Brainstorming, Field Trip and Gender Effects On Junior Secondary School Students’ Attitude to Business Studies in Rivers State, Nigeria
Authors: Wosu Uchechi Ngozi
Published: March 2023

The study investigated the effects of brainstorming, field trip and gender on students’ attitude in Business Studies. The framework for the study was based on Bandura's social learning theory and Vygotsky's constructivism theory of learning. All the JSS 2 students (467) in the selected schools participated in the study. Both the experimental and control groups were given students. Seven weeks were spent on the treatment. The Attitude to Business Studies Scale (=0.72) was the measure that was utilized. Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) was used to analyze the data at the 0.05 level of significance. There was significant effect of treatment on students’ attitude to Business studies, [F(2,131)=27.70, partial η2=0.29] with FTTM ( =94.94), BTM ( =88.00), and CM ( =84.90). Gender had no discernible main impact on students' attitudes toward business studies. The impact of treatment and gender on students' attitudes toward business studies was nonexistent. Students' business studies learning outcomes in Rivers State were influenced by both brainstorming and field trips, but the field trip strategy was superio. Teachers should be encouraged to use both methods to motivate students’ attitude to Business studies.
An Investigation of English Sound Production Among Nande Bilingual Students in the Democratic Republic of Congo : A Case of Bilingual Christian University of Congo
Authors: Mashauri Mumbere Malonga
Published: March 2023

This article is based on a study that was conducted to examine the different areas of English sound mispronunciation by Nande bilingual students of the Bilingual Christian University of Congo (UCBC) in order to point out the instances where the phonetic system of Kinande causes difficulty for the learner of English resulting in communication and intelligibility breakdown. A total of 50 Nande students were randomly selected from the five faculties organized at UCBC and were involved in the study. The study adopted a qualitative design and used the ethnography method in which the researcher was involved in observing, listening, and asking a few questions as he was immersed in different activities (debate, presentation, dramatization, expressive reading , asking riddles, singing song, prayer, English teaching and teaching some content courses). After data analysis, it was revealed that bilingual Nande students of UCBC acquired their mother language (Kinande) before they began to acquire and to develop the English language. Moreover, the phonological system of Kinande has some sounds that are absent in English, and English has certain sounds that are absent in Kinande, which complicates the learning of those sounds and thus impede smooth communication and mutual intelligibility. Furthermore, Kinande and English have some letters that share the same spelling but they are pronounced differently. Also, teachers of English minimize the teaching of English pronunciations and thus reduce students’ chance to practice pronunciation. Adding to this, teachers of English medium courses do not play their role of language teachers. They seem not to be concerned with language related items and think only TESOL faculties should address challenges related to language.

Published: March 2023

The study analyzed the small scale broiler poultry production in South East Nigeria, West Africa. Specifically, the study examined the socio-economic characteristics of the farmers, the cost and returns of the enterprise, influence of socio-economic characteristics on Net income and challenges to production in the study area. Primary data used for the study was collected using well-structured questionnaire which was administered to 405 sampled broiler poultry farmers in the study area. Descriptive statistical tools (frequencies, percentages and means), enterprise budgeting techniques (Gross margin, Net return on investment, Gross Ratio) and Multiple Regression Analysis were used to analyze the data. Profitability Index (PI) was N0.26 which means that for every naira earned as revenue, 0.26kobo was returned to the farmer as net income. An R2 of .7770 explains 77.7% of the variability of the dependent variable. Four out of the ten parameters included in the model exerted statistic and significant influences on the amount of income realized. Major constraints to Broiler poultry production in the study area were high cost of feed, high cost of vaccines and high cost of day old chicks. Based on the study, the following recommendations are made; since broiler production is profitable, attention should be paid to the broiler farmers to ensure that best practices are adopted for sustainability in the agribusiness.

