The Genealogy of Confucian Modernity and the Reconstruction of Confucian Traditions in Post-Liberation Korea
Authors: Hunjoo Kim
Published: July 2024

Abstract: This article aims to trace the genealogy of Confucian modernity after Korea's liberation from Japanese rule and analyze how the historical context in which Confucian traditions were reconstructed. It seeks to analyze the process through which the disparate concepts of modernity and Confucianism were combined, moving beyond the perspective of denigration and development of Confucian traditions found in existing studies and approaching it from the perspective of postcolonial studies and traditions as invented practices. From the post-liberation period to the early 1960s, two arguments competed: one viewed Confucianism as having ruined the country, while the other claimed that it had sprouted modern times. While the former view still persisted, Confucianism was being used for political purposes, and scholars including Ch'ŏn Kwanu made efforts to find the sprout of modernism from Confucianism. The turning point came with the fervor of "modernization" that swept the country and the world in the 1960s. Influenced by domestic and foreign modernization theories, including Rostow's modernization theory, which began in the United States, the Park Chung Hee regime embraced the "modernization of the motherland" as its slogan. At the academic level, this trend was reinforced by the United States' support for Korean studies. In this process, discussions linking traditional Confucianism with modernization became more sophisticated in the intellectual community. By the late 1960s, these discussions went beyond explaining the connection between Confucianism and modernity through the concept of sprouting and reached a level of directly mentioning their connection. In the 1970s, this trend intensified further, leading to the conclusion that sirhak (practical learning) in Confucianism had pioneered its own modernization theory before the adoption of Western modernity. Through these analyses, this study aims to delineate the genealogy of discussions about Confucianism, such as that it is the cause of underdevelopment represented by stagnation or that it is the basis of East Asian modernity. Ultimately, by analyzing the contexts in which Confucian traditions are reconceptualized, this study aims to critically reconstruct the notions of tradition, nationalism, and modernity.
Staging "Civilization and Enlightenment"—Yi Kwang-su's Kyuhan and the Communicability of Modern Theater Space
Authors: Stampton Owen
Published: July 2024

Abstract: Under the banner of civilization and enlightenment, new-intellectuals of the early twentieth century sought to challenge damaging past traditions and social practices to give rise to a new era for the people of Korea. Coinciding with this push toward modern progress, the theater simultaneously arose as a new feature of the urban landscape. Writers like Yi Kwang-su stressed the communicative potential of new literary trends. He was one of the earliest to turn to drama as a means of shaping a future Korea; he utilized the palpable realism fostered by stage space as a means to channel his progressive ideas to society. Published in Hakjigwang in 1917, Kyuhan (Sorrows of the Inner Room), potentially Korea's first modern play, is a work that frankly portrays the damages of dated Confucian moralities and traditions. In penning a drama that brings the modern Chosŏn intellectual of Yi's urban audience into a uniquely female space of domesticity, pain and subalternity, the audience becomes privy to the bitter realities of Chosŏn women and the importance of autonomy, education and true love. Through discussions on heterotopic space, spectatorship and the relationship between actor and audience, this study will explore Kyuhan and the birth of the modern stage. In this, we come understand Yi's vision of theater as a new site for enlightenment progress that could shock and provoke the public into action.

Published: July 2024

Space-time coding (STC) digital metasurfaces enable dynamic control of nonlinear harmonics. To achieve efficient frequency tuning and harmonic control, we propose a one-bit column-controlled temporal coding dual-frequency point STC digital metasurface. Using a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) to control diode switching, the metasurface is encoded to generate multiple target reflected harmonics as independent information transmission channels. The amplitude intensities of these harmonics are defined as independent binary symbols for transmission. The proposed space-time coding digital metasurface can achieve a phase shift of 180° in its unit structure, with reflectivities above 90% at both operating frequencies. We fabricated the designed metasurface and tested its far-field scattering experimentally. When the incident electromagnetic wave frequency is 4.63 GHz, the predicted results are essentially consistent with the experimental findings.
Synthetic color-and-depth encoded (sCade) illumination-based high-resolution light field particle imaging velocimetry

Published: July 2024

Light-field particle imaging velocimetry (LF-PIV) is widely used in large-scale flow field measurement scenarios due to its instant 3D imaging capability. However, conventional LF-PIV systems suffer low axial resolution and thereby have limited application in high-resolution and volumetric velocity measurements. Here, we report the use of synthetic color-and-depth-encoded (sCade) illumination to improve the axial resolution of LF-PIV. The sCade LF-PIV illuminated the imaging region with a color-and-depth encoded beam synthesized by structured beams of three lasers with distinct wavelengths and attained high-fidelity particle localization by decoding the color and depth information encoded in the acquired image. We systematically characterized the system performance by imaging particles and obtained 29 times improvement in axial resolution when compared to traditional LF-PIV. The high axial resolution of sCade LF-PIV allowed it to reconstruct vortices generated by square lid-driven cavity flow and a stirring disk with higher accuracy and smaller errors than the conventional method, highlighting the possibility and advantage of sCade LF-PIV for high-resolution and volumetric flow measurement applications. This approach can favorably advance the development of fluid measurement technology.
Robust pixel-wise illuminant estimation algorithm for images with a low bit-depth
Authors: Yue Shuwei , Wei Minchen
Published: July 2024

