Performance Analysis of a Novel Seismic Data Acquisition System to Measure Peak Particle Velocity and Source Distance
Authors: Manalu M K , Patrialova S N , Radhy A , Prahastudhi S 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
This paper presents a performance analysis of a novel development of multistations seismic data acquisition system called MSTGS. This system involves 4.5 Hz triaxial geophone sensors — Vertical (Z), East-West (E), and North-South (N) — and a user-friendly graphical user interface (GUI) for monitoring peak particle velocity (PPV) in the ground and estimating the distance of a vibration source. The experiment was conducted by employing an active artificial vibration source at a certain location by assuming a homogeneous medium with the specific p-s waves velocity (0.2471 m/s). The distance of the vibration source was varying up to 15 meters, and each test was repeated three times. This data acquisition system has already been compared to the commercial high-end 5 Hz geophone instrument. Since this research only analyses parameters in the time domain, therefore neglecting the frequency domain. PPV was determined by the sum vector of peak amplitude in each component. Meanwhile, the distance between source and receiver was calculated by subtracting p-wave and s-wave first break arrival time. Results showed a PPV measurement accuracy of 94.88% at Station 1 and 95.2% at Station 2, with increased accuracy using the Multi-Station Triaxial Geophone of 97.24%. The accuracy in measuring the distance of the vibration source was 98.59%. Sensors at each station were able to measure PPV values with delay times of 71 ms (Z sensor), 83 ms (E sensor), and 67 ms (N sensor), which met the ITU-T standards. The data indicated a correlation between the vibration source distance and PPV values, with a correlation coefficient (R2) of 0.8535 at Station 1 and 0.8213 at Station 2. These findings validate the novel developed instrument’s capability, offering a reliable alternative to existing commercial solutions. This research contributes to the field of geophysical engineering by providing a cost-effective and accurate method for monitoring ground vibrations, which is crucial for various applications including seismic studies and infrastructure monitoring.
Artificial Lighting System for Improving Mood in House Environment
Authors: Reforma Adira Damai , Wonorahardjo Surjamanto 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
The use of artificial light had positive and negative impact on humans. Improper use of artificial light can disrupt mood regulation. On the other hand, light also can be used to treat mood disorder. Some studies suggest that daylight quality in Indonesian settlements, especially in low-cost settlements did not meet the minimum required standard. Both the use of excessive light and lack of daylight exposure can cause mood problems. The advancement of lighting technology creates an opportunity to adjust artificial lighting to suit better for human needs. This paper aims to discuss the possible and effective strategies to improve occupant mood in home by studying the effect of CCT and illuminance level using desk study method. Internet search was used to search relevant articles using defined keywords. The literature found then filtered based on determined criteria for further review. Based on the literature that has been found, it is shown that CCT and illuminance level can be used to improve mood and other correlated conditions. Also, it is important to set artificial lighting according to activity and individual preference.
Initial atmospheric constraints limit the sub-seasonal prediction skill of the South China Sea Summer Monsoon onset

