Contesting Efficacy: Tensions Between Risk and System Efficacy in Facial Analysis Software
Authors: Scheuerman Morgan Klaus
Published: May 2024

Machine learning (ML) applications are frequently trained to make
predictions about human characteristics. In the realm of computer
vision, where facial analysis tasks like facial classification and
facial recognition use visual data to classify attributes about human
identity, predictions are often done without any user input at all.
However, these systems are repeatedly wrong. They make errors about
classification, they propagate social biases, and they constrain complex
human identities—like ethnicity and gender—into simple schemas.
Contestability and user input are interesting paths forward when
considering how to improve classification by facial analysis. However,
there are many tradeoffs—technical and ethical—to consider when
attempting to embed contestability in computer vision systems. In this
position paper, I describe some of the tensions of user autonomy and
efficacy in computer vision tasks that need further attention in HCI,
ML, and social computing research.

Authors: RACHMAN Delli Noviarti , ARLIANSYAH Joni , KADARSA Edi
Published: May 2024

Pioneer trains in Indonesia have been fully funded by the government. The construction needs a lot of funding that would burden the state budget. One of the alternatives is the public-private partnership scheme. This study aims to analyze the most effective unbundling scenario for financing and maintaining the Indralaya-Tanjung Senai train. The life cycle costs and conducting sensitivity analysis according to applicable regulations. The scenarios are based on ticket price increases and government support for the operation and maintenance (O&M) for this pioneer train route, calculated net present value (NPV) and internal rate of return (IRR) value. Scenario 1 assumes that tickets do not receive subsidies; private companies are responsible for O&M costs. Scenario 2 assumes that ticket prices are set by private companies; the government is responsible for procurement and maintenance costs. Scenario 3 assumes that the government provides subsidies of IDR 10,000 per passenger as well as railway infrastructure; private companies bear the cost of procuring railbuses and operational expenses. Based on calculations with Scenario 1 NPV is IDR 0.73 billion; with Scenario 2 is IDR 4.64 billion and with Scenario 3 is IDR (–)1.34 billion. The analysis shows that increasing passenger fares according to price raises and inflation rates, and subsidies from governments for maintenance costs will make this railroad project financially feasible.
Investigation on strength and ductility of confined geopolymer concrete subjected to axial loads
Authors: ANTONIUS  , HAN Ay Lie , MUSLIKH  , ANGGRAINI Nurti Kusuma
Published: May 2024

This paper presents the results of an investigation into geopolymer concrete confined by hoop reinforcement. The investigation focused on the strength and ductility of confined geopolymer concrete subjected to axial loads. The main objective of this research is to evaluate the strength and ductility behavior of confined concrete: by varying several confining reinforcement design parameters, like volumetric ratio, spacing, and yield stress. A total of 15 unconfined and confined geopolymer concrete specimens was produced and tested against axial loads. The test is carried out until the specimen collapses. Experimental results show that unconfined geopolymer concrete is highly brittle, characterized by very sharp post-peak behavior. The volumetric ratio, spacing, and yield stress of reinforcement play a significant role in determining the strength and ductility of confined geopolymer concrete. The comparison between the existing restraint models reviewed in the research was able to predict behavior before the peak of the experimental results very well. However, the existing confinement model has significantly different ductility behavior from the ductility behavior of the experimental results. In this research, an analytical expression of stress–strain for confined geopolymer concrete is developed by modifying the existing confinement model. The validation of confined concrete stress–strain between analytical expressions and experimental results is relatively close.
Low-code development using requirements and knowledge representation models
Authors: Rybiński Kamil , Śmiałek Michał
Published: May 2024

Low-Code Development is a new software development paradigm which is typically used to generate web applications from high-level visual notations. These notations allow to express the User Interface and Application Logic (usersystem interactions) in a way which is understandable by the end-users. Using certain model-driven approaches, the low-code environments allow for generating the front-end layer and basic CRUD operations in the back-end. Yet still, non-standard domain logic (data processing) operations still necessitate the use of traditional programming. In this article we present a visual language, called RSL-DL that can be used to represent such non-standard domain logic in a visual form. It allows to capture domain knowledge with complex domain rules aligned with requirements models. The language synthesises and extends approaches found in knowledge representation (ontologies) and software modelling language engineering. The development environment of RSL-DL enables fully automatic generation of domain logic code by reasoning over and reusing domain knowledge. The environment includes a dedicated model editor and a transformation engine. The language?s abstract syntax is defined using a meta-model expressed in MOF. Its semantics is expressed with several translational rules that map RSL-DL models onto typical programming language constructs. The article presents a list of these rules in an informal way, and then introduces their formalisation using a graphical transformation notation. The RSL-DL environment includes an inference engine that enables processing queries to domain models and selecting appropriate invocations to generated code. It was also initially validated through studies that involve understandability, operability and complexity assessment. Based on these results, we conclude that declarative knowledge representations can be successfully used to produce imperative backend code with non-trivial logic.
News recommendation model based on encoder graph neural network and bat optimization in online social multimedia art education
Authors: Yu Jing , Zhao Lu , Yin Shoulin , Ivanovic Mirjana
Published: May 2024

