OPTIMIZED POWER ALLOCATION USING GAUSSIAN MIXTURE MODEL PRIOR KNOWLEDGE FOR WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS
Authors: REDDY Dr P SATISH
Published: December 2024

This paper addresses power allocation in nonlinear sensor networks with a Gaussian Mixture (GM) information source. Sensor observations are transmitted through independent Rayleigh flat fading channels to a fusion center (FC). The transmit power across sensor nodes is optimally allocated to minimize the mean square error (MSE) of the estimate at the FC. Both Bayesian linear and optimal nonlinear estimators are employed at the FC to evaluate the performance of the proposed optimal power allocation scheme, comparing it to a uniform power allocation approach. Extensive simulation results demonstrate that the proposed Bayesian linear estimator, with optimized power gains, significantly improves estimation accuracy for the GM prior distribution

Published: December 2024

This paper offers ideas to enhance police efficiency in expediting justice, concentrating on three pivotal areas: modernizing investigative tactics and adopting technology, fortifying legislative frameworks and accountability mechanisms, and boosting police training and capacity development. The contemporary criminal justice system necessitates the incorporation of sophisticated technology, like AI-driven analytics, digital forensics, and mobile data collection tools, to expedite investigative procedures and improve the precision of evidence collection. Furthermore, revising legal frameworks such as the BNS and BNSS, along with the implementation of explicit accountability systems, guarantees that police actions conform to procedural norms and timetables. The document underscores the necessity for stringent oversight systems to enhance transparency and accountability within law enforcement. Moreover, augmenting police training via ongoing professional development, emphasizing contemporary investigative methodologies and leadership competencies, is crucial for strengthening overall efficacy. Collectively, these ideas offer a holistic strategy to rectify the inefficiencies in police operations that lead to judicial delays, with the ultimate goal of expediting the administration of justice in India's dynamic legal framework.
M. Gorky's Magazine “Literary Studies” as a School for Beginning Authors (1930–1931)
Authors: Bystrova Olga V.
Published: December 2024

The article examines the history of the journal “Literary Studies” in the period from 1930 to 1931: this is the stage of formation of a periodical aimed at novice writers. In the process of creating the magazine, Gorky proved himself to be an educator and mentor of Soviet literature personnel. Working with novice/young authors was a matter of national importance for the writer. In 1929, the leaders of the LAPP turned to the writer for help, asking him to support their initiative to publish a magazine to help young writers. Gorky not only supported, but also responded with the article “The working class must educate its masters of culture”. In the summer of 1929, Leningrad writers A. Kamegulov, Y. Libedinsky and others began organizational work on the creation of the magazine. Gorky at the initial stage vigorously supported the initiative of the youth. After solving organizational and other issues, the writer headed the editorial board of the magazine and remained in office until 1936. Gorky participated in the journal not only as an organizer, but also as an author of articles, a reviewer of works by novice authors. In March 1930 The first issue of the journal “Literary Studies: A magazine for self-education edited by Gorky” has been published. This period in the history of the periodical was characterized not only by the search for one's own face, but also by the selection of authors who can convey to their readers in an accessible form the necessary provisions and principles of literary work. The magazine was not spared the literary and political struggles of 1930. Disputes arose in the editorial board between representatives of Litfront and RAPP, which affected the situation in the editorial office and the work of the magazine. The result was the reorganization of the magazine initiated by Gorky.
For the first time, the article publishes archival documents from the Archive of A.M. Gorky (Moscow, IMLI RAS), revealing individual episodes of the history of the journal. The thematic richness revealed during the work on the article helped to establish the assumption that the study of the history of Gorky's organizational projects is one of the most important strategic tasks in the study of the literary process of the twentieth century.
Problems in Teaching Russian to Foreign Medical Students Studying in an Intermediary Language (Using the Example of Iranian Students)
Authors: Denisultanova Vlada D.
Published: December 2024

