Published: September 2024

В модели <<инвестиции--потребления>> темп роста фондовооруженности представляет собой разность между собственными инвестициями и темпом амортизации. Пусть поставлена цель максимально сократить время выхода на заданный уровень фондовооруженности и для достижения этой цели дополнительно выделяются средства заданного объема, которые, однако, вовлекаются в процесс в виде финансового потока ограниченного сверху величиной~--- предельной способностью к поглощению инвестиций (предполагается, что указанная величина представляет собой гладкую функцию фондовооруженности). Дополнительные средства увеличивают темп роста фондовооруженности на значение финансового потока. Изучается вопрос для какого финансового потока, который выполняет роль управления, время достижения требуемой фондовооруженности минимально. Установлено, что оптимальное управление имеет не более двух точек переключения. Причем если этих точек две, то собственный темп роста фондовооруженности в указанные моменты времени одинаков. Оптимальный финансовый поток устроен следующим образом. Существует пара значений фондовооруженности, между начальным и целевым значениями, такая, что пока фондовооруженность меняется от меньшего к большему значению, используются только собственные инвестиции. В остальное время используются дополнительные средства в максимальном возможном темпе. Получены формулы для вычисления указанных значений фондовооруженности.

Lightning arrester is a device used in substations to protect electrical equipment from voltage increases caused by solar circuits or lightning. The purpose of the study is to calculate the lighting arrester spark voltage and voltage rise on the transformer, and analyse the lightning arrester distance to the power transformer and protection factor. Surge voltages, due to disturbances such as lightning strikes, can be very high without lightning arresters, namely 305,065 kV at t = 10 μsec. With an arrester, the voltage is reduced to 262,726 kV from t = 9,05 μsec to 220,387 kV at t = 10 μsec, indicating effective protection. Without lightning arresters, the clamping voltage on the transformer can reach 340,442 kV at t = 12 μsec, exceeding the BIL (325 kV) and risking damage. With an arrester, the pinch voltage is dampened from 306,777 kV at t = 11,05 μsec to 273,169 kV at t = 12 μsec, keeping it below the BIL. The optimal distance of lightning arrester placement at Bungaran Substation is 6,6077 m, while the installed distance is 7 m. This distance complies with PT PLN's standard of up to 34 m for double-circuit transmission, ensuring effective protection. The lightning arrester provides good protection for the 30 MVA Power Transformer with a protection level of 288,998 kV and a protection factor of 11,0774%. This keeps the voltage below BIL (325 kV), effectively reducing the risk of damage from voltage surges.

This research report presents a comprehensive investigation into the prediction of Google's stock prices using advanced machine-learning techniques. The study focuses on assessing the predictive capabilities of three distinct algorithms: XGBoost, LSTM, and ARIMA, applied to historical stock price data with a specific emphasis on close prices. The primary goal is to develop accurate univariate models to forecast the closing stock price for the next day, a crucial aspect of financial decision-making. The evaluation of model performance utilizes a range of metrics including R-squared, Mean Absolute Error (MAE), and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) to provide insights into predictive accuracy. Furthermore, the study explores the effectiveness of hyperparameter tuning and ensemble methods in optimizing model performance. The findings highlight the strong performance of the XGBoost model, which achieves a notable R-squared value and effectively minimizes error metrics. While ensemble techniques exhibit potential, they do not consistently outperform all individual models. The subsequent hyperparameter tuning of the XGBoost algorithm achieves a higher R-squared value of 99.47%, accompanied by an MAE of 15.98 and an RMSE of 27.34. This research contributes valuable insights into the potential of machine learning for stock price prediction, emphasizing the importance of thoughtful model selection and parameter optimization.

Avaliação da desnutrição por meio dos critérios GLIM em pacientes de uma unidade de terapia intensiva e relação com desfechos clínicos
Authors:   , Figueira Raquel Lopes
Published: September 2024

A prevalência de desnutrição em Unidade de Terapia Intensiva (UTI) é alta, contudo ainda não há um método padrão ouro para avaliação nutricional de pacientes críticos. Recentemente, os critérios do Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (critérios GLIM) foram publicados como nova ferramenta de avaliação objetivando uniformização na identificação da desnutrição em todo o mundo, mas ainda não estão validados em pacientes críticos. Estudos que utilizem estes critérios na prática clínica contribuirão para pesquisas futuras, seu refinamento e validação. Desta forma, o principal objetivo deste estudo foi utilizar os critérios GLIM para avaliar o estado nutricional de indivíduos adultos e idosos hospitalizados em uma Unidade de Terapia Intensiva e sua associação com desfechos clínicos. Esta dissertação gerou um artigo original. Trata-se de uma pesquisa longitudinal desenvolvida em um hospital filantrópico de Juiz de Fora - Minas Gerais. A desnutrição na admissão foi identificada pelos critérios GLIM, e os desfechos desfavoráveis avaliados foram tempo de internação e óbito. Foi aplicada a análise de regressão de Poisson com variância robusta para investigar associação entre desnutrição e os desfechos, considerando α = 5%. A amostra foi composta por 178 pacientes. Destes, 65,2% apresentavam desnutrição conforme os critérios GLIM, mas sua presença não foi significativa para a ocorrência de desfechos clínicos de maior tempo de internação (OR 0,90; IC 0,73 – 1,11 p= 0,343) e óbito (OR 1,13; IC 0,86 – 1,50 p=0,357). Entretanto, observamos que ao relacionar o tempo de internação e a ocorrência de óbito, os indivíduos com COVID-19 apresentaram maior prevalência de permanência na UTI por mais de 7 dias (OR 1,32; IC 1,06 – 1,65 p =0,013) e maior prevalência de óbito (OR 1,36; IC 1,00 - 1,76 p= 0,020). Em nosso estudo observamos alta prevalência de desnutrição entre os pacientes hospitalizados na UTI, contudo, a desnutrição não foi independentemente associada aos resultados clínicos adversos pesquisados de tempo de internação e óbito. Todavia, os critérios GLIM parecem ser promissores na prática clínica, pois possibilitam a detecção da desnutrição e assim permitem que ações efetivas sejam direcionadas para o manejo desta condição. Palavras-chaves: Desnutrição; Indicadores antropométricos; Triagem nutricional; Tempo de internação.

