A Comparative Analysis of Machine Learning Techniques for National Glacier Mapping: Evaluating Performance through Spatial Cross-Validation in Perú
Authors: Bueno Marcelo , Macera Briggitte , Montoya Nilton
Published: December 2023

Accurate glacier mapping is crucial for assessing future water security in Andean ecosystems. Traditional accuracy assessment may be biased due to overlooking spatial autocorrelation during map validation. In recent years, spatial cross-validation (CV) strategies have been proposed in environmental and ecological modeling to reduce bias in predictive accuracy. In this study, we demonstrate the influence of spatial autocorrelation on the accuracy assessment of glacier surface predictive models. This is achieved by comparing the performance of several widely used machine learning algorithms including the gradient-boosting machines (GBM), k-nearest neighbors (KNN), random forest (RF), and logistic regression (LR) for mapping nine main Peruvian glacier regions. Spatial and non-spatial cross-validation methods were used to evaluate the model’s classification errors in terms of the Matthews correlation coefficient. Performance differences of up to 18% were found between bias-reduced (spatial) and overoptimistic (non-spatial) cross-validation results. Regarding only spatial CV, the k-nearest neighbors were the overall best model across Huallanca (0.90), Huayhuasha (0.78), Huaytapallana (0.96), Raura (0.93), Urubamba (0.96), Vilcabamba (0.93), and Vilcanota (0.92) regions, consistently demonstrating the highest performance followed by logistic regression at Blanca (0.95) and Central (0.97) regions. Our validation approach, accounting for spatial characteristics, provides valuable insights for glacier mapping studies and future efforts on glacier retreat monitoring. Incorporating this approach improves the reliability of glacier mapping, guiding future national-level initiatives.
Analytical Determination of Irrotational Flow Profiles in Open-Channel Transitions
Authors: Castro-Orgaz Oscar , Hager Willi H.
Published: December 2023

Transitional free surface flow profiles with a critical point occur with weak vorticity and viscosity effects and thus can be modeled with an irrotational flow approach. Important examples in hydraulic engineering include flow over low obstacles, transition structures in canals, and flow over high spillways. While solving Laplace’s equation is relatively simple, the determination of the unknown free surface and energy head of the flow is challenging. Both hydraulic quantities need to be iterated before solving the Laplace equation. Former models iterated the energy head on a trial-and-error basis, assuming that the linked free surface profile is smooth, i.e., free of waves. The iteration of the free surface for a given head is frequently accomplished using the Newton–Rapshon method, which is difficult for the challenging case of spillway flow, giving no solution in some cases. An alternative method of computing irrotational flow profiles in transitional flows involving a critical point is proposed in this work. The model contains three elements: mapping of Laplace’s equation to directly track the streamlines, determination of the critical point and unknown energy head using a critical flow condition for irrotational flows, and determination of the water surface position using an exact analytical solution. The proposed model is favorably compared with experimental data from different sources and CFD results, indicating a reasonable agreement.
Addressing Nitrate Contamination in Groundwater: The Importance of Spatial and Temporal Understandings and Interpolation Methods
Authors: Zaresefat Mojtaba , Hosseini Saeedeh , Ahrari Roudi Mohyeddin
Published: December 2023

Iranian water security is threatened by groundwater (GW) degradation. The excessive use of GW for agriculture in Iran is degrading these resources. Livestock waste disposal and sewage irrigation are also major contributors. Nitrate (NO3) contamination in GW is a growing global concern, posing serious health and environmental risks. Soil can easily leach NO3 into GW, causing long-term contamination. Understanding the temporal and spatial patterns of NO3 pollution is vital in protecting human health and establishing safe drinking water limits. Choosing an appropriate interpolation method is crucial for creating a reliable spatial variability map, which is essential for environmental research and decision-making. This study used 85 GW samples collected over four periods to create interpolated maps and examine the spatial variability of NO3 levels. Spatial interpolation methods were performed using the geostatistical tool within ArcGIS Software. The results showed that Empirical Bayesian Kriging (EBK) was the most effective of the five evaluated interpolation methods, although the performance of each method varied depending on the period sampled. Therefore, the choice of interpolation method should be tailored to the study’s specific needs and the characteristics of the data being interpolated. The EBK method produced interpolation maps that illustrated the spatial distribution of NO3 concentrations, both within and exceeding the recommended guidelines. Interpolation methods can assist in creating spatial maps of NO3 concentrations, identifying pollution sources, and developing targeted management strategies. These maps demonstrate the potential impact of human activities on the observed patterns. A thorough understanding of Iran’s current GW quality is very important and valuable for management and policymakers.
Conflicts of the Land Use and Ecosystem Services in the Riverine Landscape of the Little Danube
Authors: Miklósová Viktória , Kozelová Ivana
Published: December 2023