The article examines the problems in teaching the Russian language that teachers face when working with medical students studying in an intermediary language. The early stage of language learning for such students causes the greatest difficulty, therefore, the importance of increased attention and the search for additional teaching methods in order to introduce diversity into the learning process and increase motivation to learn is emphasized. The ways of solving such difficulties based on the analysis of their occurrence are proposed.
For students whose Russian is not the main language of instruction, the issue of motivation causes the greatest difficulties. The author notes the great role of communication between teachers and students in increasing motivation to study. The issue of the lack of specialized textbooks for such a category of students is also being considered, which significantly affects the effectiveness of the educational process. In addition, the author raises the question of how much a language teacher should know about the material of a medical specialty. Since the main purpose of teaching medical students is the development of early professionalization, a Russian teacher is a guide to mastering medical terminology from scratch, therefore he must know the material to a minimum extent. But in practice, many universities lack the necessary training of teachers and the necessary measures for professional development in the specialty.
On Using of Translation Transformations in the Culturemes Transmission
Authors: Ivanov Vladislav E. , Nesterova Natalia M.
Published: December 2024

This paper focuses on the study of translation transformations used to convey culturemes–culturally specific elements that often lack direct analogs in other languages and cultures. These elements reflect unique aspects of a society’s life, traditions, and mentality, making their translation a challenging task. The paper primarily addresses the theoretical aspects of translating culturemes, such as cultural transfer, cultureme, and translation transformation. Cultural transfer is viewed as the process of transferring cultural elements from one culture to another through translation. Cultureme is defined as the minimal unit of cultural information, the translation of which requires a specific strategy. Translation transformation involves modifying the structure and content of the source text to achieve adequacy in the target language. The article explores various types of translation transformations, including transliteration, transcription, calque, generalization, descriptive translation and the use of cultural analogs. Each of these methods is analyzed in detail, explaining when and why they are applied. Particular attention is given to the use of these techniques in the translation of Ernest Cline’s novel «Ready Player One», which contains numerous references to 1980s American pop culture. The complexities of translating these elements are examined, along with specific examples of using different translation strategies to adapt the text for Russian-speaking readers. The article emphasizes the importance of choosing the right translation strategy to preserve the cultural features of the original text and adapt it for readers from another culture, ensuring the cultural and contextual integrity of the work is maintained.

Authors: Makhmudova Nargiza A.
Published: December 2024

This study explores the evolution of literary representations of natural disasters, tracing their transformation from mythological to scientific interpretations across various cultures and historical periods. Natural disasters have significantly influenced human cultures, belief systems, and literary traditions, serving as both cautionary tales and reflections of societal values. By examining key literary works – from ancient texts like the Mesopotamian Epic of Gilgamesh to contemporary climate fiction – this research highlights pivotal shifts in how societies understand and depict catastrophic events. The analysis identifies themes such as the transition from supernatural explanations to naturalistic interpretations, the increasing emphasis on human agency in environmental crises, and the nuanced portrayals of resilience in the face of disaster. Notable literary figures, including Dante, Shakespeare, and modern authors like John Steinbeck, Kim Stanley Robinson, Julian Barns and others illustrate these trends, showing how narratives have adapted to reflect contemporary scientific knowledge and environmental awareness. This article also deals with the vital role literature plays in shaping societal perceptions of nature and disaster, revealing deeper cultural and intellectual shifts. By bridging historical literary analysis and current ecological concerns, the study demonstrates how narratives can foster a deeper understanding of humanity's relationship with the natural world and inform responses to ongoing environmental challenges. Ultimately, this research emphasizes the importance of literary discourse in addressing the urgent issues posed by climate change and natural disasters in the 21st century.
Bézier Curve Interpolation Model for Complex Data by Using Neutrosophic Approach
Authors: Rosli Siti Nuri Idara , Zulkifly Mohammad Izat Emiri
Published: December 2024

Since certain data are ignored owing to noise, coping with the complex data with neutrosophic features is problematic. This paper suggests a neutrosophic set strategy for interpolating the Bézier curve to overcome this issue. Thus, depending on the neutrosophic set notion, this work introduces the Bézier curve interpolation method for neutrosophic data. Using the neutrosophic set and its attributes, the neutrosophic control point is specified first. After that, the Bernstein basis function is linked to the control point and yields a neutrosophic Bézier. This curve is then shown using an interpolation approach that includes curves indicating membership, indeterminacy, and non-membership. Before the conclusion of this article, there is a numeric example and an algorithm for developing the neutrosophic Bézier curve using interpolation. Based on the results obtained, the neutrosophic set can deal with the complex data by treating all data including the uncertainty data as indeterminacy membership functions. In conclusion, this model can be used for real applications involving big data analysis.
Spatial Analysis of Identifying the Association between Risk Factors and Tuberculosis Cases: A Review
Authors: Mohidem Nur Adibah , Osman Malina , Hashim Zailina , Muharam Farrah Melissa , Mohd Elias Saliza , Ma'pol Aminuddin
Published: December 2024