Intelligent Network Slicing in V2X Networks – A Comprehensive Review
Authors: Abood Mohammed Salah , Wang Hua , He Dongxuan , Kang Ziqi , Kawoya Agnes
Published: March 2023

ABSTRACT- The rise of the internet of things (IoT) and autonomous systems has made connecting vehicles more critical. Connected autonomous vehicles can create diverse communication networks that can improve the environment and offer contemporary applications. With the advent of 5G networks, vehicle-to-everything (V2X) networks are expected to be highly intelligent, reside on superfast, reliable, and low-latency connections. Network slicing, Machine Learning (ML), and Deep Learning (DL) are related to network automation and optimization in V2X communication. Machine Learning and Deep Learning (ML/DL) with network slicing aims to optimize the performance, reliability of the V2X network, personalized services, reduced costs, and scalability and enhance the overall driving experience. These advantages can ultimately lead to a safer and more efficient transportation system. However, existing Long-Term Evolution (LTE) systems and enabling 5G technologies cannot meet such dynamic requirements without adding higher complexity levels. Machine learning algorithms mitigate complexity levels, which can be highly instrumental in such vehicular communication systems. This study aims to review V2X slicing based on a proposed taxonomy that describes the enablers of slicing, a different configuration of slicing, the requirements of slicing, and the ML algorithm used to control and manage to slice. This study also reviews various research works established in network slicing through ML algorithms to enable V2X communication use cases, focusing on V2X network slicing and considering efficient control and management. The enabler technologies are considered in light of the network requirements, particular configurations, and the underlying methods and algorithms, with a review of some critical challenges and possible solutions available. The paper concludes with a future roadmap by discussing some open research issues and future directions.
Enhancing Geotechnical Properties of Lateritic Clay with Sawdust Ash-Lime Stabilizer
Authors: Omotayo Oluwafemi O , Ojuri Oluwapelumi O , Olagunju Oluwafemi O
Published: March 2023

One important means of refining the geotechnical characteristics of soils is stabilization. This research sought to improve the geotechnical properties of lateritic clayey soil using sawdust ash-lime (SDAL) stabilizer. Soil-SDAL mixtures were made, after collecting lateritic clay samples and preparing mixtures of lime and sawdust ash in a ratio of 1:2. SDAL mixtures were added to the lateritic clay in increasing percentages from 0 to 10%. The materials’ index properties were determined, and compaction of the Soil-SDAL mixtures was done using four compactive efforts namely Reduced British Standard Light (RBSL), Standard Proctor (SP), West African Standard (WAS), and Modified Proctor (MP). Unconfined compressive strength (UCS) tests were performed on the Soil-SDAL mixtures as well. Results of the tests showed that the soil could be classified as an A-7-5(7) soil with a 13.7% plasticity index. The plasticity index increased with the addition of SDAL mixtures up to 6% after which there was a gradual decline. Meanwhile, maximum dry density (MDD) decreased while optimum moisture content (OMC) increased with SDAL addition. Unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of the soil increased from 38.58kN/m2 at 0% SDAL to a maximum of 129.63kN/m2 at 6% SDAL, after which there was a gradual decrease. Similar trends were noticed at all compactive efforts, indicating consistency in the performance of the stabilizer. Optimum results were achieved at 6% SDAL content, with Modified Proctor compactive effort giving the maximum value of 1,860kg/m3 MDD. The results prove that sawdust ash-lime mixture offers tremendous abilities in improving lateritic clay soil properties.
Indlamu: An Image of Zulu Upper-Class Culture of the Past
Authors: Yende Sakhiseni Joseph , Ngema Vusabantu
Published: March 2023

Even though Indlamu dance has been a central feature of the Zulu nation, few historical studies address the social status of Indlamu. Indlamu has been largely overlooked as an image of Zulu upper-class people, even though the majority of people had ample access to Indlamu. Also, Indlamu is most often associated with Zulu culture untouched by Western influence, probably because it is regarded as a touchstone of Zulu identity. The purpose of this article is to demonstrate that Indlamu has never been about war dance only for the peasants and migrants’ workers (ordinary people), but rather ‘an image of the Zulu upper-class culture of the past’. The demonstration is done by analysing Indlamu’s history, structural form, performance, and appreciation throughout the decades. This paper employs a textual analysis approach and direct interviews with selected participants who possess extensive knowledge of Indlamu. This article argues that Indlamu is used as a tool to present a Zulu warrior/combatant as an ordered, disciplined, submissive, and obedient member of society. The findings demonstrate that according to the perceived Zulu nationalism and modern capitalism, an ideal Zulu warrior is submissive and obedient to their authorities. This is ascribed to Indlamu performance’s requirements for complete regimental clothing, exact time, and unwavering posture. This article concludes by affirming that similar to ballet and how King Louis XIV would symbolise things like war or Apollo, implying authority and empire, Indlamu performers would likewise symbolise power and battle. This article is intended to bring an understanding of the role of Indlamu in the Zulu nation.

