Objetivo: Descrever a epidemiologia da sífilis congênita e em gestante de 2008 a 2017 no Estado do Pará e associar as variáveis que influenciaram no processo de transmissão. Métodos: Estudo epidemiológico, descritivo e retrospectivo realizado com dados do Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação registrados no Estado do Pará, entre os anos de 2008 a 2017. Foram incluídas as variáveis conforme as informações contidas na ficha de notificação. Para analise usou-se medidas de frequências absolutas, relativas e a associação das características maternas e a infecção congênita pelo teste X². Resultados: A maioria das gestantes haviam realizado pré-natal, porém obtiveram o diagnóstico somente no momento do parto/curetagem; os tratamentos foram considerados inadequados. Entre os recém-nascidos a maioria (74,42%) tinha exames de sangue periférico reagentes, os exames no líquor e raio-x de ossos longos não foram realizados em boa parte; a incidência no período aumentou 183,93% e as variáveis maternas, escolaridade e tratamento realizado, apresentaram associação significativa com a elevação dos casos. Conclusão: O aumento da incidência de sífilis congênita pode ser um indicador de falhas na atenção ao pré-natal, sendo a situação indicativa da necessidade de implantação de novas medidas para reduzir os casos de sífilis congênita.
TERRITORIAL DIFFERENTIATION OF RISK FACTORS FOR THE HEALTH OF THE POPULATION OF THE RUSSIAN FAR EAST
Authors: Изергина Е.В.
Published: July 2023

Поведенческие и биологические факторы риска с повышенными уровнями показателей (курение, нездоровое питание, низкая физическая активность, избыточное потребление алкоголя, хроническое психоэмоциональное напряжение, высокие уровни гипертензии и глюкозы в крови) влияют на состояние здоровья населения (заболевания пищеварения; дыхательной, эндокринной и сердечно-сосудистой систем). Эти заболевания возникают при нездоровом образе жизни, снижая не только качество жизни, но и иммунитет населения. Это – управляемые внешние факторы, регулирование которых по-разному отражается на уровне здоровья населения различных территорий региона. Определение факторов риска, совместно с медицинской коррекцией нарушения обмена веществ входит в состав «первичной профилактики» заболеваний. В регионах Дальнего Востока России, где повышен уровень этих заболеваний (Арктические районы, Еврейская автономная область, Амурский край), также повышается заболеваемость инфекционными заболеваниями, в частности, Covid-19.

Behavioral and biological risk factors with elevated levels of indicators (smoking, unhealthy diet, low physical activity, excessive alcohol consumption, chronic psycho-emotional stress, high levels of hypertension and glucose in the blood) affect the health of the population (digestive diseases; respiratory, endocrine and cardiovascular systems). These diseases occur with an unhealthy lifestyle, reducing not only the quality of life, but also the immunity of the population. These are controlled external factors, the regulation of which affects the health level of the population of different territories of the region in different ways. The determination of risk factors, together with the medical correction of metabolic disorders, is part of the «primary prevention» of diseases. In the regions of the Russian Far East where the level of these diseases is increased (the Arctic regions, the Jewish Autonomous Region, the Amur Region), the incidence of infectious diseases, in particular Covid-19, is also increasing.
IDENTIFICATION OF CONTROL OBJECTS IN THE PRESENCE OF HIDDEN (LATENT) VARIABLES

Published: July 2023

Рассматривается задача идентификации сложных технологических объектов, характеризующихся наличием различных неконтролируемых возмущений, высоким уровнем помех, неполнотой сведений о характере протекающих в них процессов. В такой ситуации, как правило, не удается построить адекватную работоспособную математическую модель объекта. Одной из возможных причин этого является наличие ранее неизученного влияния со стороны, так называемых, скрытых или латентных переменных. Предлагается для выявления их наличия и свойств использовать автоассоциативные искусственные нейронные сети (АИНС). С помощью имитационного эксперимента показана эффективность такого подхода, обеспечивающего в конечном итоге оптимизацию системы управления технологическим объектом.

