Advancing Accuracy in Multimodal Medical Tasks Through Bootstrapped Language-Image Pretraining (BioMedBLIP): Performance Evaluation Study
Authors: Naseem Usman , Thapa Surendrabikram , Masood Anum 
Published: May 2024

Background
Medical image analysis, particularly in the context of visual question answering (VQA) and image captioning, is crucial for accurate diagnosis and educational purposes.

Objective
Our study aims to introduce BioMedBLIP models, fine-tuned for VQA tasks using specialized medical data sets such as Radiology Objects in Context and Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-Chest X-ray, and evaluate their performance in comparison to the state of the art (SOTA) original Bootstrapping Language-Image Pretraining (BLIP) model.

Methods
We present 9 versions of BioMedBLIP across 3 downstream tasks in various data sets. The models are trained on a varying number of epochs. The findings indicate the strong overall performance of our models. We proposed BioMedBLIP for the VQA generation model, VQA classification model, and BioMedBLIP image caption model. We conducted pretraining in BLIP using medical data sets, producing an adapted BLIP model tailored for medical applications.

Results
In VQA generation tasks, BioMedBLIP models outperformed the SOTA on the Semantically-Labeled Knowledge-Enhanced (SLAKE) data set, VQA in Radiology (VQA-RAD), and Image Cross-Language Evaluation Forum data sets. In VQA classification, our models consistently surpassed the SOTA on the SLAKE data set. Our models also showed competitive performance on the VQA-RAD and PathVQA data sets. Similarly, in image captioning tasks, our model beat the SOTA, suggesting the importance of pretraining with medical data sets. Overall, in 20 different data sets and task combinations, our BioMedBLIP excelled in 15 (75%) out of 20 tasks. BioMedBLIP represents a new SOTA in 15 (75%) out of 20 tasks, and our responses were rated higher in all 20 tasks (P<.005) in comparison to SOTA models.

Conclusions
Our BioMedBLIP models show promising performance and suggest that incorporating medical knowledge through pretraining with domain-specific medical data sets helps models achieve higher performance. Our models thus demonstrate their potential to advance medical image analysis, impacting diagnosis, medical education, and research. However, data quality, task-specific variability, computational resources, and ethical considerations should be carefully addressed. In conclusion, our models represent a contribution toward the synergy of artificial intelligence and medicine. We have made BioMedBLIP freely available, which will help in further advancing research in multimodal medical tasks.

Reflections on the Construction of Strategic Performance Management System in Chinese Manufacturing Enterprises
Authors: Can Hu , Bin Abdul Latiff Dr. Ahmed Razman 
Published: May 2024

In the surge of global economic integration, China's manufacturing industry is poised at the forefront of a transformational upgrade. Beyond the hum of production lines, the vital pulse lies within the robust rhythm of Strategic Performance Management Systems (SPMS). Yet, studies indicate that despite China's manufacturing sector advancing towards "intelligent manufacturing" and innovation, there are numerous areas within strategic performance management systems that urgently demand enhancement. In the coming years, for China's manufacturing industry to secure higher value positioning within the global supply chain and assert dominance in niche markets, it must seize the nerve center of strategic performance management. Confronted with a series of challenges including slowing growth, rising costs, and tightening environmental regulations, manufacturing enterprises urgently need to construct an efficient and precise performance management system. However, in reality, many enterprises still exhibit a weak strategic execution, lacking a systematic performance orientation and employee incentive mechanisms, often resulting in a disconnect between strategic objectives and performance management. The factors affecting the effective implementation of strategic performance management within enterprises are intricate. Internal factors primarily encompass the rigidity of corporate culture, bottlenecks in leadership style and employee engagement, as well as hindrances in information sharing and communication mechanisms. External factors involve the volatility of market environments, unclear policy directions, and intensifying international competition. The formulation of a comprehensive performance management system undoubtedly holds profound significance for optimizing resource allocation, reinforcing core competitiveness, and enhancing strategic responsiveness.

COMPREENDENDO A POLISSEMIA DO CONCEITO DARWINISTA DE ADAPTAÇÃO EM LIVROS DIDÁTICOS DE BIOLOGIA DO ENSINO MÉDIO

Published: May 2024

O presente trabalho tem como objetivo analisar a polissemia do conceito darwinista de adaptação em livros didáticos de Biologia do Ensino Médio aprovados no Programa Nacional do Livro Didático de 2015. Como ferramenta teórico-metodológica, foi utilizada uma matriz semântica contendo dimensões ontológicas e epistemológicas que forneceram as bases para a proposição de zonas de um modelo de Perfil Conceitual do conceito de adaptação. As análises mostraram que o uso frequente do conceito de adaptação na abordagem de conteúdos de Zoologia, Botânica, Paleontologia e Fisiologia reforçou o papel integrador e central da Evolução no discurso escolar. Prevaleceu entre as unidades de registro uma noção utilitarista da adaptação como estado de ser ou para referir-se a características dos seres-vivos, nas quais a funcionalidade aparece como condição suficiente para defini-las como adaptações, independentemente de sua origem por seleção natural. Esse modo de apresentar as adaptações pode levar os estudantes a relegarem o papel da seleção natural em sua explicação a um segundo plano, ou mesmo a desconsiderá-lo inteiramente, ou a compreendê-la como um processo que atua necessariamente para produzir traços adequados às condições atuais do meio. Diversas abordagens envolvendo o conceito de adaptação enfatizaram as noções de objetivo e propósito, desde uma perspectiva teleológica. O uso recorrente dessas explicações teleológicas pode estar associado ao fato de que esse modo de pensar é bastante comum nas atividades cognitivas, de tal maneira que seu uso seria justificado pela expectativa de que uma linguagem baseada nele poderia apresentar valor heurístico na evolução conceitual dos estudantes. Há, contudo, uma necessidade de fundamentar essas explicações apropriadamente, desde uma abordagem evolutiva e/ou organizacional dos sistemas vivos, de tal maneira que modos de pensar incompatíveis com o entendimento científico na biologia contemporânea não sejam promovidos. Isso traz dificuldades que são de enfrentamento potencialmente complicado no ensino médio, especialmente se considerarmos a ausência na formação de professores, em geral, de uma fundamentação apropriada de explicações teleológicas válidas à luz do pensamento biológico contemporâneo.