Keywords: Culture, Indlamu, upper-class, war dance, Zulu identity
African Christian Theology and Christology: A Study of the Contributions of Kwame Bediako, John S. Mbiti, Justin Ukpong and Charles Nyamiti
Authors: Agboada Edward
Published: March 2023

The article discusses the scholarship of Kwame Bediako, John Mbiti, Justin Ukpong and Charles Nyamiti to decipher their contributed to the development of a framework for theology, Christology and biblical scholarship in Africa and the development of the African context as an alternative to theology, Christology and biblical scholarship in Africa and beyond. The article used a combination of methods for data collection, interpretation and analysis. This included (a) the biographical with emphasis on intellectual scholarship. This enabled the researcher to assess the intellectual works of selected scholars. (b) there was also content analysis of primary and secondary sources across literature and scholars to evaluate the extent of the impact of the writings of the selected scholars. These works were evaluated in context with both contemporary and modern scholarship. The objective was to decipher how their scholarship has advanced the African context for Christian theology, christology and biblical hermeneutics in Africa. The study discovered that since the rise in the need to identify and make an African contribution to the continuous nomenclatures of Christian theology, christology and biblical hermeneutics that recognize the African experience as a critical necessity in the search for a more wholistic and comprehensive theoretical framework for theology, christology and biblical hermeneutics, these scholars made such a huge contribution not on methodology alone but also on conceptualisation. They contributed to a very large extent to the recovery of African dignity, and the establishment of a philosophy, theology, christology and that was authentically African, credible and viable for any academic scholarship. They were also able to explain how the African context contributes to existing scholarship on nomenclatures of normative Christian theology, Christology and biblical hermeneutics in Africa.

Post Covid-19: Exploring the decolonisation factor in a Mathematics classroom in South African schools
Authors: Nqabeni Nozuko , Buka Andrea Mqondiso
Published: March 2023

In all its efforts, the current South African regime advocates equal and quality education with its educational reforms in particular. However, adapting the curriculum for the previously oppressed in the classroom as the language of the colonist still dominates post the Covid-19 pandemic. It is imperative that Africanisation of the curriculum could be effectively implemented especially in Mathematics classes since the subject is viewed as a scarce skill. Currently, reports indicate that learners are performing poorly in languages and Mathematics. In this theoretical paper, the authors argue that if strategies addressing teaching beyond Covid-19 are embedded in principles of decolonisation and Africanisation are properly addressed in the teaching and learning of Mathematics, the above gloomy picture can be changed for the better. In that process, aspects and issues that can be barriers to learners, namely, the background culture of the learner, language and socio-economic factors need to be addressed. To effect this in the classroom, meaningful Mathematics teaching and learning in this era post covid-19, the authors believe and advocate that constructivist theory can be of benefit. This theory incorporates community and school ecosystems, which can engage various stakeholders in the development of Mathematics learners. This paper posits that within the constructivist theory, teachers will be employing both their Mathematics content knowledge (MCK) and pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) in teaching to advance decolonisation and Africanisation of curriculum.

