VECTORIZATION OF URBAN MLS POINT CLOUDS: A SEQUENTIAL APPROACH USING CROSS SECTIONS
Authors: Barçon E. , Landes T. , Grussenmeyer P. , Berson G.
Published: May 2022

Abstract. Dense point clouds acquired with a mobile laser scanning system (MLS) device become usual raw data for different surveyor applications: topographic maps, 3D models, road inventories, risk assessment of vegetation on road or railroads. Thanks to important evolutions in technologies, MLS devices became powerful and very popular. In the meantime, the need for point cloud automatic processing tools is growing. However, the available tools have not yet reached a sufficient level of maturity. Using MLS point clouds to produce topographic maps, BIM model or other deliverables, requires very often manual vectorization (or digitalization) work. In the road context, the transition from point cloud to road map that consists in delineating curb or road edges, road markings, pole, trees, facades etc. is currently performed manually. To reduce these time-consuming operations, several solutions have been proposed in the literature. In this paper we present the first results of a method consisting in vectorizing urban point cloud scene. The originality of this work is to propose a global approach aiming to detect and vectorize simultaneously multiple objects. The developed algorithm uses cross-section analysis to detect road curbs and vertical objects. The first results are promising, since an F-score higher than 80% has been reached, even before applying road logic rules or additional knowledge. The detection and extraction of vertical objects including facades, trees, and poles, is more challenging but the detections also present a recall greater than 85%.
INITIAL STUDY ASSESSING THE SUITABILITY OF DRONES WITH LOW-COST GNSS AND IMU FOR MAPPING OVER FEATURELESS TERRAIN USING DIRECT GEOREFERENCING

Published: May 2022

Abstract. Drone technology has shown the potential to act as the middle ground between satellite, light aircraft, and terrestrial or in-situ methods. However, featureless terrain such as water poses a challenge when it comes to drone mapping. The main challenge is identifying matching points to combine overlapping images into a single dataset. In particular, because traditional methods such as Structure from Motion (SfM) is dependent on tie point collection, its usage over featureless terrain is almost impossible. In solving this problem, we propose that the use of Direct Georeferencing (DG) in registering images be explored as a potential method and we propose a method for correcting errors due to tilt with low-cost IMUs. This study first assesses the accuracy of direct georeferencing using low-cost Inertial Measurement Units (IMU) and Global Navigational Satellite System (GNSS) providing analysis of the error sources associated with direct georeferencing and then demonstrates new approaches to minimize them. To best simulate a water type environment or surface for the initial studies, a drone survey was conducted on flat farmland and a POSE analysis was performed. We then processed the images using direct georeferencing and then compared our error minimisation method to standard Bundle Block Adjustment with GCPs and again with no GCPs. Results showed that using the method proposed in this study helped reduce the Mean Absolute Error associated with direct georeferencing by 54%. These initial results show a clear potential for mapping over inland water using direct georeferencing.
UNCERTAINTY MODELING FOR POINT CLOUD-BASED AUTOMATIC INDOOR SCENE RECONSTRUCTION BY STRICT ERROR PROPAGATION ANALYSIS
Authors: Jarzabek-Rychard M. , Maas H.-G.
Published: May 2022

Abstract. Accurate digital representation of indoor facilities is a key component for the generation of building twins. 3D indoor scenes are often reconstructed from 3D point clouds obtained by various measurement techniques, which usually show different accuracy characteristics. During the reconstruction process, the uncertainties of data and intermediate products propagate into the accuracy of the vectorized model. Although point clouds-based 3D building modeling has been a hot topic of research for at least two decades, a thorough analysis of error propagation for this problem from a geodetic point of view is still underrepresented. In this contribution, we propose an analytical approach to estimate the uncertainty of 3D modeling results using the analytic approach based on first-order Taylor-series expansion. A general model for the input data is established and the uncertainty expressions of all computed products are symbolically derived. We estimate the uncertainty of 3D data fitting, followed by the derivation of vectorized building parameters and their covariance matrices. The results of the theoretical approaches are tested on real data presenting an indoor scene. The practical example is illustrated, thoroughly analysed, and quantified.
BULLDOZER: AN AUTOMATIC SELF-DRIVEN LARGE SCALE DTM EXTRACTION METHOD FROM DIGITAL SURFACE MODEL
Authors: Lallement D. , Lassalle P. , Ott Y. , Demortier R. , Delvit J.
Published: May 2022

