description: A computational graph in a deep neural network (DNN) denotes a specific data flow diagram (DFD) composed of many tensors and operators. Existing toolkits for visualizing computational graphs are not applicable when the structure is highly complicated and large-scale (e.g., BERT [1]). To address this problem, we propose leveraging a suite of visual simplification techniques, including a cycle-removing method, a module-based edge-pruning algorithm, and an isomorphic subgraph stacking strategy. We design and implement an interactive visualization system that is suitable for computational graphs with up to 10 thousand elements. Experimental results and usage scenarios demonstrate that our tool reduces 60% elements on average and hence enhances the performance for recognizing and diagnosing DNN models. Our contributions are integrated into an open-source DNN visualization toolkit, namely, MindInsight [2].

description: When an iron-based nanocrystalline soft magnetic alloy is ingested in a human body, the blood becomes a homogeneous electronic liquid. Blood vessels become wires, first thicker, then thinner. It emits electromagnetic waves. The antenna transmits the same signal and remains connected. The blood capillary of the same organ has a fixed curved shape. Another feature is that the electrons roll forward in a cavity of a fixed shape. Using the electrons on the magnetic nano-iron atoms with low coercivity, electromagnetic waves can be emitted to the electrons, thus reducing the amplitude of the original rolling motion. Can also be strengthened. You can let it carry other vibration ways to roll. You can repeat this vibration many times.

description: Osteoarthritis is the most common joint disease worldwide. In the advanced stage the disease is characterised by joint pain and loss of joint functionality. In the Robert Koch Institute’s GEDA 2014/2015-EHIS health interview survey, 17.9% of adults over 18 reported having suffered from osteoarthritis during the past twelve months, whereby prevalence for women (21.8%) was higher than for men (13.9%). Osteoarthritis becomes more common with age. Among those aged 65 and over, around half of all women (48.1%) and nearly one third of men (31.2%) are affected. Due to population ageing, the prevalence of osteoarthritis in Germany can be expected to increase further in the future.

description: Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disease associated with increased bone fragility, which correspondingly leads to increased bone fractures. In the GEDA 2014/2015-EHIS survey, 7.8% of women and 2.0% of men aged 18 and over reported suffering from osteoporosis during the past 12 months. The share of people reporting osteoporosis increases considerably in the age group 65 and over. Elder women significantly more often report osteoporosis than men. As this was the first time the present indicator for the 12-month prevalence of osteoporosis was evaluated in the context of the European Health Interview Survey (EHIS) 2014/2015, there is no comparative data available.

description: We analyzed 39 ks NuSTAR observation data of the high mass X-ray binary Cen X-3 in order to investigate the orbital- and spin-phase spectral variability. The observation covers the orbital phase of $Φ=0.199$-$0.414$ of the source, where $Φ=0$ corresponds to the mid-eclipse. The orbital-phase-resolved spectroscopy revealed that low energy photons are more dominant for the spectral fluctuation, and a large part of the variability can be explained in terms of absorption by clumps of stellar wind. The spin-phase-resolved spectroscopy together with energy-resolved pulse profiles, on the other hand, presented large flux variations in high energy bands, which suggests that the origin of the variability is the different efficiency of Comptonization inside the accretion column. The energy band which includes Fe emission lines or cyclotron resonance scattering feature (CRSF) shows distinct variability compared to the nearby bands. The Fe lines show low variability along the spin phase, which indicates that the emission regions are apart from the neutron star. The central energy and strength of the CRSF are both positively correlated with the spin-phase-resolved flux, which suggests that the emitted photons face stronger magnetic fields and deeper absorption when they come from high-flux regions. We also examined the independence of the orbital- and spin-phase variability. They showed no correlation with each other and were highly independent, which implies the accretion stream is stable during the observation.

