Filling a Gap between Integrated Methods in the Digital Corpus
Authors: Cipriani Anna Maria 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
Digital technologies can be used to complement traditional descriptive translation studies (DTS) with various types of textual explorations. However, there is still a historical discrepancy between the digital corpus techniques applied to DTS drawing on corpus linguistics mainly focusing on linguistic features of translation and the DTS focusing on non-linguistic categories. Drawing on Zanettin’s (2011, 2013) proposed interpretative annotations, the methodology developed here extends the digital corpus approach to investigate whether and how the non-linguistic modernist features of Virginia Woolf’s To the Lighthouse are rendered in multiple (re)translations into Italian. This extension of the corpus approach fits with Bassnett’s and Lefevere’s (1990) ‘cultural turn’ from linguistic translation theories to Even-Zohar’s and Toury’s (1980, 1981) polysystems theory for contextual (historical, social, and cultural) explanations, which are the defining basis of the DTS approach. In the case study considered here, the exhaustive and complete analysis demonstrates that the multiple retranslations are ‘modernist’ only marginally.

Authors: Zhang Gongsen , Jiang Zejun , Zhu Jian , Wang Linlin 
Published: September 2022

Abstract

Purpose: To develop a 3D dose distribution prediction deep learning model for volumetric modulated arc radiotherapy (VMAT) of cervical cancer, and to explore the impact of different multichannel input data on the prediction accuracy, especially to prove the feasibility of dose prediction only based on computed tomography (CT) images and planning target volume (PTV) delineated contours. Methods: A total of 118 VMAT cases were collected, which were made into three datasets with different multichannel combinations. In addition to the clinical dose distribution data occupying one channel, the three datasets were as follows: Dataset-A, 7 channels, included CT images, the PTV and the organs at risk (OARs); Dataset-B, 2 channels included CT images and the PTV; Dataset-C, a single channel, included only CT images. A full-scale feature fusion 3D conditional generative adversarial network (cGAN) based dose distribution prediction architecture was proposed, with multiple losses function used as the optimization target. Under this framework, three models were obtained by training with the three datasets: Model-A, Model-B and Model-C. The following indicators were used to evaluate and compare the performance of the models: (1) the 3D dose difference map and the mean absolute error (MAE); (2) the dose-volume histogram (DVH) curve; (3) the dose index (DI) of the PTV and OARs; (4) the Dice similarity coefficient (DSC). Results: The proposed model accurately predicts the 3D dose distribution. For the twenty test patients, the MAE of Model-A is 1.1±0.2%, the MAE of Model-B and Model-C are 1.4±0.2%, and 1.9±0.3% respectively. There are no significant differences between the DIs of PTV (D99%, D98%, D95%, HI and CI) and OARs of Model-A and Model-B from the clinical result. The average DSC of Model-A with different isodose volumes is greater than 0.94. Model-B and Model-C follow with average DSCs greater than 0.91 and 0.86 respectively. Conclusion: We propose a new dose prediction model based on a full-scale fusion and generative adversarial architecture, confirming the feasibility of dose prediction based only on CT images and the PTV. The method proposed provides a simpler and more effective method for clinical dose assessment, radiotherapy planning assistance and automatic planning.
Machine Learning Based Prototype Working Model to Determine Category of Garbage Waste Using Raspberry Pi
Authors: Gupta Aadi , Gupta Nitin , Gupta Jyoti 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
Existing waste management ecosystem includes various steps like collecting the waste material from different places and transporting it to a waste treatment plant for treatment and disposal of waste. In urban and rural areas, the most important and basic step of segregation of waste is not followed properly by majority of the people. There are multiple factors attached to this root cause. Lack of awareness is one of the main reasons behind it, i.e., sometimes people themselves are not sure which dustbin to put the waste in as they are not sure on the category of the waste. As a result, people just throw the waste in the dustbin without recognizing the purpose of the deployed dustbin which defeats the overall objective of the waste management system. To address this problem, we have prepared a prototype working model using Raspberry Pi that runs a machine learning model to determine the category of the waste material and displays it on a display so that the person can decide whether to throw the waste material into a wet waste dustbin or dry waste dustbin. This prototype is one of the novel initiatives which will help the society in many ways and can be deployed in residential areas, malls, industrial areas, schools, hospitals, etc. The developed model will help the society and make them aware about disposing the waste material in a correct dustbin.
Trade Liberalization on Economic Growth in Nigeria (1981 – 2018). An Empirical Study
Authors: Ogundipe Michael , Adenekan Adesola 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
In this investigation, the effects of trade liberalization on Nigerian economic growth between 1981 and 2018 were examined. To ascertain if the dependent variable and the explanatory variables are temporally volatile, descriptive statistics were used. The relationships between the variables over the long and short terms were also investigated using the Augmented Dickey Fuller (ADF) unit root test. A co-integration test was run to ascertain whether there was a long-run relationship between the variables in order to validate the unit root test result. As a result, only foreign direct investment and labor are statistically significant in predicting economic growth in Nigeria in the short run; FDI is statistically significant at a level of 10%, while labor is statistically significant at a level of 5%. Gross capital formation, trade, and exchange rates have statistically negligible effects on how quickly the economy grows. All of the model's variables are statistically significant in the long run for predicting economic growth. At the 5% level of significance, every variable is statistically significant.