Published: February 2025

Abstract
The onset time of the South China Sea summer monsoon (SCSSM) is widely recognized as being closely related to the distribution of summer rainfall belts in East Asia. This study examines the sub-seasonal prediction bias of SCSSM onset and investigates the associated oceanic and atmospheric processes using the hindcasts from the ECMWF sub-seasonal-to-seasonal (S2S) forecasting system. The system can accurately predict the onset time two pentads in advance. As the lead time increases, the predicted monsoon onset time tends to be later than the observations. When the forecast lead time exceeds 15 days, the inaccuracies in the northward propagation of tropical convection result in the absence of initial atmospheric constraints. This lack of initial constraints, along with their influence on the boundary forcing over the Bay of Bengal, may lead to a late onset bias of the SCSSM in this forecasting system.
The Significance of Employment
Authors: Parr Tom 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
The aim of this chapter is to shed light on various disputes about the significance of employment, and then, using the empowerment model, to draw out some of the implications of these commitments for labour market policymaking, particularly in a world of artificial intelligence. The analysis starts with an account of the value of employment, which serves as a foundation on which to defend policies whose purpose is to eliminate involuntary unemployment. It then defends this line of reasoning against critics who contend that this view fetishizes work. The chapter includes a more technical discussion of whether it’s wrong for governments to promote employment since doing so unfairly penalizes those who’ve no desire to be employed, and concludes with a discussion of the appeal of basic income.
Conclusion
Authors: Parr Tom 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
This brief chapter highlights some of the themes of the book, especially those relating to automation, artificial intelligence, and the future of work. It cautions against sensationalist narratives relating to these issues, and instead emphasizes the need for empirically informed philosophical reflection to guide the political decisions that shape the labour market. It contends that technology is a double-edged sword that brings both threats and opportunities, affecting individuals’ lives in myriad ways. It concludes with some advice for governments, who must be prepared to make courageous choices to protect workers’ interests and who cannot leave these matters to the force of the market alone.
‘Simplex Sigillum Veri’ and the Question of the Limits of Language
Authors: Appelqvist Hanne 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
It is a more or less universally accepted view that, in the Tractatus, Wittgenstein rejects the possibility of syntheticity a priori. While Wittgenstein affirms that logic is a priori, the propositions of logic are tautologies and hence analytic. According to Peter Sullivan, this is enough to show that the Tractatus is not a work committed to transcendental idealism. To count as evidence of transcendental idealism in the Tractatus, the a priori limits of language should be synthetic. So while it may look as though the Tractatus introduces a genuine limitation to thought by contrasting it with feeling, for Sullivan such Kantian integration between Wittgenstein’s theoretical and practical philosophy is ‘too much integration to hope for’ (Sullivan 2013, 265). This chapter argues that such integration may be feasible after all. Drawing on Kant’s transcendental aesthetic, the chapter argues that the Tractatus incorporates at least two types of insights that for Kant would count as synthetic a priori. Acknowledging the connection between the two types of insights allows us to see how the theoretical and practical sides of the Tractatus are connected.
Abstract Objects and the Philosophy of Language
Authors: Stirton William 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
The question under consideration is whether anyone has produced a good argument for the existence of natural numbers (taking these to be paradigms of abstract objects) that is based on considerations in the philosophy of language alone (thus excluding arguments that rely on considerations from the philosophy of science or the philosophy of perception). The arguments considered are those of Frege, Wright, Hale, Gaskin, and Linnebo. The conclusion is not that the arguments clearly fail but that they can be accepted only at the cost of undertaking quite strong commitments, for example to the solvability of a certain version of the Julius Caesar Problem. What this version is and why exactly it is important is explained in the chapter.
Mathematics and the Limits of Language
Authors: Jonas Silvia 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
This chapter offers a mathematical perspective on the question of linguistic idealism in order to challenge the claim that for the world to exist it must be expressible. On the basis of three mathematical case studies—modus ponens, the consistency of mathematics, and statistical models of the prime numbers—the chapter draws a distinction between mathematical knowledge and mathematical understanding in order to demonstrate that mathematical understanding is independent of linguistic formulability. It then uses this conclusion to argue that we do have a language–independent access to mathematics, which in turn suggests that the anterior existence of the mathematical cosmos was a prerequisite for the development of mathematical language, just as the anterior existence of the physical world was a prerequisite for the evolution of human language.
Isomorphism and Idealism
Authors: Morris Michael 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
It is a common and perhaps natural view that the world itself has a structure which is isomorphic with the structure of language. One form of linguistic idealism holds that the world has this structure because language has it. This chapter argues that this belief in structural isomorphism derives from a certain view of the way in which the state of the world justifies the use of language. It argues that the view in question involves a commitment to a kind of Given, and is at least parallel to traditional appeals to the notion of the Given in epistemology. But, the chapter argues, it is also found in the most mundane, apparently innocent, conceptions of semantics and our understanding of language. Since the motivation for the view is epistemological, the belief in structural isomorphism is naturally understood in an idealist way. The chapter offers a sketch of a way of understanding how the state of the world justifies the use of language which does not lead either to structural isomorphism or to idealism.
Representation, Alien Languages, and Linguistic Idealism
Authors: Eklund Matti 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
This chapter discusses the possibility of alien languages, and the implications of that issue for linguistic idealism, specifically as linguistic idealism comes up in some of Richard Gaskin’s writings. Alien languages are here languages that are different from familiar ones semantically, in a structural way, and through having added elements. The aim is to shed light on linguistic idealism by considering that kind of possibility. Although the chapter does not mount a full defence of alien languages, it does respond to some objections to the idea. The chapter discusses how the possibility of alien languages problematizes claims that Gaskin makes. Along the way it seeks more clarity on what linguistic idealism and some of the arguments for that view should be taken to be.
Microcontact and syntactic theory
Authors: D’Alessandro Roberta , Andriani Luigi , Frasson Alberto , Pinto Manuela , Sorgini Luana , Terenghi Silvia 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
