Published: November 2024

Lietuva intensyviai patiria postsocialistines transformacijas, kurios reiškiasi performuojant miesto teritorinę, taip pat socioekonominę ar demografinę struktūrą. Vienas iš sąlyginai naujų šios transformacijos fenomenų – uždarų gyvenviečių plitimas miestuose bei jų regionuose. Straipsnyje siekiama išsiaiškinti, kokį poveikį teritorinei segregacijai turi uždarų gyvenviečių plitimas. Pirmiausia straipsnyje skaitytojai supažindinami su uždaromis gyvenvietėmis Lietuvoje: atsiradimo priežastimis, gyvenviečių tipais, pirmuoju Lietuvoje įkurtu uždaru Bendorėlių kvartalu. Toliau pristatoma išsami užsienio autorių darbuose nurodytų galimų poveikių tiek uždarų kvartalų gyventojams, tiek „visuomenei už tvoros“ analizė. Nustatyti galimi poveikio variantai nurodomi pačių straipsnio autorių sudarytoje matricoje ir aptariami šio poveikio įtakos teritorinei segregacijai ypatumai Lietuvos kontekste.

Published: November 2024

This study evaluated the effectiveness of using fecal samples as sensory enrichment in zoos to improve animal welfare and interactions between predators and prey. The main objective was to analyze changes in behavior and stress levels, measured through fecal cortisol, in six different species. An experiment was designed in which fecal samples were exchanged between predators and prey, observing their behavioral and physiological responses. The results indicated an increase in active behavior in predators and an increase in avoidance behaviors and cortisol levels in prey. These findings suggest that sensory stimulation through feces can stimulate natural behaviors in predator but may also induce stress in prey. It is recommended to expand the sample size and species diversity in future studies to validate these results.
El enriquecimiento ambiental es un método común para mejorar el bienestar, fomentando comportamientos naturales y reduciendo estereotipias. Entre los métodos de enriquecimiento sensorial, la estimulación olfatoria es de los más sencillos de usar, pero poco estudiada. Este estudio, realizado en el Parque Zoológico Terra Natura Murcia, evaluó el uso de heces como enriquecimiento sensorial, observando cambios en el comportamiento mediante etogramas y midiendo el cortisol fecal. Se seleccionaron tres especies depredadoras (leones, hienas, leopardos) y tres presas (lémures, colobos, cercopitecos) y se plantearon dos hipótesis: en el caso de los depredadores, se postuló que las heces aumentarían sus comportamientos activos, mientras que en las presas incrementarían los comportamientos de evitación y los niveles de cortisol. Se recolectaron heces de cada grupo y se introdujeron en las praderas según las relaciones depredador-presa. La recolección de muestras fecales y la observación de comportamientos se realizaron antes y después de la introducción de las heces, y los comportamientos fueron registrados por observación focal directa durante 10 minutos, usando etogramas específicos para primates y felinos, y clasificando las conductas en activas, inactivas, agonísticas y estereotipias. Los resultados mostraron un aumento de comportamientos activos en depredadores, como olfateo y exploración, y una disminución de los mismos en las presas. Además, los niveles de cortisol en las presas tendieron a aumentar tras la introducción de las heces, mientras que no hubo diferencias significativas en depredadores.
Advancements in Natural Language Processing for Human-Computer Interaction
Authors:   1Graduate researcher, Civil Engineering, University of the District of Columbia, Washington, DC, United States, Rahman Md Mizanur 
Published: November 2024

•	This systematic review explores the advancements in Natural Language Processing (NLP) for Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) over the period from 2010 to 2024. It highlights the significant breakthroughs achieved through deep learning models, particularly transformer architectures such as BERT and GPT, which have transformed the ability of machines to understand and generate human language. The integration of multimodal capabilities has further enriched user interactions by enabling the processing of diverse data types, including text, audio, and visual inputs. However, the review also identifies persistent challenges, including maintaining coherence in long dialogues, resolving ambiguous language, addressing bias in training data, and the need for resource-efficient models. Additionally, the paper emphasizes the importance of cross-lingual capabilities for low-resource languages and the necessity of personalized, adaptive systems. The findings underscore the need for ongoing research to overcome existing limitations and enhance the effectiveness and inclusivity of NLP technologies in HCI, ultimately contributing to a more intuitive and accessible user experience.