The problem of identifying complex technological objects characterized by thepresence of various uncontrolled disturbances, a high level of interference, and incomplete information about the nature of the processes occurring in them is considered. In such a situation, as a rule, it is not possible to build an adequate workable mathematical model of the object. One of the possible reasons for this is the presence of a previously unexplored influence from the so-called hidden or latent variables. It is proposed to use auto-associative artificial neural networks (ANN) to identify their presence and properties. With the help of a simulation experiment, the effectiveness of this approach is shown, which ultimately ensures the optimization of the control system of a technological object.

A szerzők az 58 éves csökkent bal kamrai ejekciós frakcióval járó szívelégtelenség (HFrEF) és noniszkémiás dilatatív cardiomyopathia (DCM) miatt gondozott, hipertóniás nőbetegnél EHRA3 fokú panaszokat okozó perzisztens pitvarfibrilláció (PF) miatt pulmonalis vénaizoláció (PVI) elvégzését terveztük. A beteg CHA2DS2-VASc pontszám alapján becsült magas stroke-rizikó miatt 2×5 mg apixabanterápiában részesült a PF diagnózisának felállítása óta, a beavatkozás előtti 4 hétben gyógyszerbevételt nem mulasztott el, a tervezett beavatkozás reggelén esedékes apixaban kihagyásra került. A klinikánkon alkalmazott protokoll szerint a PVI kezdetén aktuálisan is pitvarfibrilláló beteg bal pitvari fülcséjének vizsgálatát intrakardiális echokardiográfia (ICE) segítségével ellenőriztük a transseptalis punkciót megelőzően, amelynek során 2×1,5 cm-es fülcsethrombust igazoltunk, így a PVI elvégzésétől eltekintettünk. Esetbemutatásunk rávilágít arra, hogy aktuálisan is zajló PF mellett végzett PVI előtt megszakítás nélküli, tartós orális antikoagulánst szedő betegek esetén is érdemes kizárni a bal pitvari fülcsethrombus jelenlétét, amelyre a transoesophagialis ultrahang (TEE) és szív-CT-vizsgálatok mellett az ICE is alkalmas lehet.
Using ML to repurpose FDA drugs for the treatment of Diabetic Cardiomyopathy
Authors: Aravind Vishnu , Kumar Alex
Published: July 2023

PARP-1 (Poly ADP Ribose polymerase) functions to repair damage to DNA and is implicated in a variety of diseases including Diabetic Cardiomyopathy (DCM). Unfortunately, there are few treatments for this disease, and the expenses associated with these drugs present barriers to many. With this project, we developed a neural network that was able to distinguish between inhibitors and non-inhibitors of PARP-1 in order to uncover more accessible treatments of DCM. We collected confirmed inhibitors of PARP-1 from PubChem, clustered these compounds, and performed attribute selection. This data was used to develop the neural network which was able to predict inhibitors of PARP-1 with an accuracy of 97% and an AUROC of 0.98. The model was then run on all FDA drugs, and the top 37 predictions were taken. In protein ligand docking simulations, the predicted inhibitors had a significantly better binding affinity for PARP-1 than the control group.
A Genetic Algorithm for Automated Parameterization of Network Hamiltonian Models of Amyloid Fibril Formation
Authors: Grazioli Gianmarc , Tao Andy , Bhatia Inika , Regan Patrick
Published: July 2023

