Authors: Houd Anass El , Hachem Charbel El , Painvin Loic 
Published: October 2021

Abstract
The welding seams visual inspection is still manually operated by humans in different companies, so the result of the test is still highly subjective and expensive. At present, the integration of deep learning methods for welds classification is a research focus in engineering applications. This work intends to apprehend and emphasize the contribution of deep learning model explainability to the improvement of welding seams classification accuracy and reliability, two of the various metrics affecting the production lines and cost in the automotive industry. For this purpose, we implement a novel hybrid method that relies on combining the model prediction scores and visual explanation heatmap of the model in order to make a more accurate classification of welding seam defects and improve both its performance and its reliability. The results show that the hybrid model performance is relatively above our target performance and helps to increase the accuracy by at least 18%, which presents new perspectives to the developments of deep Learning explainability and interpretability.

Published: October 2021

Abstract
Background: Sleep disorders have a significant impact on physical and mental health among aged population. This study was aimed to determine the relationship between different levels of physical activity (PA) and domains of sleep status in aged population in Birjand, Iran.Methods: This descriptive-analytical study was performed on 1740 individuals ≥60 years in urban and rural regions of Birjand. Longitudinal Ageing Study Amsterdam Physical Activity Questionnaire (LAPAQ), a sociodemographic and a sleep status questionnaire were used to collect data. Analyses of variance (ANOVA), univariate, multiple linear and logistic regressions were used to analyze the data. Results: The mean age of the participants was 69.73±7.56 years. About 54.08% of participants had low PA. People with moderate to high PA had higher sleep quality, sleep satisfaction and sleep efficiency compared to inactive people (p<0.05); but PA was significantly inversely related to sleep duration. According to univariate linear regression model, both low and moderate to high PA were good predictors of sleep quality, sleep efficiency. Moderate to high PA predicted high sleep satisfaction and sleep duration in the participants (p<0.05). Conclusions: Physical activity, particularly at moderate to high levels, results in higher quality, satisfaction and efficiency of sleep in the elderly. The most influential factor on the relationship between PA and sleep is depressed mood. Therefore, in using the PA to improve sleep status of the elderly it is recommended to also focus on reducing the depression.

Published: October 2021

Abstract
The effectiveness of arch-support insoles on children remains controversial. We evaluated the short-term therapeutic effects of arch-support insoles on the physical functional performance, physical function, and psychological well-being of healthy children under the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) framework. It was a prospective double-blind randomized controlled study. The participants were randomized into 2 groups, the treatment group (with customized arch-support insoles) and the control group (without insoles) for a 12-week intervention period. The walking speed test, stairs ascent and descent tests, the Five Times Sit-to-Stand test, and the Timed Up and Go test for physical functional performance, and the Pediatric Outcome Data Collection Instrument-Parent (PODCI) and the Child Health Questionnaire-Parent Form (CHQ-PF28) for the physical function and psychological well-being of children were assessed. Forty-five children completed the study. Compared with the control group, after 12 weeks of wearing customized insoles, the treatment group exhibited significant improvement in physical functional performance in terms of fastest walking speed (effect size: .515, P = .046), stairs ascent time (effect size: .658, P = .023), and stairs descent time (effect size: .718, P = .012). No significant difference was found between PODCI and CHQ-PF28 scores.Conclusions: Children wearing customized arch-support insoles for 12 weeks improved their physical functional performance which belonged to the domain of activity in the ICF. However, using insoles did not affect the physical function and psychological well-being of children.﻿ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03198299), date of registration: June 2017, retrospectively registered.
Antecedents and enablers of supply chain reconfigurability and its effect on performance
Authors: ZIDI Slim , Hamani Nadia , Kermad Lyes 
Published: October 2021

Abstract
The reconfiguration of supply chain is becoming a crucial concept used to deal with market disruptions and changes such as COVID 19 pandemic, demand uncertainty, new technologies, etc. It can be defined as the ability of the supply chain to change its structure and functions in order to adapt to new changes. Its assessment requires an understanding of its quantitative factors to provide indicators that are easy to interpret. Effective reconfigurability assessment can be achieved by measuring quantitatively its six characteristics (modularity, integrability, convertibility, diagnosability, scalability and customization). This paper aims at identifying the quantitative factors of each characteristic and their inter-relationships by using Total Interpretive Structural Modelling (TISM). The structural model obtained by TISM is applied to understand the dependency quantitative factors. Based on TISM results, a classification of quantitative factors is determined using « Matrice d'Impacts Croisés, Multiplication Appliquée à un Classement » (MICMAC) analysis. This paper may be helpful to understand the previously mentioned characteristics of reconfigurable supply chain in order to facilitate the measuring and the assessment of reconfigurability.