Conventional illuminant estimation methods were developed for scenes with a uniform illumination, while recently developed methods, such as pixel-wise methods, estimate the illuminants at the pixel level, making them applicable to a wider range of scenes. It was found that the same pixel-wise algorithm had very different performance when applied to images with different bit-depths, with up to a 30% decrease in accuracy for images having a lower bit-depth. Image signal processing (ISP) pipelines, however, prefer to deal with images with a lower bit-depth. In this paper, the analyses show that such a reduction was due to the loss of details and increase of noises, which were never identified in the past. We propose a method combining the L1 loss optimization and physical-constrained post-processing. The proposed method was found to result in around 40% higher estimation accuracy, in comparison to the state-of-the-art DNN-based methods.
Imaging quality enhancement in photon-counting single-pixel imaging via an ADMM-based deep unfolding network in small animal fluorescence imaging
Authors: Huang Zhuoyao , Zhang Jie , Liu Lirui , Zhao Xiaojun , Gong Hui , Luo Qingming , Yang Xiaoquan
Published: July 2024

Photon-counting single-pixel imaging (SPI) can image under low-light conditions with high-sensitivity detection. However, the imaging quality of these systems will degrade due to the undersampling and intrinsic photon-noise in practical applications. Here, we propose a deep unfolding network based on the Bayesian maximum a posterior (MAP) estimation and alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) algorithm. The reconstruction framework adopts a learnable denoiser by convolutional neural network (CNN) instead of explicit function with hand-crafted prior. Our method enhances the imaging quality compared to traditional methods and data-driven CNN under different photon-noise levels at a low sampling rate of 8%. Using our method, the sensitivity of photon-counting SPI prototype system for fluorescence imaging can reach 7.4 pmol/ml. In-vivo imaging of a mouse bearing tumor demonstrates an 8-times imaging efficiency improvement.
Low-threshold green lasing in heterogeneously integrated InGaN-based micro-rings covered by distributed Bragg reflectors on Si (100)

Published: July 2024

In this work, combining a series of wafer bonding, laser lift-off and chemical mechanical polishing processes, submicron-thick wafer-scale GaN-based thin-film epilayers are successfully transferred on Si (100), which provides a heterogeneous platform for fabricating microcavities for nitride-based integrated photonics. Low-threshold lasing via optical pumping from these transferred dry-etched green micro-ring cavities on Si is demonstrated by covering the whole micro-rings with dielectric distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs), which greatly reduces the lasing threshold upon a better optical confinement at the ring rim. A high quality-factor of ∼3800 can be observed from the micro-rings beyond the lasing threshold under pulsed excitation conditions. Furthermore, room-temperature continuous-wave (CW) lasing at a wavelength of 521.7 nm with an ultralow threshold of 0.35 kW/cm2 is achieved. Our results suggest the use of a burying DBR layer notably improves the WGM microcavity confinement, providing insights for the design of low-threshold micro-lasers and low-loss waveguides for potential integrated photonic applications in the visible light range on the Si platform.
Modeling of compliant-based support for large aperture rotary prisms with horizontal-axis
Authors: Lv Tao , Wen Wansha , Ruan Ping , Hao Wei
Published: July 2024

In the Thirty-Meter-Telescope (TMT), a pair of wedge prisms with diameters of approximately 1500 mm are proposed to mitigate atmospheric dispersion across different zenith angles. This is achieved through controlled linear and rotary movements of the prisms. However, providing stable support for such large aperture prisms, with variable cross-sections and capable of rotating 360° around a horizontal optical axis, poses a significant challenge. This paper introduces a compliant-based support method tailored for TMT’s large aperture prisms. The methodology involves a mechanical analysis of the wedge prism with push-pull forces combination, followed by the development of the support principle based on degrees of freedom and constraints analysis. Subsequently, numerical modeling is conducted using compliant elements as the fundamental units. Furthermore, an integrated optomechanical analysis is performed to evaluate the performance of the support. The findings demonstrate that employing this support method results in superior optical surface accuracy under the coupled conditions of gravity and temperature, particularly for prisms with large apertures, variable cross-sections, and rotational capabilities.
High-power single-frequency continuous-wave 355 nm UV laser via a frequency-correlated dual-wavelength laser
Authors: Wei Jiao , Wang Yongdong , Yin Ruixi , Su Jing , Lu Huadong
Published: July 2024