Authors: S. Dirican
Published: March 2023

With the increasing world population, the importance of dam lakes is increasing within the framework of more effective and efficient use of water resources. This study focuses on the water occupancy rates of Çamlıgöze Dam Lake, located in Turkey, between the years 2010-2021. The annual average water occupancy rate of Çamlıgöze Dam Lake between 2010-2021 was calculated as 69.55 percent. This shows that approximately seventy percent of Çamlıgöze Dam Lake was full between 2010-2021. According to these values, it was determined that the water occupancy rates of Çamlıgöze Dam Lake did not face a serious decrease between 2010-2021. As a result, there is no short term problem in terms of water occupancy rates in Çamlıgöze Dam Lake, but this does not mean that it will not be a problem in the long term. For this reason, it should not be abandoned to use the water of Çamlıgöze Dam Lake effectively, economically and consciously.

Why choose a Private Ethics Committee (PEC); the latest innovative model of the Synergistic Interconnection Committee of the subgroups
Authors: G. Palchetti  , Raymondo F.P , S. Kysil
Published: March 2023

From the events that took place between the first and second half of the last century, especially during the Second World War, the need was felt to change, sometimes radically, the vision of the application of medicine, focusing attention on the patient and on its protection. A new page of Medical Ethics was therefore being written, which subsequently materialized in the creation and birth of new ethics committees, which based their principles on revised and updated laws and regulations. This happened at the level of public institutions, such as hospitals, which concentrated their attention on the lawful application of the principles of Medicine, both in the presence of therapeutic treatment and in the presence of a clinical study. The progress of the activities carried out by Experimental Science requires an update also at the level of the ethics committees, for this reason, Worldwide Consultancy & Services has introduced the latest innovation of a Private Ethics Committee (PEC), with a sphere of competence not only limited to a medical level but widely extended and for the purpose of examining and evaluating the lawful, before the start of carrying out an activity.
Le jésuite et le franc-maçon : mort laïque et prosélytisme clérical à Bruxelles dans les années 1870
Authors: Tyssens Jeffrey
Published: March 2023

En 1872, Jean-Jacques Altmeyer, professeur à l’ULB, franc-maçon et libre penseur notoire, était terrassé par une hémorragie cérébrale. Présumé être à l’article de la mort, le clergé local se présentait, en vain, pour lui administrer l’extrême-onction. Après ce refus, un père jésuite, Honoré Smaelen, tentait de forcer les choses, ce qui menait à des scènes violentes et l’expulsion par force de l’ecclésiastique. Le tout finissait par un procès devant la cour correctionnelle de Bruxelles pour violation de domicile et une condamnation pénale du père jésuite. L’affaire eut un grand retentissement en Belgique, mais aussi à l’extérieur, symbolique comme elle l’était, soit pour le prosélytisme agressif du clergé dans la perception libérale, soit comme preuve de l’athéisme des autorités publiques dans la perception catholique. L’affaire montrait comment la doctrine augustinienne du «  compelle intrare  » était en cause. Elle faisait aussi écho à la mythologie anti-jésuite, peu en Belgique même, il est vrai, mais plus à l’étranger, surtout en terre germanophone où le Kulturkampf avait fait accroître les susceptibilités à cet égard.

L’Arétin réillustré ou la réinvention d’un livre perdu
Authors: Rosellini Michèle
Published: March 2023

Après l’interdiction de la série des Amours des Dieux gravée par Marcantonio Raimondi sur les dessins de Giulio Romano (1524), les gravures disparues furent associées dans l’imaginaire collectif aux sonnets obscènes qu’elles avaient inspirés à l’Arétin. En France au xvii e  siècle le vocable « les arétins » désignait tout recueil de postures érotiques supposé exister. Les éditeurs de livres à vignettes de la fin du xviii e  siècle ont réalisé le fantasme en proposant des versions illustrées de textes faussement attribués à l’Arétin. Ils ont ainsi inventé le livre pornographique.