Published: October 2021

Abstract
Ventilation modes in karst caves are of great significance for exploring issues regarding "carbon sources and sinks" in karst areas. Therefore, this study conducted continuous monitoring of air temperature, humidity, and CO2 concentrations inside and outside the Dafeng cave in Suiyang, Guizhou from August 2015 to July 2020 in order to comprehensively analyze each element using a systematic analysis method. The results revealed that: (1) the Dafeng cave is mainly divided into three ventilation modes: ① during summer and autumn, the inside of the cave is mainly in a restricted ventilation mode, wherein air exchange inside and outside the cave is suppressed, and the CO2 concentration in the cave easily forms a cumulative effect; ②during winter, the inside of the cave is mainly in an active ventilation mode, wherein there is strong air exchange, and the CO2 concentration inside the cave is close to that outside the cave; ③ during spring, due to the variable climate and rising temperature, the inside of the cave gradually transitions from an active to restricted ventilation mode and the air exchange intensity gradually changes. The isotope data change characteristics outside the cave at the Yemingzhu monitoring site verifies the ventilation mode of the tunnel during each season. (2) Due to the influence of tourists, air changes inside and outside the cave, and the structure of the tunnel, there may be multiple ventilation modes within a single season. Tourists and tunnel structure primarily affect the structure of the tunnel. A change in the air environment outside the cave mainly affects the virtual temperature outside the cave, increasing or reducing the virtual temperature difference between the inside and outside of the cave, thereby affecting the ventilation mode. Thus, our study suggests that more consideration should be given to changes in external climate or weather conditions when studying the conversion mechanism of karst cave ventilation modes.
Silicon-Doped Nanotube (Si-CNT) as Drug Delivery Nanocarrier for Osteoporosis Drug: Quantum Chemical Study

Published: October 2021

Abstract
The aim of this study is to investigate the potential and capability of Si-CNT to detect and adsorb BMSF-BENZ ((4-bromo-7-methoxy-1-(2-methoxyethyl)-5-{[3-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl]methyl}-2-[4-(propane-2-))yl) phenyl]-1H-1,3-benzothiazole) molecular. For this purpose, we considered different configurations for adsorbing BMSF-BENZ drug on the surface of the Si-CNT nanocluster. All considered configurations are optimized using DFT theory at the 6-31G** basis set and B3LYP level of theory, and then from optimized structures, for each nanoparticle, we selected four stable models for the adsorption of BMSF-BENZ from (Br, N8, N9, N58, O35, O41 and S) active sites on the surface the selected nanoparticle. and Quantum theory of atoms in Molecular Analysis (QTAIM), and Molecular Orbital Analysis (MO) was also established. The calculated results indicate that the distance between nanocluster and drug from the N8 site is lower than from all other locations sites for all investigated nanoparticles, and adsorption of BMSF-BENZ from the N8 site is more favorable especially for the Si-CNT nanotube. The adsorption energy, hardness, softness, and fermi energy results reveal that the interaction of BMSF-BENZ with Si-CNT, is an encouraging adsorbent for this drug as Eads of BMSF-BENZ/Si-CNT complexes are (-5.15, -24.21, -8.22, -17.03, -13.16, -2.22, -12.70) kcal/mol in the gas phase. As well, the appropriate and spontaneous interaction between the BMSF-BENZ drug and Si-CNT nanoparticle was confirmed by investigating the quantum chemical molecular descriptors and solvation Gibbs free energies of all atoms. Si-CNT can be used as an amperometric sensor to detect the BMSF-BENZ drug molecule. Thus, we propose that the Si-CNT can be a promising candidate as a drug delivery vehicle for BMSF-BENZ drug molecules.
The Time Value of Carbon Storage