An all-solid-state single-frequency continuous-wave (CW) 355 nm ultraviolet (UV) laser based on a dispersion-compensated doubly resonant resonator is presented in this Letter that is achieved by employing homemade high-stability all-solid-state frequency-correlated dual-wavelength lasers at 1064 and 532 nm and a temperature-controlled type-I critical-phase-matching LiB3O5 (LBO) to act as the fundamental laser source and the nonlinear medium, respectively. The frequency-correlated dual-wavelength single-frequency CW laser supplies the fundamental frequency 1064 and 532 nm lasers with good frequency synchronization. And the temperature-controlled LBO acts as the dispersion-compensation element to realize double resonance of the 1064 and 532 nm laser. Finally, a 4.2 W high-stability 355 nm UV laser is experimentally obtained, and the corresponding total conversion efficiency is up to 20.5%. To the best of our knowledge, this is the highest power reported about single-frequency CW 355 nm UV laser. The presented method can pave a way to develop a compact single-frequency 355 nm UV laser with high output power.
Fringe pattern analysis based on the two-dimensional synchrosqueezing transform
Authors: Kusano Tsubasa , Yatabe Kohei , Oikawa Yasuhiro
Published: July 2024

Windowed Fourier transform (WFT) is used to analyze fringe patterns observed from optical measurements. The space–frequency resolution of the WFT is limited, which affects the analyzing performance. In this Letter, we propose to apply the two-dimensional synchrosqueezing transform (SST) for analyzing fringe patterns. The SST is a technique used to overcome the limitation of the space–frequency resolution of the WFT, which sharpens the WFT representation using the derivative of the WFT phase. Numerical experiments confirm the effectiveness of the SST in denoising the fringe pattern and estimating the local frequency from the observed fringe pattern.
Targeted iterative assembly and the midpoint method for improved convergence in point-by-point algorithms for freeform generation
Authors: Cionek Marcelo Prado , Barbano Emerson Cristiano
Published: July 2024

We present the target iterative assembly (TIA), an algorithm to generate freeform lenses for non-imaging systems from prescribed input rays and a distribution of targets, whose coordinates are functions of the positional and angular variables of the source distribution, granting the optical design unlimited customization and control over aberrations, whereas the angular iterative assembly (AIA) presented in a previous work was restricted to choosing output angles. The formalism employed seeks to generalize a class of existing point-by-point iterative construction methods. We also elaborate variations of the midpoint method, a predictor-corrector approach to enhance convergence of the solutions with fewer rays and analyze the sensibility of their error profiles to changes in the initial parameters. For N
R
rays, we obtained surface average errors and computing times proportional to (10 N
R
)−2 and 10−5 N
R
seconds, respectively, allowing for quick solutions within the precision limits of fabrication. We also discuss two algorithms for the generation of multiple successive surfaces, one which leads to apodization, and set the base for further developments, such as a 3D version to properly generate freeforms. The Python code with fully customizable system parameters is available.

Published: July 2024

The classification of B cell lymphomas—mainly based on light microscopy evaluation by a pathologist—requires many years of training. Since the B cell receptor (BCR) of the lymphoma clonotype and the microenvironmental immune architecture are important features discriminating different lymphoma subsets, we asked whether BCR repertoire next-generation sequencing (NGS) of lymphoma-infiltrated tissues in conjunction with machine learning algorithms could have diagnostic utility in the subclassification of these cancers. We trained a random forest and a linear classifier via logistic regression based on patterns of clonal distribution, VDJ gene usage and physico-chemical properties of the top-n most frequently represented clonotypes in the BCR repertoires of 620 paradigmatic lymphoma samples—nodular lymphocyte predominant B cell lymphoma (NLPBL), diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)—alongside with 291 control samples. With regard to DLBCL and CLL, the models demonstrated optimal performance when utilizing only the most prevalent clonotype for classification, while in NLPBL—that has a dominant background of non-malignant bystander cells—a broader array of clonotypes enhanced model accuracy. Surprisingly, the straightforward logistic regression model performed best in this seemingly complex classification problem, suggesting linear separability in our chosen dimensions. It achieved a weighted F1-score of 0.84 on a test cohort including 125 samples from all three lymphoma entities and 58 samples from healthy individuals. Together, we provide proof-of-concept that at least the 3 studied lymphoma entities can be differentiated from each other using BCR repertoire NGS on lymphoma-infiltrated tissues by a trained machine learning model.
A mathematical model of COVID-19 with multiple variants of the virus under optimal control in Ghana
Authors: Kim Young Rock , Min Youngho , Okogun-Odompley Joy Nana
Published: July 2024

