooling from frictional Ekman pumping, frictional baroclinic PV generation, and downward sensible heat fluxes. This may help to explain the longevity of isolated cold-core Arctic cyclones with columnar vorticity structure.

During the storage of agricultural products, in order to maximally preserve quality indicators and to prevent spoilage, the creation of a special temperature and climate regime in the cold storage boxes, harmless to health and environmentally friendly preparations are used, which along with a temperature environment, allow for long-term, high-quality storage of products, as well as complex sanitary-hygienic measures, the main one of which is disinfection and deodorization of the cold storage boxes. The article discusses the studies on the treatment of agricultural products by ionized water and their further storage, in particular, for the greens storage, there was selected their treatment by „alkaline ionized water” while „acidic ionized water“ is used for disinfection of the cold storage boxes. The method of obtaining ionized water and the research object were selected, the storage conditions were established, and the quality and technological indicators of the greens were determined. The reduced density of glucose under optimal storage conditions varies from 28 to 19, and the reduced density of water ranges within 445 to 404 after 10 days of storage. The change of technological indicators after 3 and 10 days of storage amounts to: mass losses – 0.70% and 0.85%, water binding capacity - 70% and 61%, and water holding – 65% and 57%.

Estimation Of Alkaline Phosphatase In Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma Patient
Authors: SONONE ARCHANA
Published: July 2023

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is one of the life threatening and mutilating disease affecting the mankind. Most invasive OSCC are preceded by clinical premalignant lesions and conditions such as oral leukoplakia, erythroplakia, oral lichen planus, and oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF). These remain in preinvasive stage for years and the cancerous alterations remain indolent and not readily recognizable on clinical and histopathologic examination. There are various biological markers which can be used to monitor progression of precancerous lesions to cancer, predict the therapeutic response and prognostic outcome of cancer. Among these serum alkaline phosphates (ALP) is recognized as an important marker of induction of tumor cell differentiation. We attempt to analyze the role of these enzymes as a biomarker in OSCC cases.
Tuberculosis of Spine: A rare presentation case report and treatment protocol
Authors: Dasari Venkatesh
Published: July 2023

Spinal tuberculosis (ST), or Pott’s disease, was first described by Sir Percival Potts in 1779, albeit lacking a deep understanding of its etiology or pathophysiology. It was only after several years that the basis of ST was discovered to be the bacteria currently known as Mycobacterium tuberculosis. ST represents less than 1% of the total of cases of TB and accounts for 10% of extrapulmonary tuberculosis. In this case report we present the case of a middle aged man with symptoms mimicking prolapsed lumbar intervertebral disc with neurological deficit. Due to progressive neurology, the patient was managed with emergency surgery.

Published: July 2023

Company capital that is used from debt has a greater risk than the capital owned by the company itself. The company's capital used must be done optimally in order to minimize financial risks that can occur. The capital structure determines the use of debt by financial managers to fund company activities. Decisions on capital structure (capital structure) include the selection of sources of funds both from own capital and foreign capital in the form of debt. In this case, capital becomes an important element for the running of a strategic business where the company needs to conduct a study and determine the size of the company's needs and ability to provide capital to support the work or business that will be carried out.
The homing of newcomers in Brussels at the intersection of bordering and urban speculation: From survival strategies to infrastructures for civic imagination and urban inclusion
Authors: Nagi Tasneem , Verheyden Heleen , Vandermeulen An , d’Auria Viviana , Beeckmans Luce
Published: July 2023

Informed by a year of participatory action research in Globe Aroma, an organisation supporting artists and art lovers with a background as newcomers in Brussels, this paper examines how newcomers negotiate their homing at the intersection of bordering and securitisation on the one side, and gentrification and urban speculation on the other. We argue that these exclusionary structures of power do not only challenge newcomers’ homing by restricting access to housing, but also by creating precarious conditions for supportive organisations, which are often housed in low-quality, temporary infrastructures. Our research explores how housing and socio-cultural organisations in Brussels begin to utilise coalition-building and space-sharing as survival strategies, that gradually transform into a common claim for permanent infrastructures and become tools for building solidarity and homing the city. In doing so, they foster an alternative vision of urban citizenship, grounded in community-building and decent housing and services for all.

