This research uses a qualitative research method using an interpretative descriptive qualitative approach method through participant observation and in-depth interviews. Primary data was obtained by researchers directly from data sources, namely village officials, community members and women who were still single in Lumban Ratus Hamlet. Secondary data is supporting data obtained by researchers from interviews, observations and documentation. Meanwhile, the data analysis techniques used are data reduction, data presentation, Spradley model analysis and drawing conclusions. The results of this research show that 1). The Toba Batak community's perception of single women in Lumban Ratus hamlet, Siatas Barita District, North Tapanuli Regency considers that it is not good for a woman to live alone, the community considers that unmarried women are called spinsters, unsold and too picky. One of the reasons why single women feel they haven't found the right soul mate. Society believes that not finding the right soul mate is not an excuse for single women if there is no interest in marriage and society also believes that the reason why women are single is also due to the influence of negative thoughts which influence the mindset of women who feel traumatized by other people's lives and their personal lives. 2). Various factors influence the perception of the Toba Batak community in Lumban Ratus hamlet towards single women in Pansur Napitu village, Siatas Barita sub-district, North Tapanuli Regency, including perpetrators of perception, being targets and objects as well as the influence of the situation.

The stigma given to drug users will make them tend to act in accordance with what is given to them. Positive stigma has a strong meaning, so it tends to have a positive impact on individuals, while negative stigma is given to someone who is considered to deviate from the norm. Stigma towards drug users will become more complex if the handling is not sustainable and can affect the self-concept of drug users. Therapeutic Community is often referred to as the “community method”. Therapeutic Community members interact in structured and unstructured ways to influence attitudes, perceptions, and behaviors related to drug use. Within the Therapeutic Community there is a group approach that provides help to a number of people deliberately grouped based on the problems that person has, where a group is used as a medium to change a behavior.

Excessive thinking is often experienced from adolescence to adulthood. The term that is better known in English is overthingking. Overthinking is a behavior of thinking about something excessively. This habit can make a person reflect too much on what has happened in the past, worry about the future, and think about things that will not necessarily happen. This excessive thinking often occurs when we are experiencing a problem, and are doubtful about what we have done. There are several ways to overcome overthinking itself, one of which is by using Mindfulness Therapy. War in the mind can be interpreted as a condition of someone who thinks about conditions without finding a result that will take action. War in the mind is also known as overthinking, namely overthinking over and over again thinking about things that can take up a lot of time. The aim of this research is to present a complete picture of content. This research explains the content/message of a piece of content. Overthinking has a negative influence on a person's thinking. To fight in one's mind means to speak against oneself, and purely from one's thoughts.

Student delinquency cannot be separated from the impact in science that is constructed on the pattern of subject-object relationships. Through the objectivity of the education system in Indonesia, goals, principles, social organizations, teaching methods, assessments, students, curriculum, facilities and funding, this relational pattern is rooted. Violence against children is no longer limited to the private sector, but extends to wider society. Schools are places where violence occurs in children and this is a concern that is often discussed. Not only teachers can commit violence against students, but fellow students themselves can also commit violence against children. Bullying is the form of violence most often perpetrated by female students, and physical violence, such as fighting and threats, is most often perpetrated by female students. There are four times when children are most likely to experience violence. During recess, after school, when changing classes, and when no one is in class. Most violent incidents occur outside the school environment, not within the school environment. One way to prevent bullying at school is to explain the causes of the problem by considering the function and role of education at home, school and society.

Abstract
Child exploitation is one of the most serious cases. Triggered by increasingly advanced and widespread globalization, child exploitation in Thailand continued to increase from 2019 to 2022. As a country that has long ratified the Convention on the Rights of the Child, Thailand's determination to resolve child exploitation cases is questionable. This article examines the effectiveness of the Convention on the Rights of the Child in Thailand from 2019 to 2022, using Arild Underdal's perspective on the effectiveness of the regime and explaining it clearly. The results of this study show that the Convention on the Rights of the Child that has been ratified by Thailand has not yet been fully enforced. This is evidenced by a steady increase every year from 2019 to 2022. This shows that child exploitation cannot be solved with current laws.

