Classification by Attention: Scene Graph Classification with Prior Knowledge
Authors: Sharifzadeh Sahand , Moayed Baharlou Sina , Tresp Volker 
Published: September 2022

A major challenge in scene graph classification is that the appearance of objects and relations can be significantly different from one image to another. Previous works have addressed this by relational reasoning over all objects in an image or incorporating prior knowledge into classification. Unlike previous works, we do not consider separate models for perception and prior knowledge. Instead, we take a multi-task learning approach by introducing schema representations and implementing the classification as an attention layer between image-based representations and the schemata. This allows for the prior knowledge to emerge and propagate within the perception model. By enforcing the model also to represent the prior, we achieve a strong inductive bias. We show that our model can accurately generate commonsense knowledge and that the iterative injection of this knowledge to scene representations, as a top-down mechanism, leads to significantly higher classification performance. Additionally, our model can be fine-tuned on external knowledge given as triples. When combined with self-supervised learning and with 1% of annotated images only, this gives more than 3% improvement in object classification, 26% in scene graph classification, and 36% in predicate prediction accuracy.
Simultaneous inversion for source spectrum and pathQusingLgwith application to three semipalatinsk explosions
Authors: Xie Jiakang 
Published: September 2022

AbstractA nonlinear method is developed for the simultaneous inversion of Lg source spectra and path Q. The method is applicable to both earthquakes and explosions. The unknowns are the source corner frequency and seismic moment, as well as Lg Q0 and η values (Lg Q at 1 Hz and its power-law frequency dependence) along paths to the recording stations. The inverse algorithm determines different Q0 and η values for each of the several paths, it is event-based, and it is suitable for real-time processing. The algorithm is further characterized by an exhaustive, nonlinear search for source parameters and linear searches for Q0 and η values. The search process is implemented in successive, increasingly refined steps, designed to accelerate the computation. With these characteristics, the inverse algorithm requires neither a starting model, nor a priori information on the source of Q; it thus avoids convergence to local minima, and is fast enough to be mini-computer based.The method is applied to three underground nuclear explosions in eastern Kazakhstan. The resulting seismic moment (M0) and corner frequency (fc) for the largest (JVE) event are 1.3 (±0.1) × 1023 dyne-cm and 0.56 (±0.02) Hz, respectively. These values are consistent with previous estimates using other methods and phases, as well as the source scaling relationships developed for NTS explosions. Based on the same scaling relationships, the M0 values obtained for the smaller events in this study suggest seismic yields that are consistent, within reasonable uncertainties, with those predicted by using the ISC mb values and an mb-yield scaling relationship. The path-averaged apparent Q0 and η values agree with previous estimates in roughly the same area, but the values from individual paths can vary significantly. The apparent Q0 values are higher than 750 in two northeasterly directions, and are between 475 and 591 in three other directions. These values correlate with the regional tectonic features. These values also agree, within the uncertainties, with estimates based on a tomographic Lg coda Q0 map by Xie and Mitchell (1991).
Sobre la realidad de las matemáticas
Authors: Casanova Carlos 
Published: September 2022

El artículo trata sobre el objeto de las matemáticas, sobre si éste existe en la realidad o no. El artículo adopta una perspectiva intemporal y, por ello, incoa un diálogo entre físicos o matemáticos contemporáneos y algunas de las reflexiones clásicas sobre el tema. Entre estas últimas, incluye la platónica, la aristotélica, la empirista y la kantiana. Por otra parte, trae a colación la distinción clásica entre via inventionis y via demonstrationis en orden a distinguir las verdades matemáticas, los principios en que ellas pueden resolverse y la forma concreta en que esos principios pueden ser relacionados para construir una demostración. Esto puede arrojar luces sobre por qué las verdades matemáticas pueden ser percibidas por los matemáticos como eternas, aunque los modos de demostrarlas o los contextos puedan ampliarse o variar.---“On Mathematics’ Reality”. The paper deals with the object of mathematics, and tries to show if it is real or not. It is written from an intended timeless point of view, and because of that it opens a dialogue between contemporary physicists or mathemat ics and classic ref lect ion on the mat ter. Among those reflections, it embraces the Platonic, Aristotelian, empiricist and Kantian. Moreover, it considers the classic distinction between via inventionis and via demonstrationis, in order to distinguish between mathematical truths, the principles or axioms in which they can be resolved and the concrete ways in which those principles can be interwoven for the construction of a demonstration. This can enlighten the problem of why mathematical truths are perceived by mathematicians as eternal, while the ways through which or the contexts in which they are demonstrated can be amplified or modified.
Davidson, verdad y correspondencia
Authors: Caorsi Carlos 
Published: September 2022

