Application of GNSS derived precipitable water vapour prediction in West Africa
Authors: Acheampong A. , Obeng K. 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
Atmospheric water vapour, a major component in weather systems serves as the main source for precipitation, provides latent heat which helps maintain the earth’s energy balance and a major parameter in Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models. An observational technique based on the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) has made it possible to easily retrieve Precipitable Water (PW) at station’s antenna position with very high spatial and temporal variabilities. GNSS techniques are superior to ground-based and balloons sensors in terms of accuracy, ease of use, wider coverage and easier assimilation into NWP models. This study sought to use prediction models using daily observational data from Four (4) International GNSS Service stations in West Africa. The best prediction model can be used in cases of station outages and to predict PW over data poor regions using computed Zenith Tropospheric Delays (ZTD). gLAB software was used to process the stations’ data in Precise Point Positioning mode and PW were retrieved using station’s temperature and pressure values. Computed PW were compared against Total Column Water Vapour from ERA-Interim Reanalysis data in 2016. Correlation coefficient (R2) values ranging from 0.947 — 0.995 were obtained for the four stations. With computed PW’s, three regression models were tested to find the best-fit with PW as the dependent variable and ZTD being the independent variable. The quadratic model gave the highest R2 and lowest RMSE values as against the linear and exponential models. Time series forecasts models such as moving average, autoregressive, exponential smoothing and autoregressive integrated moving average were also employed. The forecasts results were compared against ZTD with autoregressive model reporting the highest R2 and lowest RMSE amongst the forecast models developed.
“Chariots” in contact: on the value of the signs *91, *92 and *94 of Hieroglyphic Luwian
Authors: Giusfredi Federico 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
In this paper, I will re-examine the evidence for the interpretation of a complex compound logogram of the Hieroglyphic Luwian syllabary, PES(2). SCALA.ROTAE. I will also offer an improved interpretation of the text of the Korkun stela. Finally, I will tentatively suggest that the specific meaning of the compound logogram PES(2).SCALA may depend on the contact with the semiotic inventory of the cuneiform writing system.

Abstract
This article concerns two Aegean inscriptions published within the last few decades, one in Cretan Hieroglyphic (SY Hf 01) and one in Linear A (PK Zb 25), both of which in their respective publications posed problematic interpretations for the editors of these texts.
Zum Agora-Pfeiler in Xanthos VI: das Westgedicht auf Cheriga und Muni (TL 44d)
Authors: Schürr Diether 
Published: October 2019

Zusammenfassung
Der poetische Text auf der Westseite des Agorapfeilers in Xanthos wird nach eingehender Überprüfung neu ediert, ein Vokabular erstellt und die poetische Gestalt mit Abteilung der Strophen und versuchsweiser Abteilung der Verse und Halbverse rekonstruiert. Dieser Text unterscheidet sich deutlich von dem poetischen Text auf der Nordseite unten: Es handelt sich offenbar um zwei verschiedene Gedichte, die allerdings beide von dem Dynasten Cheriga handeln. Er kommt hier aber nicht mehr im Nominativ vor, und an seine Stelle tritt in Strophe IX und XI eine Frau namens Muni, vermutlich seine Witwe. Der Text ist in Blöcke von je vier Strophen gegliedert, wie nur hier vorkommende Schlüsselwörter zeigen, die in der jeweils letzten Strophe vorkommen. Von ihnen gehören mara- und das Antonym mrssχa- zu mere/i- ‚Gebot, Gesetz‘. Die letzte Strophe fehlt, weil der Text aus Platzmangel mitten in Strophe XXIII abbricht. Das Hauptthema dürfte die Legitimierung der Regentschaft der Muni sein, wobei aber auch ein Mordfall eine Rolle zu spielen scheint. Der im Nordgedicht prominente Gott Natri = Apollon kommt hier nicht mehr vor, und neben den aus dem Nordgedicht ubernommenen Wettergott Trqqiz von Tuli treten hier ab Strophe XVI die Nymphen von Phellos wie im Piχre-Poem von Antiphellos. In Zusammenhang mit ihnen scheint sich mit Qñtili in Strophe XIX auch der Dichter zu nennen. Die Zugehörigkeit zum Perserreich wird nirgendwo deutlich, und neben traditionellen Formeln mit luwischen Parallelen wird auch griechischer Einfluß sichtbar, wenn auch nur in Namen (Herakles, Xanthos und Phellos).
The Lydian word for ‘prosecutor’
Authors: Sasseville David 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
The present paper offers a contextual analysis of the Lydian title šiwraλm(i)- of unclear semantics and compares it with the Greek title προήγορος ‘advocate, prosecutor’ found in a Greek inscription from Ephesus. Both titles have in common that they refer to officials related to the cult of Artemis in Ephesus and Sardis. The comparative analysis yields new information on the cult of the goddess and contributes to our understanding of the Lydian lexicon.
Conquering the Box Office: Factors Influencing Success of International Movies in Russia
Authors: Gaenssle Sophia , Budzinski Oliver , Astakhova Daria 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
This paper empirically examines factors influencing box office success of international movies in Russia between 2012 and 2016. It adds to existing research on national movie markets, by highlighting the relevance of differences in culture, institutions, language, and consumption habits for movie success. Three groups of success factors are distinguished: distribution related (e.g. budget, franchise), brand and star effects (e.g. top actors or directors), and evaluation sources (e.g. critics and audience rating). We add novel region-specific variables like seasonality, time span between the world and local release, attendance of international stars at Russian movie premieres, and title adaptation to Russian culture. The results indicate that budget, franchise, employment of popular actors and directors, electronic word of mouth and audience ratings exert a significantly positive influence on Russian box office success. However, we find significantly negative effects for international critics and, interestingly, the adaption of movie titles. The main contributions of our study are (i) success factors vary between countries with different cultures, (ii) region-specific factors matter, and consequently (iii) results from one market (e.g. the US) cannot easily be generalised.
From Slash Fan Fiction to Crip Fan Fiction: What Role Does Disability Have in Fandom?
Authors: Newman-Stille Derek 
Published: October 2019

