Discrimination between parkinsonian tremor and essential tremor using artificial neural network with hybrid features
Authors: Hossen Abdulnasir
Published: December 2021

BACKGROUND: Essential tremor (ET) and the tremor in Parkinson’s disease (PD) are the two most common pathological tremors with a certain overlap in the clinical presentation. OBJECTIVE: The main purpose of this work is to use an artificial neural network to select the best features and to discriminate between the two types of tremors. The features used are of hybrid type obtained from two different algorithms: the statistical signal characterization (SSC) of the signal describing its morphology, and the soft-decision wavelet-decomposition (SDWD) features extracted from the accelerometer and surface EMG signals. METHODS: The SSC method is used to obtain morphology-based features of the spectrum of the accelerometer and two surface EMG signals. The SDWD technique is used in this work to obtain the approximate spectral representation of both accelerometer and the two surface EMG signals. Two sets of data (training and test) are used in this paper. The training set consists of 21 ET subjects and 19 PD subjects, while the test set consists of 20 ET and 20 PD subjects. A neural network of the type feed forward back propagation has been used to combine best SSC features and best SDWD features of the accelerometer and EMG signals. RESULTS: Efficiency result of 92.5% was obtained using best hybrid features. CONCLUSIONS: The artificial neural network has been used successfully to combine two types of features in an automatic discrimination system between PD and ET.

BACKGROUND: In recent years the global landscape of pharmaceutical development has evolved drastically in order to adapt to innovative products such as immunotherapy, regenerative medicines and cell and gene therapy, all offering the hope to cure numerous untreated diseases. The global COVID-19 pandemic also led competent authorities in charge of approval of new medicines to implement adapted regulatory pathways allowing early access to innovative treatments and vaccines. New challenges are to be overcome, it is the short development time, or the small patient populations, or again drug product features requiring complete new production, testing and distribution strategies. OBJECTIVE: This paper provides a short overview of the different adaptations required to allow the development of such innovative medicines. METHOD: Several drug development strategies for products under clinical development or recently approved were assessed. RESULTS: Fully integrated strategies encompassing research, non-clinical, clinical and product manufacturing development along with adapted regulatory pathways, anticipation of market access and supported by risk based are important. In such fast pace, the development of relevant manufacturing processes and test methods assessing quality, safety and efficacy of new drugs falls on the critical path and requires particular attention, anticipation and detailed planning as early as possible in order to ensure successful filing and approval. CONCLUSION: Insights within innovative products approved recently reveal the importance of defining a solid chemistry manufacturing and control strategy early on as part of clinical development. Interactions with agencies at key milestones of development are also essential to reduce risks, prioritize development to support safety and allow early access to patients.

Authors: Kuzmenko Olena , Zagumenna Vira
Published: December 2021

The purpose of the article is to outline the processes of transformation of the main functions of a modern library in meeting the constantly growing information needs of users and strengthening the role of libraries in the context of the digitalization of society. The methodology is based on a set of general scientific methods (analysis, synthesis, abstraction, generalization) and approaches (systemic, socio-communicative, and innovative), as well as the comparison and relationship of theory and practice. The scientific novelty of this work is to expand ideas about the role and functions of libraries and their impact on the development of modern society in the context of digitalization. Conclusions. Expanding its functions, the library is increasingly introducing new means of accessing, creating, and processing information, using digital technologies and modern means of communication. The analysis of library functions allowed us to determine the essential (basic) functions of a modern library in the conditions of transformational changes. Among them: information, communication. Scientific libraries are characterized by the expansion (transformation) of the traditional information function into information-analytical. Such derivative functions as educational, training, leisure, etc. acquire a certain strengthening in the activity of public libraries. Information and communication functions are also being strengthened, regardless of the type of library. Thus, today the activities of libraries are enriched by the content of information, communication, cultural, educational, leisure, and other functions, which promotes interaction with the environment, the establishment of democratic and humanistic principles of development, ensuring free access to information.
Keywords: transformation, functions of libraries, information needs of users, digitalization, civil society.
Déficit gemelos en Colombia: ¿existen? ¿Qué causa qué? ¿Cuál es el grado de impacto?
Authors: Garrido-Tejada Dayra , Restrepo-Ángel Sergio , Rincón-Castro Hernán
Published: December 2021

