description: This paper explores the profound impact of oral folk tradition on the poetic works of the Karakalpak poet Berdimurat Qoblanov, widely known as Berdaq (1827–1900). His poetry serves as a bridge between oral and written traditions, reflecting a deep connection to folk songs, proverbs, and legends. Through a detailed analysis of his poetic style, this study examines how Berdaq preserved and revitalized national identity, ensuring that traditional motifs remained relevant in modern literary discourse. Moreover, the research highlights how Berdaq’s adaptation of oral elements contributed to the longevity and evolution of Karakalpak literature, influencing subsequent generations of poets. By incorporating new scholarly perspectives, this paper sheds light on the cultural and artistic significance of Berdaq’s poetry in the broader context of Central Asian literary traditions.

description: Obstacle detection, avoidance and path finding for autonomous vehicles requires precise information of the vehicle’s system environment for faultless navigation and decision making. As such vision and depth perception sensors have become an integral part of autonomous vehicles in the current research and development of the autonomous industry. The advancements made in vision sensors such as radars, Light Detection And Ranging (LIDAR) sensors and compact high resolution cameras is encouraging, however individual sensors can be prone to error and misinformation due to environmental factors such as scene illumination, object reflectivity and object transparency. The application of sensor fusion in a system, by the utilization of multiple sensors perceiving similar or relatable information over a network, is implemented to provide a more robust and complete system information and minimize the overall perceived error of thesystem. 3D LIDAR and monocular camera are the most commonly utilized vision sensors for the implementation of sensor fusion. 3D LIDARs boast a high accuracy and resolution for depth capturing for any given environment and have a broad range of applications such as terrain mapping and 3D reconstruction. Despite 3D LIDAR being the superior sensor for depth, the high cost and sensitivity to its environment make it a poor choice for mid-range application such as autonomous rovers, RC cars and robots. 2D LIDARs are more affordable, easily available and have a wider range of applications than 3D LIDARs, making them the more obvious choice for budget projects.The primary objective of this thesis is to implement a smart and robust sensor fusion system using 2D LIDAR and a stereo depth camera to capture depth and color information of an environment. The depth points generated by the LIDAR are fused with the depth map generated by the stereo camera by a Fuzzy system that implements smart fusion and corrects any gaps in the depth information of the stereo camera. The use of Fuzzy system for sensor fusion of 2D LIDAR and stereo camera is a novel approach to the sensor fusion problem and the output of the fuzzy fusion provides higher depth confidence than the individual sensors provide. In this thesis, we will explore the multiple layers of sensor and data fusion that have been applied to the vision system, both on the camera and lidar data individually and in relation to each other. We will go into detail regarding the development and implementation of fuzzylogic based fusion approach, the fuzzification of input data and the method of selection of the fuzzy system for depth specific fusion for the given vision system and how fuzzy logic can be utilized to provide information which is vastly more reliable than the information provided by the camera and LIDAR separately.

Year: 2025

description: This article examines the evolving linguistic norms shaped by sociocultural changes, particularly the growing emphasis on gender inclusivity and non-binary representation in language. A semantic analysis of gendered units enables the identification of implicit biases, asymmetries, and stereotypes embedded within linguistic structures, thereby supporting efforts to mitigate gender-based discrimination in communication. Furthermore, the study offers insights into the diachronic evolution of language, illustrating how gendered expressions have transformed over time in response to shifting societal dynamics.

description: Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) depend on mechanical deformation to sense their environment, enhance electrical circuitry, or store data. Nonlinear forces arising from multiphysics phenomena at the micro- and nanoscale -- van der Waals forces, electrostatic fields, dielectric charging, capillary forces, surface roughness, asperity interactions -- lead to challenging problems for analysis, simulation, and measurement of the deforming device elements. Herein, a foundation for the study of mechanical deformation is provided through computational and experimental studies of MEMS microcantilever capacitive switches. Numerical techniques are built to capture deformation equilibria expediently. A compact analytical model is developed from principle multiphysics governing operation. Experimental measurements support the phenomena predicted by the analytical model, and finite element method (FEM) simulations confirm device-specific performance. Altogether, the static multistability and quasistatic performance of the electrostatically-actuated switches are confirmed across analysis, simulation, and experimentation.
 The nonlinear multiphysics forces present in the devices are critical to the switching behavior exploited for novel applications, but are also a culprit in a common failure mode when the attractive forces overcome the restorative and repulsive forces to result in two elements sticking together. Quasistatic operation is functional for switching between multistable states during normal conditions, but is insufficient under such stiction-failure. Exploration of dynamic methods for stiction release is often the only option for many system configurations. But how and when is release achieved? To investigate the fundamental mechanism of dynamic release, an atomic force microscopy (AFM) system -- a microcantilever with a motion-controlled base and a single-asperity probe tip, measured and actuated via lasers -- is configured to replicate elements of a stiction-failed MEMS device. Through this surrogate, observable dynamic signatures of microcantilever deflection indicate the onset of detachment between the probe and a sample.