The timescales of long-time atomistic molecular dynamics simulations are typically reported in microseconds, while the timescales for experiments studying the kinetics of amyloid fibril formation are typically reported in minutes or hours. This timescale deficit of roughly 9 orders of magnitude presents a major challenge in the design of computer simulation methods for studying protein aggregation events. Thus, coarse-grained molecular simulations of amyloid fibril formation are crucial for understanding the molecular mechanism behind the formation of these structures, which are implicated in diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and Type II diabetes. Network Hamiltonian simulations of aggregation are centered around a Hamiltonian function that returns the total energy of a system of aggregating proteins, given the graph structure of the system as input. In the graph, or network, representation of the system, each protein molecule is represented as a node, and non-covalent bonds between proteins are represented as edges. The parameter, i.e. a set of coefficients that determine the degree to which each topological degree of freedom is favored or disfavored, must be determined for each network Hamiltonian model, and is a well-known technical challenge. Here, a type of artificial intelligence (AI) called a genetic algorithm is introduced for autonomously parameterizing network Hamiltonian models, whereby an initial set of randomly parameterized models, typically of low fibril yield (e.g. < 5 %), is used to initiate the evolution of subsequent model generations, ultimately leading to high fibril yield models (e.g. > 70 %). The methodology is also demonstrated by applying it to optimizing previously published network Hamiltonian models for the 5 key amyloid fibril topologies that have been reported in the Protein Data Bank (PDB), and showing that the models generated by the AI produce fibril yields that surpass or match previously published fibril yields in all cases. The authors also aim to encourage more widespread use of the network Hamiltonian methodology by introducing a free open-source implementation of the genetic algorithm for fitting network Hamiltonian models to other self-assembling systems.

Published: July 2023

Dendrophthoe pentandra (Loranthaceae) is a semi-parasitic plant with several diverse metabolites and biological activities and is widely used in traditional medicine. This study aims to evaluate the gastroprotective effectiveness of the ethanol extract of D. pentandra leaves in animals induced by an acute peptic ulcer with absolute ethanol. The gastroprotective effect of the extract (100, 250 and 500 mg/kg doses) was evaluated through ulcer index parameters, physicochemical properties of gastric fluid, and histopathological analysis. The study results of the study showed that the ethanol extract of D. pentandra leaves at a dose of 500 mg/kg could provide a protective effect equivalent to omeprazole. Histopathological analysis proved the improvement of the mucous membrane structure in the animals pre-treated with the extract. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that the ethanol extract of D. pentandra leaves is effective as an anti-ulcer drug, so it is feasible to be developed as a gastroprotective from herbal.

Published: July 2023

Although there is proliferating literature on STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) education, studies on the impact of socio-economic status (SES) on STEM education are limited in developing countries. Studies on STEM education in Malaysia has largely involved the teaching and learning aspect while there are limited studies in other areas. This study investigates the possible relationships between socio-economic factors and Malaysian students’ academic achievement in STEM subjects. Data was collected from students in the higher learning institutions located in five different regions in Malaysia using a survey questionnaire. Cross-tabulations were made between the construct of SES and students’ academic achievement, and analyses for Chi-Square tests for associations were carried out using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). Results of this study show that there are statistically significant positive associations between students’ grades in engineering and their fathers’ education, between students’ grades in science and their mothers’ education, and between students’ grades in science and their parents’ combined income. Moreover, there are statistically significant and positive associations between students’ grades in mathematics and parents’ education, occupation and combined income. Future studies can identify the reasons for these associations and how Malaysian students’ declining academic performance in international assessments can be improved by improving STEM education.

AbstractThis article aims to describe the use of the Reggio Emilia approach in learning based on kinesthetic intelligence. This research is based on the lack of a learning approach in schools so that kinesthetic intelligence stimulation is only done with simple activities such as gymnastics. The method used in this article uses the library research method or the library method with data collection techniques based on sources such as books, articles and others that are inseparable from the context of the core problem. In this study, the kinesthetic intelligence-based Reggio Emilia learning approach was designed using two class models, namely the ateliarista class and the clay class. The atelierista class is an art class to provide opportunities for children to carry out creative activities as freely as possible according to imagination or it can also be ordered by the educator. While the clay class is a clay class where children can form a work based on the learning theme that is being carried out. With the Reggio Emilia approach, this research might be used as a learning option in developing kinesthetic intelligence in early childhood. Keywords: Kinesthetic intelligence; reggio emillia approach.AbstrakArtikel ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan penggunaan pendekatan Reggio Emilia dalam pembelajaran berbasis kecerdasan kinestetik. Penelitian ini didasarkan oleh kurangnya pendekatan pembelajaran di sekolah sehingga stimulasi kecerdasan kinestetik hanya dilakukan dengan kegiatan sederhana seperti senam. Metode yang digunakan dalam artikel ini menggunakan metode library research atau metode kepustakaan dengan teknik pengumpulan data berdasarkan sumber seperti buku, artikel dan lain-lain yang tidak terlepas dari konteks inti masalah. Pada penelitian ini pendekatan pembelajaran Reggio Emilia berbasis kecerdasan kinestetik dirancang dengan menggunakan dua model kelas yaitu kelas ateliarista dan kelas lempung. Kelas ateliarista merupakan kelas seni untuk memberikan kesempatan kepada anak untuk melakukan kegiatan kreatif sebebas mungkin sesuai imajinasi atau bisa juga atas perintah pendidik. Sedangkan kelas clay adalah kelas clay dimana anak dapat membentuk sebuah karya berdasarkan tema pembelajaran yang sedang dilaksanakan. Dengan pendekatan Reggio Emilia, penelitian ini mungkin dapat dijadikan salah satu pilihan pembelajaran dalam mengembangkan kecerdasan kinestetik pada anak usia dini.Kata kunci: Kecerdasan kinestetik; pendekatan reggio emillia.