This first chapter presents an overview of the microcontact methodology and what is needed to compare as well as distinguish change in contact from change in diachrony, also known as endogenous change. After an outline of the methodology, the chapter shares findings from the project Microcontact. Language variation and change from the Italian heritage perspective, carried out at Utrecht University between 2017 and 2022. This project focused on various syntactic phenomena, encompassing both purely grammatical aspects and those situated at the intersection of grammar and discourse. In so doing, the chapter highlights the insights into grammatical theory that the microcontact methodology provides. Section 1.4 presents data from several phenomena, in contact and in diachrony: demonstratives, auxiliary selection, differential object marking, subject clitics, and null subjects. Section 1.5 highlights the main theoretical contributions of each of the four case studies. Section 1.6 concludes the chapter.
Empowering Workers in an Age of Automation
Authors: Parr Tom 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
There’s a great deal of anxiety about the current state of the labour market, and especially the employment opportunities available to members of the working-class. The post-war growth in wages has stagnated and, in some places, reversed. More workers than ever are employed on precarious contracts, working shifts on demand and with no guarantee of future employment. Technology has enabled greater surveillance and monitoring of staff, in the office and at home, during work hours and outside of them. And though the amount of time that individuals spend at work has declined in recent decades, progress on this front has been dishearteningly slow. In this constellation of factors, some commentators see the beginnings of a social crisis. Others believe that we’re already in the depths of one. Given this social and economic context, it’s hardly surprising that scholars are increasingly concerned with the appropriate design and regulation of labour markets. Governments and policymakers require empirically- and theoretically-informed guidance to assess the appeal of competing arrangements, as well as to determine the justifiability of particular policy proposals. The aim of Part I of this book is to contribute to these discussions by presenting and defending a distinctive way of theorizing about justice in the labour market, called the empowerment model. The aim of Part II is to draw on the empowerment model to shed light on ongoing disputes about unemployment, the four day work week, the gender earnings gap, working from home, and education and training.
Literary Careers
Authors: Eisaman Maus Katharine 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
This chapter discusses the various practical ways writers in the period before the onset of civil war could support themselves. Many writers were amateurs; in other words, they were not dependent upon the income from their writing, but might work primarily as courtiers, lawyers, scholars, or clergymen. A few, however, were professional writers—a new option in the early seventeenth century—that is, people who managed to wrest a living from writing alone. There were two ways of doing so: one could write for the commercial theatre, or one could seek various forms of literary patronage. Each of these options presents different constraints and opportunities. During the 1640s and 1650s, when the theatres were shut down and many traditional forms of patronage were in abeyance, the literary world was forced to reconfigure itself.
Thinking About Genre in Seventeenth-Century England
Authors: Eisaman Maus Katharine 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Early modern writers tend to organize their thinking about literature not in terms of historical period, but in terms of generic ‘kinds’. Genres provide rough templates for the aims of writers and for the expectation of audiences. Taken together, the various genres deal with the multifarious forms of human experience and endeavour: tragedy with the fall of princes and nobles; epic with the adventures of heroes; comedy with the interactions of ordinary people, often in urban settings; pastoral with the lives of shepherds. Genre thus works as a filtering device, focusing on some phenomena and implicitly excluding others. Early seventeenth century writing is distinguished by a marked degree of generic innovation, as writers experiment with such newly fashionable ‘kinds’ as satiric city comedy, epigram, country house poem, tragicomedy, essay, and ‘character.’ The remainder of this volume will discuss some of the genres that are most important in the literature of the early seventeenth century.
On Valuing
Authors: Mitchell-Yellin Benjamin 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
We conceive of ourselves as valuing creatures, and this self-conception features prominently in a variety of philosophical literatures. Yet some argue that rival notions, such as caring, are more central to understanding human agency, well-being, and the sources of normativity for us. This chapter argues that both fans and detractors of valuing would benefit from an improved account of the attitude, one that takes valuing to include more than just evaluative belief and that interprets all relevant elements, including the belief that the valued object is good, in disositional terms. This fully dispositional account of valuing attempts to incorporate the whole self and remain sensitive to our imperfections.
The Virtues of Transparent Akrasia?
Authors: Flynn Andrew McKay 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
This chapter articulates an overlooked phenomenon dubbed “transparent” akrasia—roughly having one’s akrasia present to mind throughout one’s action—and argues for its significance. It begins by showing how the phenomenon is different from much-discussed cases of “lucid” or “clear-eyed” akrasia. Then it situates the phenomenon in the context of recent work questioning the irrationality of akrasia. It gives a novel account of what unites superficially different and conflicting work on this topic: the insight that akrasia can be good because it is explained by good motives. However, it also argues that such work has myopically focused on akrasia as a synchronic phenomenon and thus missed aspects of good motivation that only appear diachronically—like transparency. This claim motivates an account of the significance of transparent akrasia, which the chapter argues is, at least in important cases, the manifestation of a desire to take oneself and one’s failures seriously. The chapter concludes by showing how this account complicates and enriches our understanding of familiar cases of purportedly “good” akrasia.
Culpability for Moral Ignorance
Authors: Suni Ninni 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
This chapter argues that moral ignorance implies lack of care of morally relevant considerations as predicted by quality-of-will theories of responsibility, and thus moral ignorance, as opposed to circumstantial ignorance, does not excuse wrongdoing. A new attributionist framework for responsibility for attitudes is presented and supplemented with empirical studies on selective attention to explain the connection between caring and belief formation. The framework is then used to shed light on putative counterexamples to culpable moral ignorance by introducing attentional priority structures that help to distinguish between genuine lack of care as a moral mistake, and nonculpable carelessness that undermines something the agent actually cares about. The chapter ends with a definition of adequate caring and a response to the objection from moral heroism.
COME: contrastive mapping learning for spatial reconstruction of scRNA-seq data
Authors: Wei Xindian , Chen Tianyi , Wang Xibiao , Shen Wenjun , Liu Cheng , Wu Si , Wong Hau-San 
Published: February 2025