La redécouverte de la plaque de bois gravée par Regnard en Laponie permet d’attester la véracité de son récit contesté, Voyage en Laponie (1681), et de le mettre en relation avec l’expédition de Maupertuis, par comparaison avec les plaques de J. Wegelius et de G. Gyllengrip, qui accueillirent Maupertuis en 1736. La confrontation de ces trois plaques de bois gravées en latin interroge la possibilité inédite de réfléchir à une poétique de stèles devenue genre, prenant un support textuel et visuel original.
Pour en finir avec l’acronyme GAFAM
Authors: Isaac Henri
Published: March 2023

L’acronyme gafam a connu un succès inédit dans le débat public français. Comment comprendre ce succès ? Pourquoi un amalgame de plateformes numériques américaines aux modèles d’affaires si différents s’est-il imposé ? De quoi est-il la manifestation ? En incarnant la transformation numérique de la société, les gafam constituent un bouc émissaire qui empêche la compréhension des profondes transformations de cette révolution invisible. La dénonciation obsessionnelle de ces acteurs par les responsables politiques français permet d’éviter un débat plus complexe sur leur rôle dans la stratégie de puissance des États-Unis.

Les piliers de la puissance de l’État de Californie sont devenus en deux décennies des acteurs contestés aux modèles économiques disparates et aux rôles paradoxaux, sur la scène intérieure comme sur la scène internationale. Ce phénomène s’est cristallisé au cours des années Trump, du fait de l’usage non régulé des gafam par les acteurs politiques ou privés, mais surtout par les puissances étrangères, qui se sont appuyées sur les failles de ces colosses numériques pour semer le trouble dans le débat public, déstabilisant ainsi le modèle de démocratie pluraliste états-unien.
Comment l’apprentissage artificiel change notre monde
Authors: Benavent Christophe
Published: March 2023

Pour comprendre la manière dont les intelligences artificielles affectent la société, il est nécessaire, d’abord, de les situer dans un ensemble plus vaste de techniques et de systèmes qui déploient sur la société une infrastructure encourageant le développement de boucles de contrôle des activités sociales et économiques. Ensuite, il faut se rappeler qu’elles sont le fruit d’une économie à la recherche constante de gains de productivité ; elles constituent de ce point de vue le produit endogène de la plateformisation du monde. Finalement, parce qu’elles sont plongées dans la société, leurs effets inattendus, parfois délétères, en font des sujets politiques. L’enjeu essentiel est celui de leur légitimité.
Des GAFAM aux RUM : plateformes et débrouille dans le Sud global

Published: March 2023

Les gafam sont souvent considérés comme les acteurs incontestés de l’économie numérique mondiale. Cependant, au travers de trois « ethnographies situées », nous nous concentrons sur les «  rum  » (Rappi, Uber et Microworkers) pour analyser les usages en ligne de livreurs mexicains, de chauffeurs en Argentine et de travailleurs du clic au Venezuela. Si, dans les pays à haut revenu, les acteurs du numérique bénéficient de la stabilité et de la protection sociale fournies par l’emploi formel, dans le contexte de l’Amérique latine, c’est au contraire en exploitant l’informalité et en réactivant des relations de « colonialité » qu’ils arrivent à extraire de la valeur. La mise en place de méthodes de débrouille et de solidarité active montre que la sphère informelle constitue un espace conflictuel où se développent des expériences d’émancipation qui peuvent aussi inspirer les luttes sociales des pays du Nord.
La Commission européenne, la norme et sa puissance
Authors: Toledano Joëlle
Published: March 2023

La Commission européenne, pour devenir une puissance normative, doit réussir la mise en œuvre de ses nouveaux règlements sur les marchés et services numériques. Enjeu majeur pour l’Europe, une régulation efficace nécessitera de prendre en compte les stratégies d’acteurs puissants, la disponibilité de moyens et de compétences à la hauteur du défi, en s’appuyant sur les autorités compétentes des États membres et toutes les parties prenantes au sein de l’Union. La liberté d’expression pourra-t-elle être préservée quel que soit le modèle économique ?
Contrôler les contenus ?
Authors: Cluzel-Métayer Lucie
Published: March 2023

L’adoption du Digital Services Act par les institutions européennes marque l’enracinement d’une logique de compliance pour réguler la liberté d’expression sur internet. Compte tenu de la difficulté structurelle de contrôler les contenus en ligne, le choix de confier cette mission aux plateformes elles-mêmes s’est, en effet, imposé, tout en soulevant nombre de questions quant à leur capacité, leur volonté, leur légitimité à le faire, et en suscitant une réflexion sur les conditions d’un rééquilibrage du contrôle des contenus, indispensable à une régulation pacifiée de la liberté d’expression.
Les États autoritaires face aux Big Tech
Authors: Nocetti Julien , Sel Pierre
Published: March 2023

