Global Research Performance on the Design and Applications of Type-2 Fuzzy Logic Systems: A Bibliometric Analysis
Authors: Hamza Mukhtar Fatihu , Sani Shehu Gaddafi , Umar Mustapha Mukhtar , Ismail Abdulbasid 
Published: September 2019

There has been a significant contribution to scientific literature in the design and applications of Type-2 fuzzy logic systems (T2FLS). The T2FLSs found applications in many aspects of our daily lives, such as engineering, pure science, medicine and social sciences. The online web of science was searched to identify the 100 most frequently cited papers published on the design and application of T2FLS from 1980 to 2016. The articles were analyzed based on authorship, source title, country of origin, institution, document type, web of science category, and year of publication. The correlation between the average citation per year (ACY) and the total citation (TC) was analyzed. It was found that there is a strong relationship between the ACY and TC (r = 0.91643, P<0.01), based on the papers consider in this research. The “Type -2 fuzzy sets made simple” authored by Mendel and John (2002), published in IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems received the highest TC as well as the ACY. The future trend in this research domain was also analyzed. The present analysis may serve as a guide for selecting qualitative literature especially to the beginners in the field of T2FLS.
Genetic editing for improvement of fruit and small fruit crops
Authors: Tikhonova N. G. , Khlestkina E. K. 
Published: September 2019

Today the range of crops, which are studied and improved with the help of genetic editing technologies, in particular with CRISPR/Cas system, is actively expanding. High accuracy, ease of editing tools application and relative cheapness allow the use of this method in research in various fi elds of biology. The present systematic review summarizes the global experience of editing the genome of fruit and small fruit crops using the CRISPR/Cas9 tool and considers the prospect of using this newest biotechnological approach for crop improvement. The systematic review employed one of the most authoritative internet resources indexing the reviewed scientifi c publications, such as the Scopus database. By systematic search concerning 37 species of fruit and small fruit crops 115 publications were found, among which 26 described original research on CRISPR/Cas system application to fruit and small fruit crops. A total of 21 target genes have been edited in 8 crops. Some of the studies are consecrated to the approbation of the method or establishing/clarifying the functions of the target genes by their knockout. In the review we distinguished the publications describing application of gene editing tools for improving the properties of plants. By now 12 target genes have been successfully edited in fruit and small fruit plants. The main type of modifi cation is the knockout, which is aimed at negative regulators of the factors of resistance to pathogens or at changing the morphology of plants. In most cases the modifi ed plants have the desired characteristics and have been tested for resistance to pathogens by laboratory tests. It is discussed how much the target mutagenesis application to fruit and small fruit crops can be broadened in future.

Published: September 2019

Genetic studies of diff erent geographical origin of apricot varieties contribute to the accumulation of information about distribution and cultivation history of this crop. Valuable material in such studies is the local autochthonous germplasm. The local Dagestan varieties can be included to representatives of the autochthonous germplasm of apricot. Genetic studies of the Dagestan germplasm will allow to evaluate its contribution in world apricot gene pool, as well as to determine its place among varieties with diff erent eco-geographical origin. Six SSR- markers previously elaborated on Siberian apricots were used in the genotyping of 12 apricot varieties. Much of the selected varieties were represented by local Dagestan forms. Microsatellite markers used in this study allowed to separate all varieties selected for work as genotypes with specifi c SSR profi les. The polymorphism level, expressed in the number of alleles per locus, had high values, based on the analysis of studies previously conducted in the world. In this regard, we can conclude that the involved SSR markers can be used in further studies aimed at analyzing the genetic diversity of the studied culture. In this study, clustering apricot varieties was used to determine related groups of varieties, based on the data SSR-genotyping. For cluster analysis the neighbor joining (NJ) method was used. The clustering of the samples carried out in the work, allowed us to reveal the intermediate position of Dagestan varieties relative to varieties of diff erent eco-geographical origin. To confi rm the obtained results, the PCoA main coordinates method which refl ecting the relationship of genotyped samples on the coordinate plane was additionally used. The patterns of samples distribution on the plot of coordinates revealed by PCoA generally corresponded to the clustering data using the neighbor joining (NJ). The study made it possible to evaluate the eff ectiveness of the SSR-markers used in the work for the genotyping of apricot varieties and to obtain information on the genetic relatedness of the local Dagestan varieties relative to other eco-geographical groups of varieties.
A deep learning-based procedure for estimation of ultimate load carrying of steel trusses using advanced analysis
Authors: Hung Truong Viet , Viet Vu Quang , Thuat Dinh Van 
Published: September 2019