Published: November 2024

Climate finance is a progressive financial tool to foster sustainability and address climate change mitigation and adaptation challenges. This study delineates the notion of climate finance and sustainability, illustrating their confluence and its impact on social welfare, ecological quality, and economic well-being. Climate financing involves distributing resources to environmentally sustainable enterprises and projects designed to harmonize economic growth with sustainability. Furthermore, developed nations have committed to offering financial assistance to developing nations to confront the problems presented by climate change. This paper aims to decode the confluence of climate finance and sustainability. Moreover, it underscores the significance of climate financing in tackling environmental issues, reaching carbon neutrality, and eventually realizing sustainable development. The finding indicates that climate finance is essential for addressing climate change and achieving sustainability, highlighting the significant role of developed nations and the private sector in closing the funding gap required for investments in climate-resilient projects and infrastructure. Consequently, this can generate possibilities for people and nations to earn carbon credits, which are tradable in carbon markets, thereby securing financial benefits.
Multimodal Meaning Construction of Anti-Pandemic Promotion Picture from the Semiotic-Congnitive Perspective
Authors: Ma Sai 
Published: November 2024

As the major form of anti-epidemic promotion in network media, anti-epidemic promotion picture applies diversified multi-modal symbol resources in the construction of meaning. By exploring the interactive relationship between visual grammar and conceptual metaphor/metonymy, a joint multimodal research framework is created to clarify the meaning construction and mechanism contained in anti-epidemic pictures. The research shows that conceptual metaphor and conceptual metonymy not only provide cognitive motivation for the realization of visual grammar, but also inspire the associations of images to the real world. Visual Grammar highlights the cognitive meaning expression of conceptual metaphor and metonymy, stimulates readers’ interpretation of conceptual metaphor and metonymy. The research explores the combination of two mainstream multimodal research paths, and provides a new perspective for multimodal discourse analysis practice.

Published: November 2024

Bangladesh is one of a disaster prone countriy in the world. About 80% of coastal lands in Bangladesh are annually flooded during the rainy season. It is anticipated that Climate Change through the rise of sea level, will intensify flooding and inundation in the coastal areas of the country. Many geophysical, biological and social systems become imbalanced and are at risk because of climate change. Climate change is a main challenge for agricultural productivity which is anticipated and influenced to affect crop and livestock production by extreme events like drought, floods and storms. It will change the types and frequencies of various crops and livestock, availability of irrigation water supplies and the severity of soil erosion. Climate change risks can be distinguished into two classes. Sudden arrival risks emerge quickly such as flooding or hurricanes and the chronic risks are very slow events that are noticeable by society such as drought or sea level rise. Because of this climate change, social threat focuses on those demographic and socioeconomic factors that increase the impacts of hazard events on local populations (Tierney et al. 2001; Heinz Center 2002). Within the above backdrop, this paper intends to focus the impacts of climate change on agriculture, livestock and living environment of the people in the southeastern part of Bangladesh spesially Jessore, Satkhira, Khulna Mongla Bagerhat and Sundarban.

BACKGROUND: Obesity is a condition of abnormal or excessive fat accumulation in the adipose tissue to the extent that health maybe impaired. Obesity results when the number or size of fat cells in a person’s body increases. A normal sized person has between 30-35 billion fat cells which increase in size and later in number (Adhiambo, L.A,2010). Worldwide obesity has nearly tripled since 1975. In 2016, more than 1.9 billion adults, 18 years and older, were overweight. Of these over 650 million were obese. 39% of adults aged 18 years and over were overweight in 2016, and 13% were obese.
METHODS: Using a descriptive cross-sectional study design, 384 freshly admitted undergraduate students were enrolled in the study between May and August 2017. A structured questionnaire was used to interview the participants and to collect data on knowledge on obesity among the students.

RESULTS: This study included 384 students. It was observed that majority of the participants were male (62%) followed by female (38%). 20-22 years of age group (61.7%) was most frequent age group of the participants. (93.8%) of the respondents were Muslim. Majority of the students showed good awareness state in terms of the factors related with obesity such as pregnancy, family history, hormonal disorders, stress, sleeping behavior, food consumption behavior, sedentary lifestyle and medical drugs, alcohol and smoking consumption, except depression and anxiety which almost 15% of the students showed unawareness state. Regarding the clinical factors related to obesity, students also showed good awareness state in the areas of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, respiratory problems, except cancer and osteoarthritis were the students unaware state was 15.6% and 23.4% respectively.