THE GOLDEN DISH AND FISH LAUGH. AN ESSAY IN SEMANTIC ANALYSIS OF MOTIFS
Authors:   Russian State University for the Humanities, Neklyudov Sergei Yu.
Published: July 2023

The article describes the semantics of the motif, its internal structure, textual manifestations and distribution, as well as the ‘network’ of intermotif connections. The analysis focuses on several plot types, variously correlated: Prophetic / Untold dream / Animal language (AaTh 671 E*; 725; 517, 670, 672, 672D*, 673, 781; Mot. M312.2 sq.; D217; M312.0.2), The Taming of the Bride (AaTh 519, cf. 516), Victory of the Weak (AaTh 480C*, 565, 613, 735A, 930, 1535; SUS -813A**; Berezk., K27nn, K88) and on some other stories associated with these ones. The motifs that are included in this group usually have a binary or ternary structure. The elements of such structure are dispersed through the tale; they are separated by narrative fragments that are filled with other events and adventures. The performed analysis makes it possible to systematize motifs and their structural elements as follows: 1) minimal meaningful (but not meaning-forming) differential features of plot composites (semes of ‘narrative grammar’), which are not further divided at the plot level; 2) ‘simple’ motifs; they can be considered as a set of semes, which, thanks to the connections established between them, acquire meaning-forming functions and structure the motif as a kind of narrative semanteme; 3) ‘complex’ motifs that have a binary or ternary structure, the elements of which are dispersed throughout the tale text (however, the boundary between ‘simple’ and ‘complex’ motifs is rather arbitrary). The structure of a motif is adequately characterized as a frame, the slots of which, determined by their facet values, can be filled with both semes (in ‘simple’ motifs, but not only in them) and semanthemes (in complex motifs). Thus, inter-motif connections turn out to be either hierarchical (a motif embedded in a motif, a ‘nested doll’ principle), or networked (the same semes fill the slots of different motifs, linking these motifs through ‘semantic channels’; the latter has far-reaching consequences for the generative mechanisms of the tradition). Finally, it is expedient to consider slots that contain the ‘programs’ themselves, according to which logical relationships are established between the components of the motif, as slots designed for special ‘procedural’ (rather than ‘substantial’) filling.
“GRAB IL’INSKY MEAT”. FROM RITUAL REALITY TO THE LEGEND MOTIF
Authors:   Komi Scientific Center, Uralic Branch, Russian Academy of Sciences”, Lobanova Lyudmila S.
Published: July 2023

