Published: September 2022

Deteksi tepi adalah segmentasi input citra yang bertujuan untuk menentukan tepi dengan menandai bagian detail dari suatu citra. Dari beberapa penelitian sebelumnya belum menunjukkan hasil deteksi untuk dapat memisahkan objek dari pusat citra masukan citra itu sendiri.
Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah melakukan fungsi deteksi tepi dengan membagi menjadi node menggunakan konsep metode Quadran Tree Classifier untuk diterapkan pada studi kasus objek citra berwarna menggunakan bendera negara. Beberapa gambar masukan memiliki tingkat kerumitan dan piksel yang berbeda, antara lain bendera Korea, bendera Wales, dan bendera Indonesia yang berkibar.
Metode yang digunakan adalah adopsi struktur data pohon, dimana masing-masing memiliki 4 node dengan jumlah child node yang sama. Jika node memiliki anak, jumlah node harus 4, secara rekursif melakukan loop. Konsep kerja dari metode split and merge segmentation ini. Hasil segmentasi objek digabungkan sesuai dengan homogenitas warna, terutama yang memiliki kerancuan.
Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa mampu mengamati pemindaian piksel pada citra bendera Korea dan bendera Indonesia yang berkibar, namun level piksel 520 x 347 seperti bendera Wales, metode ini tidak dapat memisahkan antara objek garis yang tidak senggol. Resolusi piksel berpengaruh terhadap total waktu eksekusi segmentasi (menit/detik), total segmentasi yang teridentifikasi dan total warna.
AUTOMATIC QUADRATURE SCHEME FOR CAUCHY TYPE SINGULAR INTEGRAL ON THE VARIABLE INTERVAL
Authors: ESHKUVATOV Z.K. , AL-HADI ISMAIL AHMAD AL-QASEM , BAHRAMOV S. 
Published: September 2022

In this note, we consider the product indefinite integral of the form

An automatic quadrature scheme (AQS) is constructed for evaluating Cauchy principal singular integrals in two cases. In the first case c∈ [y,z] ⊂ [-1,1] where -1 < y < z < 1, density function h(t) is approximated by the truncated sum of Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind. Direct substitution does not give solutions so we have used the AQS and reduced problems into algebraic equation with unknown parameters bk which can be found in terms of the singular point with some front conditions. In the second case c ∈ [-1,1], the application of the AQS reduced the number of calculations twice and accuracy is increased. As a theoretical result, the convergence theorem of the proposed method is proven in a Hilbert space. Numerical examples with exact solutions and comparisons with other methods are also given, and they are in the line with theoretical findings.

Objective: To review the impact of age on perioperative and postoperative outcomes in patients following pancreaticoduodenectomy.
Method: The retrospective study was conducted at the Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Centre, Lahore, Pakistan, and comprised data from January 2014 to December 2018 of all patients who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy. Postoperative morbidity and oncological outcomes were compared between patients aged 60 years in group A and those aged >60 years in group B. Data was analysed using SPSS 20.
Results: Of the 161 patients, 103(64%) were males and 58(36%) were females. There were 117(73%) patients in group A; 72(61.5%) males and 45(38.5%) females with an overall mean age of 46±11 years. The remaining 44(27%) were in group B; 31(70.5%) males and 13(29.5%) females with an overall mean age of 67±05 years.The most common pathology was adenocarcinoma 130(81%), commonest site was periampullary 85(53%) and the most common pancreatic reconstruction technique employed was pancreaticogastrostomy 110(68%). Patients in group B had significantly higher comorbidities compared to those in group A (p<0.05). Estimated blood loss during surgery was significantly higher in group B (p=0.004). There was no significant difference in overall morbidity (p=0.856), reoperation (p=1.000), 30-day readmission rate (p=0.097), 90-day mortality rate (p=0.324)) and overall survival (p=0.551) between the groups.
Conclusion: Pancreatoduodenectomy could be performed in the elderly with comparable morbidity and oncological outcomes as younger patients. Comorbid conditions remained higher in elderly patients and preoperative optimisation may help improve postoperative outcomes.