description: The recent progress of machine learning, driven by pervasive data and increasing computational power, has shown its potential to achieve higher robot autonomy. Yet, with too much focus on generic models and data-driven paradigms while ignoring inherent structures of control systems and tasks, existing machine learning methods typically suffer from data and computation inefficiency, hindering their public deployment onto general real-world robots. In this thesis work, we claim that the efficiency of autonomous robot learning can be boosted by two strategies. One is to incorporate the structures of optimal control theory into control-objective learning, and this leads to a series of control-induced learning methods that enjoy the complementary benefits of machine learning for higher algorithm autonomy and control theory for higher algorithm efficiency. The other is to integrate necessary human guidance into task and control objective learning, leading to a series of paradigms for robot learning with minimal human guidance on the loop.
The first part of this thesis focuses on the control-induced learning, where we have made two contributions. One is a set of new methods for inverse optimal control, which address three existing challenges in control objective learning: learning from minimal data, learning time-varying objective functions, and learning under distributed settings. The second is a Pontryagin Differentiable Programming methodology, which bridges the concepts of optimal control theory, deep learning, and backpropagation, and provides a unified end-to-end learning framework to solve a broad range of learning and control tasks, including inverse reinforcement learning, neural ODEs, system identification, model-based reinforcement learning, and motion planning, with data- and computation- efficient performance.
The second part of this thesis focuses on the paradigms for robot learning with necessary human guidance on the loop. We have made two contributions. The first is an approach of learning from sparse demonstrations, which allows a robot to learn its control objective function only from human-specified sparse waypoints given in the observation (task) space; and the second is an approach of learning fromhuman’s directional corrections, which enables a robot to incrementally learn its control objective, with guaranteed learning convergence, from human’s directional correction feedback while it is acting.

Effect of Angulation Between Multi-Unit Abutments on Accuracy of Photogrammetry Scanning
Creators: name: Andejani, Abdulelah
Publisher: name: University of Illinois Chicago
Year: 2025

description: A study to comparing the accuracy between analog elastomeric impressions and photogrammetry scanning utilized for full-arch implant supported prosthesis was conducted to investigate the clinical implications of misfit values in terms of 3-dimentional deviation and angular deviation. Furthermore, the effect of increased inter-abutment angulation between multiunit abutments was evaluated; the angulations evaluated were zero-degree, 10-degree, and 20-degree inter-abutment angulations. Using a reverse engineering software, and utilization of reference best-fit algorithms, conventional impression technique, PIC Dental Photogrammetry technique and ICam4D photogrammetry technique were compared.
 The accuracy determined via the 3-dimentional deviation and angular deviation were analyzed for each technique and for each of the three inter-abutment angulations. Conventional impressions scans exhibited lower deviation values compared to both photogrammetry techniques. Additionally, the increased inter-abutment angulation did not negatively affect the accuracy of the conventional impression samples. However, increased inter-abutment angulation had a variable effect on the accuracy of the photogrammetry scanning.
 The study emphasized that traditional impressions are more accurate for recording implant positions in full-arch implant-supported prostheses, while the photogrammetry techniques showed comparable accuracy influenced by the inter-abutment angulation. Differences observed between groups and other literature cited, can best be explained by the superior control of settings of the conventional impression technique, including setting time, polymerization shrinkage and thermal contraction of the dental materials used.

Subjects: Organic chemistry not elsewhere classified

description: Pathogens such as Listeria, Shigella, Brucella, Salmonella, Mycobacterium tuberculosis and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) can traverse into mammalian cells, such as phagocytic macrophages. Once inside, these bacteria can survive and reproduce, causing chronic infections. It is of utmost importance to develop novel antibiotics with broad spectrum activity to control these deadly bacteria. Broad spectrum activity will allow for targeting of pathogens with different structures and cell membrane components.This work focuses on the synthesis of a dual antibiotic agent, composed of a cationic amphiphilic polyproline helix (CAPH) possessing cell penetrating and nonmembrane lytic antimicrobial capabilities (P14LRR), and a derivative of the polymyxin B (PMX) antibacterial peptide. This dual antibiotic conjugate was created to be a tool to potentially clear intracellular pathogenic bacteria. Overall, the reduction of the disulfide bond linking the two antibiotics within the reducing environment of cells would release the individual antimicrobial agents, and could have improved cell membrane penetration and intracellular synergistic activity. Herein, the synthesis of the dual antibiotic agent, P14LRR-PMX, is discussed.

