DOCES DE IDENTIDADE: REFLEXÕES SOBRE A CONSTRUÇÃO DA IDENTIDADE BRASILEIRA
Creators: name: Taynnã Valentim Rodrigues

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: O presente artigo discorre sobre o desenvolvimento de um projeto pedagógico desenvovido na ECIT. Francisco Ernesto do Rêgo, situada no munícipio de Queimadas- PB, que teve como preocupação reflexões sobre o processo de construção da identidade brasileira, tomando como aporte teórico a discussão realizada por José Carlos Reis (2007) ao evidenciar que não existe uma homogeneidade quando falamos sobre identidade no Brasil. A partir do pensamento de Reis é possível entender a complexidade do conceito de identidade e sua relação com a formação do Brasil enquanto um país marcado pela diversidade, que nem sempre é compreendida e valorizada. Diante desta problemática, foi proposto um projeto na qual nossos estudantes pudessem conhecer um pouco sobre a formação do Brasil em sua perspectiva histórica, social e política, a fim de perceber as múltiplas identidades presentes nessa história. Durante o desenvolvimento das atividades, conhecemos doces associados à identidade étnica de alguns povos, e assim nasceu o projeto “Doce de identidade”. A discussão apresentado se mostra em conexão com documentos oficiais da educação, como os Parâmentos Curriculares Nacionais em seu tema transversal “Pluralidade Cultural”, e ainda com respaldo legal na Lei n° 10.639/2003 e a Lei n° 12.288/2010 que rege o Estatuto da Igualdade Racial. E por fim, o Objetivo de Desenvolvimento Sustentável – ODS 18, que também encontrasse articulado com as discussão do presente projeto, na perspectiva de promover uma educação antirracista.

description: The maternal liver exhibits robust adaptations to pregnancy to accommodate the metabolic needs of developing and growing placenta and fetus by largely unknown mechanisms. We found that achaete-scute homolog 1 (Ascl1), a basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor essential for neuronal development, is highly activated in maternal hepatocytes during the second half of gestation in mice. Our aim is to investigate whether and how Ascl1 plays a pregnancy-dependent role. We deleted the Ascl1 gene in the maternal liver using three independent mouse models from mid-gestation until term and identified multiple Ascl1-dependent phenotypes. When Ascl1 was deficient in maternal hepatocytes, maternal livers exhibited aberrant hepatocyte histology, fat accumulation, increased hepatocyte cell cycle, and enlarged size, accompanied by reduced albumin production and elevated levels of free fatty acids, ALT, and AST in the maternal blood, indicating maternal liver dysfunction. In the same situation, maternal spleen and pancreas displayed marked enlargement without an overt structural change; the placenta exhibited striking overgrowth with increased ALP production; and the cecal microbiome showed alterations in the relative abundance of several bacterial subpopulations. Moreover, litters born from maternal hepatic Ascl1 null mutated dam experienced abnormal postnatal growth after weaning. RNA-seq analysis revealed Ascl1-regulated genes in the maternal liver associated with Ascl1-dependent phenotypes. Of particular interest, we found that, in maternal hepatocytes, Ascl1 loss-of-function caused the activation of paternally imprinted gene insulin-like growth factor 2 (Igf2) encoding a major placental and fetal growth factor. IGF2 is also a known mitogen for hepatocytes and several hematopoietic lineages. Thus, IGF2 is a potential inducer of Ascl1-dependent phenotypes including placental overgrowth and maternal organ enlargement. Our studies revealed Ascl1 as a novel regulator of maternal liver physiology during pregnancy. Ascl1 activation in maternal hepatocytes is essential for normal placental growth and appropriate maternal organ adaptations, ensuring the health of both the mother and the fetus.

