Authors: Zhu Xiaolin , Qie Ruiqing , Luo Chong , Zhang Wenqi
Published: July 2024

Wetland ecosystem service function provides and maintains the Earth’s life system, which supports human and social development. However, in recent years, with the intensification of human social activities, the wetland area in northeast China has been reduced, and wetland ecosystem service function has been damaged. This paper evaluates the ecosystem service function of wetlands in northeast China based on the InVEST model, taking 40 prefecture-level cities as the evaluation unit, calculating the carbon stock, soil retention, and habitat quality of the wetlands in the study area and analyzing the drivers of changes in ecosystem service function using the PLUS model. The following results were obtained: temporally, the wetland carbon stock decreased from 754 Tg in 2000 to 688 Tg in 2020; the wetland soil retention increased from 24,424 Tg in 2000 to 33,160 Tg in 2010, and then decreased to 28,765 Tg in 2020; and the quality of wetland habitats was roughly unchanged. The wetland habitats in the study area were categorized into 5 types, classified as I, II, III, IV, or V, and the spatial changes in the 40 prefecture-level cities in northeast China were analyzed. The driving factors affecting the change in the wetland ecosystem service function were further analyzed, mainly focusing on changes in the wetland area itself. The influence of other land-use types and the influence of related policies were analyzed in three aspects, among which the GDP and spatial density of the population are social factors, and the elevation and slope are natural factors that provide larger contributions to the change in wetland area. The reduction in forest and grassland areas and the increase in cultivated land and construction land areas have a negative effect on the ecosystem service function of wetlands, and the implementation of relevant wetland protection policies promotes the ecosystem service function of wetlands. According to the problems faced by wetlands in different regions, the government formulates strategies that are in line with local development, with a view to implementing wetland ecological development in the northeast region in the new context, which will help to realize intensive land use and stimulate the vitality of the region.

Published: July 2024

Vehicle classification technology is one of the foundations in the field of automatic driving. With the development of deep learning technology, visual transformer structures based on attention mechanisms can represent global information quickly and effectively. However, due to direct image segmentation, local feature details and information will be lost. To solve this problem, we propose an improved vision transformer vehicle classification network (IND-ViT). Specifically, we first design a CNN-In D branch module to extract local features before image segmentation to make up for the loss of detail information in the vision transformer. Then, in order to solve the problem of misdetection caused by the large similarity of some vehicles, we propose a sparse attention module, which can screen out the discernible regions in the image and further improve the detailed feature representation ability of the model. Finally, this paper uses the contrast loss function to further increase the intra-class consistency and inter-class difference of classification features and improve the accuracy of vehicle classification recognition. Experimental results show that the accuracy of the proposed model on the datasets of vehicle classification BIT-Vehicles, CIFAR-10, Oxford Flower-102, and Caltech-101 is higher than that of the original vision transformer model. Respectively, it increased by 1.3%, 1.21%, 7.54%, and 3.60%; at the same time, it also met a certain real-time requirement to achieve a balance of accuracy and real time.
CANBLWO: A Novel Hybrid Approach for Semantic Text Generation
Authors: Pandey Abhishek Kumar , Roy Sanjiban Sekhar
Published: July 2024

Semantic text generation is critical in Natural Language Processing (NLP) as it faces challenges such as maintenance of coherence among texts, contextual relevance, and quality output. Traditional language models often produce grammatically inconsistent text. To address these issues, we introduce Convolutional Attention Bi-LSTM with Whale Optimization (CANBLWO), a novel hybrid model that integrates a Convolutional Attention Network (CAN), Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (Bi-LSTM), and Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA). CANBLWO aims to generate semantically rich and coherent text and outperforms the traditional models like Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN), Bi-LSTM, and Bi-LSTM with attention, Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT), and Generative Pre-trained Transformer 2 (GPT-2). Our model achieved 0.79, 0.78, 0.76, and 0.82 scores in Metric for Evaluation of Translation with Explicit Ordering (METEOR), Bi-Lingual Evaluation Understudy (BLEU), Consensus-based Image Description Evaluation (Ciders), and Recall-Oriented Understudy for Gisting Evaluation (ROUGE) metrics, respectively. The proposed model also demonstrates 97% and 96% accuracy on Wiki-Bio and Code/Natural Language Challenge (CoNaLa) datasets, highlighting its effectiveness against Large Language Models (LLMs). This study underscores the potential capability of hybrid approaches in enhancing semantic text generation