At present, the existing news recommendation system fails to fully consider the semantic information of news, meanwhile, the uneven popularity of news will also cause the phenomenon of long tail. Therefore, we propose a novel news recommendation model based on encoder graph neural network and Bat optimization in online social networks. Firstly, Bat optimization algorithm is used to improve the effect of news clustering. Secondly, the concept of metadata is introduced into the graph neural network, and the ontology of learning resources based on knowledge points is established to realize the correlation between news resources. Finally, the model combining Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and attention network is used to learn the representation of news, and Gate Recurrent Unit (GRU) is used to learn the short-term preferences of users from their recent reading history. We carry out experiments on real news datasets, and compared with other advanced methods, the proposed model has better evaluation indexes.
Stratigraphic implications of the Middle Miocene of the Despotovac area: Recognition of two geological formations
Authors: Bradic-Milinovic Katarina , Vukovic Srdjan
Published: May 2024

The Middle Miocene of the Despotovac area contains sediments of the lower Middle Miocene (Badenian) and upper Middle Miocene (Sarmatian). The Middle Miocene deposition shows different local variations, but generally fits the evolution of the Central Paratethys. The Miocene sediments were analyzed using paleontological and sedimentological methods. Based on the results of these investigations, the Golubac Formation (Badenian) and the Kamenovo Formation (Sarmatian), which had previously been defined and documented on the Kucevo sheet, were recognized for the first time within the sediments of the Middle Miocene study area on the sheet Lapovo 4.
A pertinent approach: Two class of uncertain priority queuing models under the steady state condition
Authors: Pamucar Dragan , Lakshmanaraj Ramya , Samayan Narayanamoorthy
Published: May 2024

The main purpose of this research article is to provide an appropriate interpretation of the priority queuing model. It creates uncertain sequence models with priority discipline, non-priority systems, models with priority systems, and models with non-priority systems. Here, we propose two models. First, we discussed one array with a server and the second, two arrays with a server. These two model customers follow the rule of first come first served in their queue. The presence and service process follows the Poisson process and the high-speed process with ambiguous parameters. Our results are responsible for the best choice of exchange of preferred discipline. Blurred sequence models are more appropriate than uncertain scenes, which are commonly used as part of reality. Numerical results are provided to deal with the current service discipline. Despite the challenge of determining the optimal single-server uncertain queuing model with two class-priority fields, the steady-state performance of the service process is evaluated.
Epoxygenase Cyp2c44 Regulates Hepatic Lipid Metabolism and Insulin Signaling by Controlling FATP2 Localization and Activation of the DAG/PKCδ Axis

Published: May 2024

Cytochrome P450 epoxygenase Cyp2c44, a murine epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (EET)-producing enzyme, promotes insulin sensitivity, and Cyp2c44−/− mice show hepatic insulin resistance. Because insulin resistance leads to hepatic lipid accumulation and hyperlipidemia, we hypothesized that Cyp2c44 regulates hepatic lipid metabolism. Standard chow diet (SCD)-fed male Cyp2c44−/− mice had significantly decreased EET levels and increased hepatic and plasma lipid levels compared with wild-type mice. We showed increased hepatic plasma membrane localization of the FA transporter 2 (FATP2) and total unsaturated fatty acids and diacylglycerol (DAG) levels. Cyp2c44−/− mice had impaired glucose tolerance and increased hepatic plasma membrane–associated PKCδ and phosphorylated IRS-1, two negative regulators of insulin signaling. Surprisingly, SCD and high-fat diet (HFD)-fed Cyp2c44−/− mice had similar glucose tolerance and hepatic plasma membrane PKCδ levels, suggesting that SCD-fed Cyp2c44−/− mice have reached their maximal glucose intolerance. Inhibition of PKCδ resulted in decreased IRS-1 serine phosphorylation and improved insulin-mediated signaling in Cyp2c44−/− hepatocytes. Finally, Cyp2c44−/− HFD-fed mice treated with the analog EET-A showed decreased hepatic plasma membrane FATP2 and PCKδ levels with improved glucose tolerance and insulin signaling. In conclusion, loss of Cyp2c44 with concomitant decreased EET levels leads to increased hepatic FATP2 plasma membrane localization, DAG accumulation, and PKCδ-mediated attenuation of insulin signaling. Thus, Cyp2c44 acts as a regulator of lipid metabolism by linking it to insulin signaling.