Abstract. This study presents a Digital Terrain Model extraction method called Bulldozer. The only required input of Bulldozer is a Digital Surface Model generated from any sensors (usually optical or LIDAR) with any kind of software. After reviewing both the initial DrapCloth algorithm (Zhang et al., 2016) and its multi scale implementation (Leotta et al., 2019), some issues have been highlighted when extracting DTM from stereo satellite images such as the lost of ground adhesion under rising terrain areas, the appearance of sinks due to correlation issues when computing the DSM and finally the lack of scalability when processing large input data. Bulldozer has been developed to tackle all these issues and proposes a full automatic scalable pipeline composed of a pre-processing step to clean noisy DSMs by detecting and smoothing disturbed areas, a DTM extraction step based on a modified DrapCloth algorithm to stick to the ground under rising terrain and a post-processing step to smooth sharp sinks. The scalability has been solved using a tiling strategy and the definition of a stability margin that ensures identical results to those obtained if the whole DSM would have been processed at once in memory. As a result, Bulldozer outperforms its concurrent with respect to runtime execution while providing high quality DTMs over various types of landscapes.
COMBINING TIR IMAGES AND POINT CLOUDS FOR URBAN SCENES MODELLING
Authors: Macher H. , Landes T.
Published: May 2022

Abstract. The simulation of the energy balance at the scale of a street become a huge issue. The accurate geometry of the area, detailed atmospheric measurements, and eco-physiological information are necessary to perform faithful simulations. In addition, thermal images showing surface temperatures are also of highly interest to analyse the energy balance between façades and trees. In this context, the aim of our project is to contribute to the development of a methodology for merging 3D geometry of an urban scene with surface temperatures. In this paper, a methodology is proposed for the texturing of a point cloud from a static laser scanner with IR images from a thermal camera. The main idea of the developed methodology is to take part of the ability of the thermal camera to acquire simultaneously RGB and IR images. After determining the relative position and orientation of IR and RGB sensors, the orientations of IR images are deduced from the orientations of RGB images. Then, the point cloud and RGB images are registered by selecting homologous points manually. Finally, the point cloud is textured with the IR images.
MULTI-MODAL TRIANGULATION FOR IN-SITU BORESIGHT CALIBRATION OF FRAME AND LINE CAMERAS ONBOARD GNSS/INS-ASSISTED UAVS
Authors: Hasheminasab M. , Zhou T. , Habib A.
Published: May 2022

Abstract. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) equipped with integrated global navigation satellite systems/inertial navigation systems (GNSS/INS) together with RGB and hyperspectral (HS) cameras have become popular data acquisition tool for several applications. To derive accurately georeferenced products from such systems, the spatial and rotational offset between the onboard sensors and the GNSS/INS unit must be determined. While the spatial relationship can be measured manually, establishing the angular offset – i.e., boresight angles – is more challenging and requires a calibration strategy. Given that the majority of RGB cameras are based on frame imaging mechanism, boresight calibration of these sensors is usually conducted through automated triangulation of overlapping images. On the other hand, most of current HS cameras are based on push-broom technology – also known as line cameras – which capture 1D images at a time. Consequently, automated triangulation of these non-overlapping images is not possible and thus, current boresight calibration strategies for HS cameras are based on calibration missions where special targets are deployed in the study site and are manually measured in the imagery. Although boresight calibration missions can lead to accurate system calibration parameters, they are expensive and labor intensive activities. To address these limitations and motivated by the new trend of UAVs equipped with both RGB and HS cameras, this study proposes a multi-modal triangulation approach to conduct an in-situ boresight calibration for the two cameras, simultaneously. Experimental results over an agricultural field and an urban area show that the proposed approach results in orthophotos with high visual quality and geolocation accuracy.
FEATURES OF AERIAL TRIANGULATION BY USING DIFFERENT-TIME IMAGES OF URBAN AREAS
Authors: Kobzev A. A. , Chibunichev A. G.
Published: May 2022