Apprivoiser la mort de l’enfant par la photographie dans l’Espagne de la seconde moitié du 19e siècle. Étude à partir de la collection de la Biblioteca Nacional de España
Authors: Asselot Aliénor 
Published: November 2024

La pratique de la photographie post mortem, qui se diffuse en Espagne avec la mise au point du daguerréotype (1839), puis notamment du « portrait-carte » dans la seconde moitié du 19e siècle, semble bien macabre aujourd’hui, d’autant plus lorsque les sujets photographiés sont des enfants, dont la mortalité reste alors considérable. Cette pratique constitue toutefois une manière comme une autre d’apprivoiser la mort précoce, qu’il convient de réenchâsser dans une histoire technique, intime, familiale et sociale déterminée. À partir de la collection détenue par la Biblioteca Nacional de España, à Madrid, cet article tâchera de mettre en lumière certaines caractéristiques, spécificités et usages potentiels de la photographie post mortem dans la société madrilène de l’époque.
Traduire le sociolecte des chauffeurs égyptiens d’après Taxi de Khaled Al Khamissi
Authors: Ali Mohamed Saad 
Published: November 2024

Le transfert des faits dialectaux dans une langue-culture étrangère s’avère difficile, notamment si les deux langues-cultures en question ne partagent pas le même socle culturel. L’objectif de cette étude est d’analyser les problèmes du transfert d’un texte arabe dialectal en langue française. À partir d’un roman écrit en arabe, oscillant entre l’arabe standard moderne et l’arabe égyptien, nous allons tenter d’étudier la traduction vers la langue française de quelques faits dialectaux composant le sociolecte des chauffeurs de taxi égyptiens. Pour ce faire, nous le classifierons en trois catégories : proverbes dialectaux, expressions figées dialectales et expressions dialectales inspirées de la religion. Nous voulons examiner les stratégies traductives dont se servent les traducteurs pour en transférer les composants en langue française. Les exemples d’analyse portent sur Taxi, roman arabe écrit par Khaled Al Khamissi, et sa traduction en français, ayant le même titre, faite par Hussein Emara et Moîna Fauchier Delavigne.
Arnold Lobel in indirect translation: The case of Frog and Toad in Croatian
Authors: Andraka Marija , Milković Ivana 
Published: November 2024

It seems that, for various reasons, indirect translation still occupies a marginal role in Translation Studies (see Pięta 2014) and it has not asserted itself as a research field in its own right. This paper discusses the role of indirect translation and mediating languages in translating children’s literature. The reasons for indirect translations in the Croatian context are explained. The process of indirect translation is investigated within the theoretical background of retranslation. Indirect translation is exemplified by Arnold Lobel’s story The Surprise (from Frog and Toad All Year), a story which has been translated into Croatian through the medium of German. The reasons for indirect translation are investigated as well as the effects of indirect translation on the final translated text. The article examines signals of foreignisation and domestication in the target text and the extent to which they can be attributed to German as the mediating language and German culture as the mediating culture.
Interpreters’ choice of style in interpreted lawyer-client interviews: An ethnographic approach
Authors: Xu Han 
Published: November 2024

While professional interpreters are trained to interpret in direct speech style, using the “direct interpreting approach” (Hale 2007), studies show that some interpreters deviate from this style, with implications for their role performance. Few of these studies, however, have examined the interpreters’ style choice in relation to their professional qualifications and ethics. Drawing on data from an ethnographic investigation of interpreted lawyer-client interviews in Australia, this study explores interpreters’ choice of interpreting style in line with their professional qualifications, the reasons behind their choice and the implications for their role performance. It found that trained interpreters used direct speech consistently and understood the rationale behind this ethical requirement. Untrained interpreters either ignored this norm or had difficulty adhering to direct speech style and its associated interpreting approach in a consistent manner. They shifted to reported speech on various occasions to achieve different communication purposes, some of which indicate their assumption of roles not stipulated in their professional ethics. The untrained interpreters’ lack of compliance with the normative practice relates to their inadequate understanding of some aspects of the interpreter’s ethical role.
« Je vois des morts »… Quand les fantômes enquêtent (River, Beau Rivage, Beau Séjour, Balthazar…)
Authors: Casta Isabelle-Rachel 
Published: November 2024

Les codes du filmage spectral ont évolué en quelques années, spécialement en régime policier. Le code qui a longtemps prévalu recourait à des surimpressions, à des halos iridescents; or les cinéastes et les télécinéastes d’aujourd’hui ne recourent plus à ces subterfuges et alignent indifféremment acteurs incarnant les morts et ceux incarnant les vivants, dans une similitude troublante de représentation. Ces nouvelles visualités marquent-elles une rupture esthétique majeure? En effet, le surprenant n’est pas tant la présence des spectres (ils sont consubstantiels au cinéma), mais le genre : la fonctionnalité pragmatique du « polar » accentue l’étrange étrangeté de ces présences (in)visibles pour certains personnages, sans les effets spéciaux qui signalaient jadis l’irruption du surnaturel.
