Authors: Kobzev Anatolij , Murzin Mykhajlo , Hridasov Illia
Published: April 2024

The subject–coordinate measurement methods in ground electronic intelligence (ELINT) stations. The goal is to conduct a comparative analysis of two options for the composition ground ELINT stations in terms of accuracy of measuring coordinate information. The tasks to be solved are as follows: assessing the accuracy of determining the coordinates of the time difference of arrival method (TDOAМ) and hybrid method (HM); obtaining analytical ratios for estimating the root-mean-square error (RMSE) of the accuracy of measuring the altitude of radio emission sources (RES) of these methods; on the basis of the obtained estimates and analytical ratios, a comparative analysis of the methods, under conditions where the accuracy of the coordinate information obtained by both methods is commensurate; and development of recommendations regarding the practical application of HM coordinate measurements. The methods used are: the theory of measurements and the theory of evaluation of coordinate information. The following results were obtained: a comparative analysis of the TDOAМ and HM was performed according to the RMSE of the determination of plane coordinates and the altitude of the RES. The accuracy assessment was performed in a known way, based on the linearization of the functional dependence between the measured primary parameters (range differences, elevation angle) and spatial coordinates by expanding in a Taylor series with the deduction of the first two terms of the series. Calculations have shown that the presence of the third side station has very little effect on the accuracy of determining plane coordinates. Significant differences appear only in the results of estimating the RMSE of the RES altitude. To compare the methods, analytical relationships were obtained for estimating the RMSE of the altitude measurement. The condition is determined under which the accuracy of determining the altitude for the HM is not worse than that for the TDOAМ (the accuracy is the same). Starting from this value and further, when using the HM, the altitude is determined more accurately. Conclusions. An HM of high-precision determination of 3 coordinates in ELINT stations, based on measuring two distance differences and direction finding (DF) in the elevation plane, can, with a smaller number of side stations (two instead of three), provide accuracy no worse than the known TDOAM. However, this requires that the RMSE value for DF in elevation should be tenths of degrees. The practical application of HM is possible for the issuance of target designations on air defense missile systems radar.

Published: April 2024

This article describes and investigates the planning aspect of military actions aimed at destroying enemy targets with the help of an attack drone swarm. This study attempts to solve the task of operational-tactical planning of a massive attack on enemy targets with the help of combat drones, which have different combat potential characteristics. It analyzes the problems of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) swarms’ usage, which ensures maximum efficiency during combat operations. The article shows that in order to plan effective military operations, it is necessary to form the following logistical sequence: identification of relevant targets set, formation of drones into a swarm to attack targets, distribution of drones by targets, and planning flight routes of a drone swarm in conditions of military threats. It concludes that for the effective use of a combat drone swarm, it is necessary to plan logistical actions in advance to inflict maximum damage on the enemy and successfully fulfill the operational and tactical goals of the military leadership. The purpose of this study is to create information technology models that will allow planning logistical military actions for the effective use of combat drone swarms to defeat enemy targets. This article describes a systematic representation of logistical military operations for combat drone swarms. It also analyzes enemy targets, which are represented in the form of a priority list with the characteristics of relevance, the necessary combat potential to hit the targets, the risks of approaching the targets, and the flight time of the drones. From the list of targets, a sublist is formed, considering the combat potential of the drone swarm and the necessary potential to defeat the selected enemy targets. The optimization model helps to distribute the swarm of drones into groups to achieve the enemy targets and destroy them. The movement of drones is planned considering flight zones, possible anti-drone actions of the enemy, and the risks of military threats. Any Logic agent simulation platform can be used to create a simulated flight model of a drone swarm to selected enemy targets. Modeling makes it possible to form rational flight routes of a drone swarm under conditions of military threats from the enemy. An example is given to illustrate the formation of logistical actions for planning a massive attack on enemy targets with the help of a drone swarm. The scientific novelty of this study is related to the solution of the urgent problem of planning logistical military operations for the effective use of a combat drone swarm to destroy enemy targets. The results of this study should be used for the operational and tactical planning of logistical military operations to defeat enemy targets with the help of a combat drone swarm.
Hedge performance of different asset classes in varying economic conditions
Authors: Mats Vladyslav
Published: April 2024