Los objetivos de este documento son analizar para Colombia si existe una relación entre el desbalance ahorro-inversión público y el desbalance externo con datos anuales desde 1970 hasta 2019 y, si la hay, evaluar qué causa qué y estimar el impacto de una perturbación del causante sobre el otro antes y después de la crisis financiera internacional entre 2007 y 2009. La metodología empírica utiliza pruebas de causalidad de Granger, un modelo VAR estándar y regresiones de proyecciones locales de Jordà (2005), que permiten estimar un modelo de regresión uniecuacional y funciones de impulso respuesta con choques plenamente identificados. Los resultados obtenidos no rechazan la presencia de los déficits gemelos pero la causalidad estadística se presenta del balance externo al balance público, en contravía de lo que predice la teoría keynesiana de economía abierta, por un lado, y la hipótesis de equivalencia ricardiana, por el otro. Se estima que una perturbación de un punto porcentual del desbalance externo aumenta en promedio el desbalance público en 0,25 puntos porcentuales en el segundo año y 0,32 puntos porcentuales al tercer año. También se encuentra que el impacto sobre el desbalance público de una perturbación del desbalance externo es mayor después de la crisis financiera internacional.

The production of parts and (or) finished products in electronics, mechanical engineering and other industries is inextricably linked with the control of the accuracy and cleanliness of the processed surfaces. Currently existing meters of parameters of statistically uneven surfaces, both contact and non-contact have some disadvantages, as well as limitations due to methods and design features of measurement. Speckle interferometric methods for measuring parameters of statistically uneven surfaces make it possible to get away from some disadvantages inherent in existing methods and measurements. The use of methods of statistical radio engineering, methods of optimization of statistical solutions and estimates of parameters of predictive distributions for optimal radio engineering system synthesis is promising for the analysis and processing optical-electronic coherent laser space-time signals (speckle images) form with the laser radiation scattered by statistically uneven surfaces. This work synthesizes the optimal algorithm and structure for analyzing the parameters of statistically-temporal surfaces based on spatio-temporal processing of optical speckle interference signals and images using modern methods of optimal synthesis of radio engineering and coherent optoelectronic systems. In this work, an algorithm for processing optical signals scattered by statistically uneven surfaces is synthesized and investigated for problems of optimal estimation of parameters and statistical characteristics of statistically uneven surfaces. A block diagram of the optical contactless device for evaluating the parameters of statistically uneven surfaces is proposed. The limiting errors of estimation parameters of statistically uneven surfaces and the optimal installation angles of the emitters and the optical receiver are investigated. Equations are obtained for estimating the root-mean-square height of the ridges and the correlation radius of small-scale statistically uneven surfaces in the approximation of small perturbations. The proposed method for evaluating the parameters of statistically uneven surfaces allows to increase the accuracy of measurements, to conduct a non-contact assessment of the parameters - even statistically uneven surfaces that have geometric surface irregularities or located in hard-to-reach places, for example, grooves, holes, as well as products of cylindrical, spherical and other shapes.

Published: December 2021

El campo mundial de las artes escénicas se enfrenta a una adversidad histórica. Dado el malestar social y político actual, las organizaciones están reexaminando la producción de modelos con un enfoque en la equidad. A medida que la industria avanza hacia un futuro más inclusivo, la injusticia racial sistémica se convierte en el centro de atención. Sin embargo, sería un error ignorar un tema igualmente importante que niega a un número significativo de personas participar en la creación de una producción teatral: la accesibilidad y la inclusión. La discapacidad es interseccional: afecta a todas las razas, etnias, edades, géneros y religiones. Teniendo en cuenta que el 15% de la población mundial experimenta algún tipo de discapacidad, las artes escénicas en su conjunto solo pueden beneficiarse si se prioriza el acceso en todas las áreas. Este trabajo debe comenzar en los programas de formación universitaria en artes escénicas. Sostenemos que el verdadero cambio transformador comenzará en el aula; la cantera de futuros creadores. Este artículo aborda estos problemas tanto en Estados Unidos como en España. La metodología utilizada incluye entrevistas a profesionales de las artes escénicas y con experiencia en el sector de la discapacidad. Utilizando los principios de diseño universal, el objetivo del artículo es establecer las mejores prácticas para la accesibilidad y la inclusión en la educación de las artes escénicas.