Ecosystem benefits, now known as ecosystem services (ESs), confront continuous threats from human activities and lack adequate protection, often suffering degradation and destruction despite their inherent advantages. This paper aims to introduce the geosystem approach as an exact scientific basis for assessing ESs. By emphasizing the interconnectedness of abiotic and biotic components within ecosystems, this method involves in-depth research across landscape dimensions and socioeconomic factors influencing the utilization of ecosystem services (ESs). It highlights a deep understanding of their connections and interactions. The key operational units, termed landscape–ecological complexes or geoecological complexes, result from fundamental research. Their interpretation as potentially useful for the chosen ESs is already an applied procedure. ES assessment employs two approaches: participatory and biophysical assessments. The outcomes contribute to the development of management measures for preserving or enhancing ESs in the broader study area. Methodological procedures were tested in the Little Danube model area, a unique lowland stream in Central Europe’s Rye Island and a significant drinking water reservoir. The assessment results provide a foundation, supporting arguments, and criteria for ecologically appropriate landscape planning, as well as the sustainable management, utilization, and conservation of natural resources.
Aquaculture Development in Nigeria: The Second Biggest Aquaculture Producer in Africa
Authors: Ogunji Johnny , Wuertz Sven
Published: December 2023

Today, fish farming has become one of the fastest-growing farming businesses, turning Nigeria into the second biggest aquaculture producer in Africa. Also, Nigeria is the leading country in the production of African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) and African bonytongue (Heterotis niloticus). The great quantity of land, inland water surface, and coastland, which are suitable for fish farming, have placed Nigeria at a very advantaged position to develop aquaculture further. Here, the development of brackish and marine aquaculture represents a promising field for future expansion. An adaptation of aquaculture development has to reduce the impact of climate change as outlined. Furthermore, disease management has to be urgently improved. Among others, the availability of commercial feed pellets is a bottleneck that has to be overcome. Unfortunately, Nigeria is far from self-sufficiency in its fish supply, with a deficit of about 2.5 million tons being imported, but national initiatives envision an expansion in the future to increase the supply of the population with high-quality protein and the prevention of malnutrition. This study identifies challenges and opportunities of the aquaculture subsector and tries to give some recommendations for future development, highlighting potential governmental interventions and support.

Authors: Huang Chen , Lv Kunyan , Xu Qing , Dai Yifan
Published: December 2023

As the upgrade of people’s requirements for automotive driving comfort, conventional passive suspensions for cars have fallen short of existing demands due to their nonadjustable damping and stiffness, so semiactive suspensions and active suspensions have gained growing acceptance. Compared with active suspensions, semiactive suspensions offer the advantages of a low manufacturing cost and reliable structure, and thus have become the preferred choice for most vehicles. To optimize the control effect of semiactive suspensions under different working conditions, this paper completed the modeling of magnetorheological semiactive suspension system dynamics and road inputs; then, the design of binocular camera sensing algorithms was performed to obtain the real-time distance of the target using the point cloud ranging function, and the parameters required for suspension control were also obtained. This was followed by the completion of the control-mode-switching rules and the design of the suspension controller. According to the different control objectives, the mode could be divided into the obstacle-road mode, straight-road mode, and curved-road mode. The suspension controller included the BP-PID (neural network PID controller) controller and the force distributor. Finally, the effectiveness of the mode-switching rules and the control method was verified through system simulation and the hardware-in-the-loop test.