The current study aims to develop a framework for corporations’ classification of environmental strategies. Stakeholder theory and institutional approach are used to identify internal and external pressures that organizations face regarding environmental response. Based on the review of the literature, different classifications of environmental strategies were identified. A holistic matrix of corporate environmental response is developed on a continuum of low to high pressures from internal factors and external factors. The classification of environmental strategies based on internal and external pressures illustrates the complexity of organizational responses to environmental challenges. Companies can adopt a mix of proactive, compliance-oriented, and hybrid strategies to address both internal goals and external expectations effectively
Unsupervised Industrial Anomaly Detection Based on Feature Mask Generation and Reverse Distillation
Authors: Qi Pei , Chai Lin , Ye Xinyu
Published: October 2024

In the realm of industrial defect detection, unsupervised anomaly detection methods draw considerable attention as a result of their exceptional accomplishments. Among these, knowledge distillation-based methods have emerged as a prominent research focus, favored for their streamlined architecture, precision, and efficiency. However, the challenge of characterizing the variability in anomaly samples hinders the accuracy of detection. To address this issue, our research presents a novel approach for anomaly detection and localization, leveraging the concept of inverse knowledge distillation as its cornerstone. We employ the encoder as the guiding teacher model and designate the decoder as the learning student model, leveraging the structural disparity between the teacher-student (T-S) models to mitigate the generalization challenge. Additionally, we integrate an attention mechanism into the distillation framework to concentrate on the precise extraction and reconstruction of image features, thereby preventing the loss of nuanced details. To further refine the learning process, we have developed a feature mask generation module that minimizes the impact of spatial redundancy in the teacher's features, thereby enhancing the acquisition of pivotal feature information. Comprehensive experimental evaluations, carried out meticulously on the MVTec AD dataset, convincingly illustrate the superiority of our proposed method over prevalent methodologies in both detecting and pinpointing anomalies across a diverse range of 15 categories. The proposed methodology attains superior outcomes, evinced by the detection AUROC, localization AUROC, and localization PRO metrics achieving respective values of 99.1%, 98.5%, and 95.9%. To substantiate the significance of individual components within the model, we conduct ablation studies, thereby reinforcing both the efficacy and applicability of our approach.
Explainable Classification of Remote Sensing Ship Images Based on Graph Network
Authors: Li Haoran , Xiong Wei , Cui Yaqi , Xiong Zhenyu
Published: October 2024

Remote sensing image plays an important role in maritime surveillance, and as a result there is increasingly becoming a prominent focus on the detection and recognition of maritime objects. However, most existing studies in remote sensing image classification pay more attention on the performance of model, thus neglecting the transparency and explainability in it. To address the issue, an explainable classification method based on graph network is proposed in the present study, which seeks to make use of the relationship between objects' regions to infer the category information. First, the local visual attention module is designed to focus on different but important regions of the object. Then, graph network is used to explore the underlying relationships between them and further to get the discriminative feature. Finally, the loss function is constructed to provide a supervision signal to explicitly guide the attention maps and overall learning process of the model. Through these designs, the model could not only utilize the underlying relationships between regions but also provide explainable visual attention for people's understanding. Rigorous experiments on two public fine-grained ship classification datasets indicate that the classification performance and explainable ability of the designed method is highly competitive.
The ‘Great Trans-Atlantic Acid-Base Debate: Current Status in the age of Artificial Intelligence
Authors: Ijaz Aamir
Published: October 2024

Blood gas analysis (BGA) is one of the most common investigations carried out in critically ill patients. All the results mentioned in the print-out from the BGA equipment are not measured directly but some are calculated using formulae devised by great scientists like Henderson and Hasselbalch. Similarly, in 1950s, interpretation rules were suggested by a group of scientists from Boston Massachusetts US. These rules were based on two BGA parameters i.e. partial pressure of arterial Carbon Dioxide (PaCO2) and concentration of bicarbonate [HCO3].These rules were, however, criticized on the plea that some ‘extra luggage’ has been added on a cognitively over-loaded plethora of symbols appearing ‘Latin’ to a novice. In Copenhagen (Denmark), on other side of the Atlantic Ocean, some parameters were proposed for quantitative assessment of metabolic acid-base abnormalities. These include Standard Bicarbonate (stHCO3), Base Excess (BE) and Standard Base (SBE). These parameters were severely criticized by Boston Group mainly on the ground that these parameters are derived ‘in vitro’ and not valid for ‘in vivo’. Such debates are quite desirable and must continue by the new generations of scientists to find a solution based on Artificial Intelligence, so that the machines should not only give the data (plethora of symbols) but also exact diagnosis of acid-base disorders, stoichiometric analysis and the amount of acid or base required to be given to the patient.

