Weighted spiking neural P systems with target indications
Authors: Wu Ruina 
Published: August 2024

Spiking neural p systems (SNP systems) are a distributed parallel computing device inspired by biology. A new variant—Weighted spiking neural P systems with target indications (WSNPTI systems) was proposed. By introducing the target indications into spiking neural P systems with weighted synapses, WSNPTI systems change the traditional spikes sending only to all synaptic connected neurons, but selectively sending the spikes to the specified neurons. WSNPTI systems simulate the workings of the human brain while using non-mechanical transmission methods to compute. This paper proves that the system is Turing universal as a number generation and an accepting device.

Authors: Zhou Tianqi , Wu Jianfeng 
Published: August 2024

In the post-epidemic era, virtual partners have become good helpers in home fitness. Previous studies have shown that different interactive feedback from virtual partners will have different effects on individual sports incentives, among which sports incentives objectively include the improvement of sports ability. In this research, the virtual partner's exercise companion experiment was carried out, and the exercise oxygen uptake was taken as the dependent variable, and the factorial experiment was carried out in 3 x 2 (with or without positive encouragement feedback), in which the positive encouragement feedback included goal-oriented encouragement and non-goal-oriented encouragement. It is found that both moderate negative feedback and positive encouraging feedback of virtual partners can improve individual exercise oxygen uptake, and moderate negative feedback is more effective.

Authors: Zhang Yue , Li MingHeng 
Published: August 2024

To enhance the communication rate, we deploy one active reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) and one passive RIS to cooperatively assist the downlink communication, while meeting the constraints of base station transmission power, total Active RIS power, and RIS unit modulus constraint. Due to the nonlinear coupling of multiple variables in the objective function, non-convexity is caused. Therefore, an alternating optimization algorithm (AO) is proposed, which uses semi-definite programming (SDP) based algorithm to optimize the transmit beamforming vector, ARIS reflection matrix, and PRIS diagonal phase shift matrix. The simulation results have verified the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, which indicates that optimizing the coefficients can significantly improve the spectrum efficiency of wireless networks.

The problem of excessive cadmium in farmland soil in China is severe, and it is of great significance to explore suitable passivators for specific polluted soils. Three typical and representative commercially available passivators were selected as the test agents, and simulated the natural production process of irrigation and drainage in farmland soil. Through soil cultivation experiments, the remediation effects of different types of passivators and water management on Cd contaminated farmland soil in a certain area of Sichuan were explored. The results showed that the passivator agent 1# based on organic matter reduced the soil pH value, the passivator agent 2# based on alkaline substance and the passivator agent 3# based on clay mineral could increase the soil pH value in different degrees, and the passivator agent 2# was better than the passivator agent 3#. Under flooding condition, soil pH value can be increased. The three passivator agents can increase the content of soil organic matter in different degrees, and the maximum increase rate was 35.2% under 8%. The three passivator agents can reduce the available Cd in different degrees, and the maximum reduction of passivator agents 1#, 2# and 3# was 61.8%, 67.1% and 46.4% respectively. The correlation analysis showed that the flooding state was conducive to the decrease of available Cd. Under the action of passivator agent 1# , the correlation between available Cd and pH was weak, and there was a strong negative correlation between Cd and organic matter (R=0.9922). Under the action of passivator agent 2#, available Cd had a strong negative correlation with pH (R=0.8702) and a weak negative correlation with organic matter (R=0.4041). Under the action of passivator agent 3#, available Cd was strongly negatively correlated with soil pH value and organic matter.

Published: August 2024

Background: Readmission, defined as any admission after discharge from the same hospital, has negative implications for health outcomes. This study aims to identify the sociodemographic and clinical factors associated with hospital readmission among psychiatric patients.
Methodology: This case-control study analyzed 202 clinical records of patients admitted to a psychiatric hospital between 2019–2021. The sample was selected using simple random sampling. Qualitative variables were presented using frequencies, percentages, and chi-square tests for association. Quantitative variables were described using central tendency measures and dispersion of data, investigated with the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Student's t-test or Wilcoxon test as appropriate. Regression analysis was conducted to determine factors linked to readmission. p < 0.05 was considered.
Results: Women accounted for a higher readmission rate (59%). Patients diagnosed with schizophrenia had a higher readmission rate (63%), experienced longer transfer times to the hospital during readmissions, and had shorter hospital stays. Polypharmacy and pharmacological interactions were associated with readmission. Olanzapine treatment was identified as a risk factor for readmission (ExpB = 3.203, 95% CI 1.405–7.306, p = 0.006).
Conclusions: The findings suggest avoiding polypharmacy and medications with high side effect profiles to reduce readmissions. This study offers valuable insights for clinical decision-making from admission to discharge planning, aiming to enhance the quality of care.

Conflicts between heirs are often caused by the desire to get an excess portion, which creates a sense of injustice and can lead to conflict. This has been proven by the high demand for mediation and lawsuits regarding inheritance in Indonesian religious courts. This research aims to answer questions related to regulations regarding the distribution of inheritance between male and female children in Muslim countries, including Indonesia. The type of research used in this research is normative juridical research (doctrinal legal research) and uses the form of library study research, by reviewing literature that is relevant to the theme being discussed. This research is descriptive-comparative in nature by explaining legal regulations and comparing inheritance rights for sons and daughters in Muslim countries. The results of this research are that the concept of Li Az-Zakari Mitslu Hazzi al Untsayain the Qur'an has become a permanent guideline in the division of inheritance, so that the regulation of 2:1 distribution of inheritance between sons and daughters is widely implemented by Muslim countries. such as Indonesia, Malaysia, Egypt, Morocco, Jordan and Tunisia. Several Muslim countries tend to maintain the provisions in faraid law regarding inheritance distribution. This is different from the distribution of inheritance in Turkey where the ratio of inheritance between sons and daughters is 1:1. The comparison of inheritance in Turkey is influenced by the factor of equal rights between men and women regarding inheritance rights.