In this paper, we suggest a mathematical model of COVID-19 with multiple variants of the virus under optimal control. Mathematical modeling has been used to gain deeper insights into the transmission of COVID-19, and various prevention and control strategies have been implemented to mitigate its spread. Our model is a SEIR-based model for multi-strains of COVID-19 with 7 compartments. We also consider the circulatory structure to account for the termination of immunity for COVID-19. The model is established in terms of the positivity and boundedness of the solution and the existence of equilibrium points, and the local stability of the solution. As a result of fitting data of COVID-19 in Ghana to the model, the basic reproduction number of the original virus and Delta variant was estimated to be 1.9396, and the basic reproduction number of the Omicron variant was estimated to be 3.4905, which is 1.8 times larger than that. We observe that even small differences in the incubation and recovery periods of two strains with the same initial transmission rate resulted in large differences in the number of infected individuals. In the case of COVID-19, infections caused by the Omicron variant occur 1.5 to 10 times more than those caused by the original virus. In terms of the optimal control strategy, we formulate three control strategies focusing on social distancing, vaccination, and testing-treatment. We have developed an optimal control model for the three strategies outlined above for the multi-strain model using the Pontryagin’s Maximum Principle. Through numerical simulations, we analyze three optimal control strategies for each strain and also consider combinations of the two control strategies. As a result of the simulation, all control strategies are effective in reducing disease spread, in particular, vaccination strategies are more effective than the other two control strategies. In addition the combination of the two strategies also reduces the number of infected individuals by 1/10 compared to implementing one strategy, even when mild levels are implemented. Finally, we show that if the testing-treatment strategy is not properly implemented, the number of asymptomatic and unidentified infections may surge. These results could help guide the level of government intervention and prevention strategy formulation.
InCHARGE: Co-creating, implementing and evaluating interventions to utilize nurses’ competence and achieve person-centred fundamental care—A research protocol describing an action research approach
Authors: Hauffman Anna , Björk Elin , Edfeldt Katarina , Fröjd Camilla , Gunnarsson Anna-Karin , Nyholm Lena , Avallin Therese , Jangland Eva
Published: July 2024

Aim and objectives

This research protocol presents an action research project with the aim to demonstrate the value of person-centred fundamental care to nurses and nurse managers in surgical care units to encourage a far-reaching change in this direction. The objectives are to describe this process and to evaluate the effects on missed nursing care and person-centred fundamental care.

Methods

In a novel collaboration between nursing science and medical humanities the action research design will be used to interact with nursing staff and leaders in three surgical care units and design interventions with the purpose to affect the direction of nursing. Initially, the care units will be presented with interactive workshops including evidence-based education on person-centered fundamental care, person-centredness, nurse role responsibility and leadership. This will be followed by cocreation of interventions to stimulate person-centered fundamental care. The Fundamentals of Care framework will be used as the overarching theoretical framework. Data on missed nursing care, person-centred climate and person-centered fundamental care will be collected repeatedly from patient- and nursing stakeholders through interviews and validated questionnaires. Additionally, data from written reflections following clinical observations and focus group interviews will be included. The duration of the study will be approximately five years from ethical approval.

Discussion

It has been previously reported that the current working environments of registered nurses are forcing them to ration their caring responsibilities, leading to a lack of fulfillment of patients’ fundamental care needs, with possible severe consequences for patients. The action research design helps researchers gain an understanding of the contextual factors important for forthcoming interventions, enabling reflective processes and cocreation of interventions with stakeholders. This may lead to feasible interventions and strengthen nursing leadership in the involved units.
A deep neural network prediction method for diabetes based on Kendall’s correlation coefficient and attention mechanism
Authors: Qi Xiaobo , Lu Yachen , Shi Ying , Qi Hui , Ren Lifang
Published: July 2024

Diabetes is a chronic disease, which is characterized by abnormally high blood sugar levels. It may affect various organs and tissues, and even lead to life-threatening complications. Accurate prediction of diabetes can significantly reduce its incidence. However, the current prediction methods struggle to accurately capture the essential characteristics of nonlinear data, and the black-box nature of these methods hampers its clinical application. To address these challenges, we propose KCCAM_DNN, a diabetes prediction method that integrates Kendall’s correlation coefficient and an attention mechanism within a deep neural network. In the KCCAM_DNN, Kendall’s correlation coefficient is initially employed for feature selection, which effectively filters out key features influencing diabetes prediction. For missing values in the data, polynomial regression is utilized for imputation, ensuring data completeness. Subsequently, we construct a deep neural network (KCCAM_DNN) based on the self-attention mechanism, which assigns greater weight to crucial features affecting diabetes and enhances the model’s predictive performance. Finally, we employ the SHAP model to analyze the impact of each feature on diabetes prediction, augmenting the model’s interpretability. Experimental results show that KCCAM_DNN exhibits superior performance on both PIMA Indian and LMCH diabetes datasets, achieving test accuracies of 99.090% and 99.333%, respectively, approximately 2% higher than the best existing method. These results suggest that KCCAM_DNN is proficient in diabetes prediction, providing a foundation for informed decision-making in the diagnosis and prevention of diabetes.