Power outages have created significant challenges for power system networks, particularly in developing countries where the electricity demand continues to rise without a corresponding increase in power generation or the expansion of transmission and distribution networks. In Kenya, while there is a well-established transmission line network, the distribution infrastructure remains inadequate for supplying electricity to end consumers. This paper examines the economic load dispatch (ELD) of power system networks utilizing Service Potential Transformer (SPT) substations to provide electricity to villages located near high voltage (HV) lines. The ELD analysis was conducted to identify the optimal economic power output from the Kipevu, Rabai, and Thika thermal power plants, addressing the demand for both conventional and non-conventional substations. A gradient method was employed to calculate the ELD for these three generating units, and the results were validated using the PowerWorld simulator. Findings indicated that the three generators supplied 20 MW, 37.5 MW, and 12.5 MW, respectively. The results obtained from the gradient method are consistent with those obtained from PowerWorld software. Additionally, this study projected an annual fuel cost savings of USD 17,695.20 when ELD was implemented, compared to a scenario of equal load distribution among generating units. Over a ten-year period, these savings would be sufficient to establish a conventional distribution substation to meet the power demands of villages located further away from high voltage lines.
Why is Tesla’s Business model so effective and what can they adapt to improve it?
Authors: Er Doruk Efe
Published: October 2024

The electric vehicle (EV) revolution is gaining momentum and Tesla is playing a key role in promoting environmentally friendly transport. However, Tesla faces challenges in expanding its charging infrastructure, which lags behind its competitors. Currently, Tesla has about 16.8 thousand to 17.7 thousand chargers in the US, while competitors such as Chargepoint offer about 34 thousand chargers. As the increase in the use of electric vehicles is estimated to reach 28.3 million vehicles by 2030, the charging network urgently needs to be improved. S\&P Global Mobility recommends a fourfold increase in charging points, especially Level 2 and Level 3 chargers, between 2022 and 2025 to meet growing demand. Tesla has two main options: collaborate with other companies to create a more interconnected network or continue to build its stations. The development of Tesla's Magic Dock technology, which allows other electric vehicles to use Tesla's chargers, marks progress, but also brings challenges, such as compatibility issues due to cable length. Tesla must address these concerns to ensure that its charging network keeps pace with rapid EV growth and supports a wider range of EVs.
Revolutionizing Human Augmentation: The Future of Neuroprosthetics and Brain-Computer Interface Technologies
Authors: Liv Buse
Published: October 2024

The future of neuroprosthesis and brain-computer interface (BCI) technologies is poised to transform medical treatments, cognitive development, and human-machine interaction. Neuroprosthetics, which integrate artificial devices with the nervous system to restore or enhance sensory and motor functions, have already improved the lives of people with disabilities. Advances in materials science and neural interfacing are taking these technologies even further, enabling more seamless integration and better control of prosthetic limbs and sensory devices. As these technologies improve, they may soon be able to restore complex functions such as speech, vision, and memory. At the same time, BCIs go beyond traditional applications for neurological disorders, opening up possibilities for cognitive enhancement, neural data transfer, and immersive virtual experiences. With advances in machine learning and neuroimaging, BCIs can enhance cognitive abilities, treat neurological diseases, and redefine human-computer interaction. However, these technologies also raise ethical, social, and security concerns. The risk of misuse, such as unauthorized access to neural data, and the potential creation of cognitive hierarchies emphasize the need for robust regulation. Ensuring accessibility and equity is also essential to ensure that the benefits of these advances are shared equitably. The development of neuroprostheses and BCIs has had a positive impact.