Comment les États autoritaires abordent-ils leur relation avec les géants du numérique ? À travers deux cas d’étude emblématiques, la Chine et la Russie, cet article montre les rapports ambivalents des Big Tech vis-à-vis de ces régimes où prime le pouvoir politique sur les intérêts privés. Placés entre des intérêts économiques réciproques et les volontés de conserver une souveraineté nationale, les géants du numérique, tant occidentaux que chinois ou russes, ont appris à gérer les conflits et les contradictions pour préserver leurs parts de marché.
Pour des GAFAM européens
Authors: O Cédric
Published: March 2023

Dans une économie mondiale où la capacité à innover est devenue cardinale, la domination américano-chinoise est quasi hégémonique. Le manque d’investissements et les rigidités d’un système économique hérité des Trente Glorieuses ont creusé un retard menaçant la souveraineté économique mais aussi politique de l’Europe, qui ne compte encore quasiment aucun acteur majeur dans la «  tech  ». Notre continent possède pourtant des atouts indéniables, et la dynamique enclenchée depuis le milieu des années 2010 incite à plus d’optimisme, pour peu qu’il s’en donne les moyens.

Published: March 2023

The quantale module introduced by Abramsky and Vickers, engaged a large number of researchers. This research article focuses the combined behavior of rough set, soft set and an algebraic structure quantale module with the left action. In fact, the paper reflects the generalization of rough soft sets. This combined effect is totally dependent on soft binary relation including aftersets and foresets. Different soft substructures in quantale modules are defined. The characterizations of soft substructures in quantale modules based on soft binary relation are presented. Further, in quantale modules, we define soft compatible and soft complete relations in terms of aftersets and foresets. Furthermore, we use soft compatible and soft complete relations to approximate soft substructures of quantale modules and these approximations are interpreted by aftersets and foresets. This concept generalizes the concept of rough soft quantale modules. Additionally, we describe the algebraic relationships between the upper (lower) approximations of soft substructures of quantale modules and the upper (lower) approximations of their homomorphic images using the concept of soft quantale module homomorphism.
Probabilistic linguistic multi-attribute decision making approach based upon novel GMSM operators
Authors: Qin Ya , Hashim Siti Rahayu Mohd. , Sulaiman Jumat
Published: March 2023

Probabilistic linguistic terms set (PLTS), a new tool for expressing uncertain decision information, is composed of all possible linguistic terms (LTs) and their related probabilities. It also increases the corresponding probability of LTs in hesitant fuzzy linguistic term set (HFLTS). On the other hand, aggregation operator is an important information fusion tool, the Maclaurin symmetric mean (MSM) operator can provide more flexibility and robustness in information fusion, and make it more suitable for solving MADM problems with independent attributes. This current study adopts the merits of PLTS and MSM operator, and then a novel probabilistic linguistic decision making approach are targeted. Firstly, the operations of two PLTSs are redefined based upon Archimedean t-norm (ATN) and Archimedean t-conorm (ATC); Secondly, the probabilistic linguistic generalized MSM operator (PLGMSM) is proposed based on ATN and ATC, some properties of PLGMSM are investigated, then some special PLGMSM operators have been studied in detail when the parameters take different values and the generator of ATN takes different functions. Thirdly, the weighted probabilistic linguistic generalized MSM operator (WPLGMSM) is studied along with some properties of PLGMSM, some special WPLGMSM operators have been also investigated in detail when the parameters take different values and the generator of ATN takes different functions. Finally, on the basis of our proposed aggregation operators, the aggregated-based decision making approach is designed and an example is supplied to manifest the effectiveness of the proposed approach. Furthermore, some comparison analyses with extant decision approaches are carried out to illustrate the validity and feasibility of the proposed approach.
Nonlocal impulsive differential equations and inclusions involving Atangana-Baleanu fractional derivative in infinite dimensional spaces
Authors: Nuwairan Muneerah Al , Ibrahim Ahmed Gamal
Published: March 2023