Positivist criminology, represented by the figures of Lombroso, Ferri and Garofalo, can be considered as the great historical milestone in the foundation of criminology as an empirical and multidisciplinary science that aims to explain the determining factors of crime and the most effective ways to face this social problem, definitively moving away from the philosophical-legal ideals that until then tried to explain crime and the ways of responding to this phenomenon.
Assessing the Effects of Flood Risk on Fish Farming in the Coastal Region of Delta State, Nigeria
Authors: Gbigbi Theophilus Miebi , JE Eghagha
Published: May 2024

This study explores the consequence of flood risk on fish agribusiness. Data from 116 respondents were analyzed using various tools such as descriptive statistics, the means of the Likert scale, cost and return analysis, and regression model. The findings indicate that respondents had an average age of 39 years, with most being educated and having around 7 years of fishing experience. The majority were married males with an average household size of 6 persons. Flood events occurred approximately four times on average, leading to significant disparities in cost and return of fish farming. The severity index of flood risk was 0.82%, with many respondents expressing willingness to discontinue fishing during floods. Most fish farmers lacked insurance coverage and government incentives, and many had limited access to credit. Factors contributing to flood risk severity included fish mortality, limited insurance access, income fluctuations, and decreased fish farm output. On average, 1345 fish were lost to flood incidents, with 58.6% of respondents facing high-risk levels. Coping strategies included pre-flood measures like embankment raising and post-flood actions like seeking assistance and applying lime to affected farms. The study recommends joining cooperative societies to improve access to funds and resources and offers insights for mitigating flood risks in the aquaculture business in Delta State

Not every object of collateral submitted by the debtor can be directly charged with the mortgage, especially the collateral submitted by the debtor who has not yet transferred on their behalf. Mortgage rights can only be charged back for this guarantee if the certificate of land rights has been processed and registered in the name of the debtor. The binding of the guarantee on the collateral submitted is only done by making a Power of Attorney to impose Mortgage Rights (SKMHT). In accordance with the provisions of Article 15 paragraph (4) of Law Number 4 of 1996 concerning Mortgage Rights, it is stated that SKMHT regarding land rights that have not been registered must be followed by making a Mortgage Deed (APHT) no later than 3 (three) months after being granted. If within the period of 3 (three) months the certificate has not been completed, the SKMHT will be invalid and cannot be used for making APHT for the object of this guarantee. The research method used is a normative method, this means that this legal research is obtained by way of or focusing on norms and through library research by collecting secondary data. The conclusion of this study is that the position of the bank as a creditor to the object of collateral in the form of land that has not yet been legally transferred to creditors still has clear legal force by binding SKMHT (Power of Attorney to impose Mortgage Rights). Where the period of SKMHT signed by the debtor in accordance with the legislation is 1 (one) month since the signing of the SKMHT deed / since the credit agreement was signed. Meanwhile, the mechanism for imposing mortgage rights on the object of collateral in the form of land that has not been transferred first. The debtor and seller sign the Sale and Purchase Agreement and the Authorization to Sell. At the same time, the debtor and the bank sign the SKMHT which is valid for 1 (one) month since the signing.