Authors: Liv Buse
Published: October 2024

The future of artificial intelligence (AI) in diagnosing rare genetic disorders is poised to transform precision medicine by accelerating the identification of conditions that are often difficult to diagnose. Rare genetic disorders, which affect millions of people worldwide, typically involve complex symptoms and lengthy diagnostic processes. AI's ability to process vast amounts of genomic, phenotypic, and clinical data positions it as a game-changer in this field. By detecting subtle patterns and correlations in large datasets, machine learning algorithms can deliver diagnoses faster and more accurately than traditional methods. AI-powered tools are proving valuable in whole genome and exome sequencing, automating the identification of pathogenic variants linked to rare diseases. By integrating clinical and phenotypic data, these systems can offer personalized insights, reduce diagnostic delays and improve genetic counseling and treatment development. However, the use of AI in rare disease diagnosis poses challenges, such as the need for diverse datasets to train algorithms and concerns over data privacy and equal access. Ensuring that AI tools are validated in diverse populations and effectively integrated into healthcare systems is crucial to their success. This summary will focus on the potential of AI to improve diagnostic accuracy, personalize treatments, and improve the management of rare diseases.

Published: October 2024

This paper delves into the information-seeking behavior of academics, focusing on the strategies used and the choices made, as well as the problems encountered in reaching sources of scholarly information. The research employed a mixed-method approach based on a questionnaire distributed to faculty members across different departments, complemented by in depth interviews with faculty members from several departments. Results show significant reliance by academics on electronic sources, like academic databases and institutional repositories; however, they have a penchant for hard-copy sources: libraries and interlibrary loans. It is important to mention specific discipline needs, time constraint, and credibility of sources for them to search for information. Overload in information as well as the pace at which digital tools emerge were specific issues that were identified during the investigation. The paper, in general, puts across the need for site-specific services to help the students so as to enhance their work on academic research and organize as a community. Ultimately, such understanding can be used for improvement in the design of better resource management and support systems by the academic institution.

Introduction: It is important to assess the risk of vertebral fractures (VFs) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), as RA is associated with a high risk of VFs. However, the epidemiology and risk of VFs in patients with RA remain inconclusive. The present study therefore clarified the prevalence and associated factors of VFs in patients with RA. Methods: We included 107 patients (19 men and 88 women) and retrospectively investigated the number and location of VFs, bone mineral density (BMD), RA disease activity score for 28 joints based on C-reactive protein (DAS28-CRP), and history of medication for RA and osteoporosis. Based on the investigated items, we assessed the prevalence of VFs in patients with RA and the association between the clinical parameters of RA patients and VFs. Results: The average age, disease duration, and DAS28-CRP were 67.9 years old, 14.9 years, and 2.2, respectively. We found that the prevalence of VFs in patients with RA was 30.8%, and 84.8% of patients with VFs and 62.2% of those without VFs had been treated for osteoporosis. We further found that the prevalence of VFs in patients with RA with a history of anti-osteoporotic agent use was 37.8%. In univariate analyses, patients with RA with VFs had significantly higher DAS28-CRP values, a higher rate of corticosteroid use, and lower BMD (p = 0.018, p = 0.004, and p < 0.001, respectively) than those without VFs. A multivariable　logistic regression analysis and ordinal logistic analysis revealed that the DAS28-CRP and BMD were independent factors associated with the presence (p = 0.042 and p = 0.011, respectively) and number (p = 0.036 and p = 0.048, respectively) of VFs. Conclusions: The prevalence of VFs was relatively high in patients with RA, regardless of the use of anti-osteoporotic agents. A high disease activity score and low BMD are associated with the presence and number of VFs in patients with RA. Based on these findings, to reduce VFs in RA patients, it is important to tightly control the disease activity of RA in addition to osteoporosis treatment.
Gut microbiota in axial spondyloarthritis : genetics, medications and future treatments
Authors:   Birmingham City Hospital, England, Yemula N , Sheikh R ,   King’s Mill Hospital, England
Published: October 2024