Biosynthesis, Transcriptional Modulation, and Antibiotic Antidote Effect of Pseudovibriamides
Creators: name: Dai, Yitao
Publisher: name: University of Illinois Chicago
Year: 2025

description: Pseudovibrio α-Proteobacteria, frequently isolated from marine sponges, are hypothesized to benefit their hosts. A highly conserved hybrid nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS)-polyketide synthase (PKS) gene cluster in Pseudovibrio spp., termed the ppp biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC), encodes the production of pseudovibriamides. Using reverse genetics and genetic complementation, we assigned functions to specific biosynthetic genes and defined the boundaries of the ppp BGC. Pseudovibriamide A is a linear heptapeptide and pseudovibriamide B is a nonadepsipeptide derived from pseudovibriamide A and pseudovibriamide C. Then, we report roles of pseudovibriamides in Pseudovibrio brasiliensis Ab134. We tested the hypothesis that pseudovibriamides modulate bacterial motility by influencing gene transcription. RNA-seq analysis of strains producing different pseudovibriamide compositions indicated that pseudovibriamides A and B regulate genes beyond those associated with motility, with pseudovibriamide B primarily promoting gene activation and pseudovibriamide A exerting inhibitory effects. This interplay suggests a compensatory mechanism in strains producing only pseudovibriamide A, as these strains exhibit flagellar motility comparable to the wild type. A differentially expressed LuxR-family regulator may contribute to the motility and transcriptional differences observed between strains producing different pseudovibriamide compositions. Furthermore, we demonstrated that pseudovibriamides selectively antagonize the antibiotic blasticidin S, highlighting their potential as antibiotic antidotes. This work enhances the understanding of the ecological roles of pseudovibriamides and provides insights into the broader applications of marine microbial natural products.

AN IN-DEPTH ANALYSIS OF THE TEACHER TALK THAT OCCURS DURING INTEGRATED STEM UNITS
Creators: name: Bogan, Valarie L
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2021
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Teacher talk is a powerful pedagogical tool in the science classroom. Educators use their talk to provide information, guide discussions, check for understanding, and develop students' scientific identities. However, few researchers have investigated how teachers use their talk during an integrated science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) unit. This three-study dissertation investigates how teachers use their talk to introduce a new discipline to students and how their talk affects student learning and engagement during an integrated STEM unit. I designed these research studies to answer the overall question: What talk moves do teachers use during an integrated STEM unit, and how does the teacher talk affect student engagement and learning? Study 1 is a multiple case study investigating how teachers guide classroom discussions and how that teacher talk affects student learning during the integrated STEM unit. Results demonstrate the importance of teachers carefully balancing dialogic discussions and providing information during these instructional units. Study 2 is an interpretative qualitative study that investigates how a teacher's autonomy-supportive and/or suppressive talk affects student engagement during the integrated unit. Results show that each student responded differently to the teacher talk that occurred in the classroom. While some became more engaged when the teacher used autonomy-supportive talk, others became disengaged during the same type of talk. Study 3 is a multiple case study investigating the talk moves teachers use when integrating engineering concepts in the curriculum. Results show that the two teachers requested student participation in the conversation about engineering more during the first lesson of the unit than the last. In addition, only one of the two teachers in this study incorporated talk about engineering into the science lessons. The last chapter of this dissertation synthesizes the data from all three studies. This chapter identifies some common themes across the studies, including the complex nature of teacher talk, the influence of non-talk factors, and the importance of dialogic discussion. This chapter also identifies some implications for teaching, including the need to restructure the curriculum units and to coach teachers during their first implementation of an integrated STEM unit.