Published: December 2021

Experimental studies of the non-stationary heat exchange in the system «environment I – body II» have been carried out. It is established that in the body II, which consists of the fluid and thin-walled metal envelope, the characteristic features of the regular thermal mode occur, i.e., cooling (heating) rate of the body II- m = const; heat transfer coefficient between the water (environment I) and body II is practically stable α1 = const; uneven temperatures distribution coefficient in the body II ψ = const.
This new notion of the heat transfer regularities in the body II is planned to apply for further development of the experimental-calculation method for the forecasting of the heat exchange intensity in the compound fluid media with limited information regarding thermophysical and rheological properties.

Students in vocational schools in Macedonia are less motivated and both enter and finish with ever decreasing knowledge. Teachers are still keeping to conventional ways of teaching. How to improve this situation? Is it possible that a Moodle eLearning environment will do this? Тhe project, by itself, will lead to easier communication between students and teachers, 24-hour support for the students learning needs, modern e-learning and improvement of the teachers Information and Communication Technology (ICT) competences. With implementation of this educational plan, both teachers and students will increase their use of ICT (e-tests and quizzes, online teaching, preparation of electronic multimedia lectures) and improvement of the group and team work among teachers and students as well. In surveys, teachers and students confirmed that they want to be trained to begin to use the eLearning environment, and underwent training. Also, video tutorials are prepared for that purpose. The results can be seen through observations and interviews in which students are asked if this project started to improve their knowledge skills and whether teachers have started to prepared electronic resources and activities for them.

Published: December 2021

Leadership in the public sector is a key variable that is expected to propel the achievement of Vision 2030. This is indeed crucial in the Education Sector which forms the basis of the social pillar of Vision 2030. The DEO and the DQASO are line managers with a primary role in policy implementation in the Ministry of Education. The purpose of the study was to investigate the perception of District Quality Assurance and Standards Officers towards the leadership styles of District Education Officers. The study established the characteristics of DQASOs, the leadership styles of the DEOs and identified the perceived challenges of DQASOs in Kenya. The study was guided by the Learning Organization theory of Peter Senge 1990 which emphasizes the need for involvement in decision making of those who carry out decisions for greater understanding and commitment.
Descriptive survey design was used and the study sample included a total of 29(10%) District Quality Assurance and Standards Officers (DQASOs) drawn from a population of 287 DQASOs from the 287 Districts in Kenya. The researchers made use of DQASOs who were attending the tenth 2011 Senior Management Course drawn from across Kenya as respondents. A questionnaire for DQASOs was designed to facilitate data collection. The study established that autocratic leadership style was dominant in most District Education offices with little consultation, teamwork and communication since the DEOs unilaterally made decisions and rarely accepted advice and criticism from members of staff. The DEOs’ personal traits greatly influenced their leadership styles. The DEOs were perceived to be unsupportive and rarely provided a conducive environment that motivated the staff. Most DEOs were not committed to supporting quality assurance and standards programmes in most Districts. The study recommended that the DEOs should integrate and employ varied leadership styles in management of education and delink their personal traits from office management. Clear communication channels between DEOs and staff should be established involve senior staff members in decision making. The DEOs should support Quality Assurance and Standards Programs in the Districts and provide a conducive environment for staff motivation.

