Державне регулювання музичної індустрії
Authors: Казаков Геннадій 
Published: November 2024

Актуальність. Повномасштабне вторгнення, як не парадоксально, стало рушієм розвитку української музичної індустрії. Відмова більшості українців від російського контенту та відсутність гастролів іноземних артистів дали поштовх українських виконавців. Водночас, представники музичної індустрії досі не виділені державою в окрему категорію та потребують державного врегулювання низки питань, які дозволять українському продукту вийти поза межі власної держави.
Мета – дослідити основні питання, які потребують втручання держави, задля налагодження ефективного функціонування музичної індустрії, винесення проблеми її розвитку і підтримки у державний сектор.
Результати дослідження. Зазначено, що українська музична індустрія в Україні сьогодні знаходиться в генезі, адже тривалий час була орієнтована на музичний сектор країни агресора. Виявлено, що сфера розвивається досить динамічно, проте орієнтується на старе законодавство, яке не враховує тих змін, що відбулися за останні роки. Вказано на відсутність окремого нормативно-правового акту, який би стосувався суто музичної індустрії. Висвітлено головні проблеми, які потребують врегулювання з боку держави залишаються питання авторського права, монетизації власної творчості та подолання музичного піратства. Окрему увагу зосереджено і на підготовці законодавства, яке б регулювало використання ШІ у музичній індустрії. Наголошено, що з боку держави має бути здійснено забезпечення експорту української музичної продукції, її демонстрації світу за рахунок підтримки участі в міжнародних конкурсах, фестивалях тощо.
Висновки. З метою вирішення означених у статті проблем автором запропоновано уряду за підтримки представників індустрії: здійснити підготовку низки нормативно-правових актів, які б регулювали сферу; створити спеціальний державний орган, який би зосередив увагу власне на музичній індустрії та його підтримці; забезпечити створення механізмів підтримки молодих артистів; створення окремих державних фондів та грантових програм, які б були зосередженні на підтримці представників музичного сектору, відбудові концертних майданчиків (особливо у невеликих населених пунктах) тощо.

Published: November 2024

AbstractThe objective of our study is to assess the integration of the concept of special educational needs (SEN) retrospectively and analytically within the Romanian legal framework and its consolidation as a fundamental component of national education policy. Concurrently, we aim to evaluate the effectiveness of inclusive education for children with SEN within the public education system. Methodologically, our investigation begins with a documentary analysis, examining relevant strategic documents that elucidate the contemporary understanding of SEN. Subsequently, we provide an overview of the Romanian context, drawing upon accessible secondary data, supplemented by the outcomes of a quantitative research endeavor conducted in Bihor County. This quantitative phase offers insights into the practical realities of SEN within the Romanian education system. Additionally, we reflect upon the latest national strategy aimed at facilitating a societal paradigm shift towards SEN in the ensuing years. In conclusion, while SEN has been incorporated into the Romanian public education system, its implementation does not fully align with legislative requirements, necessitating smoother execution. We conclude our analysis by posing forward-looking research questions pertinent to future investigations in this field.
Progress of emerging non-volatile memory technologies in industry
Authors: Hellenbrand Markus , Teck Isabella , MacManus-Driscoll Judith L. 
Published: November 2024

AbstractThis prospective and performance summary provides a view on the state of the art of emerging non-volatile memory (eNVM) in the semiconductor industry. The overarching aim is to inform academic researchers of the status of these technologies in industry, so as to help direct the right academic research questions for future materials and device development. eNVM already have a strong foothold in the semiconductor industry with the main target of replacing embedded flash memory, and soon possibly DRAM and SRAM, i.e. replacing conventional memory. Magnetic and resistive memory are the current frontrunners among eNVM for embedded flash replacement and they are very advanced in this, which poses high demands on future academic research for eNVM for this purpose. Phase-change and ferroelectric memory are less available as commercially available products. The use of eNVM for new forms of artificial intelligence hardware is a much more open field for future academic research.