description: Chociaż idee demokratyczne stanowiły przedmiot zainteresowania chińskich intelektualistów co najmniej od II połowy XIX wieku to czas Ruchu Nowej Kultury (Xinwenhua Yudong) i Ruchu 4 Maja (Wusi Yundong) stanowi niewątpliwie okres o szczególnym znaczeniu w dziejach historii ich recepcji w Chinach. Celem tego artykułu jest przedstawienie kontekstu, w jakim w czasie Ruchu Nowej Kultury oraz Ruchu Czwartego Maja (Wusi Yundong) dokonywana była recepcja idei demokratycznych przez chińskich intelektualistów, ukazanie w jaki sposób rozumieli oni i posługiwali się pojęciem demokracji, a także próba oceny znaczenia tego epizodu w dziejach historii chińskiej myśli politycznej.
description: Although democratic ideas were present in Chinese intellectual discourse since at least second half of nineteenth century, times of New Culture Movement (Xinwenhua Yudong) and Fourth May Movement are period of special importance in history of their reception in China. The purpose of this article is to present context in which reception of democratic ideas by Chinese intellectuals during New Culture Movement and May Fourth Movement took place, show how they understood and used term „democracy” and attempt to judge importance of this episode in history of Chinese political thought.

description: For pedestrians and autonomous vehicles (AVs) to co-exist harmoniously and safely in the real-world, AVs will need to not only react to pedestrian actions, but also anticipate their intentions. In this thesis, we propose to use rich visual and pedestrian-environment interaction features to improve pedestrian crossing intention prediction from the ego-view. We do so by combining visual feature extraction, graph modeling of scene objects and their relationships, and feature encoding as comprehensive inputs for an LSTM encoder-decoder network. Pedestrians react and make decisions based on their surrounding environment, and the behaviors of other road users around them. The human-human social relationship has already been explored for pedestrian trajectory prediction from the bird’s eye view in stationary cameras. However, context and pedestrian-environment relationships are often missing in current research into pedestrian trajectory, and intention prediction from the ego-view. To map the pedestrian’s relationship to its surrounding objects we use a star graph with the pedestrian in the center connected to all other road objects/agents in the scene. The pedestrian and road objects/agents are represented in the graph through visual features extracted using state of the art deep learning algorithms. We use graph convolutional networks, and graph autoencoders to encode the star graphs in a lower dimension. Using the graph en- codings, pedestrian bounding boxes, and human pose estimation, we propose a novel model that predicts pedestrian crossing intention using not only the pedestrian’s action behaviors (bounding box and pose estimation), but also their relationship to their environment. Through tuning hyperparameters, and experimenting with different graph convolutions for our graph autoencoder, we are able to improve on the state of the art results. Our context- driven method is able to outperform current state of the art results on benchmark dataset Pedestrian Intention Estimation (PIE). The state of the art is able to predict pedestrian crossing intention with a balanced accuracy (to account for dataset imbalance) score of 0.61, while our best performing model has a balanced accuracy score of 0.79. Our model especially outperforms in no crossing intention scenarios with an F1 score of 0.56 compared to the state of the art’s score of 0.36. Additionally, we also experiment with training the state of the art model and our model to predict pedestrian crossing action, and intention jointly. While jointly predicting crossing action does not help improve crossing intention prediction, it is an important distinction to make between predicting crossing action versus intention.

description: Background
Septic arthritis (SA) presents a complex clinical challenge, often resulting in significant morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to (1) assess overall mortality rates and (2) identify potential factors contributing to increased mortality risk in patients with SA.

Methods
This retrospective study on SA patients treated at a German university hospital between January 1, 2011, and December 31, 2021. Patients were identified using International Classification of Diseases (ICD)-10 codes for septic arthritis, specifically “M00.-”. The study evaluated mortality rates and analyzed comorbidities, pathogens, and other potential risk factors. Kaplan–Meier survival curves and odds ratios (OR) were calculated to assess mortality risk.

Results
In a cohort of 192 patients diagnosed with SA, 64 patients (33.3%) died during a mean follow-up period of 54.4 ± 42 months. The overall mortality rate was 17.5% at one year, 19.9% at two years, and 28.3% at five years. Patients aged 65 years or older, as well as those with arterial hypertension, congestive heart failure, chronic renal disease, chronic liver disease, malignancy, steroid use and immunosuppression showed significantly higher mortality rates (p < 0.05). Chronic renal disease (OR = 2.80), malignancy (OR = 3.40), and chronic heart failure (OR = 2.62) were identified as significant notably risk factors for mortality.

Conclusion
This study highlights a notably high mortality rate among vulnerable patients with SA, particularly those with pre-existing comorbidities. Recognizing and addressing these risk factors early could improve patient outcomes. These results unterscore the need for close monitoring of SA patients, particularly those with chronic organ conditions, and timely intervention for sepsis to reduce mortality risk.