Game AI of StarCraft II based on Deep Reinforcement Learning
Creators: name: Luo, Junjie
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2020
Subjects: Artificial intelligence not elsewhere classified

description: The research problem of this article is the Game AI agent of StarCraft II based on Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL). StarCraft II is viewed as the most challenging Real-time Strategy (RTS) game for now, and it is also the most popular game where researchers are developing and improving AI agents. Building AI agents of StarCraft II can help researchers on machine learning figure out the weakness of DRL and improve this series of algorithms. In 2018, DeepMind and Blizzard developed the StarCraft II Learning Environment (PySC2) to enable researchers to promote the development of AI agents. DeepMind started to develop a new project called AlphaStar after AlphaGo based on DRL, while several laboratories also published articles about the AI agents of StarCraft II. Most of them are researching on the AI agents of Terran and Zerg, which are two of three races in StarCraft II. AI agents show high-level performance compared with most StarCraft II players. However, the performance is far from defeating E-sport players because Game AI for StarCraft II has large observation space and large action space. However, there is no publication on Protoss, which is the remaining and most complicated race to deal with (larger action space, larger observation space) for AI agents due to its characteristics. Thus, in this paper, the research question is whether the AI agent of Protoss, which is developed by the model based on DRL, for a full-length game on a particular map can defeat the high-level built-in cheating AI. The population of this research design is the StarCraft II AI agents that researchers built based on their DRL models, while the sample is the Protoss AI agent in this paper. The raw data is from the game matches between the Protoss AI agent and built-in AI agents. PySC2 can capture features and numerical variables in each match to obtain the training data. The expected outcome is the model based on DRL, which can train a Protoss AI agent to defeat high-level game AI agents with the win rate. The model includes the action space of Protoss, the observation space and the realization of DRL algorithms. Meanwhile, the model is built on PySC2 v2.0, which provides additional action functions. Due to the complexity and the unique characteristics of Protoss in StarCraft II, the model cannot be applied to other games or platforms. However, how the model trains a Protoss AI agent can show the limitation of DRL and push DRL algorithm a little forward.

description: The study focused on creating and proposing a model that could accurately and precisely predict the occurrence of an American Sign Language gesture for an alphabet in the English Languageusing the You Only Look Once (YOLOv3) Algorithm. The training dataset used for this study was custom created and was further divided into clusters based on the uniqueness of the ASL sign.Three diverse clusters were created. Each cluster was trained with the network known as darknet. Testing was conducted using images and videos for fully trained models of each cluster andAverage Precision for each alphabet in each cluster and Mean Average Precision for each cluster was noted. In addition, a Word Builder script was created. This script combined the trained models, of all 3 clusters, to create a comprehensive system that would create words when the trained models were suppliedwith images of alphabets in the English language as depicted in ASL.

description: In the working paper I describe in detail the approach for Open Access definitions which was presented in the Workshop "Open Access Monitoring - Approaches and Perspectives" in Vienna. It defines five criteria on which are the definitions build. Each criteria can be out of 4 classes. The minimum classes for the criteria which are used in a Open Access definition can be presented as the Classification of Open Access Tuples e.g. Open Access (Berlin Declaration) (1,1,1,1,3) this methods allows much easier to distinguish between different Open Access definitions. This is needed if the Open Access Universe should be measured in studies or monitoring approaches and the results should become more comparable.

description: One of the greatest challenges when designing new technologies that make use of non-trivial quantum materials is the difficulty associated with predicting material-specific properties, such as critical temperature, gap parameter, etc. There is naturally a great amount of interest in these types of condensed matter systems because of their application to quantum sensing, quantum electronics, and quantum computation; however, they are exceedingly difficult to address from first principles because of the famous many-body problem. For this reason, a full electron-nuclear quantum calculation will likely remain completely out of reach for the foreseeable future. A practical alternative is provided by finite temperature, multi component density functional theory (MCDFT), which is a formally exact method of computing the equilibrium state energy of a many-body quantum system. In this work, we use this construction alongside a perturbative scheme to demonstrate that the phenomena Peierls effect and Kohn Anomaly are both natural features of the KS equations without additional structure needed. We find the temperature dependent ionic density for a simple 1D lattice which is then used to derive the ionic densities temperature dependent affect on the electronic band structure. This is accomplished by Fourier transforming the ionic density term found within this KS electronic equation. Using the Peierls effect phonon distortion gap openings in relation to the Fermi level, we then perturb the KS ionic equation with a conduction electron density, deriving the Kohn Anomaly. This provides a workable predictive strategy for interesting electro-phonon related material properties which could be extended to 2D and 3D real materials while retaining the otherwise complicated temperature dependence.

description: Future hardware development will have a significant impact on all areas of

scientific computing including the Life Sciences. Upcoming extreme-scale compute platforms will offer great opportunities for tackling important, large-scale scientific questions. In this document we analyze from the viewpoint of

biomolecular applications the requirements for different Exascale aspects such as HPC architectures, software management, programming environments, I/O and storage etc. We discuss the near-term hardware developments in processors, network, and memory and I/O in the light of these requirements and we explain the impact that they will have on the core applications. Our findings are already well publicized among the European HPC stakeholders via several working groups which are involved in the development of the ETP4HPC Strategic Research Agenda and the PRACE Scientific Case, as well as the EXDCI (http://exdci.eu) project in which BioExcel is leading the Life Science working group.