Epos-France Database of Earthquake Ground Motion for Mainland France: 1996–2021 Updated Version
Authors: Buscetti Margaux , Traversa Paola , Perron Vincent , Rischette Pauline , Hollender Fabrice , Shible Hussein 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
For ground-motion analyses, seismic hazard assessment and earthquake engineering applications, high-quality data sets of earthquakes recordings over a wide frequency range (ideally 0.1–100 Hz to cover the frequency band of interest for engineering applications) are needed. Although in the past the implementation of such ground-motion data sets was mostly concerning active seismic regions, in recent years, interest for it has also grown in low-to-moderate seismicity areas, where epistemic uncertainties associated with seismic hazard estimates were largest, due to lack of data. In this article, we provide an updated version of the Traversa et al. (2020) ground-motion data set for mainland France, now extended from 1996 to 2021. This updated data set contains more than 16,000 high-quality waveforms recorded by 622 accelerometers and broadband seismometers of the Epos-France network (formerly RESIF: Réseau Sismologique et Géodésique Français), related to more than 600 earthquakes (ML≅2−5.6) that occurred in France and neighboring countries. The updating procedure includes (1) efficient download and basic processing (instrument-response correction, baseline correction) of the available waveforms, using the stream2segment package (Zaccarelli et al., 2019); (2) mixed manual and automated waveform inspection and phase-arrival picking stage, based on the Stockwell transform (Stockwell et al., 1996); (3) waveform processing leading to the main ground-motion parameters computation; (4) verification and validation procedure implemented by Traversa et al. (2020), based on residual analyses. All these steps are applied to the entire data set, including the content of the previous version, resulting in a completely homogeneous data set. The updating procedure, the main features, and the characteristics of the updated Epos-France data set are discussed in this article, and the data and metadata are distributed through associated flatfiles and ASCII files.

Character crisis is experienced by elementary school students, and forming a student profile of Pancasila is a challenge in shaping the character of the nation of Indonesia. This study aimed to identify the problems faced by schools in building student profiles of Pancasila and to find school strategies for building student profiles of Pancasila students in elementary schools. This study used a phenomenological approach. The participants of this study were 12 elementary school teachers who teach fourth grade in Yogyakarta. A total of 4 teachers from public elementary schools and 8 teachers from private elementary schools. The data of this study were sourced from the selected school research subjects, namely SD Muhammadiyah Sapen and SD Negeri Ungaran 1 because the school had succeeded in character education. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and FGDs with respondents. Data analysis was performed using Cresswell. The results of this study addressed teacher knowledge about the Pancasila student profile and school strategies for building the Pancasila student profile.

Active Disruption Avoidance and Trajectory Design for Tokamak Ramp-downs with Neural Differential Equations and Reinforcement Learning
Authors: Wang Allen , So Oswin , Dawson Charles , Garnier Darren , Rea Cristina , Fan Chuchu 
Published: November 2024

Abstract

The tokamak offers a promising path to fusion energy, but disruptions pose a major economic risk, motivating advances in disruption avoidance. This work develops a reinforcement learning approach to this problem by training a policy to safely ramp-down the plasma current while avoiding limits on a number of quantities correlated with disruptions. The policy training environment is a hybrid physics and machine learning model trained on simulations of the SPARC primary reference discharge (PRD) ramp-down, an upcoming burning plasma scenario which we use as a testbed. To address physics uncertainty and model inaccuracies, the simulation is massively parallelized on GPU with randomized parameters during policy training. The trained policy is then transferred to a transport simulator where it successfully ramps down the plasma. We directly address the crucial issue of safety criticality by demonstrating that a constraint-conditioned policy can be a trajectory design assistant that designs a library of feed-forward trajectories to handle conditions and user settings, a promising approach for the safety-critical context of burning plasma tokamaks. Finally, we demonstrate that the training environment can be a useful platform for other feed-forward optimization approaches by using an evolutionary algorithm to optimize feed-forward trajectories that are robust to physics uncertainty.