Abstract. It is well-known that in order to obtain up-to-date spatial information of rapidly developing cities, aerial photography is carried out almost annually. This work is devoted to the joint aerial triangulation of aerial urban area photographs obtained at different times. The main problem of the joint aerial triangulation of different-time images is the process of tie points detection. In this paper it is proposed to search for tie points exclusively on the roofs of building since they are least susceptible to change over time. In order to do this, the roofs of buildings are highlighted on the original aerial photographs via the Unet neural network and then tie points are detected within these areas. The technology made it possible to improve the quality of aerial triangulation: remove photogrammetric gaps in the given block, increase the number of tie points, reduce the processing time by 25% without increasing computing requirements. This approach to the search for tie points made it possible to increase the efficiency of aerial triangulation not only when processing archival and current images together, but also when processing only the results of actual aerial photography.
TRIMMING AND ROAD ORTHO IMAGING FOR NIGHT IMAGES BY ONBOARD HIGH SENSITIVITY CONSUMER GRADE DIGITAL CAMERAS
Authors: Sugimori J. , Chikatsu H.
Published: May 2022

Abstract. Various kinds of cameras have been utilizing as the onboard cameras in the construction of Intelligent Transport Systems. In recent years, utilization of the high sensitivity consumer grade digital cameras at night is attracting attention from the viewpoint of avoiding the effects of sunlight and congestion of people and cars. However, due to the image taken by the onboard cameras is a perspective projection image, the image is projected small at the far from car and the effect of the lens distortion will be greater at points far from the image center. In order to avoid these issues, the lower part of the projection image or a bird's-eye view image is used, but the imaging of the bonnet part caused by the car models and tilts of the cameras becomes a new issue. Furthermore, a bird's-eye view image at night has to be trimmed to coincide with the irradiation range because the irradiation distance and range of the headlights are limited. On the other hand, feature quantities such as vanishing points and feature points on the lane have been used for projective transformation from a perspective projection image to a bird's-eye view image, but the projective transformation based on feature quantities is an ill-posed problem.Therefore, this paper discusses a quantitative trimming method based on projective transformation that does not depend on feature quantities and coincide with the irradiation range of the headlights.

Published: May 2022

Abstract. A payload was designed and implemented to do real-time and continuous lightning detection which can be used on remote sensing satellite. The payload consists of sensor unit and electronics unit. Based on the analysis of lighting signal spectral characteristics, the sensor unit adopts ultra-narrowband filtering technology to realize lightning signal spectral filtering, and uses high frame rate area array CMOS device as photosensitive element to obtain image information. In order to reduce the complexity and hardware resources of the electronics unit, a continuous mean elimination method is used to detect lightning signals according to the instantaneous characteristics of lightning. The self-adaptive double threshold recognition method is utilized to detect the recognized lightning signal, which significantly reduces the detection time with a detection rate up to 95%. The electronics unit has the function of quick adjustment of detection threshold through instruction, which provides a more flexible application space for lightning characteristics analysis on the ground. In addition, the system can be used to detect other point or surface target by the change of optical design according to the different characteristics of the detection target, such as the large-scale fire disaster or military target.
AN OPTIMIZED REMOTE SENSING RECOGNITION APPROACH FOR STRAW BURNING IN HENAN PROVINCE, CHINA
Authors: Lin Y. , Rong Y. , Yu J. , Zhang H. C. , Li L.
Published: May 2022