Les chiffres en droit
Authors: Hounbara Kaossiri Léon
Published: December 2023

Relevant des mathématiques, les chiffres s’avèrent souvent utiles pour le juriste qui s’en sert afin d’atteindre certains objectifs du droit. Leur objectivité offre la possibilité de réaliser la sécurité juridique en apportant une certaine précision à la règle de droit tout en permettant d’éviter l’arbitraire des juges. Parfois, ils assurent de fonctions instrumentales en ce sens qu’ils sont souvent utilisés au gré des orientations politiques poursuivies par le droit. C’est ce qui justifie leur omniprésence en droit. Le recourt aux chiffres n’est cependant pas sans difficulté d’articulation avec le droit qui n’est pas une science figée. Quoique utiles pour le droit, les chiffres ne doivent pas faire l’objet de recours désordonnés ou fantaisistes. L’étude du droit camerounais et de certaines autres législations prête malheureusement le flanc à plusieurs critiques dans ce sens.
La protection juridique des personnes vulnérables au Maroc entre le droit national et le droit international
Authors: Kairouani Ali
Published: December 2023

The legal protection of vulnerable people in Morocco falters between obvious international protection and insufficient national protection. The normative resistance of the Moroccan normative corpus likely to protect the vulnerable persons in international law is not the only obstacle. The lack of harmonization and coordination between the two legal orders also represents an incoherence and irrelevance between Moroccan law and the international law of vulnerable people. This normative configuration therefore creates a dysfunction in the protection system for vulnerable people. This situation results in the ignorance of vulnerable people of their most basic rights, including their right of access to justice.
How Guiding Cases Shape the Trajectory of Chinese Legal Reform
Authors: Shang Gao Tereza
Published: December 2023

Alors que la Chine aspire à devenir une grande puissance internationalement acceptée, elle a apporté un certain nombre de réformes au fil des ans à son système juridique. Parmi ces changements progressifs, la mise en place d’un système de cas directeurs a été particulièrement significative et novatrice. Dans ce cadre, certaines décisions de justice particulièrement importantes sont choisies comme cas «directeurs » . Par la suite, tous les tribunaux chinois devraient faire référence aux cas directeurs pertinents dans les affaires en cours. Cet article fait valoir que, malgré ses limites, le système des cas directeurs a eu un net effet positif sur l’ensemble de la réforme judiciaire chinoise. Le système des cas directeurs a non seulement atteint en grande partie ses objectifs en matière de prévisibilité, mais a également contribué à combler en partie le fossé entre le rythme effréné de la croissance économique en Chine et le rythme de ses réformes statutaires en cours. Contrairement à la théorie décourageante voulant que les cas directeurs servent uniquement à renforcer l’allégeance politique des tribunaux de base, elles aident à améliorer le statut de la justice chinoise et, dans la mesure du possible, l’État de droit socialiste chinois.
Droit et pratique de l’arbitrage international en Chine (1994-2019)
Authors: Willems Jane
Published: December 2023

L’adoption de la loi chinoise sur l’arbitrage en 1994 marquait, il y a 25 ans, une première étape pour l’administration des litiges internes et sino-étrangers en Chine, pour la construction d’un droit de l’arbitrage centré sur la création de centres d’arbitrage, le contrôle des activités d’arbitrage au moyen de conditions strictes de validité des conventions d’arbitrage et de contrôle des sentences arbitrales, dont le juge étatique et des institutions d’arbitrages assurent la régulation. Si le cadre législatif n’a pas été modifié, il convient d’examiner l’évolution qu’a connu le droit chinois de l’arbitrage international, à l’épreuve d’une pratique arbitrale et judiciaire qui a dégagé des solutions en comblant les lacunes et en contournant les contraintes contenues dans le texte législatif. Cet article examinera quelques difficultés relatives aux concepts fondamentaux de l’arbitrage international, certains aspects de la procédure arbitrale et le statut de la sentence arbitrale.

Authors: Freedberg Daniel E. , Segall Leslie , Liu Benjamin , Jacobson Judith S. , Mohan Sumit , George Vinu , Kumar Retesh , Neugut Alfred I. , Radhakrishnan Jai
Published: December 2023

Key Points

There is dramatic global variability in the prevalence of ESKD.

Higher per capita health care spending in each country is associated with increased delivery of care for ESKD.

Background

Approaches to treating ESKD may vary internationally on the basis of the availability of care and other factors. We performed a systematic review to understand the international variability in ESKD epidemiology, management, and outcomes.