Tuberculosis (TB) transmission frequently occurs in a household or group within a population, resulting in a variety of spatial patterns. However, the apparent spatial clustering of TB may represent the ongoing transmission or co-location of associated risk factors, which can vary significantly based on the type of data available, the analysis methods used, and the dynamics of the underlying population. This study aims to review the spatial analyses used for monitoring the trends involving and associations between risk factors and TB cases by applying the concept of spatial epidemiology. The role of the Geographic Information System in spatial epidemiology is discussed. Previous studies involving spatial analysis of TB cases - which include kriging, spatial autocorrelation, kernel density estimation, hotspot analysis, and regression analysis - are reviewed. The type of analysis was chosen based on the purpose of each study, which could explain the role of the transmission to reactivation of the disease as a driver of TB spatial distribution. In diverse situations, a number of different spatial analysis techniques were used, with all the studies demonstrating significant heterogeneity in terms of the spatial distribution of TB. Future research is needed to determine the best methods to use in different situations and, where possible, consider unreported cases when using notification data. A combination of genotypic, molecular, and geospatial approaches to examine epidemiologically related cases could improve TB control and provide significant contributions to the current knowledge.

Published: December 2024

Learning analytics leverages the use of technology to gather and analyse data about student performance, engagement, and learning behaviours, which can help educators make informed decisions about how to improve learning outcomes. In higher education, learning analytics can provide insights into student engagement, performance, and learning pathways. Collaborative learning in higher education involves a group of students working together towards a common goal or task. Collaborative learning encourages students to work together to solve problems, analyse information, and make decisions, especially in self-directed learning environment. Through discussion and debate, students develop critical thinking skills and learn to approach problems from different perspectives to enhance problem-solving skills. Collaborative learning provides opportunities for students to work with others from diverse backgrounds, helping them develop interpersonal skills such as communication, teamwork, and leadership. While collaborative learning helps students to foster critical thinking and develop interpersonal skills, students’ activities and engagement in collaborative learning are not properly assessed and measured. Student performance indicators are highly dependent on the learning activities and resources used in the learning management system based on individual basis. The ability and potential of learning analytics to track students’ behaviour and performance in team, and to monitor the effectiveness of their sharing and communication is not fully utilised in higher education. This paper addresses this issue and aims to provide an overview of collaborative learning analytics. The overview elaborates essential elements in collaborative learning and defines features in analytics to support collaborative learning. The overview is expected to guide to educators and developers in promoting and assessing students’ performance based on collaborative works.

Review on Opportunities and Constraints of Turmeric Production in Ethiopia
Authors: Tadesse Bethelhem Getahun
Published: December 2024

Turmeric (Curcuma longa.) is One of exported spice in Ethiopia, Southwest Ethiopia produce this spice as a cash crop and many lively hoods had been depend on it for a living. Turmeric production in Ethiopia mainly concentrated at southwest part of the country (Sheka, bench-maji and keffa zones) however, recently major ginger producing areas including wolayta zone shifts the land to turmeric production because of ginger bacterial wilt and good demand for turmeric. Even though turmeric production plays an important role in the producer’s livelihood, its trend of production, productivity and quality has declined continuously for the last ten years. The market situation is characterized by anti-competitiveness and the producers were forced into the role of price takers. Its production and marketing are highly constrained by high price of fertilizer, seed shortage, pesticide shortage, labor and boiling raw materials like (wood and water) , traditional processing practices, lack of market, low price of the product, large number of intermediaries, absence (weakness) of marketing institutions, Absence of formal and structured marketing information dissemination. Therefore, these constraints require special attention if the production is to be increased.