Abstract. In the paper, Henan Province with prevalent straw burning was taken as the study case. Aimed at remote sensing recognition of the straw burning fire points in a large-scale area with complex terrain and climate conditions, an optimized recognition strategy of straw burning was proposed based on the MOD021KM data. In our new recognition strategy, the threshold determination method was optimised by systematic statistical analysis of spectral features. Then the non-straw burning fire points were eliminated by extracting the agricultural land from MCD12Q1 image. Thus, the true straw-burning fire points were determined. The results showed that the recognition accuracy of straw burning fire points was effectively improved by optimized threshold determination method.
WINDMILLS DETECTION USING DEEP LEARNING ON SENTINEL SATELLITE IMAGES
Authors: Tertre M. , Laurençot T.
Published: May 2022

Abstract. Automatic detection of objects from Earth Observation images is still a challenge for researchers. This paper aims at extracting automatically windmills on mid-resolution images (10-meter resolution), based on Sentinel satellite products. Sentinel-2 optical images are obvious candidates for our study. At 10-meter resolution, a windmill is represented with only a few pixels. We also start to consider Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Sentinel-1 images but no particular windmill radar response on GRD (Ground Range Multi-look Detected) products seemed to be relevant.Considering the maturity of deep learning techniques for object detection in computer vision, we explore the use of deep neural networks for windmill detection on remote sensing images. For that purpose, we had to create the training data sets but we took advantage of the availability of many Sentinel images and of the use of automated labelling as the objects are georeferenced. The proposed approach relies on the U-Net framework, reformulating our problem of object detection in terms of semantic segmentation. We trained several neural networks on different data sets emanating from different countries. That enabled us to measure the performance of detection within a country but also across two countries (training on a country and predicting on another country). The results show the ability of detection of such small objects with respect to the resolution and we obtain various levels of performances depending on the trained and test data sets.
HELAL KAZANÇ, İNSAN ONURU VE ERDEMLİ TOPLUM İNŞASI: İLGİLİ HADİSLER ÜZERİNDEN İKTİSADİ BİR DEĞERLENDİRME
Authors: ERDEM Ekrem
Published: May 2022

Bu çalışmada amaç, helal kazanç konusunu mümkün olduğunca sahih kaynaklardan derlediğimiz hadislerden hareketle incelemektir. Bunu ya-parken elbette konuyla ilgili ayetler de dikkate alınacak ve günümüze dair değerlendirmeler yapılacaktır. Böylece, günümüzde Müslümanların çok önemli bir sorunu olan temiz ve helal yollardan kazanç elde etmek suretiyle ahlaklı bir iktisadi hayatı sürdürme konusunda Hz. Peygamber’in öğretilerinin ortaya konması, çalışmanın en önemli hedefidir. Fakat, çalışmanın kapsamı oldukça geniş olduğu için, elimizdeki çalışmada sadece helal kazancın meşruiyetinin altında yatan temel dinamikler olarak insan fıtratının (tabiatının) ya da yaradılış formatının buna uygunluğu, dolayısıyla, insanın muhannete muhtaç olmayıp onurunu koruması için piyasa şartları altında tevekkül halini muhafaza ederek maişet yolunda her türlü meşakkate katlanarak rızkını temin etmesine, son olarak da bu hususta Hz. Peygamber’in hayatından örneklere dair hadisler incelenmiştir. Çalışmada ulaşılan sonucu kısaca özetlemek gerekirse, İslam’da kazancın meşruiyeti onun helal olmasıyla; yani, İslami kurallar dikkate alınarak elde edilmesiyle bir anlam ifade eder. Kişinin dindarlığının kalitesi ve onuru da önemli ölçüde kişinin kazancının helalliğine bağlıdır. Resmi düzenlemelere göre meşru olarak görülen bazı faaliyet alanlarının, gelir kaynaklarının, iş yapma biçimlerinin İslami bir hayat tarzında meşru/helal olarak addedilmesi söz konusu olmayabilir. Kaldı ki, cari hukuk ve düzenlemeler ya da örf ve adetler bakımından meşru kabul edilen her şey İslami açıdan makbul olmayabilir. Çalışmanın İslami iktisat alanında çalışanların dikkate alabilecekleri bir kaynak olma potansiyeli taşımasını ümit ediyoruz.