In the realm of long-term investment, strategic portfolio allocation is an essential tool, especially in relation to risk management and return optimisation. There are many ways to pursue optimal portfolio composition, and their effectiveness depends on many factors, including the investor’s goals, risk appetite, and investment horizon. One of the primary means of portfolio optimisation is diversification. The core idea of diversification is to maintain a diverse portfolio with weakly correlated assets that can vastly reduce portfolio exposure to different market stress factors. Diversification is a fundamental strategy in investment and portfolio management that is essential for mitigating risk and enhancing potential returns over the long term. By spreading investments across various asset classes, sectors, geographies, and investment styles, diversification helps reduce the volatility of the overall portfolio. The main subject of this study is the theoretical basis of portfolio diversification and the analysis of historical data to derive optimal strategies for using uncorrelated assets to improve portfolio performance. This paper examines the correlation dynamics between different asset classes, such as stocks, bonds, and alternative investments, and their response to changes in inflation, interest rates, and market volatility, and tests it with historical data to deduce the optimal strategies for using uncorrelated assets to improve portfolio performance. The findings of this study prove the variable relationship between asset classes under specific economic conditions. This study uses historical data to show how different asset classes can be optimally leveraged or adjusted to mitigate risks and capitalise on opportunities presented by shifting economic indicators. This reveals that the hedging benefits of equities, bonds, and gold depend greatly on interest rates, market volatility, and inflation. It also provides guidelines for investors on optimal portfolio allocation and risk management. In conclusion, dynamic portfolio management is an essential tool for reducing the portfolio’s overall volatility while maximising returns. The diversification performance of different financial asset classes depends on major economic indicators such as inflation, interest rates, and market volatility. Investors seeking to optimise their portfolios in anticipation of or in response to economic changes, aiming to maximise returns while controlling for risk, can leverage these results.

Development of the product for pre-milking cow-udder care on the basis of nisin and lactic acid
Authors: Trukhanovych T. , Perkiy Yu.
Published: April 2024

Nisin is a natural antibacterial substance widely used in the food industry and other spheres. As nisin has no bactericidal effect on gram-negative bacteria, it is combined with organic acids. The work aimed at developing a product for pre-milking cow udder care based on nisin and lactic acid. The bactericidal effect of the solutions of nisin and lactic acid was determined using the method of radial diffusion in agar on test cultures S. aureus (ATCC 25923), E. coli (055К59 №3912/41), and Str. uberis (field strain). In the experiment was used nisin produced by Glory Chem Co., Ltd. (China), lactic acid food 80 % solution (“Klebrig”, Belgium). The content of lactic acid in 1.5 % solution was sufficient for detecting bactericidal action on cultures S. aureus і Str. uberis, and 2 % for E. coli. Nisin solution had a lower bactericidal effect on coccal forms of micro-organisms compared to lactic acid and was ineffective for gram-negative rods. S  aureus cultures were sensitive to nisin in the case of 1,5 and 2 % content in the solution, and Str. uberis – in the case of 0.5 to 2 %. The study showed that the minimal substance content in the study variant of the agent was 1 % nisin and 1 % lactic acid, to which E. coli and S. aureus cultures are sensitive, and Str. uberis – highly sensitive. In the case of 1 % nisin and 1.5 % lactic acid content, all the studied micro-organisms are sensitive to such substances combination. In the case of the content of 1 % nisin and 2 % lactic acid, they are practically susceptible. Thus, when combined, nisin and lactic acid enhance each other's bactericidal effect and are more effective when used on test cultures of micro-organisms than they are separately. We have developed the studied agent variant for pre-milking cow udder care with the content of nisin – 1 %, lactic acid – 2 %, glycerine – 4 %, allantoin – 0.5 %, and water up to 100 %. The minimum inhibitory concentration of the agent in case of 30-second exposition on test cultures S. aureus and E. coli was in case of dissolution 1:1 and for Str. uberis – in case of dissolution 1:15.