Authors: Kumar Sandeep , Gautam Karuna , Tripathi Anima , Singh Poonam
Published: July 2024

Depression is a mental health disorder that affects millions of people worldwide. Plants and their products are widely used in the treatments of various diseases including depression for their therapeutic effectiveness with least or no side effects. The present study has therefore been conducted to evaluate the antidepressant like effects of Citrullus lanatus seed extract (CLSE) in the reserpine-induced depressed mouse model by assessing the phytoconstituents of CLSE, body weight, behaviour, histopathology of the adrenal gland and level of plasma corticosterone. Twenty-four adult male mice of Swiss strain were distributed into four groups of six each (n=6).  Group I served as control while groups II, III and IV received reserpine (RES: 0.75mg/kg/BW/day) for 14 days, CLSE (300mg/kg/BW/day) only, for 28 days, and RES+CLSE [RES treatment for 14 days followed by CLSE treatment for 28 days], respectively. Behavioural alterations were analysed by food consumption, sucrose preference, eight-arm radial maze, and forced swim tests during the treatment. RES-induced depression caused marked alterations in the body weight, all behavioural parameters, histopathology of the adrenal cortex, and in the level of plasma corticosterone, compared with the control. Administration of CLSE only, did not cause significant alterations in all the studied parameters, compared with the control. However, CLSE administration in RES-treated mice resulted in significant restoration in all the studied parameters, similar to the control. The findings therefore suggest the antidepressive activity of the seeds of C. lanatus, that may emerge as one of the potential sources among the natural therapies of depression disorder.

Comparative Analysis of LSTM and ARIMA Models in Stock Price Prediction: A Technology Company Example
Authors: Kırelli Yasin
Published: July 2024

Stock price forecasting has been an important area of interest for economists and computer scientists. In addition to traditional statistical methods, advanced artificial intelligence techniques such as machine learning can stand out with their ability to process complex data sets and adapt to historical data. In recent years, hybrid models combining deep learning and time series methods have demonstrated superior performance in stock selection and portfolio optimization. This study comparatively analyses the performance of LSTM and ARIMA models in time series forecasting. In the study, the stock prices of Oracle company are predicted using two different models, LSTM and ARIMA. Model performance is evaluated using metrics like MSE, MAE, RMSE, and MAPE. Both models have been found to be successful in different metrics. The LSTM model has lower error values; meanwhile, the ARIMA model produced proportionally more accurate forecasts. The study concludes that given the potential offered by deep learning, models such as LSTM are essential for time series forecasting. The flexibility of deep learning allows the development of customized models for different data types and time series problems.

Published: July 2024

Conscience is the most important element of the axiological matrix of society, which actualizes its study in conditions of social turbulence. Based on the results of a specific sociological study, it is shown that conscience is associated among the youth of Moscow and the Moscow region with positive concepts covering the moral qualities of a person, and can be interpreted as a moral complex based on honesty, truth, kindness, purity, a sense of shame, awareness and reason; a set of individual qualities based on spirituality, honor, decency, justice, sense of duty; a regulator of actions and decisions, an indicator of humanity, responsibility, dignity. These ideas of modern Russian youth correlate with conceptual approaches to understanding conscience in the classical philosophical heritage and testify to the preservation of the socio-cultural code by young people at the level of the value system. The question of the mechanisms, factors and conditions for the value concepts of conscience among young people to become the basis for decision-making and specific actions requires further research. The results of the study can be used to specify the directions of youth policy for the purpose of spiritual and moral education of the younger generation.
Shared Decision-Making and Informed Consent Legislation in Clinical
Decision Making*
Authors: YOON Yeoran , BAE Hyuna
Published: July 2024