Bio-molecular simulation scientists require effective and usable simulation

software that runs well on the hardware resources they can access now. The

development of these codes must also target the likely directions of future

hardware that we have learned from leading vendors and development consortia. This will ensure that the investment in Exascale-era technologies will deliver the expected benefits of improved bio-molecular simulations. These include supporting the design of new drugs, obtaining better understanding of biochemical pathways, and opening new doors for further innovation. This deliverable gives an overview of what we currently see as potential directions and then implementation plans for each of the pilot codes that will suit those directions.

description: In April and May 2015 Nepal suffered two massive earthquakes of 7.5 and 6 5 magnitudes in the Richter scale, killing 8856 and injuring 22309. Two years later in September 2017, Puerto Rico underwent the Category 5 Hurricane Maria, killing an estimate of 800 to 8000 people and displacing hundreds of thousands of Puerto Ricans (Kishore et al., 2018). This dissertation project is the comparative study of Nepal’s and Puerto Rico’s networked communities, their actors, participants (Potts, 2014), and the users (Ingraham, 2015; Johnson, 1998) who used crisis communication practices to address the havoc created by the disaster. Using a mixed-methods research approach and with framework created with the Assemblage Theory (DeLanda, 2016), I argue that disasters create situations in which various networked communities are formed into transnational assemblages along with an emergence of innovative digital technical and professional communication practices.
Increased Neural Activity in the Prefrontal Cortex During Fear Suppression to a Safety Signal

description: Persistent and maladaptive fear in the absence of a threat can be disruptive because it decreases an organism’s opportunity to seek life-sustaining substances. Learned safety signaling can suppress fear and encourage reward-seeking behavior, thus freeing the organism from fear induced immobilization. The infralimbic (IL) region of the prefrontal cortex is important for recalling fear extinction memories and for suppressing fear via learned safety signals. Neurons in the IL show an excitatory response to an extinguished fear cue. We thus hypothesized that neurons in the IL would encode safety by showing an excitatory response during active fear suppression to a learned safety signal. To assess global changes in IL activity, we monitored IL multi-unit activity to different cues while training animals in a fear-reward-safety discrimination task (Sangha, Chadick, & Janak, 2013). During the discrimination task, male rats learned that the reward cue predicted liquid sucrose, the fear cue predicted footshock and the joint presentation of both the fear and safety cues resulted in no footshock. We also counterbalanced the modality of fear and safety cues (auditory vs visual) with two separate groups of animals to control for potential sensory modality effects. Male rats showed high levels of freezing to the fear cue, and significantly reduced levels of freezing to the combined fear+safety cue. Male rats also showed high levels of port activity to the reward cue. There was no significant difference in the learning rate between the two counterbalanced conditions. Our multi-unit-data showed an increase in IL neuronal firing to the fear+safety cue across training sessions. This effect was consistent between the two counterbalanced conditions. We also examined single-unit activity from all animals that received light as the safety cue (n=8). This allowed us to examine the population response profile with a subset of the total animals. Although not statistically significant, our preliminary single-unit data demonstrated a decrease in the percentage of neurons that showed an inhibitory response to the fear+safety cue, but no change in the percentage of neurons that showed an excitatory response to the fear+safety cue. There was also no change in the magnitude of averaged firing rate in fear+safety excitatory or inhibitory neurons across training. Taken together, the decreased inhibition of single-unit activity in the IL may drive the increased excitation in multi-unit activity in the IL during behavioral fear suppression to a safety signal.