Published: November 2024

Abstract

Background
The incidence of depression among college students is increasingly high, significantly impacting their daily lives. This study aims to utilize electroencephalography (EEG) to assess the effects of varying intensities of single-session aerobic exercise on depression symptoms in college students.
Objective
This study aimed to explore the effects of single sessions of aerobic exercise at varying intensities on depressive symptoms in college students through changes in BDI-II (Beck Depression Inventory-II) scores and resting-state EEG lateralization.
Methods
Depressed college students were randomly assigned to low, moderate, high-intensity exercise, and control groups. The study investigated the relationship between BDI-II scores and resting-state EEG frontal cortex lateralization and the impact of single sessions of aerobic exercise at different intensities on depressive symptoms.
Results
BDI-II scores were negatively correlated with frontal α2 (P < 0.01) and β1 (P < 0.05) lateralization in depressed students. Low-intensity exercise significantly reduced BDI-II scores (P < 0.05). Moderate-intensity exercise resulted in significant changes in BDI-II scores (P < 0.001), α2 lateralization (P = 0.002), and β1 lateralization (P = 0.006). Post-test comparisons showed significant differences in BDI-II (P = 0.048), α2 (P = 0.002), and β1 (P = 0.041) compared to the control group, and differences in α2 (P = 0.021) and β1 (P = 0.041) compared to the low-intensity group. High-intensity exercise also significantly altered BDI-II scores (P < 0.001) and α2 (P = 0.035). Post-test comparisons showed differences in BDI-II compared to low-intensity (P < 0.001), moderate-intensity (P = 0.01), and control groups (P < 0.001), and differences in α2 compared to the control group (P = 0.011). BDI-II changes were negatively correlated with changes in α2 (P < 0.01) and β1 (P < 0.05).
Conclusion
All intensities of single-session aerobic exercise can improve depressive symptoms in college students according to BDI-II scores. From the perspective of resting-state EEG frontal cortex lateralization, moderate and high-intensity exercise can improve depressive symptoms, with moderate intensity showing the most significant effect. The improvement in depressive symptoms is associated with increased frontal cortex synchronization.
“Ich-Mupong”, a swollen stomach: An ethnographic study of the daily lived experiences of schoolchildren in schistosomiasis high transmission areas along Lake Albert, Hoima District

Published: November 2024

Abstract

Background Our primary focus was Schistosoma mansoni infection and schoolchildren. Within communities the social environment may promote individual risk of infection for the school-aged children. There will also be demographic groups who are not targeted or reached by preventive chemotherapy campaigns. The behaviours of these other groups will interact with those of school-aged children, resulting in further infection risk through exposure-related behaviours. Furthermore, perception of the disease may significantly influence the schoolchildren’s lived experience of the infection and associated disease. It is therefore crucial to document the daily experiences of schoolchildren living in schistosomiasis high transmission areas along Lake Albert, Hoima District.Methods An ethnographic study explored schoolchildren's perspectives and daily life organisations that shape their risk of schistosomiaisis and their perceptions of the disease. The study was conducted between November 2022 and August 2023. It involved in-depth interviews with schoolchildren and their parents, key informant interviews, focus group discussions with schoolchildren, and participant observations. Data was analysed using a reflexive thematic analysis. Code reports were generated inductively using ATLAS.ti (Version 7).Results The study revealed a significant level of knowledge and awareness about schistosomiasis among schoolchildren. They had understanding of the risk factors, continued exposure, and experiences of illness, though they had little autonomy to address these through their own behaviour as they were influenced by the behaviour of others and macro-factors such as WASH provision and economic need. Study participants experienced individual-level effects of schistosomiasis such as educational impacts and isolation as a significant form of stigma.Conclusions There is a need for continued community sensitisation and awareness campaigns to address social stigma, educational impact, and contamination and exposure-related behaviours. National and regional policies and programmes on WASH, livelihood and poverty eradication programmes need to be revisited in schistosomiasis high transmission areas to help provide alternatives and improve schoolchildren’s lived experiences.

Published: November 2024

Abstract

Background. Implementation of problem-based learning has proven difficult in the majority of Arabic higher education institutions, including International Maaref University (IMU) due to deficiencies in the secondary education system. This study aimed to explore the effect of problem-based learning (PBL) practices on students’ satisfaction at IMU, Libya.
Methods. An online questionnaire was prepared and distributed to the third and fourth semester students of faculty of medicine at IMU.
Results. It was observed that the majority of students were satisfied with the PBL and declared that PBL had enhanced their problem-solving abilities, critical thinking, and develop social skills. However, the impact of PBL on social skills and leadership roles shows variability among students, reflecting diverse experiences.
Conclusions. These findings indicated that PBL effectively develops certain competencies; however, there is room for growth in fostering a comprehensive skill set among students.