This article examines shared decision-making, a concept that extends beyond
informed consent to safeguard patients’ right to self-determination in medical
decision-making, emphasizing mutuality with patients. After reviewing the
relevant legislation concerning consent, we argue that there are limitations to
using this legislation as a basis for integrating shared decision-making across
various medical domains. We assess the applicability, acceptability, and
consistency of this legislation within the medico-legal system. In particular,
we scrutinize the roles of so-called “participants” in shared decision-making,
the content of shared information, and potential legal liabilities stemming from
deficiencies in this process. Through this examination, we analyze legal
precedents concerning the duty to inform and propose policy adjustments
necessary for the institutionalization of shared decision-making within the
medico-legal framework.

Published: July 2024

Introduction: Nutrient-poor soil can lead to reduced crop yields. Biochar-organic fertilizer has demonstrated positive effects over several growing seasons. However, the efficacy of biochar-organic fertilizers varies based on the raw materials used and the duration of their application in the soil. This study aims to assess the residues of biochar, manure, and compost one year after their application on maize plants in Alfisol. Methods: A 300 kg/ha dosage was employed for a single treatment of biochar, manure, and compost. Additionally, biochar was combined with manure or compost at a dose of 150 kg/ha each. The experiment utilized a randomized block design with nine treatments and three replications, including a control group. The treatments comprised biochar made from coconut shell and husk, compost, manure, shell+compost biochar mixture, shell+manure biochar mixture, husk+compost biochar mixture, and husk+manure biochar mixture. Corn variety Pertiwi 3 was harvested upon reaching physiological maturity. Results: Combining husk biochar with chicken manure exhibited the most favorable response regarding plant height, leaf area, and weight. Furthermore, combining cob biochar and chicken manure yielded optimal cob length, weight without seeds, and seed weight. Conclusion: After one year, applying shell biochar mixed with manure demonstrated the most significant residual effect on corn plants.

Published: July 2024

This article presents a two-phase longitudinal study on the effect of management education on vocational behaviour, using Holland’s Typology to test Congruence as a moderator. The Phase 1 sample was 360 male and female South African MBA/MBL and Specialised Master’s university students; the Phase 2 sample was 103 students. The study was conducted in Gauteng Province, South Africa, with participants from Johannesburg and Pretoria. A within- and between-subjects design was employed. The vocational behaviour indicators were career decision-making self-efficacy, vocational identity, work identity, career commitment, and vocational interest/personality. Discriminant Function Analysis identified the Enterprising personality type as the best predictor of the Enterprising type and Social type environments in South Africa. Holland’s fourth working assumption was partially supported. Congruence did not predict vocational behaviour, but t-test results established significant within- and between-group differences in vocational behaviour due to Congruence. Incongruence was not always linked to negative outcomes; nor was Congruence always linked to positive outcomes. Management education did not change students’ vocational behaviour. Keywords: Management education, Vocational behaviour, Holland’s Typology, Congruence (P-E fit)
Strategies and Errors in Interpreting Conversational Implicatures of Political Discourse
Authors: Gharabeh Thaher
Published: July 2024

This study aims to examine Barik's (1971) categorization, as strategies or errors, in the interpretation of implicatures in English>Arabic and Arabic>English political discourses and, further, to find the effect of employing the categorization on the original message's recovery. Qualitative content analysis methodology is used in this study. Occurrences of Barik's (1971) categorization were collected to be examined. The study finds that interpreters' use of Barik's (1971) categorization in implicature interpreting is as errors rather than strategies in English>Arabic interpretation, but as strategies rather than errors in Arabic>English interpretation. The use of errors can be attributed to a lack of source message comprehension. Substitution was the dominant strategy in English>Arabic implicature interpreting; gross phrasing substitutions, which entail differences in meaning, were the dominant type of substitution. Misinterpreting implicature includes a partial or total loss of the source message. However, instances of coining unstated, unintended meanings were detected, which does not only lose the communicative function but also misleads the audience.