Los resultados demuestran una evolución en el tratamiento periodístico, en línea con las propuestas creativas impulsadas desde el ámbito internacional, por lo que podemos señalar que el año 2019 parece haber alumbrado una nueva forma de hacer periodismo, más cercana y responsable.
Aprender a vivir en un mundo emocionalizado. Una mirada a Hume
Authors: Seoane Pinilla Julio
Published: May 2022

Hoy vivimos en un mundo emocionalizado donde las discusiones éticas, políticas o culturales y estéticas se ofrecen siempre en forma de emociones (y se legitiman por ser sentimientos o afectos) y es difícil encontrar un espacio para la reflexión razonada. Creo que atender a la reflexión de Hume sobre la estética nos puede ayudar aquí, pues aunque comienza su conocido ensayo “Of the Standard of Taste” con la asunción de que sobre gustos nada hay escrito, Hume permite construir un espacio de discusión (aunque no enteramente racional) acerca de cuestiones evidentemente sentimentales. Un espacio que se distingue por la conversación y la sociabilidad que supone esta: lo bello, como cualquier emoción, se educa en la charla que establecemos con quienes conversamos. No hay nada previo a la misma.
Los principios generales del estado de naturaleza rousseauniano: De la naturaleza humana a la sociedad civil
Authors: Gómez Cantos Juan Antonio
Published: May 2022

En este artículo se pretende mostrar cómo evoluciona la teoría social y política de Jean- Jacques Rousseau. Para ello, se toma la hipótesis conceptual que plantea el filósofo de Ginebra y los límites hacia los que se dirige. Se establece, también, una comparación entre lo que preceda a la sociedad civil (el propio estado de naturaleza) y lo que la sucede (la construcción política del contrato social).
Para dar una explicación a esta teoría, vamos a adentrarnos en algunos puntos de la vida de Rousseau, ya que consideramos que gran parte de su pensamiento político y social bebe de la fuente vital del filósofo.
La etapa inmanente de la Estética de Buenaventura desde sus fuentes de inspiración
Authors: Salvador-González José María
Published: May 2022

De entre el ingente corpus teórico del pensador franciscano Buenaventura de Bagnoregio, hemos focalizado aquí nuestra atención sobre el libro titulado Itinerarium mentis in Deum (1259), porque en él nuestro autor condensa el núcleo esencial de su peculiar Estética. Restringiendo aún más el enfoque investigador, en el presente artículo nos limitamos a analizar la primera de las tres fases o niveles en que Buenaventura estructura su Estética, a saber, la fase que podríamos denominar Estética inmanente. En ella, según el autor, el ser humano puede llegar al conocimiento de Dios, si considera los seres materiales como vestigios e imágenes bellas que reflejan visiblemente la invisible belleza divina. En la segunda parte de nuestro artículo, intentamos poner en evidencia algunas tesis de filósofos precedentes que parecen haber inspirado casi con certeza a San Buenaventura en los enunciados básicos de su Estética inmanente.
Assessment of Wastewater Irrigation Impact on Soils and Crops in Peri-Urban Area of Nagpur, Maharashtra, India
Authors: A. R. Mhaske  , C. S. Pangul  , S. S. Balpande
Published: May 2022

The wastewater from Nagpur city, Maharashtra, discharged into Nag River, is used for irrigating vegetables and other agricultural crops since 1990 without any consideration to soil, plant and human health. A study was conducted in five villages viz., Pawangaon, Kem, Adaka, Titur, and Chitapur of Nagpur district during 2018 -2019 to assess the impact of wastewater irrigation on soils and crops in peri-urban area of Nagpur. The soils, under long term use of wastewater irrigation, had relatively lower bulk density (1.27-1.33 Mg.m-3) and saturated hydraulic conductivity (1.40-1.48 cm.h-1). Available N, P, K status of those soils was appreciably higher as compared to the soils irrigated by open well water. The concentrations of Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Cd, Cr, Pb, and Co in wastewater irrigated soils were comparatively higher, and were above the recommended safe limits. The concentrations of micronutrients (Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu) and heavy metals (Cd, Cr, Pb, Co) in wastewater irrigated crops like wheat, chickpea, and spinach were higher than those of open well irrigated crops. This study suggested that the consumption of vegetables grown on wastewater irrigated fields might prove hazardous for human health leading to several fatal diseases.