This paper presents research on the assessment of the radioecological state of plant cover surrounding two research reactor facilities located within the Semipalatinsk Test Site (STS) as examples of nuclear fuel cycle facilities (NFC). Source data on the concentrations of artificial radionuclides in the plant cover were obtained. Quantitative values for 137Cs, 241Am, and 239+240Pu activity concentrations were determined in plants across the perimeters of the facilities, indicating that these compounds may be present in the associated media from the perspective of accumulative bioindication. The values determined for artificial radionuclides in the ‘soil‒plant’ system around the researched NFC facilities were attributed to radioactive contamination of the STS territory.
Paratraducción: la noción clave para traducir la multimodalidad
Authors: Yuste Frías José , Ferreiro Vázquez Óscar
Published: July 2024

Fiel a su tendencia ancestral al logocentrismo, la traductología tradicional ha focalizado casi exclusivamente en el texto tanto la pedagogía de la traducción como la teoría de la traducción, creyendo erróneamente que el traductor sólo debe ocuparse del material esencialmente lingüístico del texto. Esto ha supuesto que, durante décadas, se haya dejado de lado la paratextualidad en traductología a pesar de que está omnipresente no sólo en la edición de los textos, desde la invención de la imprenta, sino en todas las producciones editadas en pantalla hoy en día. En la era digital de la comunicación multimodal la paratextualidad ofrece un rico abanico de recursos semióticos que contribuyen a la construcción del sentido que hay que traducir. Por consiguiente, es evidente que la paratextualidad resulta ser esencial en la comunicación multimodal. Dado que la multimodalidad es el estado normal de comunicación humana, seguir considerando que la traducción sólo puede ocuparse del texto verbal escrito, supone una aproximación monomodal a los actuales encargos de traducción abocada al mayor de los fracasos en el mercado profesional de la era digital. La presente publicación es una reflexión sobre cómo el término traductológico de paratraducción, creado en la Escuela de Vigo, resulta ser la noción clave totalmente indispensable para traducir la multimodalidad en todas sus manifestaciones, tanto en papel como en pantalla. Porque paratraducir es traducir más allá de lo verbal, siguiendo el cambio de paradigma propugnado por el Grupo de investigación Traducción & Paratraducción (T&P) de la Universidade de Vigo, el traductor, primer agente paratraductor por antonomasia, puede plantearse, muy seriamente, que las nuevas producciones paratextuales presentes en los actuales encargos de traducción multimodal en papel y en pantalla exigen una nueva forma de traducir: la paratraducción. Esta publicación insiste también en cómo la suma importancia paratextual de la especificidad de la imagen y todo lo que implica en la comunicación visual contemporánea, es decir, la preponderancia de lo no verbal frente a lo verbal, impone inexorablemente la necesidad de una sólida formación universitaria en la «lectura», interpretación y paratraducción de la imagen en traducción multimodal. Hacia el final de la publicación se ofrece una sucinta presentación de los tres niveles de aplicación metodológica de la noción de paratraducción para traducir la multimodalidad en el siglo XXI.
La terminología y los culturemas del vinagre Denominación de Origen Protegida Montilla-Moriles: la ficha técnica
Authors: Morales-Jimenez Juan Pedro
Published: July 2024

La fabricación de artículos de calidad está influyendo en la variedad de productos que las bodegas o cooperativas de la industria vitivinícola crean. De igual manera, las líneas de investigación se están orientado a nuevos campos como el enoturismo o el vinagre. Debido a la falta de estudios en torno a este último elemento y a la relevancia que están cobrando los vinagres con sello de calidad diferenciada a nivel nacional e internacional, hemos optado por seleccionar el vinagre amparado por una Denominación de Origen Protegida (DOP). En particular, escogimos la DOP Montilla-Moriles por la riqueza léxica con la que cuenta la región comprendida. Mediante un corpus elaborado con un texto creado por expertos, la ficha técnica, nos propusimos el objetivo de determinar su grado de especialización, describir el género textual, extraer los términos presentes gracias a Sketch Engine y analizarlos mediante la fuente terminológica ENOTERM. Asimismo, tomamos el corpus como medio para conocer los campos temáticos de los que se nutren los textos y seleccionar los culturemas que aportan carga cultural de la comarca cordobesa o de Andalucía. En primer lugar, para medir el grado de especialización, analizamos factores claves como el emisor, el receptor, el contexto, la temática y el índice de densidad terminológica. Dicho índice, junto a los cálculos realizados para delimitar qué relevancia tiene cada campo temático dentro de la ficha técnica, nos aporta unos resultados cuantitativos. Las primeras cifras confirman la especialización del género, el cual se engloba dentro de la lengua de la vid y el vino. El resto de los datos determinan que predomina la nota de cata (con una amplia gama de léxico común que ha adquirido un valor especializado) seguido de unidades léxicas especializadas relacionadas con la elaboración y la región. En lo concerniente a los resultados cualitativos, hemos generado un glosario contrastado y categorizado cuyo objetivo final es nutrir la fuente ENOTERM en aquellos casos que no aparecen por ser propios del vinagre. Los culturemas presentes en los textos carecen de propuesta de traducción por parte de las bodegas en la mayoría de los casos, lo que dificulta una comprensión por parte del cliente extranjero. En conclusión, la ficha técnica del vinagre es un género textual especializado con una riqueza de términos interdisciplinares y con una presencia de culturemas, matiz diferenciador frente a otros productos, que requieren una mayor atención y una documentación más allá de las fuentes lexicográficas y terminológicas.
Textos multimodales en joyería: estudio del significado de los elementos visuales en revistas especializadas
Authors: Policastro Ponce Gisella
Published: July 2024