Credit Card Fraud presents significant challenges across various domains, comprising, healthcare, insurance, finance, and e-commerce.  The principal objective of this research was to examine the efficacy of Machine Learning techniques in detecting credit card fraud. Four key Machine Learning techniques were employed, notably, Support Vector Machine, Logistic Regression, Random Forest, and Artificial Neural Network. Subsequently, model performance was evaluated using Precision, Recall, Accuracy, and F-measure metrics. While all models demonstrated high accuracy rates (99%), this was largely due to the dataset's size, with 284,807 attributes and only 492 fraudulent transactions. Nevertheless, accuracy solely did not provide a comprehensive comparison metric. Support Vector Machine showed the highest recall (89.5), correctly identifying the most positive instances, highlighting its efficacy in detecting true positives. On the other hand, the Artificial Neural Network model exhibited the highest precision (79.4, indicating its capability to make accurate identifications, making it proficient in optimistic predictions.
Nietzsche and the Birth of Joker
Authors: Hwang Younghyun
Published: April 2024

In The Birth of Tragedy, Nietzsche employs the dichotomy of Apollonian and Dionysian to explain artistic phenomena. The film Joker shows the origin story of the Joker, a comic-book supervillain. This paper offers a reading of Joker through Nietzsche’s ideas from The Birth of Tragedy. By doing so, it aims to achieve three things: first, to demonstrate the relevance of Nietzsche’s aesthetic theory in analyzing culture; second, to reveal the political dimension of Nietzsche’s thought in The Birth of Tragedy; and third, to shed light on the ominous implications of Joker’s popularity.
Relevance of Embodied Practice to Philosophical Understanding
Authors: Wold Hieronymus
Published: April 2024

In this paper I argue that meditation has a direct bearing upon philosophical discourse by enabling us to distance ourselves from the basic structure of subjectivity that often limits the scope of reason. Recent neurobiological hypotheses are discussed in conjunction with the method of hermeneutic phenomenology to argue that interpretations on the level of our neurobiology underly and construct our experience of ourselves as subjects and the sense of explicit rational understanding that arises from it. This implies that prediscursive embodied practice can play a crucial role in freeing our philosophical understanding from implicit assumptions.
More Than We Can Chew
Authors: Vitarbo August
Published: April 2024

Western cultural norms resulting from patriarchal oppression contribute to the development of eating disorders in women. As represented by various philosophers, social factors can contribute to self-discipline of the body, which characterizes most image-based eating disorders. Critics of fundamental texts argue over the best way to engage in feminist discussion concerning these eating disorders, given that anorectics are often excluded from mainstream discourse. This paper proposes that the feminist community must approach conversations about eating disorders in three steps: recognition, sympathy, and acknowledgement. This is the only way that we can move towards addressing the cultural causes of individual pathologies.
“Una libidine di saggezza”: Amelia Rosselli’s Documento
Authors: Peterson Thomas
Published: April 2024

This study of Amelia Rosselli’s third major collection follows the chronological order of the poems’ composition, clarifying the poet’s intentions to embark on a path that privileges internal objectivity and communication. Careful attention is paid to the derivation from Petrarch and medieval Italian love poetry. The love theme is tied to a spiritual problematic evident in the book’s extensive use of sacred and Christological imagery. This finds the subject in often ambiguous situations of tension and trial that nevertheless express her goal of freedom in defense of the dignity of the person. This religious-philosophical vein is likened to the current of personalism that emerged in France and Europe in the years of Rosselli’s formation.