In the present study, Deep Learning (DL) algorithm or Deep Neural Networks (DNN), one of the most powerful techniques in Machine Learning (ML), is employed for estimation of ultimate load factor of nonlinear inelastic steel truss. Datasets consisting of training and test data are created based on advanced analysis. In datasets, input data are the member cross-sections of the truss members and output data is the ultimate load factor of the whole structure. An example of a planar 39-bar steel truss is studied to demonstrate the efficiency and accuracy of the DL method. Five optimizers such as Adadelta, Adam, Nadam, RMSprop and SGD and five activation functions such as ELU, LeakyReLU, Sigmoid, Softplus, and Tanh are considered. Based on analysis results, it is proven that DL algorithm shows very high accuracy in the regression of the ultimate load factor of the planar 39-bar nonlinear inelastic steel truss. The number of layers can be selected with a small value such as 1, 2 or 3 layers and the number of neurons in each layer can be chosen in the range [Ni, 3Ni] with Ni is the number of input variables of the model. The activation functions ELU and LeakyReLU have better convergence speed of the training process compared to Sigmoid, Softplus and Tanh. The optimizer Adam works well with all activation functions considered and produces better MSE values regarding both training and test data.

The development of Finnish anti-tank weapons, 1918-1939
Authors: Halila Michael 
Published: September 2019

This article deals with the Finnish army's failure to acquire anti-tank weapons in the interwar period. Even though Finland was an early adopter of armor, anti-tank weapons became neglected when a clique of German-trained officers took control of the Finnish army in 1924. Disregarding practical evidence, they believed that Finnish terrain was impassable to armor, and therefore anti-tank defenses were unnecessary. Their beliefs were rooted in a nationalist conception of Finnist terrain as totally different from Central Europe, and were only challenged in the 1930's when formally trained officers started rising through the ranks. Once they questioned the prevailing orthodoxy and practical experiments were performed, it became clear that Finnish terrain was not so unique after all.
Even after the need for anti-tank weapons was understood, the chaotic state of the Finnish armed forces delayed procurement. There was no formal procurement process, and weapon system evaluations were carried out by small, over-worked committees. When the decision was made to procure 37mm anti-tank guns from Bofors, national industrial policy intervened, and instead of buying guns from Sweden, complex schemes to create joint Finnish-Swedish armament production were developed. When these came to naught, it was decided to create a state-owned munitions plant, effectively from scratch. After a 1935 decision to procure the guns, the first pieces were delivered in October 1939; barely over a month before the Soviet invasion.
Proletarian Literatures : Reflections on Working-Class Reading in the Age of the CIO
Authors: Denning Michael 
Published: September 2019

Littératures prolétariennes ; réflexions sur la lecture ouvrière à l'époque du c.i.o.
Louis Adamic et Robert Cantwell ont présenté des hypothèses diamétralement opposées sur les lectures des membres de la classe ouvrière des années 1930. Leur polémique, qui a coïncidé avec le début d’une sociologie de la lecture (le travail de Waples à Chicago en particulier), peut servir à clarifier les interactions qui se pro¬ duisent entre les différents sens donnés au terme “ littérature prolé¬ tarienne” : avant-garde du peuple, consommation d’histoires à sen¬ sation par la classe ouvrière, goût des ouvriers pour les classiques. Utilisée comme outil d’analyse, la dialectique entre romans à sensa¬ tion et public prolétaire met au jour des liens inattendus entre le mili¬ tantisme de classe et le succès populaire. Les études des pratiques culturelles ne devraient en tout cas pas se cantonner aux stratégies individuelles, mais tenter d’analyser comment les diverses institutions et communautés mobilisent des publics et orientent leurs réactions.
Immigration et réunification familiale dans le débat contemporain aux États-Unis
Authors: Daniel Dominique 
Published: September 2019