Published: May 2022

Marginal and small farmers of the state of West Bengal suffer from frequent droughts due to erratic rainfall patterns, high evaporation rates, and recurrent water scarcity. The majority of farmers in West Bengal have farm ponds that are grossly underutilized due to several social and technical constraints. In this study, the roles of various socio-economic factors on management of existing farm ponds were examined using a binary logit model to understand their contributions to sustainability of the livelihoods of marginal and small farmers of the region. A field survey of 155 farm ponds, owned by farmers with different socio-economic backgrounds, was undertaken in Kharagpur Blocks (I, II) of West Medinipur district in West Bengal. The study also included water budget, water quality, and economic analyses of three farm ponds having different management practices, viz. managed bentonite lined pond, managed unlined pond, and unmanaged unlined pond. Water budget analysis revealed that about 610 mm of extra water depth could be saved in bentonite-lined ponds compared to unlined ponds. Also, the water quality (as per the threshold values recommended for aquaculture life) was not deteriorated due to bentonite lining. The study suggested that the best way of utilizing pond water includes simultaneous water use for irrigation and fish cultivation, which is possible with lined ponds. Therefore, lined farm ponds with locally available cheap lining material might be a suitable intervention in the context of the socioeconomic development of small and marginal farmers of the Kharagpur region. The pond management was significantly influenced by household economic factors and pond related factors.

Ebeveynlerin, önemli bir kısmının HPV aşısı hakkında bilgi sahibi olmadığı ve kız çocuklarına HPV aşısı yaptırmadığı, HPV aşısına yönelik zarar, engel ve belirsizlik algılarının yüksek olduğu, aşının etkinliğine yönelik algılarının ise orta düzeyde olduğu saptamıştır. Ebeveynlerin HPV aşısına yönelik algılarının olumlu yönde değişmesi için verilecek eğitimlerde HPV aşısına yönelik doğru bilgilendirmelerin yapılması ve HPV aşısının güvenlik profilinin vurgulanması önerilebilir.
Proven Solution to Reducing Medical Malpractice Claims Nationwide
Authors: Pettingill Bernard F. , Tewes Federico R.
Published: May 2022

Medical errors often lead to injury and sometimes death, as these serve as the basis for all medical malpractice claims in the United States. In 2021, over 250,000 deaths occurred as a direct result of medical errors [1]. However, one New England Journal of Medicine article reported that in 2016 a comprehensive study which analyzed 15 years of malpractice claims concluded: “Just one out of every 100 U.S. doctors is responsible for 32% of all malpractice claims that result in monetary payouts to patients” [2]. The majority of human errors that occur in medicine are unintentional. Consequently, the challenges in medical malpractice policymaking center on the interactions of three relevant systems, each with its own complex rules and regulations: health care, tort, and insurance [3].

This study revolves around the idea that using the visual language of comics to communicate scholarly knowledge benefits learners in higher education. The researcher transformed the written academic prose of pages 58-70 of Mayer's Multimedia Learning (2009) into a 12-page information comic with help of expert informants and found that it is possible to create an information comic that communicates academic ideas provided the researcher has 1) a high level of visual literacy, 2) accepts that intersemiotic translation always leads to new meaning, 3) accepts that emotion will become part of the final product, and 4) accepts that it takes considerable time to create the imagery. Based on the literature, experience and expert feedback, the researcher identifies 12 possible steps for the design of information comics and six reasons why information comics demonstrate great potential for learning.
The Allegory and Metaphor in Visual Arts
Authors: Abdelfatah Esraa
Published: May 2022

