Use of Natural Language Processing to understand users’ perspective on the Art Places/Places of Interest in Global Cities Singapore and Hong Kong
Authors: Zeng Xinyu , Ortner Frederick Peter , Tuncer Bige
Published: July 2024

The Art Places/Places of Interest (POI) are increasingly important for Singapore and Hong Kong in their bid to be Global Cities. The design and operation of such Art Places are often led by the museum owners, city government and panel of experts from a top down approach, as well as funded by national governments for public benefit as part of long-term planning. The inputs from the actual users are often neglected. Public participation in Art Places/POI is often limited by individual visits and interactions. The diverse views and feedback on the design and operation of Art Places are difficult to capture accurately. In order to understand the perceptions of the users, extensive and expensive surveys and interviews need to be undertaken. Despite this, there is still a challenge of selection bias and interpretation bias. This paper explores the use of technology and big data to understand the similarities and differences between well-liked and disappointing areas of Art Places/POI in Singapore and Hong Kong. Public reviews on Art Places/POI in Singapore and Hong Kong will be examined using Natural Language Processing tools including the prevalent topic modelling method, namely Latent Dirichlet Allocation. The study revealed common strengths and weaknesses among artistic venues in Singapore and Hong Kong. “Place and experience” emerged as a common strength, while “price and content” were identified as a shared weakness. Singapore’s Art Places were distinguished by a unique strength in their “kid-friendly element,” whereas Hong Kong excelled in “food and shopping.” However, Singapore faced a unique weakness in “racial enclaves,” whereas Hong Kong’s distinctive weakness lay in “service.” These insights can aid urban planners and operators in comprehending and addressing areas of improvement highlighted by negative reviews, thereby enhancing overall performance.
Solving the Paradox of Material Implication
Authors: Pociej Jan
Published: July 2024

The paradox of material implication has remained unresolved since antiquity because it was believed that the nature of implication was entailment. The article shows that this nature is _opposition _and therefore the name "implication" should be replaced with the name "competition". A solution to the paradox is provided along with appropriate changes in nomenclature, the addition of connectives and the postulate that the biconditional take over the role of the previous implication. In addition, changes to the nomenclature of logic gates reflecting the competition in electronics are proposed.
Case of Lajpat Nagar Market in New Delhi: Creation and execution of street vendor survey for observing public health and order in a non-vending zone.
Authors: Singh Raja , Bhashyam Pavani
Published: July 2024

The Lajpat Nagar market had been made a no-vending zone after the 1996 bomb blasts as vending, along with other issues, blocked the way of the emergency services. In 2014 a street vending law was passed in India to make street vending a right under right to livelihood. After court intervention, the area remains a no vending zone. Yet, the study found 522 street vends in the market. A method to observe street vendors was developed using the street vending law and its related rules and this was tested in the Lajpat Nagar (Central) market. The street vending laws puts the duty of the vendor to maintain public order and public health, in the form of preventing blockages to public roads/footpaths and cleanliness by placing dustbins. It was found that there was no universal compliance of the same, and due to the market being a no vending zone, the enforcement of the street vending law may be difficult, as it is not valid in the first place. 24.9 percent of vendors blocked footpaths and 17.6 appeared to be without dustbins. Either the enforcement of the no vending policy should be fully done, else vending must be regulated with duties of the vendors towards public health and order be imposed upon them. 

Keywords: The Street Vendors Act 2014, Street vendors, Rights, Certificate of Vending, Lajpat Nagar Market, TVC, Livelihood, Health and order.

Authors: Donnik Irina , Mayzel' S , Burachevskiy Nikolay Viktorovich
Published: July 2024