The article presents the results of studies of freeze-drying of various types of honey. The purpose of the research was to determine the optimal parameters for the freeze-drying of honey. The physical and chemical parameters of three types of honey produced in the East Kazakhstan region were previously studied. The results showed that the studied prototypes meet the regulatory requirements for the quality of natural honey. It has been established that in terms of moisture content, sunflower honey differs from mountain honey and sweet clover (15 %, 17.3 % and 17.2 %, respectively), and also contains a high amount of reducing sugars (87.9 %), however, the mass fraction of sucrose is 2.5 %. It is noted that the highest content of sucrose in mountain honey is 4.5 %. The diastase number is an indicator of the quality and naturalness of honey and, according to the requirements of GOST, should be at least 8 Gote units, the results show that the studied samples of honey contain from 13.1 to 15.1 units, which confirms the influence of the geographical origin of honey. According to the value of water activity, all types of honey are products with low humidity and long-term storage. The optimal technological modes of freeze-drying of honey have been established, which range from minus 30 °C to minus 40 °C degrees.

Authors: Hussain Uzair , Ali Ahmad , Sultan Kashif , Alvi Asim , Khan Muhammad Waleed 
Published: September 2022

Malaria is a potentially fatal disease which is caused by Plasmodium parasite. These parasites are transmitted to humans through the bites of female Anopheles mosquitoes which play the role of disease vector. Five types of plasmodium cause malaria named P. Falciparum, P. Vivax, P. Ovale, P. Knowlesi, and P. Malariae, Among the Plasmodium parasites, Falciparum and Vivax are particularly lethal to humans. Therefore, early detection of malaria is mandatory to avoid the loss of human life. Different automatic/semi-automatic malaria detection techniques are available in the literature, which reduces the chance of human errors in the prognosis of malaria. In recent years, deep learning-based methods have proven to be effective for object detection. Therefore, such methods have caught the attention of researchers to use for the detection of malarial parasites in human blood. In this paper, we proposed a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model, which detects malarial parasites in microscopic images of human blood samples with high accuracy. The proposed model comprises 15 layers. It has 8 convolution layers with ReLu activation function, 4 max-pooling layers, 1 flattening layer, and 2 fully connected layers. The proposed method has been evaluated using various statistical measures against existing state-of-the-art methods. The quantitative measures show the effectiveness of the proposed model. It has a 97.42% testing accuracy, 97.42% sensitivity, 97.41% specificity, 97.70% precision, 97.42% recall , 97.97% F1-score , 97.41% Area Under Curve (AUC), and 94.82% Mathews correlation coefficient.
Designing A Non-Invasive Testing Device for Infant Diabetes using Saliva

Published: September 2022

Neonatal diabetes is estimated to affect 1 in every 95,000 to 1 in every 400,000 live births. Male and female infants are equally affected by the disease, which has been recorded in all ethnic groups. Neonatal diabetes mellitus is a type of diabetes that develops within the first six months of life. Insulin is a hormone that aids in the production of energy in our cells. This condition causes infants to produce insufficient insulin, resulting in elevated blood glucose levels. Therefore, it is very important to design a testing device that can monitor premature babies indicating symptoms of diabetes. Recognizing the signs of diabetes in an infant might be difficult because diabetes in babies is not common. Frequent wet diapers, a high appetite, dehydration, and weight loss are all signs of neonatal diabetes. Once you have diabetes, you're used to having to take tests to monitor your condition. Conventionally invasive methods are used to check neonatal diabetes which is a painful procedure for infants as it requires prinking to draw blood several times per day. Therefore, this paper aims to design a non-invasive testing design for neonatal diabetes that is not painful to babies. There are several non-invasive ways to test blood glucose levels; urine, sweat, and saliva. Urine tests can be used to detect glucose levels in urine and check for the presence of ketones. The presence of ketone above the threshold indicates a high blood glucose level of over 300ml/dL. Sweat is also used to test diabetes. Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) is caused by high blood sugar levels, and it indicates that blood sugar control has to be tightened. Saliva is a new medium to measure blood glucose levels and research is going on its use to measure diabetes. Previous research has found a strong relationship between blood glucose levels and saliva glucose levels. In this paper, saliva is used as a non-invasive method to measure neonatal diabetes. Saliva containing glucose is collected and treated with glucose oxidase. H2O2 produced during this reaction is further treated and an optical sensor along with a microcontroller is used to measure the concentration of blood glucose. The expected results based on the study indicate the amount of glucose in the saliva increases in proportion to the amount of glucose in the blood and confirms the relationship between glucose concentrations in the blood and saliva, implying that the proposed design can take the place of the existing devices. However, more tests should be carried out to improve the efficacy of the proposed design for detecting glucose in saliva.
Advertising social security fraud
Authors: Grover Chris 
Published: September 2022