Family Reunification in the American Debate on Immigration
The 1990 decision of Congress to maintain family reunification as the basis of its immigration policy has been hailed by the Hispanic and Asian minorities as evidence of their political strength. Despite its divisions, the coalition has lobbied successfully against the restrictionists and the proponents of an economic selection of immigrants. However, the persistence of a system that was so severely attacked in the 1980’s cannot but have deeper causes, such as the ethical and diplomatic constraints faced by the federal government and its fidelity to the American tradition of welcome.
"Words, words, words" : rhétorique de la satire dans le roman Mr Sammler's Planet de Saul Bellow

“Words, words, words” : rhétorique de la satire dans le roman Mr Sammler’s Planet de Saul Bellow
Le roman Mr Sammler’s Planet est une satire féroce non seulement de la culture américaine mais aussi de la culture occidentale dans son ensemble. La satire des mœurs de l’Amérique urbaine des années soixante débouche sur une satire des idéologies et des systèmes que propose l’époque ; le discours de la satire se veut satire des discours. Fondamentalement réflexif et ambigu, il ne cesse de se retourner contre lui-même, générant une tension dans laquelle on verra une des principales sources du comique et peut-être un effet de la double appartenance culturelle de l’auteur.
Le sens de l'histoire médiévale : le vrai et le vraisemblable
Authors: Morse Ruth 
Published: September 2019

The meaning of medieval history : the problem of verisimilitude
Throughout the Middle Ages, texts which call themselves true representations of the past pose serious problems of interpretation, because the “verisimilar” need not also be “veritable”. Nor, to complicate matters, is it always clear that that distinction, so important to us, was central to the meaning of medieval history. This essay takes the fall of Richard II, well-known through Shakespeare’s play of the same name, as a case study, considering the ways meanings are conveyed by medieval writers through manipulations of style, genre, and typology.
Sur la notion de discipline scolaire
Authors: Chervel André 
Published: September 2019

On the notion of “school subject”
When one considers subjects taught at school and looks at their history one realizes they are not just an attempt at vulgarisation for young people but cultural objects of a particular nature. The example of the way latin was taught under the Ancien Régime, which made of Cicero a pagan prophet of Christianity, or that of the grammar taught in schools in the XIXth Century, which invented the complément circonstanciel, or, still, that of the Agrégation jury which elaborated what was to become the “dissertation littéraire” vouchsafe the creativity of the educative system. The culture developed at school and the culture of society at large are in a reciprocal relationship, a relationship, that is to say, which works both ways.
Regarder ? Dans quel sens ? L'image incorporée dans Whistlejacket de John Hawkes
Authors: Cristofovici Anca 
Published: September 2019

John Hawkes and visual thinking
The present study on the incorporation of image in John Hawkes’s Whistlejacket (1988) combines concepts of literary theory, psychoanalysis and the visual arts. The intense visualisation of psychic material is an outstanding feature of Hawkes's work. Consequently, the image and image-making in this novel narrated by a photographer are seen as a cluster of connotations : mental image, self-image, poetic image. These levels are related by means of specific textual strategies so as to help the reader “make sense” of a fictional world that appears as fragmented. One of the strategies of giving the illusion of a sense is the use of ellipsis and hyperbole as carriers of a psychic dynamics of lack and excess.
Le sens est un désir gigogne : sur Raymond Carver
Authors: Bardy Gilles 
Published: September 2019

Meaning and the Russian Dolls
Meaning is not only a matter of intentionality. Writing, as any other human production, has a manifest and a latent dimension : the minute study of two short stories by Raymond Carver (“The bath” and its longer version “A small, good thing”) makes it obvious. Apparently, the second short story is optimistic, unlike the first one : the death of the child is not a bottomless chasm, but a trial, harsh but surmountable. However, the detailed analysis of the two tales proves that their fantasy is similar : the extension of the second version is a nest of desire (a “matrockka-desire” ) fitted into the first text.
Sens et intersubjectivité
Authors: Pereira Frederico 
Published: September 2019