description: We present new measurements of the velocity dispersions of eleven Local Group globular clusters using spatially integrated spectra, to expand our sample of clusters with precise integrated-light velocity dispersions to 29, over 4 different host galaxies. This sample allows us to further our investigation of the stellar mass function among clusters, with a particular emphasis on a search for the driver of the apparent bimodal nature of the inferred stellar initial mass function. We confirm our previous result that clusters fall into two classes. If, as we argue, this behavior reflects a variation in the stellar initial mass function, the cause of that variation is not clear. The variations do not correlate with formation epoch as quantified by age, metallicity quantified by $[ {\rm Fe/H}] $, host galaxy, or internal structure as quantified by velocity dispersion, physical size, relaxation time, or luminosity. The stellar mass-to-light ratios, $Υ_*$, of the high and low $Υ_*$ cluster populations are well-matched to those found in recent studies of early and late type galaxies, respectively.

description: The atomic theory of elasticity of amorphous solids, based on the nonaffine response formalism, is extended into the nonlinear stress-strain regime by coupling with the underlying irreversible many-body dynamics. The latter is implemented in compact analytical form using a qualitative method for the many-body Smoluchowski equation. The resulting nonlinear stress-strain (constitutive) relation is very simple, with few fitting parameters, yet contains all the microscopic physics. The theory is successfully tested against experimental data on metallic glasses, and it is able to reproduce the ubiquitous feature of stress-strain overshoot upon varying temperature and shear rate. A clear atomic-level interpretation is provided for the stress overshoot, in terms of the competition between the elastic instability caused by nonaffine deformation of the glassy cage and the stress buildup due to viscous dissipation.

description: IceCube has recently reported the discovery of high-energy neutrinos of astrophysical origin, opening up the PeV (10^15 eV) sky. Because of their large positional uncertainties, these events have not yet been associated to any astrophysical source. We have found plausible astronomical counterparts in the GeV -- TeV bands by looking for sources in the available large area high-energy gamma-ray catalogues within the error circles of the IceCube events. We then built the spectral energy distribution of these sources and compared it with the energy and flux of the corresponding neutrino. Likely counterparts include mostly BL Lacs and two Galactic pulsar wind nebulae. On the one hand many objects, including the starburst galaxy NGC 253 and Centaurus A, despite being spatially coincident with neutrino events, are too weak to be reconciled with the neutrino flux. On the other hand, various GeV powerful objects cannot be assessed as possible counterparts due to their lack of TeV data. The definitive association between high-energy astrophysical neutrinos and our candidates will be significantly helped by new TeV observations but will be confirmed or disproved only by further IceCube data. Either way, this will have momentous implications for blazar jets, high-energy astrophysics, and cosmic-ray and neutrino astronomy.

description: By performing $N$-body simulations, we investigated fundamental processes of collisions between dust aggregates composed of submicron-sized icy dust monomers. We examined the mass distribution of fragments in the collisional outcomes in a wide range of the mass ratio and the collision velocity between colliding dust aggregates. We derived analytic expressions of the mass distribution of large remnants and small fragments by numerical fitting to the simulation results. Our analytic formulae for masses of the large remnants can reproduce the contribution of mass transfer from a large target to a small projectile, which occurs for a mass ratio of $\gtrsim 3$ and is shown in a previous study (Hasegawa et al. 2021). We found that the power-law index of the cumulative mass distribution of the small fragments is independent of the mass ratio and only weakly dependent on the collision velocity. On the other hand, the mass fraction of fragments of individual dust monomers decreases with an increasing total mass of colliding aggregates for a fixed mass ratio. This tendency implies that multiple hierarchical disruptive collisions (i.e., collisions between fragments, collisions between fragments of fragments) are required for producing a large amount of individual dust monomers via collisional fragmentation. Our fragment model suggests that the total geometric cross section integrated over the fragments is estimated to be about the same order of the geometric cross section of the target.

description: A growing body of evidence highlights the intricate linkage of exteroceptive perception to the rhythmic activity of the visceral body. In parallel, interoceptive inference theories of affective perception and self-consciousness are on the rise in cognitive science. However, thus far no formal theory has emerged to integrate these twin domains; instead, most extant work is conceptual in nature. Here, we introduce a formal model of cardiac active inference, which explains how ascending cardiac signals entrain exteroceptive sensory perception and uncertainty. Through simulated psychophysics, we reproduce the defensive startle reflex and commonly reported effects linking the cardiac cycle to affective behaviour. We further show that simulated 'interoceptive lesions' blunt affective expectations, induce psychosomatic hallucinations, and exacerbate biases in perceptual uncertainty. Through synthetic heart-rate variability analyses, we illustrate how the balance of arousal-priors and visceral prediction errors produces idiosyncratic patterns of physiological reactivity. Our model thus offers a roadmap for computationally phenotyping disordered brain-body interaction.