El presente estudio tiene por objeto explorar la interconexión de elementos visuales y discursivos en el lenguaje de la joyería, como componentes intrínsecos de un discurso semiótico y multimodal que comunica significados culturalmente arraigados. Por tanto, la hipótesis central parte de la intersección de la semiótica discursiva (Kress et al. 2000) a través de la expresión plástica del lenguaje de la joyería (Acaso 2011). La investigación busca desentrañar los significados codificados en los textos multimodales en joyería, revelando cómo estos elementos forman un “paisaje semiótico” (Jaworski y Thurlow 2010) que comunica, a través de símbolos y formas, una rica narrativa cultural. Desde un enfoque semiótico-discursivo, pretendemos dar un paso más en el estudio del lenguaje de la joyería, a penas abordado desde la literatura científica dentro del ámbito lingüístico. Nuestro objetivo principal se centra en estudiar cómo funciona la producción y recepción de significados en el contexto de la comunicación, es decir, buscamos comprender cómo los elementos semióticos son utilizados en el discurso de la joyería para construir significados y cómo estos son interpretados por los receptores, y el efecto que generan en una cultura determinada. Con el fin de aplicar esta propuesta a un contexto real, se ha llevado a cabo la compilación de un subcorpus extraído de una revista de divulgación del ámbito joyero de reconocido prestigio. Para la metodología de análisis de los elementos extraídos del corpus, hemos diseñado una propuesta de elaboración propia basada en los postulados de Acaso (2011) y su estudio sobre el lenguaje visual, aplicado al ámbito de la joyería. Por último, la aplicabilidad práctica de este trabajo pretende contribuir al campo de la semiótica aplicado al lenguaje de la joyería con la expectativa de que esta metodología sea efectiva para tal fin y, además, proporcione pautas esenciales para los traductores del sector joyero.
La variación lingüística en árabe y su incidencia en la traducción especializada del ámbito de la joyería y la orfebrería
Authors: Mahyub Rayaa Bachir
Published: July 2024

La traducción especializada constituye un campo de estudio intrincado que va más allá de la mera transposición de palabras entre dos lenguas. En este contexto, la variación lingüística y sus peculiaridades (diatópicas, diastráticas, diafásicas, terminológicas, alternancia de códigos, etc.) adquiere un papel fundamental, especialmente cuando se aborda la traducción del español al árabe en un ámbito específico como es el de la joyería y orfebrería. Este artículo examina críticamente la interacción entre la variación en lengua árabe, la traducción especializada español-árabe y el trasvase de terminología del ámbito de la joyería-orfebrería al árabe. La investigación se sitúa en la confluencia de la traducción técnica y los estudios sociolingüísticos, destacando la importancia de abordar las diferencias geográficas, sociolingüísticas y socioculturales que influyen en la interpretación y recepción de los mensajes traducidos en el ámbito de la joyería. El análisis se basa en un corpus de 25 fichas terminológicas multimodales sobre joyería y orfebrería en español y sus equivalentes traducidos al árabe en el marco del proyecto FEDER I+D+i “BIJOULEX: Creación de una herramienta terminológica multilingüe (español, francés, inglés, italiano y árabe) y multimodal para el sector de la joyería, la orfebrería y su internacionalización”. Se busca identificar patrones específicos de variación en lengua árabe que puedan afectar al proceso de acuñación terminológica, a las estrategias de traducción de conceptos especializados o a la equivalencia cultural y técnica en la transferencia de conocimientos sobre joyería del español al árabe. Del análisis y discusión de los aspectos encontrados durante este proceso de traducción contrastiva se coligen conclusiones y recomendaciones de interés para el área de la traducción especializada español-árabe. Entre otros aspectos, se revela la complejidad de la traducción especializada en este dominio, en el que escasean en árabe las fuentes de consulta terminológica, pero donde la precisión técnica se entrelaza con las sutilezas culturales asociadas con la joyería-orfebrería. Se argumenta que una comprensión más profunda de las variaciones lingüísticas en árabe permitirá adecuar las estrategias de traducción empleadas en este ámbito de especialidad y transmitir el conocimiento intrínseco al mensaje original, teniendo en cuenta las peculiaridades lingüísticas del receptor árabe, al tiempo que se preserva no solo el significado léxico sino también las connotaciones culturales, terminológicas y estilísticas de este ámbito.