Software Usability for Different Age Groups
Authors: Bushra Naila
Published: July 2023

The writers of software are the people who have sound knowledge about
all the technicalities that take place behind the scene. But these people
are not the sole users of the software. In this modern era of scientific
evolution, the usage of software in day-to-day life is inevitable.
Scientists have been working for ages to make human lives better and the
creation of smart software has boosted this advancement to a great extent.
The majority of the world population has access to some sort of software
that they use irrespective of their age and gender. However, the real
question is, as the rate of software usage is increasing rapidly, is there
any effort being made to simplify the way users should interact with
software? In this paper, we propose a guideline for developing age-neutral
software interfaces. For the sake of limiting the scope of this study, we
will only consider software systems that we use in our personal devices such
as desktops, laptops, tablets, cell phones, notepads, and kindles, etc.

Authors: Yan Tingmin , Chen Zihe
Published: July 2023

This study aimed to explore the design elements and their corresponding
weights for attention training products for preschool children to enhance
their effectiveness. A mixed-methods approach was used to investigate
factors related to attention training in preschool children. An evaluation
matrix for the design elements of attention training products was
constructed for preschool children using an Analytic Hierarchy Process, and
a weight analysis was conducted. The Technique for Order Preference by
Similarity to Ideal Solution was then utilized to obtain positive and
negative ideal solutions for the three attention training product designs,
and the best design was selected based on their relative closeness. The
results revealed that genetic factors (C13), health level (C14), and family
upbringing (C34) were important design elements for attention training
products for preschool children. Among the three tested designs, the
clip-on-ball toy was found to be the best solution. These findings provide
valuable insights for the optimized design of attention training products
for preschool children and practical application in the product development
cycle's design and selection stages.
Human-centred design: Promoting interactions between children and
caregivers in play spaces
Authors: Wai Michael Siu Kin , Yi Jian Izzy
Published: July 2023

Most of the time children are necessary to go to play spaces with
caregivers. However, play spaces in general are designed for children that
caregivers are always excluded. Sometimes only basic resting facilities are
provided for the caregivers. In the recent years, some studies have already
concerned the inclusiveness of public play spaces for the needs of children
and their peers with different motion, sensory and cognitive capabilities.
On the other hand, there is still very rare to have research on the
inclusiveness of the design of public play spaces for caregivers. Taking
Hong Kong as a case study, this paper reviews and explores the meanings of
public play spaces and identify direct and possible indirect users. The
study also explores the current social issues, in particular the family and
household-member factors, related to the design of public play spaces, in a
densely populated city. The paper then identifies the needs and preferences
of different direct and indirect users of public play spaces, addresses the
commonly overlooked needs of caregivers in the design of public play spaces,
and uncovers the design gaps which, if addressed, could significantly
enhance the inclusivity and relevance of public play spaces amidst evolving
social contexts.

reality scenarios
Authors: Villar Alejandro , León Carlos
Published: July 2023

Virtual reality (VR) is a potentially useful technology for training and
simulating hazardous scenarios. It is particularly useful for firefighters,
healthcare staff or the military, which face emergency situations that
involve high levels of stress. Studies have shown that the participant's
stress level is increased when confronted with a hazardous scenario in a
virtual environment, as would be expected in a realistic simulation. This
research describes a methodology based on measuring interactions and
objectives in hazardous scenarios, and an empirical study for assessing the
participant's performance improvement. A prototype virtual reality
experience in which the participants face a radiation emergency has been
developed and a pilot study has been run. The methodology, a qualitative and
a quantitative analysis with preliminary but promising results are
described.
The use of gamification in the knowledge management practices
Authors: Jeyaranjan Prasheenaa , Alexander Rukshan
Published: July 2023

This study develops a new conceptual model through an extensive review
of previous literature and explains how gamification artifacts such as
points rewarding is inducing intrinsic motivation and how those motivational
factors like knowledge self-efficacy and playfulness are influencing the
employees' knowledge sharing attitudes, through which the intentions are
shaped. The Theory of Reasoned Action and the Motivational Affordances
Perspective (MAP) model are used to explain the mediation effect of
intrinsic motivation on the relationship between the gamification artifact
and employees' attitudes towards knowledge sharing. This study also focuses
on identifying the factors that improve the predictability of attitudes
towards knowledge sharing. In a managerial context, this study helps
practitioners recognize the importance of devising strategies and creative
ideas to include and advance the features of gamification artifacts in their
gamification systems to enhance their intrinsic motivation and drive an
inner change in employees to share knowledge with others.
Quality Function Deployment Implementation using Digital Twins Paradigm
Authors: Sarka Remmon , Fatahi Valilai Omid
Published: July 2023