Published: September 2022

Abstract
Artisanal fishers, fishing in nearshore coastal waters off Visakhapatnam using motorized crafts and in estuaries of Krishna using non-motorized crafts were selected for the study. Their annual net operating income varied between US$ 520.53 and US$ 2990.93, respectively. Inspired by the potential of cage farming from the frontline demonstrations in marine and estuarine waters, and after acquiring appropriate skills, 15 individuals from the Traditional Fishermen’s Co-operative Society, Visakhapatnam and 76 individuals from Yanadri Girijana Matsya Sakhara Sangam, Krishna embarked on cage aquaculture of Indian pompano in 15 and 70 cages. Marine cages were circular (6 m diameter) and estuarine cages were square (5 m X 5 m), and were stocked with hatchery-produced Indian pompano (Trachinotus mookalee) fingerlings of 22.6 g weight @ 2500 and 1500 numbers respectively, and were fed with floating pellets at 8 − 3% of biomass. Average body weight, survival and production from marine and estuarine cages were 843 g and 666 g, 96.28% and 91.47%, and 2029.0 kg and 913.85 kg respectively. Deducting all capital and operational expenses, annual net operating income per unit ranged from US$ 1383 to US$ 2917; which represented an improvement from that of capture-fishing. Cluster-cage farming, as adopted, did not adversely impact the water and sediment quality. Present study, provides virgin knowledge on bio-growth and economic parameters for commercial cage farming of Indian pompano, and when vigilantly replicated for marine and estuarine tropical waters offers immense promise as diversified or additional livelihood option for artisanal fishers in ensuring their economic sustainability.

Published: September 2022

Abstract
Chromium pollution of water is one of the severest environmental challenges threatening human health. Anion exchange material on the based polyvinylchloride have been demonstrated effective in dichromate ions removal. To study the structure morphology of the PPE-2 anion exchanger different characterization techniques such as XRD, FTIR, and SEM were applied. Moreover, the synthesized anion exchanger PPE-2 was used as effective removal for hexavalent chromium ions in aqueous media. The pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order used to evaluate the kinetic models and the mechanism of the adsorption. Results showed that the adsorption kinetics best fit the pseudo-second order model. The Freundlich isotherm and the pseudo-second order kinetic model were more consistent with the removal of ions from aqueous solutions. In the case of hexavalent chromium ions, the maximum adsorption capacity was 148,4 mg/g. Dubinin-Radushkevich (D-R) free energy of adsorption (ED) energy values were >16 kJ/mol which indicates chemical interaction between ion exchange material and Cr (VI) ions. Thermodynamic data revealed spontaneous endothermic processes and was a chemisorption reaction. In addition, results show that the anion exchanger (PPE-2) has high efficiency for removing hexavalent chromium ions from wastewater containing.
Networked Restless Multi-Armed Bandits for Mobile Interventions

Published: September 2022

Abstract

Motivated by a broad class of mobile intervention problems, we propose and study restless multi-armed bandits (RMABs) with network effects. In our model, arms are partially recharging and connected through a graph, so that pulling one arm also improves the state of neighboring arms, significantly extending the previously studied setting of fully recharging bandits with no network effects. In mobile interventions, network effects may arise due to regular population movements (such as commuting between home and work). We show that network effects in RMABs induce strong reward coupling that is not accounted for by existing solution methods. We propose a new solution approach for networked RMABs, exploiting concavity properties which arise under natural assumptions on the structure of intervention effects. We provide sufficient conditions for optimality of our approach in idealized settings and demonstrate that it empirically outperforms state-of-the art baselines in three mobile intervention domains using real-world graphs.
Recent Advances in Controlled Atmosphere Storage of Fruits
Authors: Smock R. M. 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
The classic work of Kidd and West in England in the 1920’s and 1930’s led to the introduction of controlled atmosphere (CA) storage of fruits. CA storage involves the use of lower than normal oxygen and higher than normal carbon dioxide levels in gastight, refrigerated rooms. England led the way, but in 1965 the CA storage capacity for apples in the U.S. was over 14 million bushels (although actual bushels in CA storage is slightly less due to a short crop in some areas). In Israel, a small country producing only about 2 million boxes of apples, the CA storage capacity is one-half million boxes.