description: We compute the electromagnetic charged kaon form factor in the time-like region by employing a Poincaré covariant formalism of the Bethe-Salpeter equation to study quark-antiquark bound states in conjunction with the Schwinger-Dyson equation for the quark propagator. Following a recent kindred calculation of the time-like electromagnetic pion form factor, we include the most relevant intermediate composite particles permitted by their quantum numbers in the interaction kernel to allow for a decay mechanism for the resonances involved. This term augments the usual gluon mediated interaction between quarks. For a sufficiently low energy time-like probing photon, the electromagnetic form factor is saturated by the $ρ(770)$ and $ϕ(1020)$ resonances. We assume $SU(2)$ isospin symmetry throughout. Our results for the absolute value squared of the electromagnetic form factor agree qualitatively rather well and quantitatively moderately so with available experimental data.

description: Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women in Germany. In addition to physical examinations (palpation) mammographies are offered every two years to women aged 50 to 69 years as part of the mammography screening programme. For this purpose women are invited in writing and recive a leaflet with information about the background, aims procedures, benefits and possible disadvantages that the screening programme might have. The invitation and the leaflet were revised in 2015 to better support the invited women in making an informed decision about whether they should participate in the programme. In the GEDA 2014/2015-EHIS study, the respondents provided the date of their last mammography and the reason for this. A mammography has been performed on 74.2% of women aged 50 to 69 years within the last two years. 80.7% of these women stated that the reason for this was an invitation sent out by the national screening programme.

description: MXenes are a class of 2D/layered materials which are highly conductive, hydrophilic, have a large electrochemical surface area and are easily processible into electrodes for energy applications. Since the discovery of MXenes over ten years ago, these materials have been mainly used in the preparation of electrodes for batteries and supercapacitors. However, due to their aforementioned properties, MXenes could potentially be utilised as a component in the catalyst layer for the Oxygen Evolution Reaction (OER). This opinion piece will discuss some of the recent literature in the area of hybrid catalysts consisting of various Transition Metal Oxides (TMOs) and MXenes for the OER. We will also discuss current drawbacks and future outlook in this new area of research.

description: Large repositories of high precision light curve data, such as the Kepler data set, provide the opportunity to identify astrophysically important eclipsing binary (EB) systems in large quantities. However, the rate of classical "by eye" human analysis restricts complete and efficient mining of EBs from these data using classical techniques. To prepare for mining EBs from the upcoming K2 mission as well as other current missions, we developed an automated end-to-end computational pipeline - the Eclipsing Binary Factory (EBF) - that automatically identifies EBs and classifies them into morphological types. The EBF has been previously tested on ground-based light curves. To assess the performance of the EBF in the context of space-based data, we apply the EBF to the full set of light curves in the Kepler "Q3" Data Release. We compare the EBs identified from this automated approach against the human generated Kepler EB Catalog of ~2,600 EBs. When we require EB classification with at least 90% confidence, we find that the EBF correctly identifies and classifies eclipsing contact (EC), eclipsing semi-detached (ESD), and eclipsing detached (ED) systems with a false positive rate of only 4%, 4%, and 8%, while complete to 64%, 46%, and 32% respectively. When classification confidence is relaxed, the EBF identifies and classifies ECs, ESDs, and EDs with a slightly higher false positive rate of 6%, 16%, and 8%, while much more complete to 86%, 74%, and 62% respectively. Through our processing of the entire Kepler "Q3" dataset, we also identify 68 new candidate EBs that may have been missed by the human generated Kepler EB Catalog. We discuss the EBF's potential application to light curve classification for periodic variable stars more generally for current and upcoming surveys like K2 and the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite.

