Representation Learning of Biological Concepts: A Systematic Review
Authors: Yang Yuntao , Zuo Xu , Das Avisha , Xu Hua , Zheng Wenjin 
Published: June 2023

Objective:
Representation learning in the context of biological concepts involves acquiring
their numerical representations through various sources of biological information, such as sequences,
interactions, and literature. This study has conducted a comprehensive systematic review by analyzing
both quantitative and qualitative data to provide an overview of this field.

Methods:
Our systematic review involved searching for articles on the representation learning of biological
concepts in PubMed and EMBASE databases. Among the 507 articles published between 2015
and 2022, we carefully screened and selected 65 papers for inclusion. We then developed a structured
workflow that involved identifying relevant biological concepts and data types, reviewing various representation
learning techniques, and evaluating downstream applications for assessing the quality of the
learned representations.

Results:
The primary focus of this review was on the development of numerical representations for
gene/DNA/RNA entities. We have found Word2Vec to be the most commonly used method for biological
representation learning. Moreover, several studies are increasingly utilizing state-of-the-art large
language models to learn numerical representations of biological concepts. We also observed that representations
learned from specific sources were typically used for single downstream applications that
were relevant to the source.

Conclusion:
Existing methods for biological representation learning are primarily focused on learning
representations from a single data type, with the output being fed into predictive models for downstream
applications. Although there have been some studies that have explored the use of multiple data types to
improve the performance of learned representations, such research is still relatively scarce. In this systematic
review, we have provided a summary of the data types, models, and downstream applications
used in this task.

Published: June 2023

Background
Multiple digital data sources can capture moment-to-moment information to advance a robust understanding of opioid use disorder (OUD) behavior, ultimately creating a digital phenotype for each patient. This information can lead to individualized interventions to improve treatment for OUD.

Objective
The aim is to examine patient engagement with multiple digital phenotyping methods among patients receiving buprenorphine medication for OUD.

Methods
The study enrolled 65 patients receiving buprenorphine for OUD between June 2020 and January 2021 from 4 addiction medicine programs in an integrated health care delivery system in Northern California. Ecological momentary assessment (EMA), sensor data, and social media data were collected by smartphone, smartwatch, and social media platforms over a 12-week period. Primary engagement outcomes were meeting measures of minimum phone carry (≥8 hours per day) and watch wear (≥18 hours per day) criteria, EMA response rates, social media consent rate, and data sparsity. Descriptive analyses, bivariate, and trend tests were performed.

Results
The participants’ average age was 37 years, 47% of them were female, and 71% of them were White. On average, participants met phone carrying criteria on 94% of study days, met watch wearing criteria on 74% of days, and wore the watch to sleep on 77% of days. The mean EMA response rate was 70%, declining from 83% to 56% from week 1 to week 12. Among participants with social media accounts, 88% of them consented to providing data; of them, 55% of Facebook, 54% of Instagram, and 57% of Twitter participants provided data. The amount of social media data available varied widely across participants. No differences by age, sex, race, or ethnicity were observed for any outcomes.

Conclusions
To our knowledge, this is the first study to capture these 3 digital data sources in this clinical population. Our findings demonstrate that patients receiving buprenorphine treatment for OUD had generally high engagement with multiple digital phenotyping data sources, but this was more limited for the social media data.

Ориентализм в геополитических представлениях военных и дипломатических элит Российской империи (на материалах обсуждения «армянского вопроса» в конце XIX – начале XX в.)
Authors:   North-Caucasus Federal University (1, Pushkin St., 355017 Stavropol, Russian Federation), Ambartsumyan Karine R. 
Published: June 2023

Introduction. Edward W. Said’s Orientalism: Western Conceptions of the Orient introduced the category ‘Orientalism’ into scientific and political discourse. So, the article focuses on the Armenian question that became a remarkable part of the Eastern question at the turn of the 20th century — to illustrate features of ‘Russian Orientalism’. The decline of the Ottoman Porte, difficulties faced by ethnic Armenians in Turkey, and the political unrest among Armenians of the Caucasus resulted in that the Russian military and diplomats were paying close attention to those events, which was reflected in related reports. Materials and methods. The published sources examined are those authored by N. Ivanov, A. Nelidov, D. Putyata, P. Tomilov, I. Vorontsov-Dashkov, R. Termen. The archival documents involved (State Archive of Russian Federation) are A. Nelidov’s reports of 1882 and 1896, both addressed to V. Lamsdorf. The theoretical basis is shaped by concepts of Orientalism, Occidentalism, and critical geopolitics, the latter viewing geopolitical ideas of elites as an independent phenomenon referred to as ‘high geopolitics’. Results. After the Treaty of Berlin (1878) the Armenian question became a new domain for interaction between the great powers. The analysis conducted herein confirms that ‘Russian Orientalism’ — in geopolitical ideas of the elites — had an anti-Western shade. Paradoxically, in Eastern contexts Russian imperial elites were positioning themselves as representatives of European civilization. However, when it came to defend national interests, their reasoning would obtain anti-Western tones. Occidentalism presupposes a unification of the Western world, which, for example, can be observed in the reports of Ya. Lundekvist and A. Nelidov. The views and shades of Orientalism were determined by practical job tasks. For instance, Governor-General I. Vorontsov-Dashkov was rather a bearer of ‘internal Orientalism’ suggesting a patronizing concern for the Caucasian Armenians. Therefore, there were certain differences in attitudes of capital-based executives and those articulated by ones in the colonized periphery of the Empire. Conclusions. So, the study concludes as follows. Firstly, how the elites tended to perceive the essence of the Armenian question and its Turkish contexts proves the legitimacy of the category ‘Russian Orientalism’ — directed both outside and inside — the latter covering the Caucasus with a certain portion of Armenian population. Secondly, features of Orientalism in geopolitical representations of Russian elites were determined by practical tasks of their service. Thirdly, ‘Russian Orientalism’ is more heterogeneous and its aspects outnumber those presented in Edward W. Said’s study.