Published: December 2021

Background In recent years, there have been ongoing outbreaks of mumps reported in Northern and North-Western Queensland, Western Australia and the Northern Territory, Australia. We aimed to define the epidemiology of mumps outbreaks in Central Queensland, Australia between October 2017 and October 2018 and evaluate the effectiveness of an additional dose of measles, mumps, rubella (MMR) vaccine. Methods A retrospective case control study was conducted, including outbreak investigations with laboratory-confirmed cases of mumps and subsequent comparison with matched controls. We analysed mandatory notifications from the Queensland Health Notifiable Conditions System database and immunisation information from the Queensland Health Vaccination Information and Admin System (VIVAS) and the Australian Immunisation Register. Results Between October 2017 and October 2018, there were 93 cases of mumps reported in Central Queensland with three distinct outbreaks: a discrete Indigenous community; a correctional facility; and a boarding school. Among all cases, 74 (79.6%) were fully vaccinated and 14 (15.1%) were partially vaccinated with MMR vaccine. Eighty-six cases (92.5%) were reported among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. In all outbreaks, an additional dose of MMR vaccine was offered with 35.4%, 73.6% and 35.8% of the target population being immunised in the discrete Indigenous community, the correctional facility and the boarding school, respectively. Prior to this additional dose of MMR, the mumps attack rate was 31.0 (95% confidence interval [95% CI]: 24.2–39.0) per 1000 population, compared to the post-additional dose MMR attack rate of 10.6 (95% CI: 6.7–15.9) per 1000 population. Conclusion An additional or booster dose of MMR should be included as an effective public health intervention strategy, particularly in communal or high-density living conditions to control mumps outbreaks in highly vaccinated populations.
Kur’ân’ın Sosyal Medya Sorumluluğu Bağlamında Yorumlanabilecek Müdahaleleri
Authors: AYHAN Bayram
Published: December 2021

Teknoloji çağını yaşayan modern insanlar internetten ve sosyal medyadan büyük oranda müstağni kalamamaktadır. Gerek dünya ölçeğinde gerekse toplumumuzda sosyal medya kullanım oranlarına dair veriler vakıayı açıkça ortaya koymaktadır. Makalenin konusu aktüel bir sorun olan sosyal medya sorumluluğunu ve dezenformasyonu Kur’ân’ın nüzul sürecindeki bazı olaylara müdahalesi bağlamında ele almaktır. Günümüzde siyasi veya dini saiklerle sosyal medyada hem kişileri hem de toplumun büyük kitlelerini ilgilendiren konulara dair gerçeği yansıtmayan paylaşımlar kişilerin veya kurumların itibarına kastetmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Yanı sıra mahremiyet ihlalleri yapılmakta ve toplumun ahlaki değer yargıları ve yönelimleri değişime uğramaktadır. Daha da tehlikeli olanı ise toplumda çatışma ortamı meydana getirebilecek provokatif paylaşımlara bilgisiz ve sorumsuzca aracı olunmasıdır. Mezkûr durumların yaşanmaması için bireylerin yapması gereken şey, sosyal medya içeriklerini incelemesi, yetkili kişi ve kurumların onayı ile doğruluğunu teyit ettikten sonra paylaşmasıdır. Bu bağlamda çalışmada Kur’ân’ın gerek bireysel, gerekse toplumsal mağduriyetler oluşturabilecek haberlerin paylaşımı konusundaki yaklaşımı ve bazı dönemlerdeki olaylara müdahalesi ele alınacaktır. Kur’ân nüzul sürecinde kendisine inansın ve inanmasın çok büyük kitlelere aynı anda ulaşabilen ilahi bir metindi. Dolayısıyla Kur’ân bir nevi sosyal medya işlevi gerçekleştirmiş ve bu rolünü de bazı dönemlerde aktif bir şekilde işlevselleştirmiştir. Bunun yanı sıra Kur’ân toplumsal hassasiyetlerin zirvede olduğu dönemde bir bilginin/haberin paylaşımı bağlamında sosyal medya sorumluluğuna dair ana umdeler şeklinde değerlendirilebilecek önemli tespitler ortaya koymuştur. Daha da önemlisi, bazı dönemlerde kirli planlarla toplumu manipüle etmek isteyenlere fırsat vermemiş, olayları en şeffaf yönüyle tavzih etmiştir. Bu bağlamda makalede Kur’ân’ın bu yöndeki müdahaleleri aktüel bir okumaya tabi tutulacak, birey ve toplumların sorumluluklarına dair evrensel mesajları ortaya çıkarılacaktır.
Morfolojik Açıdan Arap Dilinde İlhâk Olgusu