Abstract. The purpose. The research is aimed at solving the problem related to the development of technology for producing an environmentally friendly product of animal origin – lactose-free milk. This will solve the problem of consumption of milk and dairy products by people who do not tolerate milk sugar for physiological reasons. Analyzing, on the basis of a literary review, the current state of the issue of lactose-free milk production, it can be concluded that existing technologies have certain disadvantages due to changes in the composition of the initial product, or the significant complexity of the technological chain. The proposed development is based on a method of milk diafiltration consisting of several repetitive cycles. The cycle consists in the separation of milk by the ultrafiltration process into permeate (aqueous lactose solution) and concentrate (proteins, fat, lactose residues). Then pure water is added to the concentrate in a volume equal to the volume of the discharged permeate. For a scientifically based approach to the development of the proposed technology, it is necessary to conduct a study of ultrafiltration separation of milk, obtain optimal operating parameters of the process, determine the change in permeability and selectivity of membranes from lactose concentration, consider the possibility of obtaining lactose-free milk with different mass fraction of fat, determine the number of cycles of the membrane diafiltration process. Research methods. The study of the process of ultrafiltration separation of milk was carried out in laboratory conditions on a membrane installation using organic and inorganic membranes. The experiments determined the main characteristics of ultrafiltration membranes – permeability and selectivity, with varying parameters (parameter range: P = 0.15…0.5 MPa, t = 35…65 °C). Results. Based on the experimental data obtained, by processing them and optimizing the parameters, optimal modes of the milk separation process by ultrafiltration were obtained. The following parameters are defined: the velocity of the product in the supramembrane space, the operating pressure of the separation process, its temperature. The preferred ultrafiltration membranes for the membrane-milk system have been selected. Scientific novelty. To develop a technology for producing lactose-free milk, for the first time a number of studies and experiments were carried out, such as changing the permeability and selectivity of membranes from the concentration of lactose, obtaining lactose-free milk with mass fraction of fat the number of cycles of the membrane diafiltration process was determined.

Published: July 2024

Abstract. The purpose is to study the effectiveness of the action of the natural signaling molecule salicylic acid (SA) and Bacillus subtilis (Bs) on the ratio of photosynthetic pigments (PhSP) in plant materials (leaves) of Campanula alliariifolia Willd. and its decorativeness. Methods. Using spectrophotometric techniques, an analysis was carried out of the dynamics of the content of pigments (chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b and carotenoids) under the influence of a strain of the bacterium Bacillus subtilis, isolated at the Bashkir Scientific Research Institute of Agriculture of the Federal Research Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Ufa) from the arable soil layer of the Republic of Bashkortostan, and its combination with salicylic acid during the growing season. Scientific novelty. The influence of the B. subtilis strain separately and together with salicylic acid on the physiological parameters and decorative properties of Campanula alliariifolia in the conditions of the Bashkir Cis-Ural was studied. Results. The content and ratio of PhSP in dynamics (phases of budding, flowering and fruiting) were analyzed. It was revealed that inoculation of C. alliariifolia plants with Bacillus subtilis significantly increases the amount of carotenoids during the flowering phase. During the fruiting phase, the maximum content of PhSP was noted in the Bs + SA variant of the experiment. Two-factor analysis of variance showed that the significant influence of factor A (vegetation phase), factor B (different experimental options), and the degree of total influence of two factors (A × B) on the content of PhSP in samples of campanula leaves is statistically significant for the studied indicators. It was found that inoculation with the B. subtilis strain maximized indicators such as the abundance of flowering and the density of bellflower inflorescences, thereby improving the decorativeness of C. alliariifolia in the conditions of the Bashkir Cis-Ural.

Abstractive Text Summarization Based on Neural Fusion
Authors: Chali Yllias , Zhu Wenzhao
Published: July 2024

Abstractive text summarization, in comparison to extractive text summarization, offers the potential to generate more accurate summaries. In our work, we present a stage-wise abstractive text summarization model that incorporates Elementary Discourse Unit (EDU) segmentation, EDU selection, and EDU fusion. We first segment the articles into a fine-grained form, EDUs, and build a Rhetorical Structure Theory (RST) graph for each article in order to represent the dependencies among EDUs. Those EDUs are encoded in a Graph Attention Networks (GATs), and those with higher importance will be selected as candidates to be fused. The fusing stage is done by BART which merges the selected EDUs into summaries. Our model outperforms the baseline of BART (large) on the CNN/Daily Mail dataset, showing its effectiveness in abstractive text summarization.
Enhanced Multimodal Content Moderation of Children’s Videos using Audiovisual Fusion
Authors: Ahmed Syed Hammad , Khan Muhammad Junaid , Sukthankar Gita
Published: July 2024