Considering the Information Technology continuous innovation and
upcoming technological trends, industries are now more eager to utilize
inventive technologies to adopt and efficiently function in today's
competitive business environment. Technologies such as big data, IoT and now
digital twins are now being widely applied through a broad spectrum of
different industries and have already had a game-changing impact.
Technologies such as digital twins despite coming the extra mile in recent
years still hold a more promising future. Digital twins will emerge as one
of the key tools in many industries, especially in manufacturing. This paper
takes a closer look at how the retail industry is utilizing digital twins to
better implement quality function development of a product. With the
proposed framework, Quality function developments can be improved to collect
data from customers through social networks and boil down the data of the
voice of the customer through product development process. These Voice of
the Customer items will continue to trickle down into other stages of
product development and deployment, including component definition, process
planning, and quality control. This study has established a connection among
social media data analytics and links it to QFD framework. Using social
media data, the emotions of the customer can be viewed in real-time what
people are saying about the product. This not only helps in creating a
better product it also enriches the customer experience. To clarify the
capabilities of the proposed idea, an illustrative case is designed and
explained for link of social data analytics tools with QFD through a digital
twin enabled framework. This gives customers a chance to be integrated into
the product development process and as a result, produce results in better
satisfying customers' expectations.
From unsafe acts to system resilience - how emerging technologies in the
O&G industry reach new safety frontiers
Authors: Franca Josue , Hollnagel Erik
Published: July 2023

This study explores an historical evolution of the O&G industry,
which has heavily relied on technological innovation to meet the operational
challenges of its production chain. However, safety developments have
sometimes failed to keep up with the technological evolution of this
industry. In the beginning, its operations were marked by wild exploitation
and numerous accidents, maintaining this scenario where there was the
perpetuation of linear safety concepts, for increasingly complex workplaces.
Traditional views of safety, such Safety-I, fails to capture the complexity
and variability of real-world operations of the entire O&G production
chain. To deal with complexity, evolved approaches of safety, such as
Safety-II, recognizes that variability and trade-offs are inherent in
complex sociotechnical systems and that people are an essential part of
creating safety. Furthermore, Resilience Engineering is discussed, shifting
the safety management from human error and accidents to system resilience
and its own ability to cope with and adapt to disturbances. Embrace the
complex reality of the work, grounded by evolved approaches of safety,
provides a more comprehensive and effective way to assess, manage, and
provide solutions in today's workplaces, ensuring an integration between
productivity and safety.

words, it is based on Euclidean approach which is interval scale and
cardinal based. But human needs shifts from material to mental or from
product to emotion. And Maslow pointed out "Self-Actuatlization" is our
final need and Deci and Ryan proposed Self-Determination Theory and we get
the highest satisfaction and feeling of achievement, when we do the job we
wish to accomplish and in our own way. They also pointed out this is very
important for our growth. The Industrial Society is getting close to its end
and now we need to design and develop the next Society. In a word, our world

Occupational psychosocial risks identification and assessment at Labour
Offices in the Czech Republic
Authors: Lipsova Vladimira , Mrazova Karolina , Bátrlová Kateřina , Navratil Tomas , Stepanek Martin , Zacharov Sergey
Published: July 2023

Psychosocial risks at work can be defined as a set of risks resulting
from the employee's interaction with the work environment, the nature and
organization of work and interpersonal relationships both inside and outside
the workplace. Data collection was provided through an online questionnaire
survey in December 2021 in 5 selected Labour Offices in the Czech Republic.
A special questionnaire was prepared and tailored to the needs of workers
exposed to demanding communication with clients. This questionnaire survey
was done after the pilot study to ensure the adequacy of the questions,
comprehensiveness of the contents, and clearness of instructions. The
questionnaire was divided into the mandatory part with Demographic data (7
questions), Work with the client (10 questions) and Resilience (10
questions). Optional areas of the questionnaire covered Communication with
superior and team (9 questions), Nature of the work (8 questions), Work
organization (9 questions), Job evaluation (5 questions), and Job change,
digitalization and unexpected crises (4 questions). A total number of 1168
questionnaires were included for further analysis. The study group consisted
of 93% women and 7% men. The biggest age group of respondents was between 50
to 64 years (33%). The results showed the highest satisfaction of employees
in the area of communication at the workplace, whereas employees were most
dissatisfied with work changes. For 58% of respondents, communication with
the work team and superior impacted their job satisfaction. If there was a
conflict or escalation of communication when dealing with a client at the
counter at the Labour Office, only 1.7% of respondents stated that they had
equipment at the workplace place to signalize and monitor the potentially
dangerous clients. Our results demonstrated several very problematic areas
of psychosocial risks at the workplaces of Labour
Offices.Acknowledgements:This result was financially supported by