En este artículo el autor se propone analizar la posición de Davidson respecto de la verdad como correspondencia a lo largo de su obra. Pueden establecerse dos períodos en su obra, un primero que va desde sus trabajos iniciales hasta sus “Afterthoughts” de 1987 y un segundo que va desde esa fecha hasta sus últimos trabajos. Lo que caracteriza a esos períodos es que durante el primero Davidson se proclama correspondentista, en el segundo se arrepiente de haber adoptado esa denominación, a lo cual caracteriza como un error terminológico. La intención del autor aquí es considerar cuál puede haber sido la razón para dicho error terminológico y cuánto de la aceptación de algo como la correspondencia persiste en los trabajos posteriores de Davidson. Se propone para ello establecer una distinción entre dos modos en que debe entenderse la correspondencia, que se encuentran emparentados con dos modos de entender el análisis filosófico y con lo que Wright llama el debate tradicionalacerca de la verdad, y el nuevo giro que el mismo debería tomar.
Cultura y arte, una correspondencia en proceso. El ideal del arte en Hegel, correciones a una interpretación establecida
Authors: Domínguez Javier 
Published: September 2022

El ideal del arte suele entenderse como un arte ejemplar que se destaca en una historia del arte de concepción formalista, o como el arte que responde a la concepción programática de una estética normativa. La concepción de Hegel es distinta; en ella no hay la exigencia en un sentido enfático de condiciones ideales, ni del arte ni para el arte, sino que de acuerdo con su concepción del ideal, que no es otra cosa que la idea o lo verdadero en la historia y sus realidades, el ideal del arte es el arte mismo cumpliendo esta tarea de realización. Ello lo consigue en el medio de la intuición y en relación con la cultura de la sensibilidad, cuyas demandas para el arte se transforman de acuerdo con la mentalidad que le va dando el sello a la cultura en general. Acorde con esta idea, el esfuerzo del arte no consiste tanto en sensibilizar la idea, cuanto en elevar lo sensible a apariencia. Esta concepción queda ejempliﬁ cada en la forma cómo Hegel aborda la pintura en sus Lecciones. El artículo conlleva una crítica a la interpretación usual de Hegel como clasicista, e intenta mostrar el potencial de su teoría para la actualidad.
La noción de “hybris” en el Critias de Platón
Authors: Picón Casas Javier 
Published: September 2022

Se justifican tres tesis. Primera, el sentido mítico-religioso tradicional de la justicia como castigo de la [palabra en griego] quedó desacreditado durante la Guerra del Peloponeso, como bien lo muestra Tucídides. Segunda, en tiempos de Aristóteles, tal sentido ya habría desaparecido en favor de un nuevo paradigma basado en el concepto de [palabra en griego]. Tercera, la obra de Platón constituye uno de los últimos intentosde recuperar ese sentido mítico-religioso tradicional tratando de interpretar la Guerra del Peloponeso a través del mecanismo del castigo de la [palabra en griego] .---“The notion of ‘hybris’ in Plato’s Critias”. The following theses are basically justified: (1) the traditional mythical-religious sense of justice as punishment of the [greek word] was discredited during the Peloponnesian War, as Thucydide shows. (2) In times of Aristotle such a sense had already disappeared in favour of a new paradigm based on the concept of [greek word]. (3) Plato’s work constitutes one of the last attempts to recover the traditional mythical-religious sense trying to interpret the Peloponnesian War through the mechanism of punishment of the [greek word].
De regreso a la fuente del platonismo en la filosofía de las matemáticas: la crítica de Aristóteles a los números eidéticos
Authors: Hopkins Burt 
Published: September 2022