Published: May 2024

This article discusses one of the issues of LGBT, namely transgender, which is now widespread and can be found in many places. Transgender is someone who changes or switches gender from their original gender. This transgender phenomenon is considered deviant because it changes what God has created and violates His nature. The purpose of this paper is to find out the arguments and interpetations regarding this transgender phenomenon by using analysis of maqāṣidi interpretation studies initiates by Abdul Mustaqim and using library research by analyzing Al-Qur’an surat An-Nisa verse 119 and ar-Rum verse 30. There are many reasons for the prohibition of this transgender behavior, interpreters say that transgender phenomenon has violated human nature. By using maqāṣidi interpretation, the prohibition is not only based on the meaning if the text, but if reviewed from the maqashidi, the wisdom of this transgender phenomenon will be found, namely hifz al-din, hifz al-nasl, hifz al-nafs, hifz al-‘aql, dan hifz al-daulah.
Handling Deportants and Returnees of Former Foreign Terrorist Fighter: International and Domestic Law Perspectives
Authors: Wijaya Kurnia
Published: May 2024

The defeat of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) after the last war in Baghouz, Syria, by the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) in 2019 was not the end of the problem of global terrorism today. ISIS, which has sympathizers from different countries, currently leaves the problem of handling its deportees and returnees, including in Indonesia. This paper intends to examine the problems of deportants and returnees of former Foreign Terrorist Fighters (FTF) in Indonesia normatively, focusing on the political aspects of law, positive criminal law, and international criminal law. Based on the type of normative research, legislative, comparative, and conceptual approaches, this paper argues that the handling of deportants and returnees of former foreign terrorist fighters in Indonesia within the framework of positive criminal law still seems to be dominated by a paradigm of legal thinking that leans on aspects of restraint and retribution rather than prioritizing aspects of reformation and deterrence. In addition, positive criminal law instruments are still not sufficiently accommodating in supporting law enforcement in handling deportants and returnees of former FTFs in Indonesia.
CRANIOMETRICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE HUMAN FETAL SKULL
Authors: Dmytrenko R.R.
Published: May 2024

The purpose of the study – to ascertain the regularities of the age-related dynamics ofmorphometric changes of the skull in the fetal period of human ontogenesis.Material and methods. 59 specimens and 12 computed tomography (CT) scans of theskulls of human fetuses aged from 4 to 10 months of intrauterine development (IUD)were studied. A complex of morphological research methods was applied, which includedanthropometry, morphometry, three- dimensional reconstruction and statistical analysis.The results. It has been established that the longitudinal and transverse dimensions, thecircumference of the cerebral part of the skull grow almost uniformly before birth, but bythe 5th month of the IUD, a more accelerated growth is observed, due to which the scatterdiagram has the appearance of a logarithmic dependence. A somewhat uneven growth ofthese morphometric indicators is also observed in the age-related changes in the width andupper height of the face. The growth of the facial angle during the fetal period was revealed,which can be explained by the development of the mandible («pushing» it forward).
At the same time, the basilar angle slightly decreases during the fetal period of development,which can be explained by the increase in the brain volume. The basilar angle increaseswith the age of the fetus, but somewhat unevenly in leptins, i. e., until the beginning of the6th month, it almost does not change, during the 6th-7th months it increases intensively,and then slows down again until the end of the fetal period of IUD. In euryons, there isa uniform growth of the basilar angle throughout the fruiting period of development, andmore intensively than in the average morphotype – mesens. Analysis of the correlation offetal age, cranial index, and basilar angle size showed even more significant anatomicalvariability. Thus, if in dolicho- and mesomorphs the basilar angle grows almost uniformlyduring the fetal period, then in brachymorphs it first intensively decreases until the 6thmonth of development, and then begins to grow until the newborn period. It should be notedthat a similar feature is observed in the dynamics of age-related changes in the facial angle,in addition to slowing down its growth from the 8th month in dolichomorphs.Conclusions. 1. Regression analysis of the correlation of age, morphotype indicators, andbasilar and facial angles made it possible to establish patterns of individual morphometricvariability of the skull in the dynamics of the fetal period of prenatal human development,as well as to identify critical periods of morphogenesis of the brain and facial parts ofthe skull, which are 6-7 months in leptins, the 6th month – for brachymorphs and the 8thmonth – for dolichomorphs. 2. The size of the basilar angle of the skull is an importantdiagnostic and prognostic indicator in combination with indices that characterize themorphotype of the individual, for monitoring the normal development of the skull andbrain of the fetus.