Arap dili morfolojisinde mezîd bâblar dışında, kendisinde bir veya iki harf ziyâde edilen bazı bâblar bulunmaktadır ki bunlara mülhak bâblar denmektedir. Bu bâblara uyarlanabilen kelimeler, sırf lafzî yönden başka kelimelere benzetilmek amacıyla oluşturulmuştur. Mülhak bâblar, kelimenin üç türünden sadece fiil ve isimlerde bulunmaktadır. Fiillerde rubâî mücerred ve rubâî mezîd bâblara yapılan ilhâklar, isimlerde ise rubâi mücerred, rubâî mezîd, humâsî mücerred ve humâsî mezîd bâblara yapılmaktadır. Mülhak bâblardan bazıları dilciler tarafından kıyâsî olarak kabul edilirken çoğunluğunun semâ’î olduğu ifade edilmiştir. İlk dönem dilcileri tarafından da ele alınan mülhak bâbların kullanılması bir taraftan Arap dilinin kelime zenginliğine katkı sağlamış, diğer taraftan özellikle şiirlerde vezin uyumu hususunda şairlere önemli kolaylıklar sunmuştur. Kendisinde bir ya da iki harf ziyâde edilmesi sûretiyle oluşturulan mülhak bâblar ile diğer mezîd bâblar dilciler tarafından farklı kategorilerde ele alınmıştır. Bunun en temel sebebi, mezîd bâblarda ziyâde edilen harflerin kelimeye farklı bir mana katmak amacıyla ziyâde edilmesi, mülhak bâblardaki ziyadenin ise sadece bir kelimeyi vezin olarak başka bir kelimeye benzetmek amacıyla yapılmış olmasıdır. Mülhak bâblar incelendiğinde kelimelerin başka bâblara rastgele uyarlanmadığı, kelimenin hangi türlerinde ilhâkın yapılacağı, kaç harfin ziyade edileceği, ziyade edilen harfin kelimenin neresine yerleştirileceği vb. hususlarda bazı temel ilkelerin gözetildiği anlaşılmaktadır. Bu çalışmada Arap dilindeki önemli olgulardan biri sayılan ilhâk konusu ele alınacak, mülhak bâbların kalıpları, ilhâkın amaçları, türleri ve harfleri incelenecektir.

Authors: ÖZDEMİR Mustafa
Published: December 2021

“Yabancılaşma” kavramı, gündeme geldiği her dönemde birçok farklı düşünür ve bilim insanının dikkatini çekmiştir. Kavram, tarihi süreç içinde başta felsefi açıdan olmak üzere sosyolojik, dinî, iktisadi vb. birçok farklı açılardan ele alınmıştır. İbn Haldun asabiyetin kaybedilme süreçleriyle ilgili olarak yabancılaşma kavramını andıran görüşlerinde ahlaki bir bozulma ve fıtrattan uzaklaşmadan bahseder. Makalenin amacı, İbn Haldun’un “bedevî toplumdan hadarî topluma geçiş” sürecinde ele aldığı hususiyetlerin, yabancılaşma kavramı ile ilişkisini ortaya koymaya çalışmaktır. İbn Haldun’un yabancılaşma başlığı altında ele alınacak olan tespit ve değerlendirmeleri, hangi disiplinin yabancılaşmayla ilgili yorum ve tespitlerine daha yakın durmakta ya da farklılaşmaktadır? Bu ve benzeri sorulara da cevap aranacak olan makalede İbn Haldun’a ait bahsedilen bağlamlar ile yabancılaşma eksenli olarak yapılan tartışmalar arasında çeşitli açılardan karşılaştırma ve değerlendirmeler yapıldı. İbn Haldun’un hadarî umran yapısına dair tespit ettiği ahlaki bozulma/çözülmelerle ilgili değerlendirmeleriyle kendinden önce ve sonra ortaya konan teolojik/felsefi/ahlakî yabancılaşma teorileri arasındaki benzerlik ve farklılıklar ortaya konulmaya çalışıldı. Yapılan karşılaştırmalar içinde Karl Marx’ın “yabancılaşma” tespitleri üzerinde hususiyetle duruldu. Elde edilen çeşitli karşılaştırma ve değerlendirmeler, “yabancılaşma” kavramının sosyal bilimler alanında sahip olduğu güncel ve yaygın kullanım potansiyelini göstermesi açısından da ayrı bir önem arz etmektedir.