Axial spondyloarthritis, also referred to as ankylosing spondylitis, is a chronic inflammatory condition that predominantly affects the axial spine but may also present with peripheral arthritis. It falls within the umbrella of disorders known as spondyloarthropathies. In addition to axial spondyloarthritis, this group includes psoriatic arthritis, enteropathic arthritis, reactive arthritis, and undifferentiated spondyloarthropathy, with axial spondyloarthritis being one of the most common. The overall mechanisms underlying the development of axial spondyloarthritis are complex and multifactorial. There is a significant and well-recognized association between axial spondyloarthritis and the HLA-B27 gene, but there have also been non-HLA genes identified in the disease process, as well as certain inflammatory cytokines that play a role in the inflammatory process, such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF). More recently, there has been research and new evidence linking changes in the gut microbiota to the disease process of axial spondyloarthritis. Research into the role of the gut microbiota and gut dysbiosis is a large, ever-growing field. It has been associated with a multitude of conditions, including axial spondyloarthritis. This mini-review highlights the symbiotic relationship of the gut microbiota with the pathogenesis, therapeutic agents and future treatments of axial spondyloarthritis .

A leitura é fonte de construção do saber, por isso, fundamental na educação em qualquer nível. Tendo em vista sua importância no processo de compreensão de mundo, a leitura constitui hoje uma demanda social.  Diante disso, este artigo tem como objetivo refletir sobre o papel da leitura na formação do professor de língua materna, em contextos escolares.  O artigo foi desenvolvido em três tópicos: o primeiro, aborda a formação inicial de professores para o ensino da leitura, e o professor como agente organizador no processo de mediação da leitura. O segundo tópico trata da leitura como objeto de ensino, focalizando concepções e práticas de ensino de leitura, no âmbito do curso de Letras. No terceiro e último tópico são apresentadas práticas e perspectivas de formação de professores-leitores na universidade, com foco no professor como organizador das práticas educativas de leitura de leitura em sala de aula. Nas considerações finais, conclui-se com uma breve reflexão sobre a temática que dá corpo a este artigo: o papel da leitura na formação do professor.

A TEORIA DOS FENÔMENOS COMPLEXOS DE HAYEK E AS POLÍTICAS PÚBLICAS PARA A EDUCAÇÃO NO GOVERNO FHC
Authors: Carvalho João Wilson Savino , Pantoja Florinaldo Carreteiro , Lucena Carlos
Published: October 2024

Trata-se de um estudo histórico das relações entre o pensamento epistemológico de F. A. Von Hayek e sua influência nas políticas públicas para a educação implementadas no período do Governo Fernando Henrique Cardoso, com apoio na metodologia hermenêutico-dialética, entendida sob a concepção de Maria Cecília Minayo, como uma linha de pensamento afim à fenomenologia que desenvolve a reflexão sobre a realidade como trabalho de interpretação, de busca de sentido, mediante a decifração de suas expressões simbólicas, considerando sempre que o fundamento da realidade é a dialética e seus princípios. O foco do estudo é nos fatores que viabilizam a compreensão da retomada do neoliberalismo em um governo de base social-democrática, o objetivo é a análise das consequências dessa política econômica para a educação brasileira, e em especial para a formação de docentes das séries iniciais do ensino fundamental, e a conclusão é que a expansão do tecnicismo e da lógica de mercado sob o disfarce de socialdemocracia permitiu ao Governo FHC a reorganização do sistema de formação de professores sob os interesses do mercado, com resultados nefastos para a educação brasileira como um todo.
DIALOGANDO COM GOFFMAN: contribuições e limites sobre a deficiência
Authors: Piccolo Gustavo Martins , Mendes Enicéia Gonçalves
Published: October 2024

Objetivamos com este texto, mediante processo de revisão literária, apresentar as contribuições e limites dos textos de Goffman para um repensar sobre a deficiência a partir de outros lineamentos que não os médicos e biológicos. Para tanto, destacamos, em um primeiro momento, os cortes distintivos característicos do pensar interacionista e a importância que o mesmo tece à temática do desvio. Após esta tarefa, nos debruçamos sobre uma análise crítica dos conceitos de estigma e instituições totais, cujo ineditismo e relação ao campo da Educação Especial seduziram sobremaneira estes pesquisadores. Por fim, demarcamos a necessidade de um novo pensar sobre a deficiência como forma de luta contra as práticas de rotulação, discriminação e opressão que tanto têm marcado a socialidade capitalista contemporânea, avessa a quaisquer diferenças que não resultem no acúmulo do lucro e da mais valia.
MEMÓRIAS DE PRÁTICAS DE CLASSES MULTISSERIADAS: A PROFESSORA GERSY – NOVO HAMBURGO/RS (1940- 1969)
Authors: Souza José Edimar de
Published: October 2024