The article considers a special ritual behavior – grabbing meat, which was an integral part of the animal sacrifice rite on Elijah’s Day of the village Noshul of Priluzsky district of the Komi Republic until the 1930s, and also determines the role of the “grabbing meat” motif in the modern oral local tradition. Based on an analysis of ethnographic materials, it was revealed that grabbing meat was a kind of ritual element of summer vow holidays with the sacrifice of animals not only in the village Noshul, but also in certain areas of Karelians and Northern Russians. Considering it in a number of other unusual ways of distributing sacrificial meat, such as throwing it from the roof of a building and issuing it through a church fence, makes it possible to compare ritual behavior with fights and fist battles of rural patronal holidays. Grabbing meat adds to the ritual of sacrificing an animal “strangeness”, “casus”, so that information about the sacrifice is preserved in oral tradition. The analysis of the content and form of oral stories recorded during the folklore and ethnographic expedition in 2006 allows the author to conclude that the collective memory retains not the story of the sacrifice on Elijah’s Day, but a fixed expression – “grab Elijah’s Day meat”, which becomes the plot-forming motif of narratives about Elijah’s Day. The language form of expression provides a relationship with Elijah’s Day and leads to annual updating, which creates the conditions for the motif preservation and translation in the local oral tradition.
FOLK MODELS IN STORIES ABOUT THE OCCUPATION DURING THE GREAT PATRIOTIC WAR. NARRATIVIZATION SCENARIOS AND THE WAYS OF COMBINING MOTIFS
Authors:   Russian State University for the Humanities, Zakrevskaya Ekaterina A.
Published: July 2023

Folklorists often use classification systems such as catalogues of motifs or folk types. This method is widely applied to tales or legends. At the same time, it is used less often during analysis of stories about the recent past (for instance, about a war). I apply this method to oral stories collected on an expedition to the Bryansk region to make a motif-index. Using this method allows me to classify these texts, highlight the main themes and divide motives into two groups. I also examine how motives are combined in a longstories and, based on these combinations, I distinguish two scenarios of narrativization. There are two scenarios: incriminatory and apologetic. These two ways of combining motives allow narrators to express two different opinions on the ethical dilemmas of the wartime. The set of plots, as well as popular ways of combining them, shows us that these ethical dilemmas are most important and interesting for the people we have talked to.
Poder pastoral, acomodo y territorialidad en las Cartas Annuas jesuitas de Quito
Authors: Espinosa Carlos
Published: July 2023

Este artículo analiza las Cartas Annuas jesuitas entre 1586 y 1660 que hacen referencia a la Audiencia de Quito. Esta fuente poco consultada se utiliza para sondear las estrategias jesuitas de evangelización y el régimen de administración de sacramentos de la orden en Quito. El artículo propone que las estrategias de evangelización jesuita dieron un giro al pasar de un encuentro con la religión nativa que incluyó un interés en mitos prehispánicos y extirpación de idolatría a un enfoque tabula rasa que se centraba en la administración de sacramentos. El artículo atribuye este giro a la transferencia del Colegio jesuita de Quito de la provincia jesuita de Perú a la provincia del Nuevo Reino (Nueva Granada). El artículo contextualiza el encuentro jesuita con la cultura nativa y la operación del régimen sacramental con referencia al concepto de las dos evangelizaciones de Juan Carlos Estenssoro, la noción de poder pastoral de Michel Foucault y la idea de la confesionalización perteneciente a la historiografía de la modernidad temprana europea.

En la actualidad, esta libertad vive un proceso de transformación debido al uso masivo de las nuevas tecnologías: casi cualquier ciudadano dispone de los medios técnicos para informar a la sociedad sobre distintas cuestiones, ocupando el papel clásico de los medios de comunicación de masas. Pero ello no significa que los tradicionales requisitos de veracidad y noticiabilidad no se les deban exigir por igual. Es más, hay nuevos riesgos que afrontar, particularmente los provocados por la desinformación y sus consecuencias, que por poner en peligro el sano debate público han llevado a los Estados a tomar medidas que podrían resultar aún más perjudiciales que el mal que pretenden combatir. De ahí que para comprender este nuevo paradigma sea imprescindible estudiar las reformas normativas y las resoluciones de los principales órganos judiciales, garantes últimos de estos derechos.
The Study on the Effect of Financial Instability on Income Inequality
Authors:   Institute for Future Growth, Park Euihwan , kim Dong Heon
Published: July 2023

