FRAPPE: fast rank approximation with explainable features for tensors
Authors: Shiao William , Papalexakis Evangelos E. 
Published: September 2024

AbstractTensor decompositions have proven to be effective in analyzing the structure of multidimensional data. However, most of these methods require a key parameter: the number of desired components. In the case of the CANDECOMP/PARAFAC decomposition (CPD), the ideal value for the number of components is known as the canonical rank and greatly affects the quality of the decomposition results. Existing methods use heuristics or Bayesian methods to estimate this value by repeatedly calculating the CPD, making them extremely computationally expensive. In this work, we propose FRAPPE, the first method to estimate the canonical rank of a tensor without having to compute the CPD. This method is the result of two key ideas. First, it is much cheaper to generate synthetic data with known rank compared to computing the CPD. Second, we can greatly improve the generalization ability and speed of our model by generating synthetic data that matches a given input tensor in terms of size and sparsity. We can then train a specialized single-use regression model on a synthetic set of tensors engineered to match a given input tensor and use that to estimate the canonical rank of the tensor—all without computing the expensive CPD. FRAPPE is over $$24\times $$

Tablet Computers in Early Science Education: Enriching Teacher–Child Interactions
Authors: Studhalter Ueli Thomas , Jossen Priska , Seeli Marco , Tettenborn Annette 
Published: September 2024

AbstractEngaging in vivid conversations is crucial for the social and cognitive development of young children and for building their understanding of science phenomena. In this regard, educators play a pivotal role in shaping interactions with learners by providing adequate scaffolds to promote sustained shared thinking. Tablet computers are considered to have substantial potential for supporting learning, particularly in enriching communication and collaboration, as well as in making science phenomena more accessible. However, there are concerns that increased screen time may lead to social isolation. To address this situation, the present multiple-case study explores the impact of using tablet computers’ video functionality on the quality of teacher–child interactions during a specific play-based learning scenario in the domain of science. The investigation, which employed a mixed-method approach, followed two individual teachers separately during 24 lessons each in a videographic setup and isolated 200 science content-relevant interaction episodes. These episodes were coded according to their interaction quality in an inter-rater agreement procedure using MAXQDA. High-quality interactions were defined as those episodes involving a deep, prolonged, intellectual and content-specific exchange between the teacher and at least one child, based on both teacher and children playing their active roles in the participation of the talk. The results indicated that using tablets in the specific play scenario under investigation was associated with teacher–child interactions of longer duration, variable scaffold quality among teachers, and increased verbal engagement from children. These results counter the concerns that the use of digital media might lead to screen-based isolation and suggest that tablet computers can be harnessed for valuable educational interactions.

Published: September 2024

AbstractChildren with developmental disabilities (DD) including intellectual disability and autism, experience exclusion from social life and education in Ethiopia. Including children with DD in mainstream inclusive classes has potential to expand access to education and uphold their right to learn alongside typically developing peers. However, inadequate support in inclusive settings can hinder their participation and educational achievement. This study explores the perspectives of stakeholders on the ways in which inclusive education can support the needs or exacerbate the challenges of children with DD in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, and on recommendations to address the challenges. Thirty-nine participants with expertise or experience relevant to children with DD, including caregivers, educators, clinicians and other experts, took part in semi-structured interviews. Their responses were analysed using thematic template analysis. The themes developed identify four aspects which are most relevant to the potential positive and negative consequences of inclusive education for children with DD: learning and development, peer relationships, safety in school and inclusion in society. The themes encompass sub-themes of positive and negative consequences, and suggested improvements to facilitate positive effects. Identified priorities for action include enhanced teacher training, awareness-raising initiatives, tailoring infrastructure and manpower to safeguard children with DD and promoting government focus on successful inclusion. These recommendations can be implemented to facilitate well-structured inclusive education, where children with DD are supported to participate alongside typically developing peers, as well as to safeguard against the potential negative consequences of inclusion, paying sufficient attention to the distinctive needs of children with DD.