Throughout the history of civilizations, the language of visual art has expressed the hidden concepts under the apparent forms and the invisible deduced through the visible. Furthermore, this process takes place through various mediums to convey complex and abstract ideas and meanings through symbols, allegories, and metaphors. Additionally, all those mediums represent hidden meaning and veiled language, a meticulously packaged lesson ready to reveal itself. This research will provide a new method of seeing and interpreting the creative experience of visual art from many aspects by monitoring and studying the development of symbolic thinking through theories of reading, receiving, and interpretation. This, in turn, requires the necessity of dealing with the artwork as a concept and not just looking at its formal aspects only. Thus, this calls for a reconsideration of visual and conceptualism metaphors and tropes in artists' practices, using metaphorical structures as one of the most important ways of contemporary thinking.
Visual Literacy and Reflective Visual Journals
Authors: Guglietti Maria Victoria
Published: May 2022

This paper explores the contribution of reflective visual journals to our understanding of visual literacy. The discussion is based on a phenomenographic analysis of 232 reflective visual journal entries and a thematic analysis of nine interviews with student participants in an undergraduate visual culture class. Reflective visual journals require students to reflect on, analyze, and produce their own images in response to their learning about visual culture. The paper calls for a systematic study of visual reflection as a visual literacy experience. It discusses “concept re-enactment,” a visual reflective practice that results in the performance of a concept or an argument. This practice complicates our assessment of visual literacy skills as concept re-enactment is not fully captured by students’ visual production. This study, therefore, argues that concept re-enactment reveals visual literacy as a multidimensional experience involving practices that are neither fully “visual” nor captured by the notion of visual competence.
Cognitive Empowerment

Published: May 2022

Due to the exceptional situation left by the war in Syria, a huge number of Syrian refugees are lacking the proper education. As a result, the International Cultural Academy has decided to take the initiative to design a special program based on the elements and tools of visual language to help these refugees raise their awareness and capabilities and thus compensate for the severe shortage in the knowledge field. This training program is designed in an unconventional way, so that it is dealt with interactively, and there is still a room for development. We started working on this program short time ago relatively, through workshops that included refugee women from several countries, and the result was very positive, but we still need more time so that we can evaluate performance and accurately monitor the results.
The Holding Project
Authors: Pryor Ashley , Miner Barbara , Fearnside Lee
Published: May 2022

The authors argue that community-engaged arts practices like The Holding Project can and should be brought into closer alliance with each other and can be mutually beneficial. We suggest that the 2011 Visual Literacy Competency Standards are entrenched in a Western Enlightenment worldview. While the values undergirding these worldviews may be valuable in some contexts, they are not universally shared and serve as an inadequate foundation for collaborative, community-engaged arts projects. Further, the 2011 Standards and the proposed “Framework for Visual Literacy in Higher Education” (ACRL-VLRT, 2021) currently under review may not go far enough to model a more inclusive and egalitarian approach to community-engaged work. We hope that by calling attention to the implicit Eurocentric bias inherent in the 2011 standards, we can make a small contribution to the ongoing efforts within the visual literacy community to support “social justice through visual practice” (ACRL-VLTF, 2021).

Great Museum Game (GMG) are short-term art educational projects carried out directly in museums in the context of museum collections. GMG is a synthesis of tabletop and role-playing game forms designed to immerse participants in creative activities, providing mobilization of cognitive motivation and creative will, activation of imagination. The games have no competitive purposes. The participants create their own artistic reality in the context of the museum, give birth to new ideas, metaphors, and images. The games are aimed on motivated teenagers from 14 to 18 years old, engaged in artistic activities on a permanent basis. Five GMG-format projects will be presented in this research.