Due to the rise in video content creation targeted towards children, there is a need for robust content moderation schemes for video hosting platforms. A video that is visually benign may include audio content that is inappropriate for young children while being impossible to detect with a unimodal content moderation system. Popular video hosting platforms for children such as YouTube Kids still publish videos which contain audio content that is not conducive to a child's healthy behavioral and physical development. A robust classification of malicious videos requires audio representations in addition to video features. However, recent content moderation approaches rarely employ multimodal architectures that explicitly consider non-speech audio cues. To address this, we present an efficient adaptation of CLIP (Contrastive Language–Image Pre-training) that can leverage contextual audio cues for enhanced content moderation. We incorporate 1) the audio modality and 2) prompt learning, while keeping the backbone modules of each modality frozen. We conduct our experiments on a multimodal version of the MOB (Malicious or Benign) dataset in supervised and few-shot settings.
Hybrid Cyber-Physical Intrusion Detection System for Smart Manufacturing
Authors: Potts Jeremy , Ismail Muhammad
Published: July 2024

Smart manufacturing is an important part of our critical infrastructure and is the current age of industry where physical components such as robotic arms, 3-D Printers, CNC machine, etc. are all interconnected and remotely controlled or automated to provide a major boost in efficiency. While being more effective, the cyber-physical integration expands the attack surface of these systems for any potential threats to act on and exploit. This integration also creates gaps in the current intrusion detection systems (IDS) and the research of such systems as they focus on either the cyber or physical components of these system, which leaves blind spots when an attack can only be detected by using either cyber or physical features. This paper fill that research gap by creating a cyber-physical testbed, launching denial of service and physical hijacking attacks, collecting benign and malicious data, and creating a hybrid IDS using K-Nearest Neighbors and Decision Tree models that consider both cyber and physical features. Our proposed hybrid IDS achieves an accuracy of 97.2% which was roughly the same as separate cyber and physical IDSs, but there was a significant boost in precision (98.4%), recall (94.2%), and F1 score (96.1%) when using the hybrid IDS compared to the separate IDSs.

Multi-step Natural Gas Price Forecasting using Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition and Long Short-Term Memory Hybrid Model
Authors: Gandhi Herry Kartika , Márton Ispány
Published: July 2024

With the characteristic of natural gas as a clean, non-toxic, and valuable energy source, its use has been increasing in recent years. Thus, maintaining stable natural gas security requires a reliable long-step price forecasting indicator with less error. We propose a hybrid theory of Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition (EEMD) with Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) to perform multi-step forecasting focusing on 30 to 90 steps of the daily Henry Hub natural gas price as a dataset. Using four widespread error measurements, the proposed model provides excellent results compared to no-decomposition as the benchmark model. The proposed model provides 50% lower error results than the single LSTM. EEMD_LSTM brings values below 10 in the MAPE indicator, even up to 90-step prediction. The Diebold-Mariano test also confirms that EEMD_LSTM outperforms the single LSTM on every step with the majority of 90% confidence level. We also simulated the model by analysing the box and whiskers plot of RMSE, which shows that the variance of predicted values ranges between 1.11%. These results show that the proposed forecasting model provides robust results for the case of medium-term natural gas prices with excellent forecasting results.

Published: July 2024

Стаття присвячена особливостям розвитку поштово-логістичних компаній України в умовах сучасних викликів. Основна увага приділяється адаптації компаній до світових трендів таких як глобалізації, діджиталізації, розвитку електронної комерції та сталого розвитку, а також до специфічних факторів, що впливають на український поштово-логістичний сектор, зокрема умови війни, економічні зміни та поведінка споживачів. Аналізуються адаптації компаній, зокрема перегляд ринкових стратегій, організація безпеки праці, впровадження гнучких поштово-логістичних рішень та міжнародна експансія для забезпечення фінансової стійкості, високої якості доставки та залучення нових клієнтів. Окремо виділяється важливість інвестицій у інфраструктуру, діджиталізацію послуг та розвиток партнерських відносин з міжнародними логістичними мережами. Підкреслюється роль поштово-логістичних компаній у наданні гуманітарної допомоги та впровадженні екологічних ініціатив. Основний висновок полягає у тому, що українські поштово-логістичні компанії демонструють ефективну адаптацію до сучасних викликів, активну цифрову трансформацію та готовність до подальшого розвитку завдяки міжнародній експансії та інвестиціям.