Published: September 2024

AbstractThe sexuality of older people was understood as non-existent or as something outside the prevailing norm. In this sense, analysing people's sexual knowledge and attitudes towards older people is a challenge for theory and practice. The aim of this study is to translate and validate the Aging Sexual Knowledge and Attitudes Scale (ASKAS) for the Portuguese population. A sample of 994 Portuguese adults (70.9% women, n = 705) completed the ASKAS-PT along with a series of self-report measures. Confirmatory factor analysis and the psychometric properties of the Portuguese (European) version of ASKAS-PT were investigated, particularly reliability, temporal stability, and convergent and critical validity. This study also examined the gender measurement invariance of the ASKAS-PT. After confirmatory factor analysis, a two-factor model fit the Portuguese version best. Reliability and validity results also showed good results, and the ASKAS-PT appears to be a gender-invariant measure. Overall, the Portuguese version of the ASKAS showed good psychometric properties and appears to be a valid and reliable measure for assessing knowledge and attitudes about aging.
Financial accounting in family business: a systematic literature review and future research agenda
Authors: Manzi Maria Angela , Netti Antonio , Favino Christian , Sarto Fabrizia 
Published: September 2024

AbstractAcademic researchers have recently recognised the impact of family firms’ idiosyncrasies and characteristics on financial accounting practices, and identified distinctions between family and non-family businesses. However, this issue still needs appropriate systematisation and discussion. It is important to understand how family businesses’ features shape financial accounting phenomena, but the most authoritative review on the topic dates back more than 10 years. We therefore conducted a systematic review of 133 articles on financial accounting in family firms published in peer-reviewed journals up to 2023. We aimed to assess what scholars have explored so far on this topic, interpreting findings using three levels of analysis: family, business, and individual. The novelty of our paper comes from using this framework to create a thematic map that provides a comprehensive overview of the current research on this topic and developing an extensive research agenda for future studies. The article also provides practical implications for family firm managers, practitioners, and regulators by clarifying the influence of characteristics of family businesses on accounting practices.
The Slovak ethos of plebeian resistance and the First World War
Authors: Gluchman Vasil , Gluchmanová Marta 
Published: September 2024

AbstractThe authors examine the Slovak ethos of plebeian resistance to the First World War in several of its forms. First, they examine intellectual forms of resistance against war, against its Christian justification. Several Slovak authors emphasized that the First World War was in direct contradiction to Christian ethics, asserting that it served as proof of the failure of all European nations and their elites, who were proud of their humanity and ability to solve problems peacefully. Secular authors who based their opposition to the First World War on universal cultural and moral values represented the second form of resistance. After the end of the war, they also expected the equal rights of the Slovak ethnic group in the new post-war situation. The third form of resistance is literature, and the authors of the article focused mainly on Milo Urban’s novel Živý bič (1927) as the most important anti-war novel of Slovak interwar literature reflecting wartime events in the Orava village of Ráztoky.
Williams for and Against. Politics as a Constitutively Normative Practice
Authors: Bermejo-Luque Lilian 
Published: September 2024

AbstractThe main goal of this paper is to show that politics constitutes a normative domain of its own. To this, a concept of political value that explains why the politically good provides reasons for actions is indispensable. I shape this concept by adopting the framework of political minimalism and developing one of its central tenets, namely, that politics, as a constitutively normative practice, specifies objective standards for evaluating political phenomena. I characterize the notion of political value in these terms to offer a non-moralist foundation for political normativity. In this endeavor, the work of Bernard Williams plays two opposing roles: while his metapolitical ideas exemplify the shortcomings of substantialist accounts of political normativity, his criticism of the morality system and his conception of practical rationality as all-things-considered practical deliberation are fundamental, to the point that the conception of political normativity endorsed here can be seen as an extension of Williams’ ideas on normativity in general. Finally, I draw some consequences from this account of political minimalism to show that this conception of political normativity can hardly be considered a variety of political realism.
Fatigue Damage Evolution in SS316L Produced by Powder Bed Fusion in Different Orientations with Reused Powder Feedstock
Authors: Kopec M. , Gunputh U. , Williams G. , Macek W. , Kowalewski Z.L. , Wood P. 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Background
Metal Laser Powder Bed Fusion Melting (LPBF-M) is considered economically viable and environmentally sustainable because of the possibility of reusing the residual powder feedstock leftover in the build chamber after a part build is completed. There is however limited information on the fatigue damage development of LPBF-M samples made from reused feedstock.

Objective
In this paper, the stainless steel 316 L (SS316L) powder feedstock was examined and characterised after 25 reuses, following which the fatigue damage development of material samples made from the reused powder was assessed.

Methods
The suitability of the powder to LPBF-M technology was evaluated by microstructural observations and measurements of Hall flow, apparent and tapped density as well as Carr’s Index and Hausner ratio. LPBF-M bar samples in three build orientations (Z – vertical, XY – horizontal, ZX – 45° from the build plate) were built for fatigue testing. They were then subjected to fatigue testing under load control using full tension and compression cyclic loading and stress asymmetry coefficient equal to -1 in the range of stress amplitude from ± 300 MPa to ± 500 MPa.