Birdcage | Gramophone Feather | Listen Hand is a surrealist inspired, digital collage. This work investigates our innate human ability to find connections from seemingly unconnected themes, addressing concepts of freedom, empathy, and vulnerability. A predominantly monochromatic colour palette evokes feelings of nostalgia, yet the pastel pink typography, (a homage to the surrealist parlour game, the exquisite corpse whereby 3 ideas are combined) suggests an outlook towards serendipitous connection.

Published: May 2022

Early Childhood Education is crucial to the holistic growth of zero to eight years old children. This growth and development can to a large extent be realized through the provision and use of appropriate physical infrastructure. This study aimed to find out the status of Early Childhood physical infrastructure and how it influences participation rates, an aspect of internal efficiency in Public Primary Schools. Using stratified and simple random sampling techniques to get 39 public primary schools from 5 sub-districts; 39 primary headteachers, 156 primary teachers, and 39 ECE teachers. The study used a correlation design and collected data using questionnaires, a documentary analysis guide, and observation schedules. Data were analyzed using SPSS. Results were presented using percentages, frequencies, means, standard deviations, and inferential statistics of Pearson correlation. Results showed that there was a positive correlation between physical infrastructures such as kitchens, toilets for boys and girls, classrooms that are well ventilated, playgrounds, sports facilities, strong tall fences, furniture in good condition, and water points and internal efficiency (r=0.653, n=37, p<.05). The study concludes that there is a positive correlation between physical infrastructure and participation rates. There is a need for the county government in partnership with headteachers and parents to provide adequate physical infrastructure in Early Childhood Education.

Published: May 2022

Objetivo: Describir un caso de quiste odontogénico inflamatorio cuya presentación imagenológica no es la habitual.
Caso clínico: Acude a la clínica profesional de Patología Oral de la Universidad Andrés Bello una paciente de género femenino de 13 años, sin antecedentes mórbidos, con un hallazgo radiográfico de lesión mixta ubicada entre los premolares inferiores derechos. Es derivada al posgrado de cirugía oral y maxilofacial para que le realicen una biopsia excisional de la lesión con una hipótesis diagnóstica de tumor odontogénico adenomatoide. Una vez realizado el estudio histopatológico, se define la lesión como quiste odontogénico inflamatorio, que por las características clínicas-radiográficas podría corresponder con un quiste residual de un diente temporal.
Debido a la variabilidad en la presentación clínica e imagenológica de las lesiones quísticas maxilofaciales, el estudio anatomopatológico es imprescindible para un correcto diagnóstico y tratamiento.
Evaluación radiográfica de 5000 tratamientos endodónticos realizados en premolares y molares mandibulares y maxilares en una población en Argentina
Authors: Cantarini Carlos , Goldberg Fernando
Published: May 2022

Objetivo: Evaluar radiográficamente tratamientos endodónticos del sector posterior de la cavidad bucal y comparar la frecuencia de aceptabilidad en cada pieza dentaria involucrada.
Materiales y métodos: Se evaluaron 5000 radiografías de archivo de tratamientos endodónticos realizados aproximadamente entre 2005 y 2019 en premolares y molares mandibulares y maxilares en Argentina. Se consideraron tratamientos correctos e incorrectos de acuerdo con: 1) conformación de la preparación quirúrgica; 2) límite apical de la obturación; 3) homogeneidad de la obturación. Se obtuvo la frecuencia absoluta y relativa de correctos e incorrectos. El análisis entre frecuencias y pieza dentaria se realizó con la prueba de chi cuadrado y el cálculo del coeficiente V de Cramer. Para la comparación entre grupos de piezas dentarias se utilizó la partición del valor de chi cuadrado obtenido en los correspondientes grados de libertad. Nivel de significación P <0.05.
Resultados: La partición del valor de chi cuadrado no mostró diferencias significativas entre primeros y segundos premolares mandibulares. Las otras comparaciones exhibieron diferencias significativas.
Conclusiones: Un alto porcentaje de los tratamientos endodónticos de la población estudiada tiene por lo menos una condición que permite categorizarlos como incorrectos según el criterio establecido en este trabajo. Este porcentaje es más preponderante en anatomías complejas.