O presente estudo tem por objetivo desdobrar fatos em torno da trajetória de uma professora cuja docência ocorreu na área rural de Novo Hamburgo - RS, entre 1940-1969. O contexto em que as memórias emergem diz respeito à relação que se estabelece com a realidade no processo de reconstrução da história do ensino rural nesse município do sul do Brasil. Pretende, pois, analisar como a trajetória se entrelaça à prática docente em classes multisseriadas e possibilita compreender fragmento do ensino rural. A pesquisa, de natureza qualitativa, utiliza metodologia da História Oral valendo-se de entrevistas semi-estruturadas. O referencial teórico fundamenta-se na perspectiva da História Cultural, tendo as memórias como documento. As memórias dessa professora permitiram conhecer um pouco sobre os primórdios da escola pública em Lomba Grande, enfatizando a presença das “Aulas Públicas” e o processo de construção das Escolas Isoladas, aspecto que a singularizam como docente nessa localidade.
AS CONCEPÇÕES FILOSÓFICAS E EDUCACIONAIS PRESENTES NOS MANUAIS DE FILOSOFIA DA EDUCAÇÃO PUBLICADOS DURANTE A PRIMEIRA METADE DO SÉCULO XX
Authors: Neto Armindo Quillici , Oliveira Marco Aurélio Gomes de , Vieira Mauro Machado
Published: October 2024

Este trabalho é resultado da análise dos manuais de filosofia da educação, realizada por um questionário previamente estruturado, que favoreceu a identificação e análise dos temas presentes nos manuais de filosofia da educação. Intentou-se, também, identificar a concepção de educação e a visão de docência dos manuais, uma vez que a maioria do material tinha como público alvo os estudantes das escolas normais. A definição de filosofia da educação se faz necessária para a compreensão das principais correntes de pensamento filosófico hegemônicas no Brasil do século XX. Este trabalho é parte de uma pesquisa mais ampla, que possibilitará a condição para novos desdobramentos sobre o tema. A pesquisa contou também com o apoio do CNPq, edital MCT/CNPq 02/2009.

RESUMO DE DISSERTAÇÕES
Authors: Medeiros Chaiane de
Published: October 2024

O presente estudo investiga a política de cotas adotada pela Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG), que contempla egressos de escolas públicas, negros egressos de escolas públicas, indígenas e quilombolas. Demarca como as políticas de ajuste neoliberal desenvolvidas pelo Estado brasileiro, sobretudo a partir dos anos 1990, configuraram uma ampla reforma no campo educacional, especialmente na educação superior. O foco da pesquisa, portanto, é o programa de cotas da UFG, UFGInclui, buscando desvelar os fundamentos, limites e contradições desse programa e sua articulação com a política de expansão e democratização do acesso às universidades federais brasileiras. Seguindo parâmetros de uma pesquisa qualitativa, a presente investigação se desenvolve a partir de pesquisa bibliográfica, pesquisa documental e pesquisa empírica. O referencial teórico adotado ancora-se nas análises de autores como: Amaral (2004, 2009), Ferreira e Oliveira (2011, 2012), Oliveira (2009), Santos (1999), Sguissardi (2009) e outros. Além disso, é objeto de análise o seguinte corpus documental: a legislação, que compreende as políticas de educação superior no Brasil e em Goiás; os ordenamentos legais, resoluções e normativas específicas da UFG; dados estatísticos provenientes de instituições de pesquisa nacional e dados estatísticos sobre o programa UFGInclui. Os resultados indicam que vários aspectos merecem ser objeto de intervenção com vistas a aprimorar o processo de democratização do acesso à educação superior na UFG. O estudo, no entanto, evidencia a necessidade das políticas de cotas com vistas a assegurar o acesso à educação superior a grupos historicamente excluídos. Reconhece que o programa UFGInclui constitui-se num avanço em relação à democratização do acesso à educação superior em Goiás, mas avalia que há um conjunto de ações a serem desenvolvidas no seio da universidade com vistas ao seu aprimoramento.