Abstract

Motivation
Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) enables high-throughput transcriptomic profiling at single-cell resolution. The inherent spatial location is crucial for understanding how single cells orchestrate multicellular functions and drive diseases. However, spatial information is often lost during tissue dissociation. Spatial transcriptomic (ST) technologies can provide precise spatial gene expression atlas, while their practicality is constrained by the number of genes they can assay or the associated costs at a larger scale and the fine-grained cell type annotation. By transferring knowledge between scRNA-seq and spatial transcriptomics data through cell correspondence learning, it is possible to recover the spatial properties inherent in scRNA-seq datasets.

Results
In this study, we introduce COME, a COntrastive Mapping lEarning approach that learns mapping between ST and scRNA-seq data to recover the spatial information of scRNA-seq data. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the proposed COME method effectively captures precise cell-spot relationships and outperforms previous methods in recovering spatial location for scRNA-seq data. More importantly, our method is capable of precisely identifying biologically meaningful information within the data, such as the spatial structure of missing genes, spatial hierarchical patterns, and the cell-type compositions for each spot. These results indicate that the proposed COME method can help to understand the heterogeneity and activities among cells within tissue environments.

Compatibility of procreation, pregnancy, and early parenthood in female and male surgeons during surgical training in Switzerland: national survey study
Authors: Ferreirinha Joana , Weber Markus , Attigah Nicolas , Faes Seraina 
Published: February 2025

Abstract

Background
Lengthy training and stressful work schedules can cause surgeons to renounce part-time work and delay pregnancy. The aim of this survey study was to evaluate constraints of part-time work, procreation, pregnancy, and early parenthood among young surgeons in Switzerland.

Methods
An anonymous survey on different aspects of private life and surgical training was distributed to young board-certified general surgeons in Switzerland.

Results
Out of the 680 surveys sent, a total of 375 were completed (response rate of 55.1%), with 308 included for further analysis (157 from female participants and 151 from male participants). There was no difference between male and female participants in the time required for board and sub-specialty certification. Female participants had a higher rate (59 of 157 (37.6%) versus 28 of 151 (18.5%), P &lt; 0.001) and longer duration (mean(s.d.) of 5.5(4.0) versus 1.8(1.1) years, P &lt; 0.001) of part-time employment. Female participants less frequently had children (70 of 157 (44.6%) versus 106 of 151 (70.2%), P &lt; 0.001). They were older (median age of 35 (interquartile range 33–37.5) years) than male participants (median age of 33.5 (interquartile range 31.75–35) years) (P &lt; 0.001) and female partners of male participants (median age of 32 (interquartile range 30–33) years) (P &lt; 0.001) at first childbirth. Female participants more frequently delayed pregnancy due to training (94 of 127 (74.0%) versus 28 of 138 (20.3%), P &lt; 0.001) and had higher rates of infertility (16 of 70 (23%) versus 11 of 106 (10.4%), P = 0.032) and use of assisted reproductive technology (18 of 127 (14.2%) versus 6 of 138 (4.3%), P = 0.009). Female participants more frequently perceived their gender as a negative career influence (105 of 157 (66.9%) versus 9 of 151 (6.0%), P &lt; 0.001).

Conclusion
Combining procreation, pregnancy, and early parenthood with surgical training is challenging for young surgeons in Switzerland. Providing equal opportunities for all genders and promoting changes in working conditions will be necessary to ensure optimal surgical training for future generations.