Published: November 2024

Abstract

Aim: This study examines the influence of visionary leadership on nurse interns' creativity and organizational effectiveness, with a particular focus on the mediating role of perceived organizational support.
Background: Leadership, particularly in healthcare care, significantly influences employee experiences and outcomes. Visionary leaders support their employees to gain organizational commitment and improve their creativity. However, the impact of visionary leaders on creativity among nurses and organizational effectiveness requires further exploration. Organizational support plays a crucial mediating role in the relationship between visionary leadership and nurses' creativity. When nurses perceive strong organizational support, they feel more valued and are more likely to engage in creative behaviors.
Subjects and Methods: A descriptive correlational design was conducted among nurse interns in Mansoura University Hospitals, Egypt. Four standardized questionnaires were used to examine perceptions of visionary leadership, organizational support, creativity among nurse interns, and organizational effectiveness perception; 464 nurse interns were polled. The study's hypothetical model was examined using AMOS structural equation modeling (SEM).
Results: Visionary leadership perception significantly affects nurse interns' creativity, organizational effectiveness, and perceived organizational support. As well, nurse interns' creativity significantly affects organizational effectiveness. Moreover, perceived organizational support mediates the relationship between visionary leadership as regards nurse interns' creativity and organizational effectiveness,
Conclusions: In sum, fostering a supportive environment and employing visionary leadership can empower nurse interns to be more creative, leading to enhanced problem-solving, improved processes, and better overall performance within healthcare organizations. This emphasizes the importance of leadership and support in driving innovation and effectiveness in healthcare settings.
CaMKII modulates memory destabilization by regulating the interaction of theta and gamma oscillations

Published: November 2024

Abstract

Object recognition memory (ORM) allows animals to distinguish between novel and familiar items. When reactivated during recall in the presence of a novel object, a consolidated ORM can be destabilized and linked to that generated by the novel object through reconsolidation. The CA1 region of the dorsal hippocampus contributes to ORM destabilization and reconsolidation through mechanisms involving theta/gamma cross-frequency coupling (hPAC) and synaptic plasticity modulation. Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) is vital for hippocampus-dependent memory processing and has been associated with theta activity-dependent plasticity in dorsal CA1. However, the specific role of hippocampal CaMKII in the lasting storage of reactivated ORM remains unclear, and its potential impact on memory-related oscillatory activity has not been previously investigated. To explore these questions, we employed a combination of behavioral, electrophysiological, and pharmacological approaches at various stages of ORM processing, and found that CaMKII is not necessary for ORM recall or reconsolidation but does regulate novelty-induced ORM destabilization by modulating hPAC.
Restricted mean survival time approach versus time-varying coefficient Cox model for quantifying treatment effect when hazards are non-proportional
Authors: Gu Tianyuan , Chen Zhaojin , Soon Yu Yang , Wee Joseph , Tai Bee-Choo 
Published: November 2024

Abstract

Background
Although the Cox time-varying coefficient (TVC) model has been developed to address non-proportional hazard (PH), its use remains underexplored. Instead, the restricted mean survival time (RMST) has been widely used in non-PH settings to quantify treatment effects using life expectancy ratio (LER) and life expectancy difference (LED).
Methods
This study explores a novel extension of the Cox TVC model under non-PH to generate LER and LED to enable a direct comparison with RMST. An intensive simulation study was conducted to compare the performance of RMST based on flexible parametric survival model with 3 knots and 1 df to the Cox TVC model under PH and non-PH assumptions. The survival time t was assumed to follow the Gompertz distribution with various censoring patterns generated from the Uniform distribution. Both methods were evaluated via a randomised clinical trial of nasopharyngeal cancer exhibiting increasing treatment benefit.
Results
Intensive simulations showed Cox TVC outperformed RMST under non-PH in terms of bias and coverage, with higher power observed when there was crossing of curves and high censoring. In real-world data, the RMST produced slightly larger LED and LER estimates than Cox TVC. Cox TVC has the advantage of assessing treatment effect at different milestones and detecting earlier difference when estimating using hazard ratio (HR).
Conclusion
Overall, Cox TVC is a viable option for summarising treatment effect using LED and LER under non-PH conditions. It would be beneficial to complement the reporting by providing estimates of HR at specific milestone to detect early differences.

Abstract

Instant noodle has been an initiating point for food industry in many countries, and it continues to be a beloved convenient food in the world. However, some products cause discomfort after consumption despite full compliance in both ingredients and processing methods. It has not only resulted in serious consumer misunderstanding but also affect the industry as well. A simple solution possibly lies in nowhere but its soup which uses Maillard reaction products as flavoring agents. Arginine-glucose MRPs (Arg-Glc MRPs) have been demonstrated to be antioxidant and anti-inflammatory, which can be useful to remove food caused discomfort. Here we show that Arg-Glc MRPs neither produced significant cytotoxicity nor caused oxidative stress in RAW264.7 macrophages. In APPH-induced oxidative damage model they remarkably reduced cytoplasmic ROS and O2·−, and restored the polarization of cytoplasmic membrane potential and mitochondrial membrane potential while enhancing the phagocytic function of normal cells and oxidatively damaged cells. Those in vitro results indicate that usage of Arg-Glc MRPs in the soup can be a promising solution to discomfort problems.