Published: June 2023

El análisis de datos por categorías en una investigación cualitativa requiere tres fases interrelacionadas: reducción de datos, análisis descriptivo y la interpretación. La reducción permite resumir los datos recogidos y facilitar su posterior entendimiento. Para ello, se requiere categorizar, codificar, registrar y tabular. En tal sentido, el objetivo de este estudio es describir el proceso seguido para cumplir con estos aspectos en el desarrollo de un estudio de caso en las ciencias administrativas y gerenciales. Para ejemplificar la aplicación de la categorización se utiliza una investigación sobre capacidades dinámicas en una empresa del sector de bebidas alcohólicas en Venezuela. No se pretende explicar los resultados de la investigación, si no exponer el proceso seguido en la reducción de datos de un análisis cualitativo por categorías. Se mostró la elaboración de un plan de códigos para realizar el registro en un esquema de codificación por categorías. Además, se confeccionó la tabulación con el fin de condensar, organizar y evidenciar las carac terísticas y relaciones de la información proporcionada por los informantes claves. Se concluye que la reducción de datos para el análisis cualitativo por categorías requiere definir categorías y subcategorías para la investigación; elaborar un plan de códigos; transcribir las entrevistas y asignar números de líneas a cada copia; y elaborar matrices descriptivas por cada subcategoría.

The Development of Financial Obligation Assistance in Inter-State Relations Regarding Environmental Protection: a Review of The Paris Agreement 2015
Authors: Zuhaida Azka , Alkazahfa Asry M. 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
The increasing global environmental issues affect how countries view international environmental policy. This insists countries carry out joint international responsibility on environmental law issues which later developed as Common but Differentiated Responsibility and Respective Capabilities principle (Principle of CDR-RC). The implementation of the principle should be seen as the aspect of financial assistance from developed countries to developing countries in the Paris Agreement 2015. This research aims to determine the development of the relation-interaction of the financial assistance between developed countries and developing countries in the context of international environmental law, especially regarding climate change issues as well as the obligation and financial mechanism in the Paris Agreement 2015. The result shows a development of universal responsibility into a shared international responsibility in overcoming climate change issues. Several different principles in each international instrument affect relation-interaction and financial assistance. Furthermore, the financial assistance is regulated in detail in Article 9 of the Paris Agreement 2015 with financial mechanisms referred to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).
Keywords: financial assistance, developed and developing countries, Paris Agreement 2015
Effects of complex-descending versus traditional resistance training on physical fitness abilities of female team sports athletes
Authors: Rathi Aparna , Sharma Deepak , Thapa Rohit K. 
Published: June 2023

Abstract

Study aim: The study compared the effects of six weeks of complex-descending training (CDT), traditional resistance training (RT), and sport-specific training (i.e., active control group [CG]) on measures of physical fitness.

Material and methods: Thirty-one female team sport athletes were randomly assigned to either the CDT group (n = 11), the RT group (n = 10), or the CG (n = 10), and were assessed before and after intervention for linear sprint (10 m and 30 m), change of direction sprint (CODS), standing long jump (SLJ), running based anerobic sprint test (peak power, average power), resting heart rate, Cooper 12-min run test, and body fat percentage.

Results: ANCOVA with baseline scores as covariates revealed significant between-group differences for 10 m and 30 m linear sprint, CODS, SLJ, and Cooper 12-min run test after the intervention. The further post-hoc tests revealed significant differences between CDT and CG in 10 m and 30 m sprints, CODS and SLJ, with results favoring CDT, and between RT and CG in 10 m linear sprint and Cooper 12-min run test, with results favoring RT. However, no significant differences were observed between CDT and RT in any dependent variable.