Published: October 2021

Abstract

Widespread concern about the risks of global climate change is increasingly focused on the urgent need for action (IPCC, 2018; IPCC, 2021), and natural climate solutions are a critical component of global strategies to achieve low temperature targets (e.g. Griscom et al. 2017, Roe et al. 2019). Yet to date, the full potential of natural systems to store carbon has not been leveraged because policy-makers have required long-term contracts to compensate for permanence concerns, and these long-term contracts substantially raise costs and limit deployment. In this paper, we lay out the rationale that our time preference for early action embedded in the Global Warming Potentials (GWP) leads to the conclusion that multiple tons of short-term storage of carbon in ecosystem stocks can be considered to have equal value – as measured by the social cost of carbon -- as 1 ton of carbon sequestered permanently. This equivalence can be used to quantify the value of short-term carbon storage, thereby removing one of the most significant barriers to participation in the carbon market and enabling the full climate mitigation potential of the land sector to be realized.

Published: October 2021

El presente estudio se realizó en las aulas de sexto y séptimo año de educación básica, en la Unidad Educativa «Charasol», Ecuador. En un lapso de ocho semanas, se observaron las acciones didácticas de los docentes, enfocadas en estrategias socioafectivas, escenario y ambiente de aprendizaje de los salones de clases. Los docentes y los estudiantes tuvieron dificultades comunicativas e interpersonales al relacionarse dentro y fuera del aula; no se percibió un clima de confianza y de comunicación.
Es por este motivo que se propuso registrar las aristas y los factores que intervienen en la acción y el rol didáctico del docente, con el objetivo de analizar y proponer una guía didáctica que destaque el uso y la importancia de estrategias socioafectivas, para mejorar el escenario y ambiente de aprendizaje en el subnivel de Educación Básica Media. El trabajo se basa en una investigación cualitativa que por medio de la observación, delimita situaciones manifestadas en las diferentes aulas de clases; además se destaca que la fuente primaria de información son los actores del aula y los investigadores, intérpretes de las situaciones observadas.
Luego del análisis de la información recolectada y la búsqueda bibliográfica se sustenta, fundamenta y se recomienda la creación de una Guía didáctica de estrategias socioafectivas esperando que, al ser implementada, los docentes planifiquen sus clases para satisfacer las necesidades de los estudiantes, y así crear un adecuado escenario y ambiente de aprendizaje en su aula de clases.

El objetivo del presente artículo es identificar los patrones pedagógicos que existen en los procesos de consumo de alimentos. El problema del que partimos considera dos aristas: primera, según los reportes de salud, nuestro país padece sobrepeso, obesidad y malnutrición; segundo, en lo que respecta a las industrias de alimentos, si bien operan bajo una lógica de negocios (mercadológica, directiva, administrativa, etcétera), las estrategias de promoción en su conjunto están diseñadas para formar conductas comunitarias, de tal modo que parte de los problemas de alimentación provienen de una intencionalidad sistemática.
A través de una investigación documental, logramos dos resultados: 1) una visibilización de los procesos de venta de alimentos como una pedagogía del consumidor, y 2) el diseño de algunas estrategias de intervención a largo plazo para incluir el concepto de «dignidad de la persona», como parte de las estrategias directivas de los negocios gastronómicos.
WINNER OR LOSER? (EN TORNO AL «PARADIGMA DEL ÉXITO»)
Authors: Lerma Jasso Héctor 
Published: October 2021

Los hombres de todas las épocas han buscado, en mayor o menor medida, con mayor o menor claridad, llevar a buen puerto su existencia: «triunfar en la vida».
Dos son los obstáculos que pueden dificultar este objetivo: el fracaso (no realizar aquello que se perseguía) y/o la frustración (el abandono ante el ideal pretendido). Por eso, el camino hacia la plenitud está sembrado de dolor.
El éxito y el fracaso son siempre relativos. El hombre maduro sabrá dar jerarquía a las cosas y, sobre todo, sabrá aceptarse independientemente de la realización o no de aquello que ha perseguido porque conoce que la vida es, también, apertura flexible –y sonriente– ante los ideales y ante la vía que nos encamina a ellos.
La plenitud existencial exige también sabiduría: el sendero humano está repleto de limitaciones personales y ajenas; los fracasos y el dolor son vías alternas –y en ocasiones, las más exigentes y sólidas– para la edificación del proyecto vital.
Sampling uncertainty of UK design flood estimation
Authors: Hammond Anthony 
Published: October 2021