description: Maintaining wavefront stability while directly imaging exoplanets over long exposure times is an ongoing problem in the field of high-contrast imaging. Robust and efficient high-order wavefront sensing and control systems are required for maintaining wavefront stability to counteract mechanical and thermal instabilities. Dark zone maintenance (DZM) has been proposed to address quasi-static optical aberrations and maintain high levels of contrast for coronagraphic space telescopes. To further experimentally test this approach for future missions, such as the Habitable Worlds Observatory, this paper quantifies the differences between the theoretical closed-loop contrast bounds and DZM performance on the High-contrast Imager for Complex Aperture Telescopes(HiCAT) testbed. The quantification of DZM is achieved by traversing important parameters of the system, specifically the total direct photon rate entering the aperture of the instrument, ranging from $1.85 \times 10^6$ to $1.85 \times 10^8$ photons per second, and the wavefront error drift rate, ranging from $σ_{drift}$ = 0.3 - 3 $nm/\sqrt{iteration}$, injected via the deformable mirror actuators. This is tested on the HiCAT testbed by injecting random walk drifts using two Boston Micromachines kilo deformable mirrors (DMs). The parameter scan is run on the HiCAT simulator and the HiCAT testbed where the corresponding results are compared to the model-based theoretical contrast bounds to analyze discrepancies. The results indicate an approximate one and a half order of magnitude difference between the theoretical bounds and testbed results.
JASPAR: a comprehensive database of transcription factor binding profiles
Creators: name: Khan, Aziz
Publisher: name: F1000 Research Limited

description: JASPAR (http://jaspar.genereg.net) is an open-access database of curated and nonredundant transcription factor (TF)-binding profiles stored as position frequency matrices (PFMs) and TF flexible models (TFFMs) for TFs across species in six taxonomic groups. In the seventh release of JASPAR, we have updated and added 355 new PFMs and 316 TFFMs to the JASPAR CORE collection, representing ~30% and ~243% expansion, respectively. The JASPAR CORE collection now includes 1,404 non-redundant PFMs (579 for vertebrates, 489 for plants, 176 for fungi, 133 for insects, 26 for nematodes, and 1 for urochordata). Further, it contains 446 TFFMs (225 for vertebrates, 218 for plants and 3 for insects). Further, the 2018 release incorporates clusters of similar PFMs in each taxon and each TF class per taxon. Furthermore, we have used PFMs from JASPAR CORE collection to predict TF-binding sites in several species, which are available through UCSC and Ensembl Genome Browser track hubs. Finally, the current release comes with a new web framework with an interactive and responsive user-interface, along with a Representational State Transfer (REST) application programming interface (API) to access the JASPAR database programmatically. Additionally, we are planning to introduce community-based curation for profiles that were not added into JASPAR due to lack of experimental evidence from existing literature. We will encourage researchers to perform experiments and/or point us to literature that our curators missed in order to support these profiles. All the underlying data can be browsed and downloaded using the website and can be retrieved programmatically using the RESTful API (http://jaspar.genereg.net/api) and through the R/Bioconductor package.

description: Ordinary Devotion is a collection of essays that follows the narrator on a journey through different continents, countries, states, and cities in a search to find a place to settle and call home. The central questions interrogated include: what is home and what do we inherit from our homes? What does it mean to leave or to stay, and how can we connect with the history of a place and the problems individuals and cultures inherit from a place.

Through lyric essay, travel essay, natural history, memoir, and reportage, the essays are also an homage to the art of paying attention to the landscape of nature, politics, and people that surround our lives. It grapples with racism, sexism, ownership and debt, environmental destruction and land use, the concept of wilderness, tourism, curiosities, obsessions, romantic relationships, and personal journeys. In each essay, place is a central character that informs and pushes the narrative forward.