Slash fiction is perceived by scholars like Henry Jenkins as capable of presenting a counterhegemonic message that critically questions and disrupts power structures in the production of fiction. Slash fiction presents a critical queering of characters, disrupting the heterocentrism of canonical fiction. Slash fiction is a creation of fan fiction where canonically heterosexual couples are paired with one another in love relationships, allowing for an imagined queer potential.
Even though slash, with its queering of relationships would seem to be a doorway into empowerment for disability fiction - replacing one oppressed identity (queer) for another (disability), many of the conventions of slash, mixed with the overwhelming social power of stereotypes around disability serve to further replicate patterns of oppression upon disabled characters. One of the conventions of slash fiction is the need to make canonically straight male characters more vulnerable, more willing to explore their vulnerability in relationships. This vulnerability allows for male protagonists to disrupt the rigid boundaries of patriarchal, heterosexist constructions of masculinity by making the characters more open to vulnerabilities, which tend to be constructed as threats to the construction of patriarchal masculinity. Because of disability’s cultural association with vulnerability in the cultural imagination, disablement is often utilized by slash fiction authors as a means of achieving vulnerability of the characters in a slash fiction relationship. These relationships are often referred to as “Hurt/Comfort” or “H/C” and often depend on the assumption that disablement represents a weakening of the disabled character, problematically representing disability as weakness.
Through an examination of the association between slash and disability on the popular fan fiction site Archive of Our Own, this paper illustrates that although slash fiction has the potential to represent a liberatory counterhegemonic text, it fails to do so where disability is concerned and relies on tropes and assumptions about disability in order to ‘queer’ hegemonic texts.

Text mining adalah proses ekstraksi pola berupa informasi dan pengetahuan yang berguna dari sejumlah besar sumber data tak terstruktur. Salah satu perkembangan text mining adalah ruang lingkup perbaikan dari pemanfaatan sebuah “side information” yang digunakan untuk membantu proses klastering yang lebih efisien. “side information” yang dimiliki data dapat membantu proses text mining jika “side information” tersebut bersifat informatif. Di dalam “side information” , metadata merupakan bagian dari “side information” yang dimiliki oleh data. Oleh karena itu, algoritma klastering partisi klasik dan model probabilistik dalam text mining telah dikembangkan untuk memproses data bersama “side information” dengan menggunakan algoritma Content and Auxiliary attribute Based Text Clustering (COATES). Adapun proses klastering ini menggunakan inisialisasi klaster dengan algoritma k-means berdasarkan perhitungan jarak euclidean distance.

Misalkan G graf berhingga yang tidak memuat loop dan sisi rangkap. Matriks keterhubungan titik A(G) dari graf G adalah matriks dengan entri aij = 1 jika vi terhubung langsung dengan vj dan aij = 0 untuk lainnya. Matriks derajat D(G) dari graf G adalah matriks diagonal dengan entri dii merupakan derajat titik vi di G. Matriks signless-Laplace dari graf G adalah L+(G) = D(G) + A(G). Matriks detour DD(G) dari graf G adalah matriks dengan entri ddij merupakan panjang lintasan terpanjang dari vi ke vj. Spektrum dari suatu matriks merupakan matriks yang memuat nilai eigen pada baris pertama dan multiplisitas masing-masing nilai eigen pada baris kedua. Spektrum yang diperoleh dari matriks L+(G) disebut spektrum signless-Laplace sedangkan spektrum yang diperoleh dari matriks DD(G) disebut spektrum detour. Penelitian ini menyajikan rumus untuk menghitung spektrum signless-Laplace graf konjugasi dari grup dihedral D2n untuk n ganjil (n ³ 5) dan spektrum detour graf konjugasi dari grup dihedral D2n untuk ganjil (n ³ 3) dan genap (n ³ 6).