ABSTRACT
The UK standard for estimating flood frequencies is outlined by the flood estimation handbook (FEH) and associated updates. Estimates inevitably come with uncertainty due to sampling error as well as model and measurement error. Using resampling approaches adapted to the FEH methods, this paper quantifies the sampling uncertainty for single site, pooled (ungauged), enhanced single site (gauged pooling) and across catchment types. This study builds upon previous progress regarding easily applicable quantifications of FEH-based uncertainty estimation. Where these previous studies have provided simple analytical expressions for quantifying uncertainty for single site and ungauged design flow estimates, this study provides an easy-to-use method for quantifying uncertainty for enhanced single site estimates.
Self–Training With Quantile Errors for Multivariate Missing Data Imputation for Regression Problems in Electronic Medical Records: Algorithm Development Study
Authors: Gwon Hansle , Ahn Imjin , Kim Yunha , Kang Hee Jun , Seo Hyeram , Cho Ha Na , Choi Heejung , Jun Tae Joon , Kim Young-Hak 
Published: October 2021

Background
When using machine learning in the real world, the missing value problem is the first problem encountered. Methods to impute this missing value include statistical methods such as mean, expectation-maximization, and multiple imputations by chained equations (MICE) as well as machine learning methods such as multilayer perceptron, k-nearest neighbor, and decision tree.

Objective
The objective of this study was to impute numeric medical data such as physical data and laboratory data. We aimed to effectively impute data using a progressive method called self-training in the medical field where training data are scarce.

Methods
In this paper, we propose a self-training method that gradually increases the available data. Models trained with complete data predict the missing values in incomplete data. Among the incomplete data, the data in which the missing value is validly predicted are incorporated into the complete data. Using the predicted value as the actual value is called pseudolabeling. This process is repeated until the condition is satisfied. The most important part of this process is how to evaluate the accuracy of pseudolabels. They can be evaluated by observing the effect of the pseudolabeled data on the performance of the model.

Results
In self-training using random forest (RF), mean squared error was up to 12% lower than pure RF, and the Pearson correlation coefficient was 0.1% higher. This difference was confirmed statistically. In the Friedman test performed on MICE and RF, self-training showed a P value between .003 and .02. A Wilcoxon signed-rank test performed on the mean imputation showed the lowest possible P value, 3.05e-5, in all situations.

Conclusions
Self-training showed significant results in comparing the predicted values and actual values, but it needs to be verified in an actual machine learning system. And self-training has the potential to improve performance according to the pseudolabel evaluation method, which will be the main subject of our future research.
Slowness as a Strategy of the Contemporary through Films
Authors: Heald Karen 
Published: October 2021

In Future Studies and the History of Technology accelerating change is a perceived increase in the rate of technological change throughout history. This may suggest faster and more profound change in the future and may or may not be accompanied by equally profound social and cultural change. Responding to the accelerating technological landscape and contemporary life, this paper researches how the concept of ‘time’ plays a significant role. The author, an experimental filmmaker, charts an experiential journey within several pivotal ‘dream films’, along with relevant artists’ moving images in relation to time and slowness in the moving image as critical media. As contemporary life has become more and more fast paced, and one year on the impact of COVID-19 is still being felt, the idea of stillness is beginning to become a more desirable commodity. The author explores ‘slow cinema’, acknowledging seminal directors Andrei Tarkovsky and Claire Denis, as well as art films which frequently emphasise long takes, offering minimalist aesthetics with little or no narrative. In an endeavour to portray different temporalities and reveal and allude to the invisibility of time, the author relates to Julia Kristeva’s notions of intertextuality, transposition and time, and Lutz Koepnik’s concept of slowness as a strategy of the contemporary. The author discusses four ‘dream films’, where painterly, poetic, non-linear narratives, and ‘in-between’ spaces are played out: FRIDA Travels to Ibiza, Cycle, Llafarganu Papagei and Frock.