Toplumsal cinsiyet, toplumsal olarak belirlenen kadın ve erkek rollerini, sorumluluklarını ifade eden bir kavramdır. Toplumun yapısı, dini algılayış, zaman, etnik yapı, aile yapısı gibi faktörler toplumsal cinsiyet rollerini şekillendirmektedir. Bu makale din ve toplumsal cinsiyet ilişkisini, din görevlilerinin toplumsal cinsiyet rollerine ilişkin algıları üzerinden araştırmayı hedeflemektedir. Araştırma, Çorum İl Müftülüğüne bağlı il merkezi ve merkeze bağlı köylerde görev yapan 527 din görevlisini kapsamaktadır. Araştırmanın verileri, din görevlilerinin sosyo-demografik özelliklerini belirlemeye yönelik anket formu, geçerlik ve güvenirliği 2008 yılında Zeyneloğlu tarafından ortaya konulan ‘Toplumsal Cinsiyet Rolleri Tutum Ölçeği’ kullanılarak elde edilmiştir. Veriler değerlendirilirken iki örneklemin ortalamalarının karşılaştırılmasında Bağımsız Örneklem t-testi, ikiden çok örneklemin ortalamalarının karşılaştırılmasında Tek Yönlü Anova Testi ve çoklu karşılaştırmalar için ise Tukey HSD testi ve tanımlayıcı istatistikler kullanılmıştır. Araştırmada din görevlilerinin Toplumsal Cinsiyet Rolleri Tutum Ölçeği toplam puan ortalamasının 129,92±12,18 olduğu belirlenmiştir. Elde edilen bu sonuç toplumsal cinsiyet rolleri karşısında din görevlilerinin eşitlikçi bir tavır içinde olduklarını göstermektedir. Bunun yanı sıra, elde edilen verilere göre, din görevlilerinin yaş, cinsiyet, eğitim durumu, eşin eğitim durumu, görev türü, görev yeri ve hizmet yılı gibi değişkenlere göre toplumsal cinsiyet rollerine ilişkin tutumlarında farklılıklar tespit edilmiştir.

An effective mechanism for the synthesis of classification trees based on fixed initial information (in the form of a training sample) for the task of recognizing the technical condition of samples of weapons and military equipment. The constructed algorithmic classification tree (model) will unmistakably classify (recognize) the entire training sample (situational objects) according to which the classification scheme is constructed. And have a minimal structure (structural complexity) and consist of components (modules) - autonomous algorithms for classification and recognition as vertices of the structure (attributes of the tree). The developed method of building models of algorithm trees (classification schemes) allows you to work with training samples of a large amount of different types of information (discrete type). Provides high accuracy, speed and economy of hardware resources in the process of generating the final classification scheme, build classification trees (models) with a predetermined accuracy. The approach of synthesis of new algorithms of recognition (classification) on the basis of library (set) of already known algorithms (schemes) and methods is offered. Based on the proposed concept of algorithmic classification trees, a set of models was built, which provided effective classification and prediction of the technical condition of samples. The paper proposes a set of general indicators (parameters), which allows to effectively present the general characteristics of the classification tree model, it is possible to use it to select the most optimal tree of algorithms from a set based on methods of random classification trees. Practical tests have confirmed the efficiency of mathematical software and models of algorithm trees.