Authors: Mohr H. C. , Knavel D. E. 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
The development of short-internode cantaloupes has been of interest for a number of years because of the obvious advantages of potentially larger plant populations and, more recently, mechanical harvest. In those areas where furrow irrigation is practiced, the savings in labor requirement to keep vines trained up on the beds is also a factor.
Variation Among Tomato Lines with Respect to Ammonium Tolerance1
Authors: Maynard D. N. , Barker A. V. , Lachman W. H. 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
Variation within a particular species has resulted in the development of large numbers of cultivars in important horticultural and agronomic crops. A great number of characters are important in the determination of the merit of any cultivar. Variation among characters relating to plant nutrition have not been as well studied as some other characters. Nevertheless, sizeable reviews on this topic have been prepared by Millikan (4) and Vose (5). Stem lesions (Fig. 1) resulting from excess ammonium have recently been described (2, 3). Differences in varietal susceptibility were indicated. The purpose of this investigation was to ascertain if further varietal differences among commercial and experimental lines could be demonstrated.

Abstract
A method we have used to study the external characteristics, including stomata, of leaves may be of interest to other horticulturists. We do not know who originated the method but it was first brought to our attention by research workers of United Fruit Company. The method involves making a negative impression of the leaf surface and using the negative to make a positive transparent film which may be studied under a microscope.
A Method for Estimating Yields of Shelled Lima Beans
Authors: Tucker C. L. 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
A major consideration in determining the number of entries in a yield trial is the amount of time and effort involved with each plot. Commercial methods of harvesting such crops as fresh lima beans and shelled peas are not suitable for experimental plots. The present experiment was designed to evaluate the feasibility of using indices (such as shelled weight/unshelled pod weight) in estimating yield of shelled seeds for large field plots from small samples.
An Effect of Row Orientation on Onion Development

Published: September 2022

Abstract
An apparent difference in premature bolting was noticed between paired rows of onions planted in an east-west direction during the 1963 season in Vicosa, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Eight varieties of onions had been seeded April 14 (fall), transplanted to the field on June 7 (winter), and harvested in December (summer). The varieties were planted consecutively in the field in a serpentine arrangement. Double rows, 40 cm. apart, were separated by an irrigation furrow, 60 cm. wide, creating a “north” and “south” oriented row. The number of double rows per variety varied from 2 to 18.

Authors: Cathey Henry M. , Yoeman A. H. , Smith Floyd F. 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
Alkvlnaphthalenes are used as solvents for chlorinated insecticides and herbicides. Johnson, Veomans, and Smith (2) reported that these solvents could cause the death of the apical meristems of chrysanthemums when applied in concentrated solutions or in mechanically or thermallv generated aerosols. Controlling the number of flowers and fruits on a stem is not only of academic interest but of practical importance. Thev are now controlled on chrysanthemums by removing the excess by hand. Research reported in this paper show that HAN,R a petroleum fraction containing a large percentage of alkvlnaphthalenes. can be used to control the number of flowers borne by chrysanthemum plants.

Chemical Induction of Flowering in Triploid Apple Progenies
Authors: Dayton D. F. 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
Tetraploid chimeral apple sports, the Kimball Mcintosh (3), and the Doud Golden Delicious (1), were crossed with apple scab-immune unnamed seedlings to produce presumably triploid progenies. These sports were used as seed parents. Seedlings lacking normal vigor in the greenhouse were discarded but some lacked vigor in the field even though earlier they had appeared moderately vigorous. In the field the vigorous seedlings were normal in all respects except for their slowness to come into bearing. With other similar triploid progenies attempts to hasten fruiting by girdling had little effect. Furthermore, the cut on girdled limbs often allowed the entry of the causal organism of fireblight, with resultant serious infection.

Authors: Uhlinger Roger D. 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
Delayed, erratic germination of seeds of woody plant species can complicate the evaluation of seedling populations in genetic or breeding studies. Philadelphus lewisi pursh is a hardy species under the environmental conditions of the High Plains and has potential as a useful woody ornamental. A study of the requirements for germinating seeds of Philadelphus was initiated, since such information was not found in the literature.

