description: This study examined digital business models, entrepreneurship, and supply chain management in selected small and medium enterprises in Anambra State, Nigeria. The specific objectives were to determine the relationship between mobile commerce and lead time reduction as well as investigate the relationship between networking and inventory turnover in small and medium enterprises in Anambra State, Nigeria. The population of the study was 150 owners of small and medium enterprises in Anambra State. The hypotheses were tested with the Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient in Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). Findings showed a statistically significant positive relationship between mobile commerce and lead time reduction, it further revealed a positive relationship between networking and inventory turnover among small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Anambra State. This study conclusively established a strong, statistically significant positive relationship between digital business models, entrepreneurship, and effective supply chain management among small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Anambra State, Nigeria. It was recommended that Anambra State SMEs need to adopt mobile commerce by integrating mobile payments, logistics tracking, and e-commerce platforms to reduce lead times and boost efficiency. Also, Anambra State SMEs need to cultivate strategic networking through conferences, workshops, and industry associations to enhance inventory turnover and boost business performance.

description: Global-scale surface soil moisture (SSM) products retrieved from active and passive microwave remote sensing provide an effective method for monitoring near-real-time SSM content with nearly daily temporal resolution. In the present study, we first inter-compared global-scale error patterns and combined the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP), Advanced Scatterometer (ASCAT), and Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2 (AMSR2) SSM products using a triple collocation (TC) analysis and the maximized Pearson correlation coefficient (R) method from April 2015 to December 2016. The Global Land Data Assimilation System (GLDAS) and global in situ observations were utilized to investigate and to compare the quality of satellite-based SSM products. The average R-values of SMAP, ASCAT, and AMSR2 were 0.74, 0.64, and 0.65 when they compared with in situ networks, respectively. The ubRMSD values were (0.0411, 0.0625, and 0.0708) m3 m− 3; and the bias values were (− 0.0460, 0.0010, and 0.0418) m3 m− 3 for SMAP, ASCAT, and AMSR2, respectively. The highest average R-values from SMAP against the in situ results are very encouraging; only SMAP showed higher R-values than GLDAS in several in situ networks with low ubRMSD (0.0438 m3 m− 3). Overall, SMAP showed a dry bias (− 0.0460 m3 m− 3) and AMSR2 had a wet bias (0.0418 m3 m− 3); while ASCAT showed the least bias (0.0010 m3 m− 3) among all the products. Each product was evaluated using TC metrics with respect to the different ranges of vegetation optical depth (VOD). Under vegetation scarce conditions (VOD < 0.10), such as desert and semi-desert regions, all products have difficulty obtaining SSM information. In regions with moderately vegetated areas (0.10 < VOD < 0.40), SMAP showed the highest Signal-to-Noise Ratio. Over highly vegetated regions (VOD > 0.40) ASCAT showed comparatively better performance than did the other products. Using the maximized R method, SMAP, ASCAT, and AMSR2 products were combined one by one using the GLDAS dataset for reference SSM values. When the satellite products were combined, R-values of the combined products were improved or degraded depending on the VOD ranges produced, when compared with the results from the original products alone. The results of this study provide an overview of SMAP, ASCAT, and AMSR2 reliability and the performance of their combined products on a global scale. This study is the first to show the advantages of the recently available SMAP dataset for effective merging of different satellite products and of their application to various hydro-meteorological problems.

description: Recently, andrographolide, kaempferol, maslinic acid, rutin, and schaftoside have been identified as potent SARS-CoV-2 main protease (Mpro) inhibitors via molecular docking studies. However, no comprehensive in vitro testing of these compounds against Mpro has been conducted. In this study, we rigorously evaluated the in vitro inhibition of Mpro by these compounds using combinational experiments, including fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), fluorescence polarization (FP), and dimerization-dependent red fluorescent protein (ddRFP) assays. Our data revealed that these compounds are not Mpro inhibitors based on the results from a set of in vitro assays. These results suggest that an efficient combination of a molecular docking approach and an experimental assay is essential for the discovery of Mpro inhibitors in the future.

description: We prove that the Dirichlet problem for the Lane-Emden equation in a half-space has no positive solution which is monotone in the normal direction. As a consequence, this problem does not admit any positive classical solution which is bounded on finite strips. This question has a long history and our result solves a long-standing open problem. Such a nonexistence result was previously available only for bounded solutions, or under a restriction on the power in the nonlinearity. The result extends to general convex nonlinearities.