Published: July 2024

Кризовий соціально-економічний стан підприємств індустрії гостин-ності породжує зовнішнє та внутрішнє середовище, що дестабілізує виро-бничу діяльність. Попит на ринку індустрії гостинності України, зокрема, готельному, знижується через воєнний стан. Доведено, що найбільший вплив на ефективність мають механізми реалізації антикризового управ-ління, основними елементами яких є цілі, функції та принципи антикризо-вого управління. В основу оцінки ефективності впливу антикризового уп-равління готелем покладено критеріальний підхід, що базується на актуа-льності та узгодженості інтересів підприємства, учасників ринку та стейкхолдерів. На думку авторів, основними критеріями визначення доці-льності впровадження антикризових заходів є своєчасність та адекватність управлінського впливу при розробці та реалізації антикризових заходів та їх практична реалізація. Проведене дослідження дозволило визначити ін-формаційну асиметрію як основну причину виникнення проблемних ситу-ацій при здійсненні антикризового управління. Інформаційна асиметрія визначається тим, що учасники антикризового процесу мають нерівні мо-жливості доступу до інформації, яка характеризує фінансово-господарську діяльність підприємства.

У статті досліджуються особливості впливу ШІ на розвиток бізнесу в сфері послуг, а також визначено переваги та ризики успішної інтеграції ШІ в бізнес-процеси. Встановлено, що роль ШІ у персоналізації пропозицій послуг та рекомендацій є трансформаційною для індустрії послуг. На основі проведеного дослідження зʼясовано, що використання компаніями вдосконалених алгоритмів та можливостей машинного навчання, шляхом аналізу величезних обсягів даних клієнтів сприятимуть кращому розумінню їхніх вподобань, поведінки та потреб, що у свою чергу дозволить компаніям адаптувати пропозиції та рекомендації для кожного окремого клієнта. Зʼясовано, що ШІ має потенціал для глибокого перетворення індустрії послуг, підвищуючи ефективність, персоналізацію та задоволеність клієнтів, проте впровадження цих технологій потребує обережного підходу з урахуванням етичних міркувань та захисту конфіденційності даних. Встановлено, що впровадження ШІ сприяє автоматизації, персоналізації та оптимізації обслуговування, що може призвести до підвищення конкурентоспроможності підприємств. Зʼясовано, що застосування штучного інтелекту сприяє постійному розвитку та впровадженню інновацій у сфері послуг. На основі проведеного дослідження зʼясовано, що впровадження ШІ в сфері послуг стикається з певними викликами, зокрема питаннями конфіденційності даних та етичними міркуваннями. Встановлено, що вплив ШІ на розвиток бізнесу в сфері послуг є значним і багатогранним, де основні аспекти цього впливу включають: оптимізацію чисельності робочої сили; планування робочих графіків для ефективного використання людських ресурсів; створення персоналізованого досвіду для клієнтів за допомогою віртуальної реальності та доповненої реальності; автоматизацію рутинних та повторюваних завдань, процесів та оптимізації використання ресурсів компанії для скорочення експлуатаційних витрат; здійснення постійного моніторингу та аналізу ефективності діяльності компанії; ідентифікація потенційно шахрайської поведінки тощо.

Сьогодні підвищення кваліфікації кадрів в Україні має нестабільні показники, що пов'язано з низкою чинників, таких як військовий конфлікт та економічна нестабільність. Незважаючи на ці виклики, країна поступово адаптується та виходить з кризової ситуації завдяки державним ініціативам, міжнародній підтримці та активному використанню сучасних технологій. Вважаємо за необхідне охарактеризувати організаційно-економічний механізм підвищення кваліфікації кадрів, який спрямований на забезпечення економічного зростання. Стаття присвячена аналізу можливостей побудови організаційно-економічного механізму підвищення кваліфікації кадрів аграрного сектору економіки та обґрунтуванні підходів і складових його формалізації. Цей механізм повинен враховувати технологічні зміни, екологічні вимоги та постійні зміни у законодавстві. У статті обґрунтовано необхідність побудови організаційно-економічного механізму підвищення кваліфікації кадрів, що забезпечить економічне зростання, враховуючи технологічні зміни, екологічні вимоги та змінне законодавство.