COMPARING COMPUTATIONAL LINGUISTICS APPROACHES ACROSS LANGUAGES
Authors: Norqobilov Sanjar
Published: September 2024

This paper provides a comparative study on how core computational linguistics techniques function across typologically diverse languages. With a focus on machine translation (MT), it analyzes the complexities that linguistic variability poses for computational approaches. MT development requires language-specific adaptations rather than a one-size-fits-all model. Through a literature review and cross-linguistic case studies, challenges including word order differences, morphological complexity, lexical ambiguity and inadequate resources are explored across analytic, synthetic, tonal and morphologically-rich languages. Results reveal sites of MT difficulty for languages like Arabic, Chinese, Hindi and Swahili. Discussion centers on how techniques like rule-based, statistical and neural MT are impacted by unique linguistic features, requiring adjustments like morphological analyzers and tailored training data. This indicates the importance of inclusive computational linguistics that moves beyond reliance on English data. The study concludes that flexibility and language-specific customization is needed for algorithms to model the structures of the world’s roughly 7,000 languages effectively.

Authors: Kebenei Dorcas , Nyambane Rhoydah , Mutua Joan
Published: September 2024

Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the effect of communicative behaviour in health care provider-patient communication on prevention and management of cervical cancer among women seeking treatment at Moi Teaching and Referral hospital cancer center in Kenya.
Methodology: This mixed-method descriptive study examined the effect of communicative behavior on the uptake of cervical cancer prevention and management among women at Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital (MTRH) Cancer Center in Kenya. The target population was 4,500 women aged 18-65 seeking regular care at MTRH and their healthcare providers. A sample of 299 women and 32 providers was selected through purposive and stratified random sampling. Data was collected using questionnaires and interviews, with validity and reliability established through pilot testing. Quantitative data was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics, while qualitative data was thematically analyzed.
Findings: The study found a positive correlation between effective healthcare provider-patient communication and increased patient engagement in cervical cancer prevention and management. However, patients reported a lack of clear explanations, perceived indifference from providers, and a general sense of being undervalued. This gap between expected and actual communication practices undermines the study's objective and indicates a need for interventions to foster more empathetic, respectful, and patient-centered communication strategies to improve health outcomes and promote greater uptake of prevention and management services.
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The study demonstrates the critical role of effective healthcare provider-patient communication in influencing preventive health behaviors, providing a roadmap for targeted interventions at the institutional level, and underscoring the need for comprehensive policy support to equip providers with patient-centered communication competencies and elevate cervical cancer prevention in the public discourse.

Authors: Joseph Mark Awala , Nzau Mumo , Onyango Resila
Published: September 2024

This paper investigates the intricate relationship between the intelligence community and human development in Kenya, employing a mixed-methods research approach. Through a combination of qualitative interviews and quantitative surveys, the study explores the challenges and opportunities inherent in this nexus, shedding light on diverse perspectives from key stakeholders. Through a detailed analysis of participant responses, the research highlights diverse perspectives on issues such as transparency, historical mistrust, constitutional influences, financial constraints, capacity limitations, and the evolving perception of intelligence as a service. Key findings reveal a significant acknowledgement of the critical role of transparency and accountability, though opinions are divided, with notable skepticism from a substantial proportion of respondents. Historical mistrust remains a significant barrier, reflecting past abuses of power and secrecy. Constitutional reforms are recognized as a positive influence, yet financial and capacity constraints hinder the intelligence community’s effectiveness in human development. Despite these challenges, there is optimism about the potential of intelligence as a service to contribute positively to socio-economic progress. The study concludes that a comprehensive approach is needed to address systemic challenges and capitalize on emerging opportunities. Recommendations include enhancing transparency and accountability, strengthening oversight mechanisms, and fostering public trust to improve the effectiveness of intelligence-led development initiatives. Future research may consider focusing on identifying best practices, leveraging technology and data analytics, and tracking changes in public perceptions over time to inform strategies for building trust and collaboration between the intelligence community and human development stakeholders.