Results
Samples made from reused powder (25 times) in the LPBF-M process exhibited similar fatigue performance to fresh unused powder although a lower ductility for vertical samples was observed during tensile testing. Printing in horizontal (XY) and diagonal (ZX) directions, with reused powder, improved the service life of the SS316L alloy in comparison to the vertical (Z).

Conclusions
Over the 25 reuses of the powder feedstock there was no measurable difference in the flowability between the fresh (Hall Flow: 21.4 s/50 g) and reused powder (Hall Flow: 20.6 s/50 g). This confirms a uniform and stable powder feeding process during LPBF-M for both fresh and reused powder. The analysis of fatigue damage parameter, D, concluded cyclic plasticity and ratcheting to be the main mechanism of damage.

Published: September 2024

Abstract
The dissociative ionization of Ar dimers is investigated in femtosecond laser fields with intensities from 260 to 1020 TW/cm2. The three-dimensional momentum and kinetic-energy release of fragmental ions generated from the channels Ar2
2+→Ar++Ar+, Ar2
3+→Ar2++Ar+, and Ar2
4+→Ar2++Ar2+ were measured with a cold-target recoil-ion momentum spectrometer. It is shown that the laser intensity significantly modulates the kinetic energies and angular distributions of fragmental ions from dissociative double ionization. Laser-induced charge-transfer following one-site double ionization contributes relatively more to the dissociative double ionization at lower laser intensity. The calculation results of a one-dimensional model based on the WKB approximation suggest that the charge transfer is suppressed at higher laser intensity due to the core polarization effect. In addition, double, triple, and quadruple dissociative ionizations of Ar dimers are accompanied by frustrated-tunneling ionization that increases with the laser intensity.
“Improving Diet Quality of Children with Dyslipidemia Who also Exhibit Picky Eating Behaviors”
Authors: Carter Janet 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Purpose of the Review
This review is intended to serve as guidance for care providers working with children who have dyslipidemia and exhibit picky eating behaviors.

Recent Findings
Picky eating behaviors in children can be very stressful for caregivers and children alike, even if they may not reach clinical significance. In the setting of lipid disorder treatment, picky eating can present an even greater challenge, since many of the foods considered most heart-healthy are not often considered “kid-friendly”.

Summary
Care providers should validate caregivers’ concerns, screen for picky eating and be prepared to provide guidance to parents and a referral to a specialist, if needed. This review contains an itemized list of points to focus on with families and additional resources.

Published: September 2024

Abstract
Current European food packaging legislation requires exploring new alternatives to respond the challenges that lie ahead. Using sustainably sourced biomass, such as pruning residues, has significant potential for creating sustainable packaging. Avocado pruning fiber (10–40%) together with bio-polyethylene was used to produce biocomposites by thermoforming technology. The materials were evaluated for food contact suitability. Adding avocado pruning fiber to biopolyethylene improved processability, producing functional trays with up to 30% fiber. The biocomposites reduced S. aureus and L. monocytogenes adhesion, especially with 20% fiber, and enhanced antioxidant activity, reaching 17.82% SA/cm2 with 40% fiber. Soil degradation tests showed a 23% reduction for 40% fiber samples after 91 days. Migrations within the limits for hydrophilic, acidic, and fatty foods were obtained for samples containing up to 20% fiber. Cherry tomatoes stored in bio-based trays demonstrated comparable or superior preservation to commercial high-density-polyethylene trays, with reduced fungal growth, lower weight loss, and better color retention.
Combined large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the lung: case report with brief review
Authors: Agrawal Sujata , Paul Paramita 
Published: September 2024

AbstractLarge cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) in the lung is an uncommon and highly aggressive type of histological variation, representing only a small percentage of all lung cancer cases. The occurrence of combined LCNEC, distinguished by the coexistence of neuroendocrine and non-neuroendocrine elements within a single tumor, is even more infrequent. A 49-year-old male presented with lytic lesion of the mandible with suspected lung metastasis. Biopsy of the mandibular lesion was reported as ameloblastic fibroma. The biopsy of the lung lesion turned out to be combined LCNEC of the lung. Further positron emission tomography (PET) evaluation showed multiple metastatic deposits in bilateral lungs, mediastinal nodes, liver, bone, adrenal, and kidney. The patient has received seven cycles of paclitaxel and carboplatin with decrease in size of nodes and lesion post 6 months. Herein, we report a case of combined LCNEC with lung adenocarcinoma which is infrequently encountered and has been a subject of research with a brief review of literature.
To Gain One More Close Person: A Polish Study on How Volunteers Working With Seniors Perceive the Significance of their Work and What they Consider Essential to Continue It
Authors: Nowakowska Iwona 
Published: September 2024