This article analyses the representation of social security fraud in the UK’s Department for Work and Pensions’ (DWP) television advertising campaign between 2000 and 2004. The article discusses the campaign in the context of New Labour’s concerns with social security fraud and observes that the ostensible aim of the television advertisements was to deter social security fraud. The article then moves on to discuss the difficulties of the advertising campaign in meeting this aim in the context of what is known about the nature of social security fraud.
Since the 1970s, the mass media in the UK has been fascinated by social security fraud (Golding and Middleton, 1982; Golding, 1999). However, since the year 2000 there has been a further media representation of social security fraud; the anti-fraud advertisement. Despite recent literature commenting on ‘fraud in the public domain’ (Sainsbury, 2003, pp 290-92) the anti-fraud advertisements have received no analytical attention. This article addresses this issue by focusing on the ‘Targeting fraud’ and the ‘We’re onto you’ television advertisements. These advertisements were part of a campaign that also involved newspaper, poster and radio advertisements, but there is not enough space here to analyse these other types of advertisements.
This article outlines the New Labour government’s concerns with social security fraud and locates the television advertising campaign in relation to them. The article goes on to offer a textual analysis of the advertisements, focusing on the theme of deterring social security fraud, before critically engaging with the advertisements by focusing on their representation of social security fraud and the potential of the advertisements to deter fraudulent activity.

Authors: DOĞAN Murat 
Published: September 2022

Purpose: In this study, it is aimed to prepare chitosan nanoparticles containing shRNA-VEGF and evaluate their bioactivity by in vitro cell culture studies and to perform mechanical characterization of nanoparticles.
Material and Methods: Ionic chelation method was used to prepare nanoparticles. The XTT assay was used to assess the cytotoxic activity of shRNA-VEGF and shRNA-VEGF loaded NP on the HeLa and NIH 3T3 cells.
Results: According to the results IC50 values of shRNA-VEGF and NP including shRNA-VEGF were calculated. IC50 values of shRNA-VEGF and NP including shRNA-VEGF were 0.89±0.010 µg/mL and 0.52±0.004 µg/mL on HeLa cell line. Bax quantities of control, shRNA-VEGF, and shRNA-VEGF loaded NP was measured as 23.70±0.27 ng/mg protein, 34.64±0.36 ng/mg protein, and 39.46±0.54 ng/mg protein, respectively. According to the results, cleaved caspase 3 quantities of control, shRNA-VEGF, and shRNA-VEGF loaded NP was measured as 711.70±4.40 pg/mg protein, 767.23±3.82 pg/mg protein, and 825.32±5.06 pg/mg protein, respectively.
Conclusion: shRNA-VEGF and shRNA-VEGF loaded NP significantly reduced HeLa cell reproduction in a concentration-dependent manner while generating no cytotoxicity in NIH 3T3 cells. The expression of pro-apoptotic Bax and cleaved caspase 3 proteins was significantly increased by shRNA-VEGF and shRNA-VEGF loaded NP.