De acuerdo con la así llamada concepción platonista de la naturaleza de las entidades matemáticas, las afirmaciones matemáticas son análogas a las afirmaciones acerca de objetos físicos reales y sus relaciones, con la diferencia decisiva de que las entidades matemáticas no son ni físicas ni espacio temporalmente individuales, y, por tanto, no son percibidas sensorialmente. El platonismo matemático es, por lo tanto, de la misma índole que el platonismo en general, el cual postula la tesis de un mundo ideal de entidades –eídē– que a la vez están separadas (chōristón) y son el fundamento cognitivo y ontológico del mundo real de cosas físicas que poseen propiedades espacio-temporales. Mientras que la no-identidad entre la concepción platonista de las entidades matemáticas y el platonismo del Platón “histórico” es frecuentemente reconocida tácita o explícitamente tanto por sus defensores como por sus críticos, su conexión conla crítica del Aristóteles “histórico” a la filosofía de Platón frecuentemente no es reconocida. Este artículo llama la atención sobre la conexión de Aristóteles con el así llamado platonismo tradicionalmente concebido y reconstruye un aspecto crucial de su crítica a la tesis originaria del chōrismós platónico que se pierde de vista a menos que se reconozca el objetivo verdadero de su crítica, la descripción platónica igualmente originaria de los números eidéticos.---“The Source of Platonism in the Philosophy of Mathematics Revisited: Aristotle’s Critique of Eidetic Numbers”. According to the so-called Platonistic conception of the nature of mathematical entities, mathematical statements are analogous to statements about real physical objects and their relations, with the one decisive difference that mathematical entities are neither physical nor individuated spatio-temporally and, thus, not perceived sensuously. Mathematical Platonism is therefore of a piece with Platonism in general, which posits the thesis of an ideal world of entities –eídē– that are both separate (chōristón) from and the cognitive and ontological foundations of the real world of physical things possessing spatio-temporal properties. While the non-identity of the Platonistic conception of mathematical entities with the Platonism of the “historical” Plato is usually either tacitly or explicitly acknowledged by its defenders and critics alike, its connection with the “historical” Aristotle’s critique of Plato’s philosophy usually goes unacknowledged. This paper both calls attention to Aristotle’s connection with the so-called Platonism traditionally conceived and reconstructs a crucial aspect of his critique of the original Platonic chōrismós thesis, an aspect that is missed unless the true target of this critique, the equally original Platonic account of eidetic numbers, is recognized.
Conciencia del tiempo y experiencias temporales: Un estudio acerca de los límites explicativos de las Lecciones de fenomenología de la conciencia interna del tiempo de Edmund Husserl
Authors: Kretschel Verónica 
Published: September 2022

La fenomenología del tiempo husserliana, tal como es desarrollada en las Lecciones de fenomenología de la conciencia interna del tiempo, presenta dificultades a la hora de explicar ciertas experiencias relativas a la temporalidad. Es el caso de la incompatibilidad entre la rigidez de la modificación retencional y la aproximación efectiva que tiene un sujeto con sus recuerdos. Por una parte, según la explicación de las Lecciones, el oscurecimiento del pasado opera de manera homogénea: cuanto más lejana es una experiencia, menor claridad se atribuye a la retención asociada. Por otra parte, en los hechos, la relación con el pasado no es tan directa. Complementar los estudios de las Leccionescon los de los Análisis sobre las síntesis pasivas permitiría dar cuenta de este tipo de fenómenos temporales.