Imagination in Catholic Thought and Peacebuilding
Authors: Gutiérrez González Eduardo
Published: July 2023

Some authors argue that current Western cultures suffer from a closed imagination, i.e., one caught up in itself, incapable of conceiving the world differently; but what would an exploration of the imaginative structure of Catholic thought reveal? How can contemporary approaches to the imagination improve our understanding of Catholic peacebuilding and the Social Teaching from which it develops? I begin by offering a general sketch of peacebuilding and Catholic social teaching, highlighting their efforts as transformative procedures and fundamentally imaginative endeavors, i.e., processes strongly relying on the imagination. Considering this, I then revisit contemporary understandings of the imagination and the cultural role of social imaginaries. I end by suggesting that an awareness of these presents Catholic social teaching with opportunities to grow and adapt, whilst enriching our approach to Catholic peacebuilding.

Objective: The objectives of this research are to analyze the Moslem heirs to submit themselves to Western Inheritance Law whom the property leaver has a different religion and the authority of the Notary to make a Deed of Statement to submit to Indonesian Civil Code. The benefits of this research are to give a contribution of academic and practical thoughts on the manner to analyze the issue of inheritance of different religions, especially on the rights for the Moslem heirs to submit themselves to Western Inheritance Law who the property leaver has a different religion and the authority of the Notary to make Deed of Statement to submit to Civil Code.
 
Method: This is normative legal research which has a prescriptive character, with the statute approach, conceptual approach, and comparative approach.
 
Results and Conclusion: The Moslem heirs have the opportunity of right to certify to submit himself to Civil Code in an Authentic Deed made by/ before the Notary because according to Judge-Made Law of Supreme Court of Number 172 K/Sip?1974 and the Redaction of the Results of Plenary Meeting of The Supreme Court of The Republic of Indonesia dated 3 to 5 May 2012 in the Circular of The Supreme Court Number 7 of 2012 that it is the law of the property leaver is applicable and in this matter the non-Moslem property leaver, in the case for the sake of legal certainty and legal protection, the Western Inheritance Law provides more guarantee because it is written rules, compared to unwritten customary inheritance law. The authority of the Notary to make a Deed of Statement to Submit to the Civil Code for the Moslem heirs is open because in principle a Notary is a public official (State representative) who is appointed by the State to meet the public need to legal certainty and law enforcement in a form of the authentic deed by holding firmly professionally to the Notary’s Position Act.
 
Contribution: Given the growing development and advancement of people's thinking patterns and the increasing complexity of problems in the field of inheritance, especially the inheritance of different religions, the government, especially the legislature, should start making rules as a legal bridge in which it regulates how to solve problems regarding inheritance of different religions as a reference and guideline for settlement. dispute problem when two or more legal systems

Latar belakang: Kualitas hidup merupakan aspek penting yang perlu diperhatikan terutama pada kelompok lansia yang memiliki penyakit hipertensi. Hipertensi yang diderita tentunya akan berdampak pada terjadinya keparahan penyakit hipertensi yang diderita. Instrument spesifik terhadap kualitas hidup lansia dengan masalah hipertensi diperlukan sebagai dasar pemberian intervensi keperawatan yang komprehensif kepada lansia.

Tujuan: Penelitian ini bertujuan melakukan uji validitas dan realibilitas instrumen kuesioner pengkajian kualitas hidup lansia hipertensi

Metode: Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian pengembangan (Research & Development) dengan pendekatan kuantitatif. Validasi instrument dilakukan oleh 10 pakar yang dianggap ahli di bidang keperawatan gerontic. Peneliti melakukan uji validitas berdasarkan penilaian ahli (expert judgement) dan uji reliabilitas instrument kepada 30 orang lansia yang berada di masyarakat.

Hasil: Hasil uji validasi dengan pakar didapatkan saran perbaikan terhadap isi pernyataan kuesioner yang dikembangkan, setelah di revisi dan valid menurut pakar, kuesioner dilakukan uji pemahaman bahasa kepada 5 lansia dan diperoleh hasil kuesioner dapat dipahami lansia dengan baik. Hasil Uji reliabilitas menunjukkan dari 41 item pernyataan dari ketiga domain didapatkan sebanyak 20 item pernyataan yang valid dengan nilai alpha Cronbach >0.60.