Guerra Rusia-Ucrania. Difuminando los límites de las noticias: actualidad a través de perfiles en TikTok
Authors: García-Jiménez Antonio , Suárez-Álvarez Rebeca , Catalina-García Beatriz
Published: July 2024

TikTok se ha convertido en un canal en el que la guerra de Rusia y Ucrania se retransmite casi en directo. La lógica de las redes sociales se hibrida con la lógica de los medios para ofrecer a los usuarios contenidos informativos que traspasan los límites de los medios tradicionales. Se estudia la evolución de la construcción y consumo de los vídeos sobre hechos de actualidad en TikTok. Se investigan los géneros periodísticos, los elementos audiovisuales y su finalidad en los vídeos publicados por perfiles anónimos, influencers, medios de comunicación y periodistas verificados en TikTok. Mediante análisis de contenido se decodifican 415 vídeos sobre la guerra entre ambos países durante 40 días (24/2/2022/5.04.2022). Se confirma que los perfiles anónimos e influencers se están apropiando de los géneros de los medios de comunicación tradicionales, y que los periodistas se están adaptando a los formatos propios de las redes sociales. El interés de la audiencia se centra en vídeos que no combinan elementos audiovisuales, sino que se decantan por vídeos con música sólo o sólo voz. En la finalidad no se detecta la hibridación de lógica de los medios de comunicación, por la falta de pluralidad y por el elevado uso de la emotividad, empleada principalmente por los influencers, y que es la que despierta más interés en la audiencia.

La principal hipótesis de este estudio enuncia que los newsgames son una herramienta de innovación sostenible que puede ayudar a enmendar problemas sociales. Teniendo en cuenta este postulado, el objetivo principal de la investigación se centra en analizar el potencial de los newsgames para alfabetizar a los jóvenes sobre el fenómeno de la desinformación, ya que este desorden informativo es uno de los mayores peligros a los que se enfrentan las sociedades contemporáneas. Para ello, se ha diseñado una herramienta para el análisis de contenido de n=8 newsgames, con un enfoque cualitativo y cuantitativo. Los resultados obtenidos permiten concluir que los newsgames abordan temas relacionados con las demandas recogidas por la ONU –concretamente, en el ODS 10 de la Agenda 2030– y abren nuevos horizontes relacionados con la sostenibilidad social, la justicia social, la integración, la accesibilidad y la inclusividad. Estas narrativas tienen el potencial para prevenir situaciones de injusticia o desigualdad, ya que exponen al jugador a experiencias no deseadas. Aunque el enfoque lúdico predomina en estos videojuegos, su componente narrativo proporciona representaciones de mundos posibles que se asemejan mucho a la realidad y su fenomenología. Si bien estos elementos se presentan más desde una óptica de crítica y sátira, que de ejemplificación y defensa de principios periodísticos, pueden cumplir un papel de concienciación y plantear rutas de aprendizaje sobre buenas prácticas periodísticas, específicamente, sobre la verificación de hechos.
Auge y declive del vídeo 360 grados: evolución y características de la producción inmersiva en los medios de servicio público europeos (2015-2023)
Authors: Pérez-Seijo Sara
Published: July 2024

Sería en torno al año 2015 cuando las redacciones periodísticas comenzarían a explorar el potencial que el vídeo 360 grados podría ofrecer para narrar y representar la realidad noticiosa. Comienza así una etapa de experimentación inmersiva a nivel global, en la que los medios de comunicación tratan de investigar las posibilidades del formato desde el punto de vista de la narrativa y de la experiencia del usuario. Los medios de servicio público europeos no se han mantenido al margen y han abrazado también esta forma de producir contenido comúnmente denominada como periodismo inmersivo. En concreto, este estudio examina la producción de contenido de no ficción con vídeo 360 grados en las radiotelevisiones públicas europeas entre los años 2015 y 2023 (N = 814). La investigación parte de tres objetivos principales: examinar la evolución de la creación de piezas esféricas, extraer sus características formales y analizar el rol del usuario en la escena envolvente. Se aplica un enfoque metodológico mixto basado en el análisis de contenido y en la entrevista semiestructurada en profundidad. Los resultados del estudio permiten concluir que a partir del 2019 se produce una paulatina pérdida de interés en el formato, favorecida por la complejidad de sus sostenibilidad. Este declive se acentuaría en paralelo a la irrupción de la pandemia de la COVID-19. Por otro lado, los contenidos producidos destacan por ser breves, simples en términos multimedia y no ajustarse a las especificidades que tanto el lenguaje inmersivo como la narrativa espacial exigen.