The aim of this paper is to derive conditions under which the solution set of a non-local impulsive differential inclusions involving Atangana-Baleanu fractional derivative is a nonempty compact set in an infinite dimensional Banach spaces. Existence results for solutions in the presence of instantaneous or non-instantaneous impulsive effect are given. We considered the case where the right hand side is either a single valued function, or a multifunction. This generalizes recent results to the case when there are impulses, the right hand side is a multifunction, and where the dimension of the space is infinite. Examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the established results.
Gradient-descent iterative algorithm for solving exact and weighted least-squares solutions of rectangular linear systems
Authors: Tansri Kanjanaporn , Chansangiam Pattrawut
Published: March 2023

Consider a linear system $ Ax = b $ where the coefficient matrix $ A $ is rectangular and of full-column rank. We propose an iterative algorithm for solving this linear system, based on gradient-descent optimization technique, aiming to produce a sequence of well-approximate least-squares solutions. Here, we consider least-squares solutions in a full generality, that is, we measure any related error through an arbitrary vector norm induced from weighted positive definite matrices $ W $. It turns out that when the system has a unique solution, the proposed algorithm produces approximated solutions converging to the unique solution. When the system is inconsistent, the sequence of residual norms converges to the weighted least-squares error. Our work includes the usual least-squares solution when $ W = I $. Numerical experiments are performed to validate the capability of the algorithm. Moreover, the performance of this algorithm is better than that of recent gradient-based iterative algorithms in both iteration numbers and computational time.
Image quality assessment based on the perceived structural similarity index of an image
Authors: Yao Juncai , Shen Jing , Yao Congying
Published: March 2023

Image quality assessment (IQA) has a very important role and wide applications in image acquisition, storage, transmission and processing. In designing IQA models, human visual system (HVS) characteristics introduced play an important role in improving their performances. In this paper, combining image distortion characteristics with HVS characteristics, based on the structure similarity index (SSIM) model, a novel IQA model based on the perceived structure similarity index (PSIM) of image is proposed. In the method, first, a perception model for HVS perceiving real images is proposed, combining the contrast sensitivity, frequency sensitivity, luminance nonlinearity and masking characteristics of HVS; then, in order to simulate HVS perceiving real image, the real images are processed with the proposed perception model, to eliminate their visual redundancy, thus, the perceived images are obtained; finally, based on the idea and modeling method of SSIM, combining with the features of perceived image, a novel IQA model, namely PSIM, is proposed. Further, in order to illustrate the performance of PSIM, 5335 distorted images with 41 distortion types in four image databases (TID2013, CSIQ, LIVE and CID) are used to simulate from three aspects: overall IQA of each database, IQA for each distortion type of images, and IQA for special distortion types of images. Further, according to the comprehensive benefit of precision, generalization performance and complexity, their IQA results are compared with those of 12 existing IQA models. The experimental results show that the accuracy (PLCC) of PSIM is 9.91% higher than that of SSIM in four databases, on average; and its performance is better than that of 12 existing IQA models. Synthesizing experimental results and theoretical analysis, it is showed that the proposed PSIM model is an effective and excellent IQA model.

Published: March 2023

This work deals with a systematic approach for the investigation of compound difference anti-synchronization (CDAS) scheme among chaotic generalized Lotka-Volterra biological systems (GLVBSs). First, an active control strategy (ACS) of nonlinear type is described which is specifically based on Lyapunov's stability analysis (LSA) and master-slave framework. In addition, the biological control law having nonlinear expression is constructed for attaining asymptotic stability pattern for the error dynamics of the discussed GLVBSs. Also, simulation results through MATLAB environment are executed for illustrating the efficacy and correctness of considered CDAS approach. Remarkably, our attained analytical outcomes have been in outstanding conformity with the numerical outcomes. The investigated CDAS strategy has numerous significant applications to the fields of encryption and secure communication.