Published: July 2024

Estimation strategies and hierarchical control measures are required for the successful operations of microgrids. These strategies and measures monitor the processes within the control variables and coordinate the system dynamics. State-of-the-art frameworks and tools are built into innovative grid technologies to model different structures and forms of microgrids and their dynamic behaviors. Smart grids’ dynamic models were developed by reviewing different estimation strategies and control technologies. A Microgrid control system is made up of primary, secondary, and tertiary hierarchical layers. These architectures are measured and monitored by real-time system parameters. Different estimation schemes and control strategies manage microgrid control layers’ dynamic performances. The control strategies in the developed technologies dynamics were accessed in the grid environment. The control strategies were modeled for microgrids using six design layers: adaptive, intelligent, robust, predictive, linear, and non-linear. The estimation schemes were assessed using microgrid controllers’ modeling efficiency. Hierarchical control strategies were also developed to optimize the operation of microgrids. Hence, this research will inform policy-making decisions for monitoring, controlling, and safeguarding the optimal design strategies for modeling microgrids.

Antimicrobial resistance presents a substantial threat to global public health, demanding urgent attention and action. This study focuses on lanthipeptides, ribosomally encoded peptides that display significant structural diversity and hold promising potential as antibiotics. Genome mining was employed to locate biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) containing class II lanthipeptide synthetases encoded by lanM genes. A phylogenetic study analyzing homologous sequences of functional LanM sequences revealed a unique evolutionary clade of 17 LanM proteins associated with 12 Clostridium bacterial genomes. In silico exploration identified nine complete BGCs, including one super-cluster containing two co-localized operons from Clostridium cellulovorans 743B, that encode for two new peptides named clostrisin and cellulosin. Each operon was heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli. Molecular weights associated with the expected post-translational modifications of the purified lanthipeptide were confirmed by MS–MS/MS analysis for cellulosin, while clostrisin was not post-translationally modified. Both peptides demonstrated antimicrobial activity against multidrug-resistant bacteria, such as a clinical strain of Staphylococcus epidermidis MIQ43 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA14. This is the first report of lanthipeptides from the Clostridium genus produced with its native biosynthetic machinery, as well as chemically and biologically characterized. This study showcases the immense potential of genome mining in identifying new RiPP synthetases and associated bioactive peptides.

The Image of Woman During Reformation: Evolution of Perceptions
Authors: Rudakov Mikhail V. ,   A.N. Kosygin Russian State University
Published: July 2024

The paper addresses gender aspect of the history and culture of the Reformation era, highlighting new as well as traditional accents in the perceiving and comprehending the image of woman in countries of protestant culture. The author touches upon understudied issue of evolution in viewing of women and women`s self-perception during one of the key eras for the establishing of the modern Europe. The chosen problematics deserves closer attention in a number of concerns — in terms of history, culture studies and theology — and is noteworthy for a close and subtle interaction between Reformation and women as its important actors. Just as the Reformation affected the condition and comprehension of the woman`s image, women influenced the very course of historic events of this period and its ideological content. Against the backdrop of numerous names of prominent reformers, much more represented in academic studies, we see the clear necessity of a research to detect active female participants of the Reforms and to shed light on their activities to fully appreciate women as actual reformeresses and their contribution into reinvention of the women`s status in society and private life. The author carries out analysis of the women`s position from different social strata and their functions in the field of politics, labor, family life, religious and creative activity and comes to the conclusions about their status amelioration in one cases and about new challenges they had to be dealing with. To this end the paper looks at the estimations reformers gave to the women`s role, which is important for determining certain characteristic features of Reformation — retrograde alongside progressive ones.
O PROCESSO DE DESESTABILIZAÇÃO BRASILEIRO (1961-1964) A PARTIR DA ATUAÇÃO DAS ELITES ORGÂNICAS E DO COMPLEXO IPES/IBAD.
Authors: Passoni Lucas Marques
Published: July 2024