Although recently the research on the relationship between financial instability and income inequality got deep interest, there is little study. This paper analyses the relationship between financial instability and income inequality. The Financial Stability Index (FSI) and the Financial Vulnerability Index (FVI) are used as the measure of financial instability and the income quintile share ratio is used to measure income inequality. As the result of empirical studies, the deterioration in FCI results in an increase in income inequality whreas the worsening in FVI appears not to have an impact on income inequality contemporaneously. This result is similar in the case of the GMM estimation which considers endoneous issues due to reverse causality. In the robust analysis where sufficient lags are incorporated into the FSI and the FVI, both variables appear to increase income ineqauity. We interpret that this result is because the FSI reflects current financial instability while the FVI takes into future inancial instability in terms of mid- and long-term. This result implies that the macro-prudential policy or the policy for financial stability can be useful for improving income inequality

Published: July 2023

This study examines the impact of the largest cigarette price increase policy in Korean history in 2015 on the smoking behavior of middle-aged and elderly individuals. The smoking behavior of middle-aged and elderly individuals is important because their proportion is increasing as Korean society enters an aging society, and considering the addictive nature of smoking, the behavior of individuals with longer smoking periods may differ. To investigate this, data from the Korean Longitudinal Study of Aging (KLoSA) from the 3rd to the 6th wave were used. In order to consider the decreasing trend in smoking rates that had been occurring even before the policy implementation, regression analysis was conducted, including the pre-policy period of six years. The results showed that without considering the time trend, the smoking rate decreased by 0.5 percentage points. However, when considering the time trend, no significant decrease in smoking rate was found. Similarly, there was no significant decrease in smoking quantity due to the cigarette price increase policy.

Indonesia is a country with the largest Muslim population in the world and has extraordinary potential in the amount and assets of Islamic microfinance and can be a reference for the application of Islamic Microfinance in other countries. The purpose of this study was to review the problems in murabaha financing at Islamic Microfinance Institution (IMFI) and the treatments. The approach used was a qualitative analysis of Indonesian literature studies about the specific type of murabaha financing with content analysis and thematic analysis techniques. This study found that internal and external factors caused problematic murabaha financing in BMT. Internal factors include the inaccuracy of BMT in 5C (Character, Capacity, Capital, Collateral, and Condition), lack of supervision, procedures violations, facilities and infrastructure, and lack of human resources (HR). Meanwhile, external factors include bad customers, unexpected circumstances of customers, lack of customer income, inflation, and government policies. The actions done by the BMTs to overcome problematic murabaha financing were by implementing BMT guidelines for prospective customers, preventing and repressive supervising, applying a democratic leadership style, applying fines, rescheduling, restructuring and reconditioning write off, auction of collateral, and legal actions. This study recommends strengthening financing selection by improving human resource skills and also variations in handling murabaha financing with a humanist approach.
Domestic and International Macroeconomic Variables on Indonesian Sharia Stock Index with Vector Error Correction Model Approach
Authors: Nofrianto  , Faqih Muhammad Arif
Published: July 2023

The fluctuating movement of the Indonesian Sharia Stock Index (ISSI) is thought to be caused by domestic and international macroeconomic factors. Previous research revealed inconsistent results regarding the factors that influence ISSI price movements with the research time horizon generally in the short to medium term. This study aims to analyze and see the magnitude of the influence of domestic and international macroeconomic variables on ISSI. This study uses the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) method with monthly time series data from May 2011 to July 2022. The results of the study show that in the long-term, inflation, amount of money supply, world oil price, and Dow Jones Islamic Market US have a significant effect on ISSI. In the short term, only world gold price has a significant effect on ISSI. BI repo rate and exchange rate did not significantly affect ISSI in the short and long term. The Indonesian Sharia Stock Index reaches stability the fastest when it responds to shocks in gold prices. This study recommends the promotion of ISSI and Islamic finance, careful consideration in investment decisions by companies and investors, and the need for an early warning system in the Islamic capital market to anticipate the financial crisis.
Factors that Enhance Consumer Purchase Intention of Luxury Brand Collaboration Products
Authors:   Korean Industrial Technology Convergence Society, Ting Lian
Published: July 2023