Methods

We systematically searched PubMed for population-based studies of CKD and ESKD epidemiology and management. Population-level data from 23 predesignated nations were eligible for inclusion if they pertained to people receiving dialysis or kidney transplant for ESKD. When available, government websites were used to identify and extract data from relevant kidney registries. Measures gathered included those related to the prevalence and mortality of ESKD; the availability of nephrologists; per capita health care expenditures; and use of erythropoietin-stimulating agents.

Results

We obtained data from the United States; seven nations in Eastern Europe; four each in Western Europe, Latin America, and Africa; and three in Asia. The documented prevalence of ESKD per million population varied from a high of 3600 (Malaysia) to a low of 67 (Senegal). The annual mortality associated with ESKD varied from 31% (Ethiopia and Senegal) to 10% (the United Kingdom). Nephrologist availability per million population varied from 40 (Japan) to <1 (South Africa) and was associated with per capita health care expenditures.

Conclusions

The delivery of kidney care related to ESKD varies widely among countries. Higher per capita health care spending is associated with increased delivery of kidney care. However, in part because documentation of kidney disease varies widely, it is difficult to determine how outcomes related to ESKD may vary across nations.

Authors: Caglayan P.
Published: December 2023

Isolation and identification of protease and lipase producing moderately halophilic bacteria from soak liquor samples and studying their adverse effects to the sheepskin using scanning electron microscopy may provide critical data on decomposition of raw hide/skin materials during soaking process. Moreover, enzyme-production properties of the moderately halophilic isolates (such as catalase, oxidase, lipase, protease, urease, caseinase, amylase, cellulase, pullulanase, xylanase) were determined. The effects of different NaCl concentrations, pH and temperature values on the growth of moderately halophilic bacterial isolates were tested. In the present study, four moderately halophilic bacterial isolates were isolated and selected for further experiments. The isolated species designated as SLMHB5, SLMHB10, SLMHB12, SLMHB13 were similar to Vibrio alginolyticus, Terribacillus halophilus, Vibrio alginolyticus, and Vibrio parahaemolyticus species, respectively. Scanning electron micrographs of sheepskin samples demonstrated that enzymatic activities of moderately halophilic bacteria isolated from soak liquor samples which decomposed the skin structure. After 35-days storage period, the sheepskin sample showed bad odor, sticky appearance and hair slip. Hence, it is recommended to control these microorganisms during the soaking process with an effective antimicrobial agent.

Authors: Tiwari Navya
Published: December 2023

This research delves into a comprehensive analysis of sorting algorithms, aiming to shed light on their runtime efficiency, space complexity, parallelizability, and stability. Focusing on five fundamental sorting algorithms—Quicksort, Mergesort, Bubble Sort, Selection Sort, and Insertion Sort—the study employs Python implementations validated against various datasets. The efficiency and running time analysis cover diverse scenarios, including pre-sorted, reverse-sorted, and randomly ordered datasets. The time complexity, evaluated for best-case, worst-case, and average-case scenarios, unveils distinct performance characteristics. Space complexity is measured to assess the memory efficiency of each algorithm.

A key aspect of the research is the comparative analysis, exploring how these algorithms perform concerning input sizes and distributions. Notably, the study evaluates the potential speedup through parallel implementations, revealing substantial efficiency gains. Surprisingly, Insertion Sort exhibits outstanding efficiency in parallelization, challenging conventional expectations. The stability analysis classifies Quick Sort as unstable, while Merge Sort, Insertion Sort, Bubble Sort, and Selection Sort demonstrate stability.

The project's unique contribution lies in the development of a user-friendly web-based application accessible at https://sortdata.w3spaces.com/index.html. This interactive platform translates algorithmic recommendations into a practical user experience. Users dynamically input datasets, receiving real-time suggestions on the most suitable sorting algorithm based on dataset size. The sorted data is visually presented in both tabular and graphical formats, enhancing user comprehension. In conclusion, this research not only contributes valuable insights into algorithmic behaviors but also bridges the gap between theoretical analyses and practical applications, providing a robust foundation for understanding sorting algorithms and their real-world implications.