title: Effect size estimation in clinical trials with repeated measures
Creators: name: Shawli, Alaa Saddik
Publisher: name: University of Reading
Year: 2023

description: There is growing awareness of the importance of effect sizes in clinical trials. Effect
sizes determine the practical significance of results and play an important role in
power analysis and meta-analysis. While effect size estimation methods have been
extensively studied within the univariate domain, comparatively estimating effect
sizes in trials with multivariate responses such as repeated measures has received
little attention in the literature. In addition, univariate effect sizes are inadequate for
quantifying overall group differences in multivariate data. Although there are a few
effect size indices that are appropriate for a repeated measures design, the reporting of
effect sizes presents a challenge since some are either difficult to calculate or interpret,
or are relatively uncommon. In this thesis, novel measures of overall effect size in a
repeated measures design, which are consistent and efficient and explicitly account
for the correlation structure that is inherent in multivariate responses, are developed
and evaluated.
Additionally, the accuracy, precision and efficiency of the proposed effect sizes are
compared with common effect sizes for repeated measures from two different families, standardised mean difference and proportion of variance explained, via extensive
simulation studies. Results from across a wide range of conditions revealed that
the proposed effect sizes compare favourably. In particular, they outperformed all
other effect sizes in trials involving small sample sizes or small population effect sizes
while the common existing effect sizes can produce inaccurate or inefficient inference.
The proposed effect sizes are easy to calculate and interpret, and are comparable
across studies to facilitate meta-analysis. Furthermore, extensive simulation evaluation show that the proposed effect sizes are robust against variance heterogeneity.
The proposed effect sizes provide a more trust worthy measure of overall effect size
and are recommended for further use.

description: This work presents the biocidal effects and chemical compositions of two essential oils (EOs) obtained by hydrodistillation of Eucalyptus flocktoniae subsp. flocktoniae and E. flocktoniae subsp. hebes. The two subspecies studied had different chemical composition, when analysed by gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry with 1,8-cineole (56.98%), trans-pinocarveol (20.38%) and α-pinene (5.86%) being the major components of E. flocktoniae subsp. flocktoniae and spathulenol (25.09%), p-cymene (21.20%), 1,8-cineole (10.74%) and α-pinene (8.93%) are the major components of E. flocktoniae subsp. hebes. These oils were evaluated for their insect antifeedant, nematicidal and phytotoxic activities. The biocidal tests showed that E. flocktoniae subsp. hebes was the most active against Myzus persicae and Rhopalosiphum padi. While, E. flocktoniae subsp. flocktoniae was not antifeedant. None of the investigated EOs were active against both Spodoptera littoralis and Meloidogyne javanica root-knot nematode. Moreover, the EOs extracted from these two subspecies showed a significant phytotoxic effect.

description: In this study, five essential oils (EOs) from different species of Lavandula hybrida abrialis, for Lavandula hybrida R.C., Lavandula hybrida ‘super A’, Lavandula hybrida ‘super Z’ and Lavandula vera and its hybrids Lavender were evaluated against 26 dust-isolated fungal strains from North Africa. The composition of the different EOs was determined from volume to dry weight. The photochemical analyses were performed via gas chromatography (GC). The cytotoxic effect of five lavender EOs on human epithelial colorectal adenocarcinoma cells (Caco-2) cell line was done. A total of 26 strains of filamentous fungi including Aspergillus spp., Botrytis cinerea, Ceriporia spp., Fusarium spp. and Penicillium glabrum were isolated from sand dust samples via molecular diagnostic tool of PCR. Fungal strains with the lowest minimal lethal concentration (MLC) were Penicillium glabrum, Ceriporia spp. and a strain of Aspergillus spp. More studies are needed to verify the activity of this EO against more different fungal species, and determine the active ingredients. Significance and impact of study: MIC of the antifungal efficacy relating to EOs was evaluated. The EOs tests showed no cytotoxic effect at very low concentrations, ranging from 0.03% (IC50 0.9132 mg/mL) (L. hybrid Abrialis) to 0.001% (IC50 1.631 mg/mL) (L. hybrid R.C.).