Kesimpulan: Sebanyak 20 item pernyataan yang terdiri dari domain fisik, psikologis dan kemandirian valid dan reliabel sebagai instrument pengkajian untuk lansia hipertensi. Perlunya dilakukan pengembangan instrument kualitas hidup dengan menggabungkan seluruh domain yang ada pada kualitas hidup lansia dengan hipertensi sebagai tools untuk pengkajian kualitas hidup lansia yang menderita hipertensi.
Symmetry, Schoenberg, and the Musical Idea: Denis ApIvor’s Variations, Op. 29 (1958)
Authors: Chandler Oliver
Published: July 2023

Perhaps guitar composers innovated in the field of twelve-tone composition because they were not really aware of what their colleagues, continental or domestic, were doing? They had latched onto an abstract, theoretical principle, detached from the rich Second-Viennese repertory that had given it life, and then developed it in their own way and for their own ends. Chapter 2 suggests that this narrative would be too reductive. It argues that the opening Poco lento from ApIvor’s Variations, Op. 29, demonstrates the composer’s sensitivity to, and detailed understanding of, the ways in which Schoenberg used intervallic symmetry as an ideal that structured the unfolding of an entire dodecaphonic piece—by means of that ideal’s being hinted at, frustrated, and then ultimately realized. As the first variation develops, ApIvor uses the collectional invariance afforded by hexachordal combinatoriality to manipulate row order, thus facilitating the eventual realization (after a thwarted attempt) of the previously inchoate symmetrical potential of its two constituent hexachords. This aspect of Schoenberg’s twelve-tone technique—dynamic and developmental—has only recently received extensive treatment in scholarly literature (as in the work of Jack Boss). That ApIvor had potentially recognized its importance as early as 1958 suggests the inherent interest of the Variations as a document of Anglophone Schoenberg reception. Furthermore, the variation's symmetrical solution—a new ordering of the basic row—is wonderfully idiomatic, consisting of a sliding-sixths handshape and open strings. Far from the adoption of a modernist idiom forcing the guitar to behave as if it were something other than itself, twelve-tone denouement here coincides exactly with the music’s becoming most guitaristic. The Variations might thus be thought to represent an important point of synthesis between the history of musical modernism and the history of guitar composition.

This work proposes the Two-headed DragoNet, a Transformer-based model for hierarchical multi-label classification of financial transactions. Our model is based on a stack of Transformers encoder layers that generates contextual embeddings from two short textual descriptors (merchant name and business activity), followed by a Context Fusion layer and two output heads that classify transactions according to a hierarchical two-level taxonomy (macro and micro categories). Finally, our proposed Taxonomy-aware Attention Layer corrects predictions that break categorical hierarchy rules defined in the given taxonomy. Our proposal outperforms classical machine learning methods in experiments of macro-category classification by achieving an F1-score of 93% on a card dataset and 95% on a current account dataset.

Ainda que os dados sobre a propriedade estejam cada vez mais digitalizados, os registros ainda incluem informações desatualizadas advindas de bases de dados historicamente inconsistentes. Os registros de propriedade antigos são automaticamente inseridos em novos formatos digitais, ficando em conflito com campos e bases atuais mais padronizadas. Tal é o caso do banco de imóveis de Fortaleza, onde este estudo se baseia. Esse artigo apresenta como algoritmos de agrupamento podem ajudar a encontrar inconsistências nas bases prediais. Os resultados estimam que 2.048 registros prediais estejam inconsistentes, necessitando limpeza e correção.

Disruptive applications for mobile devices can be enhanced by edge computing facilities. In this context, Edge Computing (EC) is a proposed architecture to meet the mobility requirements imposed by these applications in a wide range of domains, such as the Internet of Things, Immersive Media, and Connected and Autonomous Vehicles. EC architecture aims to introduce computing capabilities in the path between the user and the Cloud to execute tasks closer to where they are consumed, thus mitigating issues related to latency, context awareness, and mobility support. In this survey, we describe which are the leading technologies to support the deployment of EC infrastructure. Thereafter, we discuss the applications that can take advantage of EC and how they were proposed in the literature. Finally, after examining enabling technologies and related applications, we identify some open challenges to fully achieve the potential of EC, and also research opportunities on upcoming paradigms for service provisioning. This survey is a guide to comprehend the recent advances on the provisioning of mobile applications, as well as foresee the expected next stages of evolution for these applications.