Conclusion: CDT is effective in improving 10 m and 30 m linear sprints, CODS, and SLJ compared to CG, and RT is effective in improving 10 m sprint and Cooper 12-min run test compared to CG. Therefore, supplementing sport-specific training with either CDT or RT may offer additional benefits in improving specific physical fitness abilities of female team-sport athletes.
Assessment and representation of Urban Trees Ecosystem Services: a case study in Pryzamkovyi park
Authors: Bidolakh Dmytro , Lakyda Petro , Myroniuk Viktor , Hayda Yuriy , Pidkhovna Svitlana 
Published: June 2023

Abstract

The research was aimed at verification of the possibility and expediency of applying i-Tree Eco tools in order to assess the value of ecosystem trees and bushes by the example of one of the parks in Ukraine and representation of the obtained information on an interactive map. For this purpose, the inventory of 228 urban trees in Pryzamkovyi park was conducted and the possibility of its adjustment to the conditions in Ukraine was assessed. The obtained information was analysed and visualised, and the advantages and disadvantages of this process were determined. The scope of the provided ecosystem services for park spaces was specified and it was determined that urban trees in Pryzamkovyi park have a €12.38 million replacement value and the average indicator of annual usefulness of ecosystem services provided by one tree plant or one bush plant in the park is equal to €15.75 per year, according to i-Tree Eco assessment.
In order to improve the process of obtaining, processing and visualising materials, an orthophotomap based on unmanned aerial vehicle survey materials was applied. It allowed increasing the accuracy and improving the visualisation of the geolocation of trees and bushes. In order to familiarise a greater number of users with this information, electronic maps of vegetation that display the location of trees and bushes and their ecosystem services, both in quantity and monetary terms, were offered. The peculiarity and the scientific novelty of the approaches to solving the assigned task is the improvement of the process of informing the interested parties about the ecosystem services of a specific tree in the park and green plantations in the park as a whole. The suggested approaches to assessing the value of urban trees and their ecosystem services give ground to emphasise the value of these plants for urban ecosystems, to substantiate the expediency of implementing environmental measures as well as the need to increase the funding of these measures as a compensation for the services provided by trees and plants. At the same time, it is worth mentioning the expediency of conducting further research on this subject and the related issues, which requires follow-up studying.
A Policy Perspective on Regulating Disinformation in Romania during the Covid-19 Pandemic
Authors: Radu Bianca Veronica 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
Romania is one of the countries that adopted temporary sanctions against disinformation during the state of emergency, which lasted between March 16 and May 14, 2020. The scope of this paper is to analyze the decisions adopted by the National Authority for Administration and Regulation of Communications, which was the institution responsible for regulating the spread of fake news on the internet. We analyzed the motivation to block access to false information and the type of news classified as disinformation. In addition, we analyzed decisions adopted by the National Council of Audio‐visual starting with the end of February 2020, both in terms of recommendations and the sanctions imposed on audio‐visual channels of communication, as well as the decisions to sanction noncompliance with the correct information of the audience. The findings show a limited effect in containing disinformation. Access to a limited number of websites was blocked and after the state of emergency was lifted, access was granted again. Removing access to a website did not stop the authors from continuing their activity by opening a new website. The lack of a definition of false information allowed discretion power in blocking access to news containing information that later proved to be correct. The activity of audio‐visual channels was regulated instead through soft legislation, such as recommendations and instructions, as well as through sanctions. Overall the analysis shows temporary and limited effects of the legislation sanctioning disinformation in Romania.
Social Media Use in Central and Eastern European Cities: Defining Local Government-Citizen Relationships through Phases
Authors: Zumofen Raphaël , Mabillard Vincent , Pasquier Martial 
Published: June 2023

AbstractResearch has shown the potential of social media to disseminate important information as well as transform citizen engagement with government. However, implementation proves difficult, especially in public sector organizations. The success, impact and performance of these new forms of networked interactions are yet to be fully explored, especially at the local level. Many municipalities are experimenting with social media use, but few actively measure their performance on these platforms and their interactions with users. Different frameworks have been proposed to describe government communication types and activity on social media. They are addressed here through three phases that refer to forms of government‐citizen communication on social media. The original assessment method developed here contributes to the existing literature and provides guidance to practitioners. Empirically, our research relies on a database of cities that have between 100,000 and 500,000 inhabitants in European Union member states located in Central and Eastern Europe. It provides social media metrics for these cities (N=82 and compares various indicators on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. This contributes to a better assessment ofhow social media platforms are used by local governments in the region.
Phenomenology and Human Rights
Authors: de la Cadena Nathalie Barbosa 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
In this article, I present the phenomenological tradition as a new grounding for human rights as universal rights. The hypothesis defended is to conciliate Husserl’s phenomenological method, and Reinach’s a priori law in order to offer a new grounding to human rights. Combining Husserl and Reinach’s ideas, I propose to expand the comprehension of a priori. It would be present as eidos of each object, and I name it as material a priori; it also be present in the eidetic relations and I name it as formal a priori. Yet the object would have an essence, a necessary content, a material a priori, and necessary states of affairs, necessary relations and connections, a formal a priori. Reinach, in The A priori Foundations of the Civil Law, describes eidetic relations, such as the relation between promise, claim, and obligation. I propose three eidetic universalities to ground law; these are what I will call human rights. I also face a few difficulties presented by DuBois and De Vecchi derived from the amoral approach of a priori laws. Then, I highlight the difference between this proposition and Albert’s. Finally, I defend the proposition that a priori laws are beyond natural and positive laws.