description: The chemical composition, antifungal, antibiofilm, and molecular docking studies of the essential oil obtained from Lindera caesia were investigated. A total of thirty-nine components (96.7%) were identified using gas chromatography (GC-FID) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The major components included terpinen-4-ol (26.3%), neo-intermedeol (23.2%), eudesma-4,11-dien-3-one (10.4%), and o-cymene (5.3%). The antifungal activity was tested against Candida albicans and Streptococcus mutans using the broth microdilution assay, whereas the microbial biofilms were determined using a semi-quantitative static biofilm. The essential oil exhibited activity against C. albicans (MIC 125 µg/mL) and S. mutans (MIC 250 µg/mL), and increased the biofilm of C. albicans by 31.25% when treated with 500 µg/mL. The molecular docking study shows neo-intermedeol, eudesma-4,11-dien-3-one, α-selinene, and β-selinene as the good candidate to target Erg11 with a binding energy of −7.3 kcal/mol. These findings demonstrated that the essential oil may have potential in dental application for caries prevention.

description: This study investigated a wide range of bioactive compounds in bulb and shoot of Allium longisepalum Bertol. from Iran. The organs were first extracted with methanol, followed by hexane, dichloromethane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, and butanol, and phytochemicals in fractions were analysed using GC/MS. Butanol exhibited the highest yield percentages in both organs. Palmitic and oleic acid were found in all fractions, while heptadecene-(8)-carboxylic acid, stearic acid, and myristic acid were detected in at least three fractions. Each fraction contained exclusively unique metabolites found only in itself. Hexane, dichloromethane, and chloroform fractions contained specific metabolites with potential antioxidant, allelopathic, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory effects. Ethyl acetate and butanol fractions revealed significant compounds that have potential in terms of their anticarcinogenic, anti-inflammatory, hair growth-enhancing, and antimicrobial properties, in addition to containing compounds not previously identified in plants. The study analyzes bioactive compound profiles in A. longisepalum, highlighting its chemical diversity and therapeutic potential.

description: Despite the many advances in drug research, natural products are still being explored as a promising source for discovering new bioactive compounds to treat global diseases such as tuberculosis. However, there is a lack of studies and information about coastal natural products, which thrive in the transitional environment between two different ecosystems and produce unique secondary metabolites. Mangroves, estuaries, and mudflats make up areas for coastal species and have shown promising results in antituberculosis research, some of them are present in hotspot areas. This review focuses on research conducted in coastal environments and explores the reasons why these natural products tend to outperform non-coastal ones against the causative agent of tuberculosis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Reading (between) the lines: Individual differences in emotion processing of native- and foreign-accented speech
Creators: Assefa, Elizabeth
Publisher: name: University of Alberta Library
Year: 2024

Previous literature on foreign-accented speech processing indicates the presence of an accent can influence perception and comprehension across multiple levels of language processing, but emotion inferencing appears to remain as one unexplored area in this context. To our knowledge, this research is the first of its kind to investigate whether differences exist in emotion processing of native- and foreign-accented speech, and if so, whether these differences are modulated by listener personality traits. This study utilized short constructed narratives that implied the emotional state of a character who was described as either a native or non-native speaker. Participants read the narratives then rated the emotional valence of the speaker using a Likert-type scale. Personality traits were recorded using the HEXACO Personality Inventory and the Wilson-Patterson Conservatism Scale (W-P). The results suggested that certain participant personality traits influenced emotion perceptions rather than the speaker’s accent. In the context of negative stories, lower Openness to Experience led to less negative emotion interpretations, while higher Conscientiousness led to more negative emotion interpretations. These findings highlight the relevance of individual differences in emotion processing and, while an accent effect was not found, future exploration into this area of study with foreign accents is still encouraged.