Biotin, also known as vitamin B7, is a water-soluble vitamin that plays a vital role in metabolism, gene regulation, and cell signaling. It’s a type of vitamin called a co-factor; it helps enzymes to break down fatty acids, glucose, and amino acids so your body can function properly. While biotin gained fame as a beauty booster, it does more than keep your hair, nails and skin healthier. The substances introduced on this combination had been Wheat (Triticum aestivum), Peanuts (Arachis hypogaea), Pumpkin seeds (Cucurbita maxima), Almonds (Prunus dulcis), Beetroot powder (Beta vulgaris), Gooseberry powder (Phyllanthus emblica), Jaggery (Saccharum Officinarum). The biotin extract had been undergoing and take a look at the phytochemical evaluation and indicates the presence of Carbohydrate, Protein, Amino acid, Tannins, Saponins, Glycosides, Flavonoids, Phenol, and Terpenoids. The pattern turned into analyzed below FTIR spectroscopy for quantitative evaluation. By this evaluation and take a look at the general to observe famous that the biotin content material is wealthy in biotin powder and it is ideal powerful to humans.

Published: December 2024

The migration of labor from rural to urban areas is an important part of the urbanization process in developing countries. Migration is the answer of the difference between areas that encourage individs to leave, usually to benefit higher income and to provide jobs or more security and more rights.The migration patterns for economists are formulated in the context of individual utility maximization. The individs choose that country mansion which maximizes their usefulness, or said in other words, they choose the place in which the net value of the benefits provided, which realized for them maximum migration . The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview of internal labor migration in the region of Elbasan, as presented regional differences and trends in urbanization.

We formulated a discrete time delay mathematical model to investigate the yellow fever disease's transmission pattern. We established the stability of the delay system by identifying the equilibrium point that is both endemic and free of yellow fever through analytical investigations. Stability was also determined by computing the basic reproduction number using the next generation matrix method. We then conducted numerical simulation and results show that time delay plays a significant role in the case of stability of the endemic equilibrium point as equilibrium is quickly achieved for smaller time delays and vice versa. The basic reproduction number obtained using the model parameter is 0.68876; which shows that the yellow fever free equilibrium point is locally asymptotically stable. The implication of the boundedness is that the disease is controllable.

This article discussed applications of first order ordinary differential equations to real life systems, various types of differential equations with examples are presented. When a dead body is discovered somewhere, Police and detective security agency are eager to identify the time of death and what caused the death. In this article, Newton’s Law of cooling is used to estimate time of death of a dead body discovered in the midnight with the aid of information about the body’s surrounding temperature. It is discovered in this research that Newton’s law of cooling only works when temperature of the body’s surrounding is kept constant. The study also considered other applications of first order differential equations such as population growth model and radioactive decay of radioactive isotopes and illustrative example are given in each case.
Autocovariances and Autocorrelation Properties of Diagonal Vector Autoregressive and Multivariate Autoregressive Distributed Lag Models
Authors: Udoh Emediong D. , Usoro Anthony E.
Published: December 2024

The primary aim of this study was to conduct a comparative analysis of the performance of parsimonious models, specifically the Diagonal Vector Autoregressive (VAR) and Multivariate Autoregressive Distributed Lag (MARDL) Models, using their respective Autocovariance and Autocorrelation properties. This comparison was driven by the imposition of restrictions on parameters within the coefficient matrices, specifically limiting them to diagonal elements. To assess the efficacy of these novel multivariate lag models, we utilized data derived from key macroeconomic variables, including Nigeria's Gross Domestic Product (GDP), Crude Oil Petroleum (C/PET), Agriculture (AGRIC), and Telecommunication (TELECOM). The data was subjected to first-order differencing of the logarithm of the series to ensure stationarity. Subsequently, the models were estimated, and Autocovariances and Autocorrelations of the processes were derived for the analysis. The empirical findings revealed notable patterns, particularly the direct converse autocorrelation observed in both VAR and MARDL models. The negative autocorrelation identified in the macroeconomic variables suggests that periods of economic expansion were succeeded by contractions and vice versa. This implies a complementary relationship between the two models in effectively capturing the dynamics of multivariate lag variables. In conclusion, our study underscores the significance of considering the Diagonal Vector Autoregressive and Multivariate Autoregressive Distributed Lag Models with restricted parameters in the diagonal elements when modelling multivariate lag variables. These findings contribute to a nuanced understanding of the interplay between economic variables and provide valuable insights for researchers and practitioners in the field.