Fruit chips are healthy snacks because of their high fiber content. One of the fruit commodities being developed is the starfruit (Averrhoa carambola L.) commodity. Starfruit is a fruit that is widely processed into other processed foods, because the fruit is easily damaged and has a relatively short shelf life of 3 to 4 days. Fruit chips are more resistant to storage than fresh fruit because their water content is low and physiological processes no longer occur. The equipment used to make fruit chips is a vacuum fryer which has the advantage of frying fruit into chips. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of frying temperature and pressure on product quality in the manufacture of starfruit chips using vacuum frying and to determine the optimal temperature and pressure for frying starfruit chips using vacuum frying. The research method used was an experimental design in the form of a factorial Completely Randomized Design (CRD). Experimental factors in this study used two factors, temperature (T), namely temperature 75°C, 80°C, 85°C and pressure (P) during the frying process namely -68 cmHg, -70 cmHg and -72 cmHg, with as many repetitions as 3 times to produce 27 experimental units. The parameters observed in this study were the analysis of material shrinkage (yield), water content, organoleptic tests, and analysis of storage of starfruit chips. It can be concluded that the optimal choice of temperature and pressure in the operation of a vacuum frying equipment for making starfruit chips is 80°C with a low frying pressure of -72 cmHg. The quality of starfruit chips with a temperature of 80°C and a frying pressure of -72 cmHg was included in the best product category in this study based on overall acceptance which had a material yield value of 13.09%, a moisture content of 4.64%, and a color organoleptic test score of 4. 13 (yellow), aroma 3.67 (starfruit aroma is rather strong), taste 4.40 (slightly sweet), crispness 4.00 (crunchy).

Charles Wesley and the “Peaceable Reign” of Christ
Authors: Chilcote Paul W. 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
One of the neglected themes in the lyrical theology of Charles Wesley is the kingdom of God, what he describes as the peaceable reign of Christ. Inspired by the biblical witness, Wesley's vision revolves around the concepts of reconciliation; the reign in the heart; and righteousness, joy, peace, justice, and compassion as the constitutive elements of an already-but-not-yet reality.
Barrier Function-Based Integral Sliding Mode Controller Design for a Single-Link Rotary Flexible Joint Robot
Authors: Mohammad Ahmed Mohsen , AL-Samarraie Shibly Ahmed , Jaber Alaa Abdulhady 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
This paper proposes and evaluates a novel control approach for trajectory tracking, stability enhancement, and vibration reduction of a flexible joint robot (FJR). The FJR is a 2-degree-of-freedom underactuated nonlinear system that is challenging to control due to vibration, underactuation, uncertainties, and external disturbances. The control objectives are high trajectory tracking performance together with suppressing vibration. The proposed control approach uses integral sliding mode control (ISMC) combined with a barrier function based on back-stepping. This ensures robust and smooth performance by eliminating the reaching phase where sliding mode control (SMC) is typically not robust. Robustness is thus guaranteed from the start. The FJR is modeled as a 4th-order system using Lagrangian mechanics and decomposed into two 2nd-order subsystems for control design. Sliding variables are defined for each subsystem. Using these variables, the proposed control achieves robust trajectory tracking, stability, and vibration reduction. Numerical simulations in MATLAB validate the superior performance of the proposed ISMC-barrier function control compared to conventional ISMC for the FJR. This novel control approach addresses the challenges of controlling this FJR.

Published: May 2024

تنطلق هذه المعالجة من خلال ثلاث قضايا نقدية هي : التناص، فن الاستهلال، المعارضة. ولسنا هنا بصدد متابعة النشأة الأولى لهذه المصطلحات، ولا كيفية تطورها، إنما هدفنا سينصب على دراسة النصين لاستجلاء جوانب الإبداع فيهما عبر التناص والمعارضة، ومن خلال براعة الاستهلال لدى الشاعرين.
عارض البارودي عدداً من الشعراء العرب، إلا أن معارضته لأبي فراس الحمداني تكتسب أهمية خاصة تتعدى تأثر البارودي بهذه القصيدة وتفاعله معها إلى تلاقي الشاعرين في جوانب مهمة على الصعيد الشخصي، وعلى صعيد الأحداث التي واجهت كلا منهما. لقد كان كلا الشاعرين أميرا وفارسا وشاعرا، كما أن الاثنين قد تعرض الأسر والنفي والغربة. فضلا عن ذلك يتخذ مطلع كل من القصيدتين أهمية مميزة عن الأبيات الأخرى للقصيدة.