In this study, we attempted to determine the effect of the recent trend of luxury brand collaboration product characteristics on consumer purchase intentions through brand attitude, and selected the MZ generation, the most important consumer class in this luxury brand collaboration product, as the study subject to explore the moderating effect of the MZ generation consumption value. The study results revealed that the characteristics of luxury brand products had a significant positive effect on the brand attitude and purchase intention. In addition, brand attitudes have a mediating effect in the effect of luxury brand product characteristics on purchase intentions. Notably, the higher the characteristics of luxury brand products such as originality, aesthetics, scarcity, and symbolism, the higher the purchase intention, and in this correlation, the consumer attitude toward the brand is further strengthened. Finally, examining the moderating effect of the consumption value of the MZ generation, the most important consumer group of luxury brand collaboration products, revealed that it had a significant moderating effect on the relationship between the brand attitude and the purchase intention. Therefore, if luxury brand companies actively utilize collaboration with other brands to provide high artistic designs, messages, or symbolic phrases desired by the times, they can eventually have a positive impact on the attitude and purchase intention of the brand perceived by MZ consumers.

Authors:   Korean Industrial Technology Convergence Society, Lee Hyo-Sub , Shim Ho-Seok
Published: July 2023

Interactivity is the most critical factor in the success of metaverse platforms, which can provide a unique user experience through interaction with digital avatars and engagement in a shared space. As a conversational artificial intelligence (AI) service, ChatGPT is considered a promising approach to dramatically improve the quality of interactions with computational agents on existing metaverse platforms. The ability of large language models (LLMs) to understand and respond to human communication can be expected to enable more immersive and realistic experiences. Therefore, in this study, we developed a computational model to enhance interaction with AI agents on a virtual campus on the Korea Polytechnics University metaverse platform by using ChatGPT. In future research, we plan to create an LLM with unique domain data related to Korea Polytechnic University and the National Competency Standards (NCS) along with industrial and personal data and implement the model by fine‑tuning a specially designed architecture with a pretrained framework. We plan to apply this system to the virtual Polytech Metaverse Campus for testing and monitoring. We will also perform quantitative and qualitative analyses based on advice from technical experts and the results of objective evaluations.
Analytical Study on the Inoculation Effect of Live Fowl Typhoid Vaccine (SG9R) Using National Big Data (AIMS) for 28 Years Since 1995
Authors:   Korean Industrial Technology Convergence Society, Woo Yong-Ku
Published: July 2023

After fowl typhoid (FT) incidence rapidly increased in domestic poultry farms after the late 1990s, the Korean government decided to introduce an attenuated live FT vaccine (SG9R) in 2001, despite a lack of preparation, in response to strong complaints from poultry farmers. Therefore, this study aimed to determine whether the FT-protective effect of the live vaccine (SG9R) was properly expressed in areas that were seriously contaminated with FT, such as in Korea. This study examined the protective effect of the live vaccine (SG9R) through an analysis of the changes in FT outbreaks in poultry farms across the country using national big data (AIMS) for a total of 28 years (from 1995 to early 2023). The results of the analysis of the national AIMS data over the 28-year period showed that the attenuated live FT vaccine (SG9R) was introduced with insufficient preparation but still produced a positive FT protective effect in poultry farms that were seriously contaminated with FT in Korea.

Published: July 2023

As defense science and technology advance, weapon systems are becoming faster, more agile, and equipped with stealth capabilities. Consequently, the importance of precise detection and tracking capabilities in the seeker systems of guided missiles for future battlefields is increasing. Because the development of the seeker systems of guided missiles requires a high level of technology and involves significant time and cost in research and development, countries advanced in defense technology are leading in related technologies. In the Republic of Korea, various guided missiles, such as anti-air and anti-ship missiles, have been independently developed and the related technologies are maturing. However, the development status of leading countries should be analyzed to identify any technological gaps in the capabilities of our seeker system against potential threats. In this paper, we analyze the development status of foreign seeker systems that primarily use RF, IIR, SAL, and multi-mode sensors, as well as the domestic development status of seeker systems. Furthermore, we propose developmental directions for the necessary technologies for future seeker systems of guided missiles.