Meaning and intersubjectivity
This paper analyzes the problems which arise from a conception of “meaning” as being generated by a separation between subjects and also between subjects and the world . Which is typical of our cultural field. A contrary position is then developed which designates intersubjectivity as the proper territory in which meaning and signification should be studied. Dialogic conceptions are also mentioned.
Les versets sataniques : roman, théologie, histoire
Authors: Bident Christophe 
Published: September 2019

The Satanic Verses : Novel, Theology, History
Back in the days of the Inquisition : a religious authority condemns to death a so-called “ heretical author ”. This archaic judgement causes nothing but the usual excitement in the world. But beyond a man, a continent, a policy, the attack is against the novel, the western form of the narrative. A scandalous homage paid to literature, the experience of all perils.
A blasting homage, : everyone will talk of the text (to condemn or to defend its liberty), no one will read the coherence of the signs. Rushdie reminds us that History can be formalised through theologi¬ cal disputes, in which the novel does not want to find its finality : there can be traced its source, its different narrations, its initiatory, fantastic, mythical episodes. The novel deals with the difficulties of handing down cultures, with the impossibility to define identities ; with the dizziness of death instincts, the final act of faith in a destruc-ted ideal. It asserts that our systems of signs are indeed systems of beliefs and systematizations of the sacred.
Waiting for the Riddle : The Novels of J.M. Coetzee
Authors: Morse Ruth 
Published: September 2019

Le sphinx attend : les romans de J.AI. Coetzee
A la fin de son étude sur Œdipe et ses mythes, Jean-Pierre Ventant souligne le lien entre divers thèmes : celui du boiteux, du tyran, de la prise et de la perte du pouvoir, de l’accord ou du conflit entre les générations, de leur succession, selon ou contre la nature, de l’oubli et de la malédiction. Ces problèmes ont toujours préoccupé Coetzee, et particulièrement dans son dernier roman, The Master of Petersburg. La question du statut de l’artiste en Afrique du Sud s’y trouve transposée dans la Russie d’avant la Révolution : qui est responsable ? L’écrivain est-il un citoyen à part dans la polis, ou subit-il les mêmes lois ? Fait-il partie de la tyrannie qu’il dénonce ? La recherche du secret, sous l’apparence d’une soif de connaissance, n’est-elle pas plutôt associée à une certaine perversion de l’imagination, à une tolérance de la cruauté ?
Dial O for Oral : les belles histoires de l’oncle Paul Passy (1859-1940)
Authors: Bergheaud Anne 
Published: September 2019

Dial O for Oral. Uncle Paul Passy’s (1859-1940) best stories.
The foundation of the International Phonetic Association (formerly The Phonetic Teachers' Association) in 1886 is the outcome of much previous scientifically and practically oriented research. The birth of the Association is the result of a reaction of teachers to a crisis in the teaching of modern languages. The portrait of the founder of the Association, Paul Passy (1859-1940 ), phonetician, teacher and an outstanding personality, provides an opportunity for describing the interaction at work within an international community interested in the new field of phonetics, and for presenting the development of the field itself. In this essay, the relationships between the Association’s actions and standpoints (as well as those of P. Passy himself) and the cultural and historical background will be highlighted and explored.
Les relatifs which et that dans un corpus journalistique
Authors: Flintham Ronald 
Published: September 2019

Relatives which and that in a newspaper corpus.
Differences in the conditions of occurrence of relative which and that between American and British English were confirmed by analysis of a newspaper corpus in both dialects. A set of hypotheses within the framework of A. Culioli's utterer-centred approach are examined to account for the distribution in the British corpus. It is suggested that which tends to mark a complex anaphora based on proximal deixis with identification and a scanning operation establishing the interior of a topological space, whereas that is the surface trace of a simpler distal form of deixis by differentiation, constructing an exterior topological space. The which relatives tend to be qualitative or qualifying and the that relatives to have specifying or contrastive properties.