AbstractIn an ageing and ever lonelier society, volunteering based on intergenerational relationships is becoming an increasingly salient form of support, but also a valuable leisure activity. With the help of thematic analysis, the study explored (1) how young adult volunteers working with seniors perceive their work and (2) what encouraged them to take up the volunteering role and what makes it easier or possible for them to remain active. Interviews were conducted in Poland in 2020 with 10 volunteers aged between 22 and 35 (6 women, 4 men) who had experience of working with seniors during the year preceding the study. Seven issues emerged from the analysis: the context in which volunteering began; personal characteristics of the volunteer; daily difficulties of the elderly; keeping the senior company in transience and loneliness; attachment and relationship between the volunteer and the elderly person(s); personal benefits of involvement in volunteering; social benefits of involvement in volunteering. The results were discussed in the light of the volunteer process model and the types of volunteers’ motivations. Several volunteers also pointed to the role of volunteering not only in building a norm of reciprocity in relationships with seniors, but also more broadly in the society.

AbstractThyroid cancer (TC) represents 3% of global cancer incidence. Recent changes have optimized treatment decisions based on risk assessment, molecular profiling, and imaging assessment, leading the development of targeted agents that have modified the natural history of this disease. This increasing complexity on treatment options requires careful assessment at the different stages of the disease to provide the most suitable approach from diagnosis to long-term follow-up. This guideline aims to offer a comprehensive and practical overview on the current status and last updates of TC management.
Increasing Police Presence: Examining Race, Ethnicity, and Perceived Neighborhood Disadvantage as Correlates of Support
Authors: Metcalfe Christi , Bolaji Qassim 
Published: September 2024

AbstractGiven its empirical and public support, increasing police presence seems to be a viable preventive policy option for police agencies. However, the theoretical and empirical literature is not clear on whether this support would vary along race/ethnicity and perceived neighborhood disadvantage, which is relevant given that policies of this kind would likely have a greater impact on disadvantaged communities of color. Using survey data from a national sample, we found that racial and ethnic identity were unrelated to support for increased police presence, while perceived neighborhood disorder was related to greater support for police presence. We also found that neighborhood disorder, social cohesion, and informal social control were indirectly related to support for increased police presence through perceptions of police legitimacy and fear of crime, demonstrating some evidence of the overpolicing-underpolicing paradox in disadvantaged communities. Policy implications of these findings are discussed.

Published: September 2024

AbstractRecent advancements in the development of positron emission tomography (PET) tracers have significantly enhanced our ability to image neuroinflammatory processes and neurotransmitter systems, which are vital for understanding and treating neurodegenerative and psychiatric disorders. Similarly, innovative tracers in oncology provide detailed images of the metabolic and molecular characteristics of tumors, which are crucial for tailoring targeted therapies and monitoring responses, including radiotherapy. Notable advancements include programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1)-targeting agents for lung cancer, prostate-specific membrane antigen-based tracers for prostate cancer, chemokine receptor-targeting agents for hematological malignancies, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-targeting tracers for various cancers, Claudin 18 based tracers for epithelial tumors, glutamine tracers for colorectal cancer, and ascorbic acid analogs for assessing cancer metabolism and therapy efficacy. Additionally, novel tracers have been developed for non-neurological and non-oncological applications, including adrenal imaging, amyloidosis, and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. This overview focuses on the newly developed tracers, particularly those used in neurology and oncology.
On Zero Entropy Homeomorphisms of the Pseudo-arc
Authors: Činč Jernej 
Published: September 2024

AbstractIn this paper we study interval maps f with zero topological entropy that are crooked; i.e. whose inverse limit with f as the single bonding map is the pseudo-arc. We show that there are uncountably many zero entropy pairwise non-conjugate zero entropy crooked interval maps with different sets of fixed points. We also show that there are uncountably many crooked maps that are pairwise non-conjugate and have exactly two fixed points. Furthermore, we provide a characterization of crooked interval maps that are under or above the diagonal.