Singularity formation and regularization at multiple times in the viscous Hamilton-Jacobi equation

description: The Cauchy-Dirichlet pbm for the superquadratic viscous Hamilton-Jacobi eqn (VHJ), which has important applications in stochastic control theory, admits a unique, global viscosity solution. Sol. thus exist in the weak sense after appearance of singularity in finite time, which occurs through gradient blow-up (GBU) on the boundary. Whereas theory of visc. sol. has been extensively studied and applied to many PDEs, there are less results on refined behavior of sol. In particular, detailed behavior of visc. sol. of VHJ after GBU has remained mostly open.
 Here, in general dim., for each $m\ge 1$ we construct sol. which undergo GBU and LBC at least at $m$ times and then recover regularity, as well as sol. that exhibit GBU without LBC at 1st blowup time. In 1d, we obtain the complete classification of visc. sol. at each time, which extends to radial cases in higher d. Furthermore for each $m\ge 2$ and arbitrarily given combination of GBU types with/without LBC at $m$ times in arbitrarily given order, we show exist. of a sol. with this exact combination of GBU. Some sol. display a new type of behavior called "bouncing".
 Global weak sol. of VHJ with multiple time singularity turn out to display larger variety of behaviors than for the Fujita eqn. We introduce a method based on an arbitrary number of critical parameters, whose continuity requires a delicate argument. Since we do not rely on any known special sol. unlike in Fujita eqn, our method is expected to apply to other eqns.
 Singular behaviors at multiple times are completely new in the context of VHJ but also of stochastic control theory. In this framework our results imply that for certain spatial distributions of rewards, if a controled Brownian particle starts near the boundary, then the net gain attains profitable values on different time horizons but not on some intermediate times.

description: Knowledge has long been identified as an inherent component of agents' decision-making in distributed systems. However, for agents in fault-tolerant distributed systems with fully byzantine agents, achieving knowledge is, in most cases, unrealistic. If agents can both lie and themselves be mistaken, then a message received is generally not sufficient to create knowledge. This problem is adequately addressed by an epistemic modality named hope, which has already been axiomatized. In this paper, we propose an alternative complete axiomatization for the hope modality by removing the reliance on designated atoms denoting correctness of individual agents and show that hope can be described as a KB4_n system. This additionally bringsa more streamlined presentation of the common hope modality (the hope analog of common knowledge). We also combine KB4_n hope modalities with S5_n knowledge modalities traditionally used in the epistemic analysis of fault-free distributed systems and present a logic enriched with both common knowledge and common hope. In these logics we formalize as frame-characterizable axioms some of the main properties of fully byzantine distributed systems: bounds on the number of faulty agents and the epistemic limitations due to agents' inability to rule out brain-in-a-vat scenarios.

description: This study aimed to investigate the chemical composition and toxicity of methanolic extracts of three Algerian propolis collected from Oum el Bouaghi (MEPO), El Harrouch (MEPH) and Collo (MEPC) regions. The chemical profile was characterised by GC-MS. The toxicity of the extracts was tested using brine shrimp model. The GC-MS analysis revealed the presence of ferulic acid (23.8%), pinostrobin chalcone (15.8%) and α-eudesmol (11.3%) as major compounds in MEPO, pinostrobin chalcone (22.2%), 9-octadecenoic acid, methyl ester, (E)- (17.4%), and γ-gurjunenepoxide-(2) (11.7%) were the most abundant components in MEPH, whereas MEPC was dominated by 1-heptatriacotanol (17.8%), pinostrobin chalcone (14.7%), totarol (13.7%) and 9-octadecenoic acid, methyl ester, (E)- (13.0%). The brine shrimp lethality test indicated that the extracts had moderate toxicity in which MEPC exhibited the highest activity with LC50 of 201.61 ± 7.27 µg/mL. All extracts showed no toxicity at 25 µg/mL concentration and below.
A Unified Temporal Field Theory: From Mass and Spacetime Geometry to Quantum Coherence and Cosmological Expansion
Creators: name: Anwar, Morgan
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: Abstract

We propose a unified theoretical framework in which mass, gravity, cosmic expansion, and quantum correlations all emerge from a single fundamental entity: a dynamic temporal field . This scalar-tensor field evolves locally and cosmologically, and serves as the generator of particle masses via intrinsic quantum time cycles, the driver of spacetime curvature through a tensor formulation , and a mediator of quantum coherence through temporal synchronization. The model provides derivations for the Planck constant, the arrow of time, and known mass ratios, predicts cosmic expansion without invoking dark energy, and reproduces observational signatures consistent with Type Ia supernova data. It also explains chirality in energy spectra and proposes a novel mechanism for entanglement degradation. The resulting theory integrates general relativity, quantum field principles, and cosmological observations under a single, testable temporal field structure.