The purpose of the work – carry out a review of published clinical studies on the effectof antihypertensive therapy with beta-blockers on the course of arterial hypertension.Conclusions. Data from the literature testify that the rapid growth in recent years inthe frequency of prescribing vasodilatory β- ABs is due to their presence of a numberof advantages compared to conventional cardioselective drugs (without vasodilatorproperties). The advantages of vasodilating β- ABs include the absence of a negativeeffect on lipid and carbohydrate metabolism, the possibility of their safe combination withthiazide and thiazide-like diuretics, a proportional decrease in central and peripheralblood pressure, a minimal effect on bronchial patency, the absence of a negative effect onerectile function, a decrease in frequency cardiovascular complications in patients witharterial hypertension.
DIAGNOSTICS OF THE LEVEL OF DEVELOPMENT OF THE FUNDAMENTALS OF CRITICAL THINKING IN CHILDREN OF OLDER PRESCHOOL AGE
Authors: Maksimova Olena , Fedorova Mariia
Published: May 2024

In an era of rapid changes, when innovation and creativity become key, developed critical thinking is a component of a successful personality. It promotes the development of the ability to analyze information, distinguish facts from assumptions, establish connections between events, draw objective conclusions, effectively use available resources, and look for new ways to achieve a goal. The purpose of the article is to highlight the essence of critical thinking, justify the diagnostic criteria, and describe the results of the development of its foundations in older preschool children. Methods applied: analysis of psychological-pedagogical and methodical literature, game method («Find the differences», «Yes or no?»), conversation based on the pictures «Nonsense», «What will happen next?», resolution of pedagogical situations, and observation of children during joint activities. Critical thinking is evaluative thinking that is aimed at analyzing the situation, finding several options for solving the problem, and choosing the optimal one based on the experience gained and new knowledge that is superimposed on this experience. We singled out the following criteria for his diagnosis: the ability to think logically, the presence of one’s own opinion, divergent thinking, the ability to cooperate and discuss ideas with others, and the ability to forecast. Since critical thinking in older preschool age is just emerging in connection with the peculiarities of thinking processes, we distinguished 3 levels of its development: the emergence of criticality (low level), elementary level, and positive level. The conducted research showed that the majority of children are at low (30.5%) and elementary (47.8%) levels; only 21.7% have a positive level. Work on the development of critical thinking in children requires additional attention from educators.

The social success of a student in a higher education institution is formed in the process of certain activities, social activity, and interpersonal interaction. The issue of social success and activity of a higher education student is defined as one of the priority goals in a number of regulatory documents. The authors used the methods of theoretical analysis of modern scientific literature of Ukrainian and foreign researchers, generalization, and systematization to deepen the understanding of the concept of social success and activity of student youth. Research attention is paid to the importance of promoting the level of social activity of student youth and social performance, as this affects not only the formation of an active life position of students, but also helps to improve the level of knowledge acquisition.

The article is devoted to the development of alternative education in the USA. The article's purpose: to reveal the peculiarities of the formation of alternative education in the USA and its periodization. Research methods applied: theoretical (study of scientific literature, analysis, systematization, comparison, generalization of the obtained information). Alternative methods of providing education and theoretical prerequisites, which are used today by alternative teachers within the framework of public education, have existed for more than 200 years and are developing, based on the contribution of many representatives of different countries. The inspiration for the development of alternative programs and schools is primarily dictated by the needs of individuals, the emphasis in their development has always been on the maximum disclosure of abilities and self-development. At the end of the 20th ‒ beginning of the 21st century, attention to alternative pedagogy in the philosophy of education became a significant factor in the development of foreign pedagogy, since in the context of this educational paradigm there was an opportunity to find ways to solve such problems as ensuring childrenʼs self-activity, educating them in social instincts, organization of real childrenʼs self-government, involvement of children in work. Interest in alternative schools became, in fact, a certain impetus for reforms in the field of education and training and, first of all, their democratization. In other words, a revision of pedagogic attitudes and, naturally, a restructuring of education itself began. The analysis of American scientific literature shows that alternative education in the USA has gone through a number of stages in its development: 1st stage (XVI - 30s of the XIX century) – fragmentary; 2nd stage (30s - 90s of the XIX century) – unified; The 3rd stage (90s of the 19th century ‒ 50s of the 20th century) is progressive and experimental; 4th stage (70s of XX century) – search; 5th stage (90s of the 20th century) – innovative and reformatory; The 6th stage (the end of the 20th century ‒ the beginning of the 21st century) is variable. Ukrainian scientists investigate various aspects of the problem of alternative education: comparative analysis of alternative education, combined system of school education, alternative education as a subject of scientific discourse, history of the formation of alternative education in Ukraine, alternative schools, etc. However, alternative education in Ukraine is still not too widespread, and far from all aspects of the problem have been sufficiently studied. It is expedient to study and implement the achievements of foreign experience in the educational environment of Ukraine.