Published: September 2022

Background and Objective: Vaccine uptake rates during pregnancy remain below target goals due to a convergence of factors. In particular, women of lower socioeconomic means and racial minorities typically have reduced rates of vaccine acceptance. This study aims to identify additional factors contributing to vaccine acceptance within a sample population of women receiving prenatal care in Houston, Texas, United States of America.
Methods: We performed a retrospective cross-sectional analysis of 11,500 pregnant women covered by Medicaid or ChipPerinate who received prenatal care during 2013-2021, assessing influenza (flu) and combined Tetanus, Diphtheria, Acellular Pertussis (TDAP) vaccine acceptance in the patient population. We examined temporal trends in flu and TDAP vaccination rates using Joinpoint regression analyses and evaluated the factors associated with single or concomitant vaccine acceptance during the study period and during the COVID-19 pandemic using adjusted log-binomial regression models.
Results: In our population, 54% of patients received flu vaccination, and 76.1% received TDAP. TDAP rates increased from 2013-2015 but have shown an overall decline since then, as with the flu vaccine. Earlier entry to prenatal care (Prevalence Ratio [PR] 6.32; Confidence Interval [CI] 3.28-12.24) and pregnancy comorbidity such as gestational diabetes (PR 1.32; CI 0.82-2.19) were positively associated with uptake. In contrast, the NH-Black race was negatively associated with vaccine acceptance (PR 0.51 CI; 0.25-0.99). Otherwise, age and history of pre-pregnancy comorbidities were not significant predictors.
Conclusion and Global Health Implications: Within demographic groups identified as at-risk for vaccine refusal, modifying factors further impact vaccine hesitancy. Identifying these elements will guide targeted patient efforts to promote vaccine uptake, both for routine prenatal recommendations and for COVID vaccination.

Authors:   1- Alaa Shafiek Hussien Nomier, Gaweesh Yousria Salah El-Din ,   3- Maha Ramzy Taalab, Sadat Shaimaa Mohamed Abu el 
Published: September 2022

Abstract

Objectives: to evaluate the influence of low-dose cone beam computed tomography (LD-CBCT) and metal artifact reduction (MAR) tool on the assessment of peri-implant dehiscence and fenestration. Methodology: Thirty titanium implants were inserted into bovine rib blocks. Twenty had standardized bone defects (10 with dehiscence and 10 with fenestration), while the remaining 10 were used as control group with no defects. Radiographic examinations held with high‐definition CBCT(HD-CBCT) and LD-CBCT with and without application of MAR tool. Images were assessed by four examiners for the presence or absence of peri-implant defects. The area under the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were calculated for all radiographic protocols.Results: Results: In the absence of MAR tool, there was no difference in AUC and diagnostic values between LD-CBCT and HD-CBCT for detection of both defects. When the MAR tool was applied, the AUC values, sensitivity, and accuracy were higher in HD-CBCT than in LD-CBCT for the detection of both defects, especially for the dehiscence, while specificity remained the same.Conclusion: LD-CBCT can be used in the evaluation of peri-implant dehiscence and fenestration without any decrease in diagnostic accuracy. The application of MAR tool decrease the diagnostic ability of both defects, especially for the detection of dehiscence defects.Clinical relevance: low-dose protocols of CBCT devices can be performed to assess the peri-implant defects with a significant decrease in patient radiation dose. MAR algorithm is not recommended for use in the evaluation of peri-implant defects.
Diversity, Structure and Regeneration Status of Woody Species Along Altitudinal Gradient of Werganbula Forest at Sude District, Arsi Zone, Oromia Region, Ethiopia