APPLICATIONS OF HIGH-THROUGHPUT PHENOTYPING IN SOYBEAN (Glycine max L. Merr) BREEDING

description: The rapid expansion of high-throughput phenotyping (HTP) platforms in agronomic research has led to a major shift in plant science towards time-series phenotyping that can track plant development through its life stages, providing an opportunity to dissect the genetic basis of longitudinal traits. Plant breeders can now phenotype large populations during the growing season and promote the desirable genetic gain for the traits of interest in specific time points within their breeding program. The biggest challenge is to use the various tools in a practical way to understand the many complexities of plant growth and development and breeding implications. This dissertation explores interdisciplinary frameworks to assess different applications of HTP for longitudinal traits in soybean breeding. We provide a review outlining the current analytical approaches in quantitative genetics and genomics to adequately use high-dimensional phenomic data. Examples, advantages, and pitfalls of each approach, and future research directions and opportunities are explored. Among longitudinal traits in soybean, average canopy coverage (ACC) and above-ground biomass (AGB) are promising traits to strategic improve yield gain. Soybean ACC is highly heritable, with a high genetic correlation to yield and can be effectively measured by unmanned aerial systems (UAS). This study reveals that progeny rows selection using yield given ACC (Yield|ACC) selected the most top-ranking lines in advanced yield trials, which emphasizes the value of HTP of ACC for selection in the early stages of soybean breeding. In addition, we developed a HTP methodology to predict soybean AGB over several days after planting (DAP) and assessed the quantitative genomic properties of temporal AGB using random regression models (RRM). Our results show that AGB narrow-sense heritability estimates fluctuated over time and the genetic correlation of AGB between DAP decreased as the days went further apart. Considering the trait heritability, high prediction accuracies suggest that AGB is a good indicator trait for genomic selection in soybean breeding. Different genomic regions were found to be associated with AGB over time with potential time-specific SNPs playing a role in the trait expression. Similarly, candidate genes were identified with potential different patterns of expression over time. This study presents novel genetic knowledge for longitudinal traits in soybean and may contribute to the development of new cultivars with high yield and optimized AGB. This is the first application of RRM for genomic evaluation of a longitudinal trait in soybean and provides a foundation that RRM can be an effective approach to understand the temporal genetic architecture of a longitudinal trait in other crops.

description: Acinetobacter baumannii is an important nosocomial pathogen. Upon colonizing a host, A. baumannii are subjected to selective pressure by immune defenses as they adapt to the host environment. However, the mechanism of this pathoadaptation is unknown. Here, we established an in vitro system to evolve A. baumannii driven by the continuous selective pressure exerted by epithelial cells, and we used a combination of experimental evolution, phenotypic characterization and multi-omics analysis to address the underlying mechanism. When continuously exposed to selective pressure by pulmonary epithelial cells, A. baumannii showed ptk mutation-mediated mucoid conversion (reduced adhesion and increased anti-phagocytic ability) by enhancement of capsular exopolysaccharide chain length; rsmG mutation-mediated deficiency of 7-methylguanosine modification in the 524th nucleotide of 16S rRNA, which increased ribosome translation efficiency; and rnaseI mutation-mediated changes in outer membrane permeability and efflux pump expression. Together, these mutations altered susceptibility to a variety of antimicrobial agents, including the novel antibiotic cefiderocol, by regulating siderophore and siderophore-receptor biosynthesis. In conclusion, pulmonary epithelial cells modulate A. baumannii pathoadaptation, implicating the host–microbe interaction in the survival and persistence of A. baumannii.

description: Normal healthy people are not susceptible to tuberculosis (TB) but immunocompromised and HIV positive patients are at high risk of TB. The treatment regimen (rifampin, isoniazid and amikacin) for TB patients is 6-9 months for normal patients but if Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) becomes multidrug resistant, it takes 20-30 months to treat. According to the World Health Organization in 2018, there were about half a million new cases among which 78% were multidrug resistant TB. This antibiotic resistance is due in part to its ability to survive in the macrophage in our body by entering a non-replicating persistent state. Mtb also contains efflux pumps that increase antibiotic tolerance by pumping out the drugs. Therefore, if the efflux pump activity can be blocked by using efflux pump inhibitors, then it might increase antibiotic susceptibility of the pathogen. In our study, we used Mycobacterium smegmatis (Msm) as a model organism for Mtb and subjected it to a combination of three stresses (low oxygen, low pH and low nutrients) that mimic the physiological stresses in the human body and report that these conditions produced a non-replicating state in Msm. This is the first report of the use of this combination of stresses to produce a non-replicating state in Msm. Our results show that non-replicating Msm became completely tolerant to isoniazid and displayed increased tolerance to rifampin and clarithromycin by nearly 2-fold when compared to log-phase cells. Moreover, the efflux pump inhibitor verapamil decreased the antibiotic tolerance of the nonreplicating Msm to the antibiotics by 6-10 fold and the efflux pump inhibitor piperine decreased tolerance to the antibiotics by 2-4 fold. Also, in this study we attempted to construct a gene knockout mutant lacking two potential ATP-binding cassette transporters to study their functions as drug exporters. However, we were unable to obtain homologous recombination mutants. Further studies on efflux pump inhibitors could potentially enable greater understanding of antibiotic tolerance mechanisms in non-replicating, drug tolerant Mtb and enable the development of novel therapies that shorten treatment time for tuberculosis.