Abstract
Principal hosts of the misletoe Phoradendron flavescens (Pursh.) Nutt. that infests black and English walnut trees in California are common cottonwood and California buckeye, but it also occurs on many other trees. The mistletoe usually becomes established in new growth or roughened areas along the older stems and crotches of branches of the host trees (2).
The Chloroform Test as a Measure of Fermentation in Chinese Tea1
Authors: Bellizio J. E. , Soule J. 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
The chloroform test is a good measure of fermentation, a vital step in the manufacture of black tea. Time of harvest, temperature and duration of exposure to chloroform were variables on two-leaf-and-a-bud samples to assist in selection of Chinese tea clones grown under Florida conditions. Change in color from green to deep golden brown to brown, indicative of good fermentation, took place faster and more uniformly among samples plucked in the morning. Best color development occurred at 27° to 30° C and with 150 to 180 minutes exposure to chloroform vapor.
Influence of N6-Benzyladenine on the Postharvest Rate of Respiration of Strawberries1
Authors: Dayawon M. M. , Shutak V. G. 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
Preharvest spray and postharvest dip treatments of N6-benzyladenine (N6-BA) have been found effective in prolonging storage life of green leafy vegetables (4). It has been suggested that this effect can be explained on the basis of respiration inhibition (1). Dedolph et at (2) observed significant reductions of CO2 evolution and oxygen uptake with N6-BA treated broccoli at 21° and 30°C. Freshly harvested asparagus spears treated with N6-BA and then held in the dark for 136 hours also showed a lower respiration rate as measured by CO2 evolution (1). This compound has also been shown to delay visual manifestations of senescence which occur during storage and was effective in maintaining the green color and appearance of several kinds of vegetables (4). In fruits, Smock et al (3) found that dip treatment or spraying of N6-BA depressed the rate of respiration of apples during the post climacteric phase but accelerated respiration in the preclimacteric phase,
Comparative Observations upon Ovary Retention and Rate of Young Fruit Growth in Tomato1
Authors: Davis R. M. , Smith P. G. , Schweers V. H. , Scheverman R. W. 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
Retention and early growth of ovaries of tomato cultivar Earlipak No. 7 (L. esculentum, Mill.) and a related breeding line were recorded for several weeks at 4 locations. Percent fruit-set, defined as the percentage of flowers of which ovaries were retained and reached a diameter of at least ¼ inch in 2 weeks, was not a reliable index of either ovary retention or early ovary growth. Important information concerning the fruiting of tomato may be lost, when data are collected on the basis of the defined fruit set rather than observed ovary retention and ovary growth specifically.

Gravel Culture Home Unit
Authors: Schwarz Meier 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
Gravel culture has been shown to be the most practical long-term way to supply fresh vegetables to isolated communities or arid areas where soil or water are scarce or only saline water is available (3). The cheapest type of installation for gravel culture is one that operates on the terraced-gravityflow principle (1) (2) but such systems are not practical on a small scale due to the relatively large height differences required between terraces (4). The following proposed home unit has the advantage of gravity flow without the disadvantages of excessive height differences between terraces.
A Comparison of Sod Type and Fertilization during Turf Establishment
Authors: Peacock Charles H. , Dudeck A. E. 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
Organic-(muck) and mineral-(sand) grown sods of ‘Floratam’ St. Augus tinegrass [Stenotaphrum secundatum (Walt.) Kuntze] were planted on 27 Apr. 1982. Two fertilizer rates (5 g N m-2 and 10 g N m-2) were applied before planting (sodbed surface) or after planting (sod surface). Rooting strength and turf quality were evaluated at 2 and 4 weeks, and growth rate at 4 weeks postplanting. Mineral-grown sod had greater rooting strength at 2 and 4 weeks after planting. Fertilizer placement was a factor only at 4 weeks, with sod surface better than sodbed placement. Strongest rooting occurred at 5 g N m-2. Turf quality and growth rate were greatest for organic-grown sod whereas the 10 g N m-2 fertilizer rate produced the best quality and greatest growth rate.
Physiological and Growth Responses of Seashore Paspalum to Salinity
Authors: Peacock C. H. , Dudeck A. E. 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
Two cultivars of Seashore Paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum Swartz.), ‘Adalayd’ (‘Excaliber’) and ‘FSP-1’, were grown in solution culture at 6 levels of salinity derived from synthetic sea water. Cultivars differed in changes of leaf water potential, leaf water potential components, and in growth responses to increased salinity. ‘Adalayd’ exhibited a linear decrease whereas ‘FSP-1’ exhibited a quadratic decrease in leaf water potential with increasing salinity. Leaf osmotic potentials decreased linearly for both cultivars, but there was a significant interaction. Leaf turgor potential decreased linearly for ‘Adalayd’ but quadratically for ‘FSP-1’. ‘FSP-1’ had greater tolerance to salinity in solution culture than Adalayd.