O tema escolhido para ser trabalhado neste ensaio bibliográfico é o processo de desestabilização do governo de João Goulart e qual foi o papel do Instituto de Pesquisas Econômicas e Sociais (IPES) e do Instituto Brasileiro de Ação Democrática (IBAD) neste processo. Antes da democracia brasileira sofrer um golpe militar, durante os anos de 1961-1964 uma campanha de desestabilização foi encabeçada pelo empresariado brasileiro, oficiais militares, empresários estrangeiros e com a participação também do governo Estadunidense, entre outros, com o objetivo de eliminar a suposta ameaça comunista no Brasil, que para (DREIFUSS, 1986) define essa, como atuação das elites orgânicas. Essa campanha teve participação intensa desses dois Institutos. O IPES teve grande participação na difusão de ideias anticomunistas e contra o governo de Goulart, como podemos ver no trabalho de (VILELLA, 2014). E o IBAD com financiamento nas eleições gerais de 1962, recebendo subsídios estrangeiros financiando opositores do governo de João Goulart as eleições, como podemos ver no trabalho de (DUTRA, 1963), que era deputado a época. As conclusões são de que o golpe de 1964 teve participação ativa de funcionários Estadunidenses em território brasileiro, além da grande participação desses dois institutos que recebiam subsídios de fonte não muito bem esclarecida.
LITERATURA, MEMÓRIA E AUTORITARISMO: UMA ANÁLISE DE BAR DON JUAN (1971) E A LESTE DOS HOMENS (2017)
Authors: SILVA Ítalo R. T. , AZEVEDO NETO Joachin.
Published: July 2024

O presente artigo é dedicado ao estudo das relações entre literatura do trauma e memória, entendendo a memória como uma fonte histórica relevante para a problematização do vivido. Como principais objetos de estudo, temos a obra Bar Don Juan, de Antonio Callado, publicada em 1971, durante o período ditatorial brasileiro e a obra A Leste dos Homens, de Políbio Alves, publicada em 2017, que apresenta os horrores vividos pelo escritor durante o período de autoritarismo. Entendemos que a literatura do trauma, seja ela em forma de literatura testemunhal ou literatura ficcional, pode ser considerada um elemento essencial de representação da luta, resistência, identidade e na interpretação da ditadura civil-militar (1964-1985). A Literatura é uma manifestação artística que mantém diversas formas de conexão com a memória, sendo aqui considerada importante fonte testemunhal sobre a opressão e formas de resistência ao aparato repressor da ditatura civil-militar brasileira.

Objetivo: Avaliar o uso das metodologias ativas na monitoria remota no processo ensino-aprendizagem na disciplina de farmacologia e descrever a experiência das monitoras de farmacologia na realização de atividades interativas. Métodos: foram realizadas atividades com 34 estudantes do 6° período de uma Instituição de Ensino Superior de Medicina de Curitiba - PR. O intuito foi revisar os conteúdos das unidades curriculares (UC) 16 e 17: Hematologia e Psiquiatria. Para o encerramento da UC16 foi aplicada uma atividade do tipo quizz na plataforma Kahoot. Para o encerramento da UC17 foi elaborada uma cartela de bingo em que cada casa correspondeu a uma pergunta, para realizar um quizz de forma interativa. A avaliação das atividades interativas foi realizada por meio de um questionário via Google Forms utilizando a escala Likert e uma escala graduada de 0 a 10. Resultados: Quando questionados se as atividades realizadas no final das UCs auxiliaram no aprendizado, ajudando a perceber os pontos fortes e fracos, 88,2% dos estudantes concordaram e 91,2% dos alunos consideraram as atividades realizadas no final das UCs bons métodos de fixar pontos importantes do conteúdo. Conclusões: Mesmo com as adversidades na adaptação para o modo online das aulas, foi possível elaborar maneiras diferentes de realizar as revisões das UCs. Os estudantes puderam verificar seus pontos fortes e fracos dentro da matéria, consolidaram o conhecimento e recomendam essas atividades a outros. As monitoras conseguiram ministrar as atividades com êxito, provando que é possível conciliar o estudo da farmacologia com atividades interativas.