El proyecto de Innovación ID2023/158 planteado en la Universidad de Salamanca “La internacionalización a través de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible del Máster Universitario en Profesor de Educación Secundaria Obligatoria y Bachillerato, Formación Profesional y Enseñanza de Idiomas (MUPES)” ha dado como resultado este libro, cuyas propuestas han sido expuestas en el curso del IUCE de Formación Específica para profesores del MUPES celebrado los días 4 y 5 de julio de 2024. El objetivo del Proyecto de Innovación, del curso y de este libro es promover en los estudiantes del Máster el aprendizaje integral y la adquisición de competencias clave. En cada uno de los capítulos del libro se plantean proyectos atractivos con metodologías y recursos didácticos innovadores. Estas propuestas están diseñadas para generar un cambio en las actitudes y comportamientos de los estudiantes, promoviendo la conciencia social, el crecimiento económico, la paz, la no discriminación, la protección del medio ambiente y, en general, capacitar, concienciar y sensibilizar a los estudiantes sobre los ODS y sobre los desafíos globales del mundo en el que vivimos. Los 17 Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible, los ODS y sus metas, fueron planteados por las Naciones Unidas en 2015 y constituyen una agenda universal para el desarrollo sostenible “de las personas, por las personas y para las personas”. Se pretende que estas propuestas recogidas en este libro sirvan como ejemplo para otras instituciones educativas en la implementación de proyectos similares.
Beyond the school building: Examining the association between out-of-school factors and multidimensional school grades
Authors: Burrell Nandrea , Harbatkin Erica

Many states report school performance grades as a way to inform the public about school quality. However, past research has shown that when these grades drew largely on proficiency-based measures, they served to capture variation in school and community demographics rather than school quality. We extend this literature by examining whether a multidimensional measure of school quality such as those required under the Every Student Succeeds Act is less confounded by out-of-school factors than the proficiency measures that characterized previous generations of accountability. Drawing on school accountability grades from Florida combined with school and community demographic data, we find that more than half the variation in multidimensional measures of school quality can be explained by observable school- and county-level factors outside the school’s locus of control. Together, our findings show that even school grades that draw on multiple measures misattribute the contribution of demographics and socioeconomics to school quality—but subcomponents based on learning gains perform better than those based on proficiency. We conclude with policy implications and recommend that states focus public reporting on school quality measures driven less by out-of-school factors and more by the school’s true contribution to student outcomes.

Celery mosaic virus (CeMV), member of genus Potyvirus, is reported for the first time in Indonesia, from celery plants (Apium graveolens) in a vegetable field at Berastagi, North Sumatera Province. The plants possessed mosaic and vein clearing symptoms on the leaves as typical of CeMV infection. Virus incidence was confirmed by RT-PCR using degenerate potyvirus primer which amplified partial coat protein and 3’-UTR of the viral genome. Phylogenetic tree analysis placed Indonesian CeMV isolates in one separated clade within CeMV group and shared 96.5%–96.7% nucleotide identity with exemplar isolate of CeMV.

The option value has a nonlinear dependence relationship on risk factors existing in the capital market. Therefore, this paper considered utilizing Delta Gamma (Theta) Normal Approximation (DGTNA) as a nonlinear approach to determine the change of profit/loss of a European call option to assess the option risk. The method uses the second order of Taylor Polynomial around the stock price underlying the option to approximate the option profit/loss, which is crucial to construct the VaR based on DGTNA. VaR based on DGTNA also considered three Greeks, namely Delta, Gamma, and Theta, known as sensitivity measures in option. This research applied VaR based on DGTN approximation to analyze the European call option of Apple Inc (AAPL) and Barrick Gold Corporation (GOLD) for several strike prices. The performance of DGTN VaR analyzed by Kupiec Backtesting summarized that in this case, DGTN VaR provides the best risk assessment over different confidence levels (80, 90, 95, and 99 percent) compared to Delta Normal VaR and Delta Gamma Normal VaR.

Published: July 2024

Banana is an important fruit crops of the family Musaceae. Tissue culture multiplication of banana is now popular and preferred due to faster multiplication, uniformly and cost-effective production of healthy planting materials. The following work was take on to study the result of various concentrations of auxin (indole-3-butyric acid-IBA). Shoots derived from sucker explants after a series of multiplication (4 to 5), regenerated plants having 4.5 cm length were dissected out and rooted in different concentrations of auxin (IBA) (0.5 to 3.5 mg/L). Root production was started after 10 days of culture and the data taken after 20 days. From all the treatment tested all media concentrations produce roots at varied level with in a period of 15-20 days of culture. Media having concentrations of IBA were used to induce in vitro rooting in plantlets of Musa cv. Nendran after six sub cultures including elongation. The elongated shoots harvested from culture bottles were transferred to MS solid media supplemented with auxin IBA at varied concentrations. The root induction rate varied from one media concentration to another. The present study revealed that IBA (1.0 mg/L) was found to be most applicable hormone for root induction in sucker shoot tip explants of Musa cv. Nendran.