description: There is little data on the phytochemical/pharmacological properties of Erica spiculifolia Salisb. (syn. Bruckentalia spiculifolia (Salisb.) Rchb.). This study examines the antioxidative and anti-inflammatory activities of different extracts and fractions of E. spiculifolia in vitro on isolated rat peritoneal macrophages, in the carrageenan-induced rat paw oedema test, BSA test, and two complementary antioxidant assays. Ethanolic extracts of leaves, flowers, and aboveground parts, and petroleum ether, ether, ethyl acetate, and water fractionations of the ethanol extract of E. spiculifolia applied at doses of 50–200 mg/kg p.o. exhibited dose-dependent anti-inflammatory activity comparable with indomethacin. All tested samples, except for the petroleum ether fraction, exerted excellent in vitro antioxidant activity, and all of them exhibited significant and similar inhibition of BSA denaturation comparable with diclofenac. Ethanolic extract of the aboveground parts obtained by percolation, ethyl acetate and water fractions had the highest efficiency, attenuating inflammation by more than 50% in the lowest applied concentration alongside exceptional radical scavenging activity.

description: Essential oils (EOs) have been investigated for their effectiveness against fungal fruit pathogens. The present review article summarises the EOs that inhibit Alternaria alternata and Colletotrichum gloeosporioides in the pre- and post-harvest stages of fruits. Thirty-nine scientific papers focusing on the extraction conditions and the antifungal activity of EOs were selected. The retrieved studies came mainly from China and Brazil. Hydrodistillation has been identified as the most used extractive method. The yields and chemical profiles were variable among the species. The in vitro studies were larger than the in vivo studies. The application of EOs reduced the incidence of fungal diseases in tomatoes (Lycopersicon esculentum), papaya (Carica papaya) and mango (Mangifera indica). EOs resulted as a potential ecological alternative for treating fungal diseases in fruits requiring further investigation.

description: Robots are becoming increasingly utilized in the agricultural industry for a variety of tasks such as harvesting, planting, disease detection, and plant treatment. However, there is a considerable gap when it comes to using soil analysis, even though it is essential for farmers to have good crops. Existing laboratory soil analysis processes are laborious and time-consuming for farmers, and robotic systems are usually expensive due to the cost of sensors and other components. To address this, a low-cost, mobile robot for soil analysis was developed. In the first step, an edge device with a camera that runs an AI model was integrated. One of the primary advantages of this system is that the whole sensor and camera combination for measurement is easily adaptable to any other existing mobile robot, and the overall cost of the measuring system including the edge device is less than 100 euros. Our first results regarding soil classification are promising with an accuracy of up to 90% during real-time classification. The next step is the integration of an NPK and PH level analysis within the AI model comparing it to the real-time measurement of an NPK sensor that goes into the soil. The ultimate goal at the end is to create an edge computing device: EdgeSoil that performs soil analysis just with a camera, adaptable to any agricultural robotic system.

description: Observations show that supermassive black holes (SMBHs) with a mass of $\sim10^9 M_\odot$ exist when the Universe is just $6\%$ of its current age. We propose a scenario where a self-interacting dark matter halo experiences gravothermal instability and its central region collapses into a seed black hole. The presence of baryons in protogalaxies could significantly accelerate the gravothermal evolution of the halo and shorten collapse timescales. The central halo could dissipate its angular momentum remnant via viscosity induced by the self-interactions. The host halo must be on high tails of density fluctuations, implying that high-$z$ SMBHs are expected to be rare in this scenario. We further derive conditions for triggering general relativistic instability of the collapsed region. Our results indicate that self-interacting dark matter can provide a unified explanation for diverse dark matter distributions in galaxies today and the origin of SMBHs at redshifts $z\sim6-7$.

Content type and perceived multimedia quality in mobile learning
Creators: name: Molnar, Andreea
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: The increased usage of mobile devices for learning purposes raises several concerns regarding how this adaptation affects learning and perceived quality of educational content across different screen resolutions. This research looks into how educational content type and video adaptation affect the perceived quality of multimedia educational content on two different mobile devices. We consider seven different categories of educational content: slideshow, screencast, presentation, lab demo, interview, documentary, and animation. The results show that the participants could learn regardless of the video content type and the adapted version of the video. We found no statistical significant difference between the perceived quality of the highest quality video and the lower quality video for two of the categories (lab demo and interview) and statistical significant difference on the remaining ones. The implications of this study are also discussed.