Authors: Rohaeti Embay , Andriyati Ani 
Published: October 2019

Masih tingginya kasus perokok di Kota Bogor menjadi alasan bagi masyarakat, praktisi kesehatan, pemerintah untuk mengambil langkah dan kebijakan yang tepat dalam mencegah meluasnya perokok di Kota Bogor. Sebagai salah satu bidang ilmu, matematika turut memberikan peranan penting dalam mencegah meluasnya perokok yaitu melalui model matematika terkait peningkatan jumlah perokok. Pada model matematika dinamika perokok, individu dalam populasi (N) dibagi ke dalam empat kelompok yaitu kelompok perokok potensial (P), kelompok perokok kadang-kadang (L), kelompok perokok berat (S), dan kelompok mantan perokok (Q). Model matematika dinamika perokok dikembangkan dengan melibatkan faktor efikasi diri untuk berhenti merokok, sehingga model matematika yang terbentuk tersebut diharapkan dapat lebih mendekati keadaan nyata dinamika perokok di Kota Bogor, langkah selanjutnya model matematika tersebut dianalisis secara analitik dan numerik. Berdasarkan hasil yang diperoleh bahwa pada kondisi bebas perokok, jumlah perokok kadang-kadang akan mendekati nol pada 16 tahun yang akan datang dan pada kondisi marak perokok, jumlah perokok berat terus meningkat dari tahun ke tahun. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa setelah adanya faktor efikasi diri untuk berhenti merokok jumlah perokok di Kota Bogor mengalami penurunan tetapi tidak akan mencapai nol.

Published: October 2019

Indonesia merupakan negara endemik hepatitis peringkat ketiga sedunia. Hepatitis merupakan penyakit menular yang disebabkan oleh virus. Penyakit hepatitis terbagi menjadi beberapa tipe, salah satunya virus hepatitis A (HAV). Model matematika yang memodelkan penyebaran penyakit ini adalah model yang dibuat oleh Marco Ajelli. Marco Ajelli membuat model metapopulasi pada transmisi virus hepatitis A (HAV) yang diterapkan di negara Italia. Hasil yang diperoleh adalah vaksinasi yang dilakukan di salah satu negara bagian (Puglia) dapat mengurangi secara signifikan jumlah penderita di negara tersebut secara keseluruhan. Skripsi ini mengajukan sebuah model yang dapat diterapkan di Indonesia khususnya di Jawa Barat, Jawa Tengah dan Jawa Timur. Simulasi dilakukan untuk mengetahui pengaruh program vaksinasi yang dilakukan pada satu wilayah terhadap wilayah yang lain dan mengetahui wilayah yang paling optimal untuk diberikan program vaksinasi secara massal jika program vaksinasi massal hanya dapat dilakukan pada satu wilayah saja. Oleh karena itu, faktor mobilitas spatial merupakan faktor yang sangat diperhatikan. Dari hasil simulasi yang dilakukan di daerah Jawa Barat, Jawa Tengah dan Jawa Timur diperoleh kesimpulan bahwa program vaksinasi yang dilakukan di Jawa Timur, akan secara optimal mengurangi jumlah penderita hepatitis A di Jawa Barat, Jawa Tengah dan Jawa Timur.

Introdução: O ameloblastoma, neoplasia benigna derivada do epitélio odontogênico, é um tumor localmente invasivo e agressivo. Representa 11% de todos os tumores odontogênicos e, especificamente, 1% de todos os tumores odontogênicos epiteliais.Objetivo: Descrever um caso clínico de ameloblastoma unicístico (AU) de grande extensão, com 7 anos de acompanhamento.Relato do caso: Paciente do sexo feminino, de 13 anos de idade, foi referenciada à clínica de estomatologia exibindo uma lesão extensa em região de mandíbula direita. Radiograficamente, observou-se área radiolúcida bem delimitada que se estendia da região de corpo mandibular até o processo condilar, ocasionando expansão da cortical óssea, reabsorção radicular e deslocamento dos dentes 47 e 48. Posteriormente a biópsia incisional, o diagnóstico histopatológico foi de AU. Foi realizada descompressão e, 7 meses depois, a enucleação cirúrgica foi feita com a exodontia dos dentes 47 e 48. Após 7 anos de acompanhamento, não foi observado nenhum sinal clínico de recorrência.Conclusão: A técnica de descompressão cirúrgica seguida da enucleação da lesão para tratamento de AU proporciona menor morbidade ao paciente e maior potencial de neoformação óssea.

Esophagectomy for End-Stage Achalasia
Authors: Ruchkin Dmitry Valerievich , Okonskaya Diana Evgenievna , Yan Maria Nikolaevna 
Published: October 2019

Treatment for achalasia of cardia is multidirectional nowadays and depends on several factors such as patient’s sex and age, type and stage of disease, co-morbidity and complications. However the treatment for end-stage achalasia is still controversial. Ones who advocate organ preservation surgery consider esophagectomy an ultima ration. These authors conceive that esophagectomy is too traumatic for benign disease with low progression. Esophagectomy as a first approach for end-stage achalasia is recommended by others authors who believe that progredient course of disease (nonreversible strongly dilated and atonic esophagus), debilitating dysphagia, regurgitation, aspiration syndrome and ineffective intervention in cardia make the extirpation of the esophagus necessary. Persistent degeneration of life quality and high possibility of such devastating symptoms as aspiration and esophageal cancer alongside with unacceptable results of myotomy raise questions on the effectiveness of the organ preservation surgery for end-stage achalasia