Abstract
The study was conducted with objective to assess species composition, structure and regeneration status of woody species along altitudinal gradient of Werganbula forest at Sude District, Arsi Zone, Oromia Region, Ethiopia. The study area was stratified into lower, middle and upper altitudes. Nine transect lines at 500m interval were laid and nine sample plots were established along each transect line with interval of 200m. A total of 81 plots were established in the study area for vegetation data collection. For the collection of tree related data sample plots with 20m x 20m were laid along transect lines while for shrubs data five sub-plots of 5m x 5m were laid down, four at each corner and one at mid of each main plot. To collect saplings and seedlings data ten sample plots with 2m x 2m were laid down at two corners of each sub-plot. A total of 66 woody plants belonging to 43 families and 58 genera were identified from three altitudes of the forests. Fabaceae and Rosaceae were the most dominant families followed by Asteraceae and Araliaceae families. Out of recorded woody species, five (7.58%) were endemic to Ethiopia. The diversity of woody species in lower, middle and upper altitude were 3.35, 3.26 and 3.21 respectively. The overall density of woody plants species in the study area were 1012.35individuals/ha. The majority of the woody species in the study area were distributed in the lower DBH classes. The total basal area of woody species with DBH ≥ 2.5cm was 32.07m2/ha. The density of seedlings was higher than density of sapling and adults and of sapling was greater than adult at three altitudes. This result showed that, there were good regeneration and recruitment potential woody species at three altitudes of the forest. However, the population structure and regeneration status of some woody species in the study area were showed poor regeneration status which need priority conservation in order to ensure the sustainable utilization of the forest resource.
Clinical value of combined preoperative-postoperative neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio in predicting the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma after radiofrequency ablation
Authors: Ni ZiHao , Wu BoLin , Liu Zhao , Wang QiuCheng , Han Xue , Cheng Wen , Guo CunLi 
Published: September 2022

Abstract

Objective: Previous studies have only focused on the prognostic significance of neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) preoperatively or postoperatively; however, the significance of combined preoperative and postoperative NLR (PP-NLR) remains unknown. We investigated the value of preoperative and postoperative NLR and PP-NLR in predicting prognosis after radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
Methods: Patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC; n=108) who had undergone RFA between January 2018 and June 2019 at Harbin Medical University were retrospectively analyzed determination of optimal thresholds for leukocytes, lymphocytes, neutrophils and NLR before and after RFA. Risk factors for early HCC recurrence and risk factors affecting recurrence-free survival (RFS) were analyzed using univariate and multivariate Cox hazard ratio models. Plot Kaplan-Meier survival curves.
Results: Respective preoperative and postoperative optimal thresholds were as follows: neutrophils, 3.431 and 4.975; leukocytes, 5.575 and 6.61; lymphocytes, 1.455 and 1.025; and NLR, 1.53 and 4.36. Univariate analysis revealed tumor number; alpha-fetoprotein level; postoperative leukocytes, lymphocytes, NLR, and neutrophils; preoperative neutrophils and NLR; and PP-NLR to be factors influencing early recurrence and RFS. Multivariate analysis showed that PP-NLR was an independent risk factor for poor RFS and early recurrence in HCC patients after RFA.
Conclusion: Patients with high preoperative NLR, neutrophils, and alpha-fetoprotein level; high postoperative NLR, neutrophils, and leukocytes; low postoperative lymphocytes; and multiple tumors may have shorter RFS and a higher possibility of early recurrence. PP-NLR was more effective for predicting the prognosis than preoperative or postoperative NLR alone.
A novel framework for planning policy and responsible stakeholders in industrial wastewater reuse projects: a case study in Iran
Authors: Piadeh Farzad , Ahmadi Mohsen , Behzadian Kourosh 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
Industrial wastewater recycling projects are mainly used for alleviation of both water scarcity and contamination of freshwater bodies. These projects mainly address major challenges related to technological and economic aspects rather than stakeholders’ responsibility. Hence, little is known for the role of responsible stakeholders as a major part of planning policy, which requires recognition of their crucial role and integration into associated procedures. This paper presents a new decision support framework to identify responsible stakeholders and reveals the role of their motivations. The approach integrates qualitative and frequency analysis methods into a comprehensive framework to identify the problems over the project lifetime from visible to their roots and link them together with stakeholders through deep mapping. The planning policy framework is applied to a real-world case study of industrial parks in Iran. The results of the case study show that visible economic, social, and technological problems are caused by responsible stakeholders with no direct role in those projects. Additionally, deep mapping analysis shows various deep roots caused by the government and industry are linked to visible problems across all project phases that are related to the role of stakeholders, their behaviour, and deep beliefs.