“The Affects of Image”: case report of a collaborative exhibition at the University Art Museum of the Federal University of Uberlândia (MUnA, UFU)
Authors: de Paula Douglas , Rodrigues Rodrigo
Published: December 2023

This article addresses the curation of the exhibition "Os Afetos da Imagem" at the University Museum of Art at the Federal University of Uberlândia (MUnA/UFU) in April 2023, carried out collaboratively by the museum team. This proposal highlights the shared responsibility between individuals in museum activities and the redefinition of traditional approaches to preserving memory and extroversion of the collection. The resulting exhibition celebrates artistic diversity, covering different typologies, such as sculpture, drawing, engraving, artist's book, object and painting. Designed and built in a decentralized and collaborative way, this curation is based on the principle that the museum is a performative device, promoting dialogue with society and valuing public cultural and artistic heritage. Although the collaborative curation experience presented challenges, these were promptly overcome by the team, resulting in an exhibition that highlights the ability to work together and reaffirms MUnA as a space for experimentation and construction of knowledge from shared perspectives.

When museology and museums do not reach the Peripheries and varzéa football: Case study of Sete de Setembro in Vila Progresso
Authors: Conceição João
Published: December 2023

Varzea football is a widespread sport in the outskirts of Brazil. In the city of São Paulo, this practice transcends sport and becomes one of the main attractions in the neighborhoods, whether due to the scarcity of leisure options or a tradition that accompanies the growth of the neighborhoods. The practice of floodplain football in the East Zone of the City of São Paulo is widespread with several traditional teams, including the Sete de Setembro. Currently, the team has a headquarters on private land, but throughout its history it has had four fields, all within the limits of Vila Progresso. This article analyzes the relationship between Clube Sete de Setembro da Vila Progresso and its neighborhood, searching for social memories around the field through interviews with people linked to the club and the neighborhood. In this way, we will understand how this relationship has influenced and still historically influences the lives of this neighborhood and these people. We will affirm that the search for these memories broadens the view of the football field beyond its usual functionality and places it as a possible space of memory.

Keywords: memory, varzea football, place of memory.

Authors: Pausini Adel
Published: December 2023

In the 1960s, faced with numerous sociocultural transformations, but mostly, in the face of the Cold War and the implementation of the harsh military regime in Brazil, journalist Assis Chateaubriand, associated with figures such as Yolanda Penteado and Pietro Maria Bardi, led the National Campaign for Regional Museums, a patronage initiative, that with the support of the São Paulo Museum of Art, the journalistic group Diários Associados, as well as public authorities and other financiers, through the donation of initial new collections encouraged the opening of regional museums spread across Brazil.

Starting from a dialogical methodology, this text seeks to reflect on some of the influences of the network and museum model implemented by the Campaign, through the different ways it dialogues with universities, and using as a case study the history of formation and donation of the Brasiliana Gallery collection to the Federal University of Minas Gerais.

Metateatralne elementy dramatów Witkacego
Authors: Pawlak Przemysław
Published: December 2023

Podążając śladem Alfa Sjöberga i Krystyny Ruty-Rutkowskiej, autor artykułu przygląda się elementom metateatralnym w sztukach Stanisława Ignacego Witkiewicza i podaje w wątpliwość twierdzenie Jana Błońskiego, jakoby nieodłączną cechą bohaterów sztuk Czystej Formy była świadomość roli. Autor analizuje autokomentarze i rozważania bohaterów Onych i Matki na temat egzystencjalnego statusu ich samych i świata, w którym żyją. Wydaje się, że próby ucieczki od nieeuklidesowych czasoprzestrzeni podejmowane przez bohaterów Kurki wodnej i Mątwy są zabiegiem metateatralnym, ale współistnienie żywych i umarłych oraz jawy i snu – nie. Za elementy metateatralne można uznać wprowadzanie postaci spoza sceny, mówione wskazówki sceniczne czy .wykorzystanie jako elementów scenografii stołów lub sztandarów przywodzących na myśl średniowieczne sztandary dworskie. Witkacy wielokrotnie sięga po motywy theatrum mundi i teatru w teatrze, a w konstrukcji swoich sztuk odważnie stosuje staroświeckie partes minores. Dobrymi przykładami mogą być: Maciej Korbowa i Bellatrix, Nowe Wyzwolenie, Tumor Mózgowicz. Drugi Czeladnik w Szewcach okazuje się medium intertekstualnym, a ostrzeżenie przed bioinżynierią to centralny motyw Bezimiennego dzieła i Gyubala Wahazara. Kiedy bohaterowie Witkacego uzurpują sobie władzę nad autorem tekstu, którego są częścią, czytelnicy i widzowie stają przed poważnym dylematem hermeneutycznym.