Die genetische Analyse des NRZ für Influenza zeigt, dass die zirkulierenden Viren gut zu den im aktuellen Impfstoff enthaltenen Komponenten passen, wobei der Impfstoffstamm gegen die dominant zirkulierenden Influenza B-Viren der Yamagata-Linie (B/Phuket/3073/2013) nur im quadrivalenten Impfstoff enthalten ist. Allerdings weisen die vorläufigen Schätzwerte der Impfeffektivität für Deutschland auch auf eine gewisse Schutzwirkung des trivalenten Impfstoffs gegen die zirkulierenden Influenza B-Viren der Yamagata-Linie hin. Aufgrund der geringen Zahlen von geimpften Personen in der Studienpopulation ist die Interpretation der Ergebnisse eingeschränkt. Mit dem Fortschreiten der Influenzasaison werden genauere Schätzungen möglich.

description: The Standard Model (SM) represents our best description of the subatomic world and it has been very successful in explaining how elementary particles interact under the influence of the fundamental forces. Despite its far reaching success in describing the building blocks of matter, the SM is still incomplete; falling short to explain dark matter, baryogenesis, neutrino masses and much more. The E36 experiment conducted at J-PARC in Japan, allows for sensitivity to search for light $U(1)$ gauge bosons, in the muonic $K^+$ decay channel. Such $U(1)$ bosons could be associated with dark matter or explain established muon-related anomalies such as the muon $g_μ-2$ value, and the proton radius puzzle. A scintillating fiber target was used to stop a beam of positively charged $K$ mesons. The $K^+$ products were detected with a large-acceptance toroidal spectrometer capable of tracking charged particles with high resolution, combined with a large solid angle CsI(TI) photon detector and particle ID systems. A realistic simulation was employed to search for these rare decays in the mass range of 20$-$100 MeV/$c^2$. Preliminary results of the upper limits for the $A^\prime$ branching ratio $\mathcal{B}r(A^\prime)$ extracted at 95\% CL, will be discussed.

description: Motivated by ideas of fractionalization and intrinsic topological order in bosonic models with short-range interactions, we consider similar phenomena in formal lattice gauge theory models. Specifically, we show that a compact quantum electrodynamics (CQED) can have, besides the familiar Coulomb and confined phases, additional unusual confined phases where excitations are quantum lines carrying fractions of the elementary unit of electric field strength. We construct a model that has $N$-tupled monopole condensation and realizes $1/N$ fractionalization of the quantum Faraday lines. This phase has another excitation which is a $Z_N$ quantum surface in spatial dimensions five and higher, but can be viewed as a quantum line or a quantum particle in four or three spatial dimensions respectively. These excitation have statistical interactions with the fractionalized Faraday lines; for example, in three spatial dimensions, the particle excitation picks up a Berry phase of $e^{i2π/N}$ when going around the fractionalized Faraday line excitation. We demonstrate the existence of this phase by Monte Carlo simulations in (3+1) space-time dimensions.

description: We investigated the relation between compact jet emission and X-ray variability properties of all black hole transients with multiwavelength coverage during their outburst decays. We studied the evolution of all power spectral components (including low frequency quasi-periodic oscillations), and related this evolution to changes in jet properties tracked by radio and infrared observations. We grouped sources according to their tracks in radio/X-ray luminosity relation, and show that the standards show stronger broadband X-ray variability than outliers at a given X-ray luminosity when the compact jet turned on. This trend is consistent with the internal shock model and can be important for the understanding of the presence of tracks in the radio/X-ray luminosity relation. We also observed that the total and the QPO rms amplitudes increase together during the earlier part of the outburst decay, but after the compact jet turns either the QPO disappears or its rms amplitude decreases significantly while the total rms amplitudes remain high. We discuss these results with a scenario including a variable corona and a non-variable disk with a mechanism for the QPO separate from the mechanism that create broad components. Finally, we evaluated the timing predictions of the magnetically dominated accretion flow model which can explain the presence of tracks in the radio/X-ray luminosity relation.

description: Das Rauchverhalten im Jugendalter ist von besonderem Interesse, da hier meist die Weichen für den Tabakkonsum im späteren Leben gestellt werden. Laut aktuellen Daten der KiGGS Welle 2 rauchen 7,4 % der 11- bis 17-jährigen Mädchen und 7,0 % der gleichaltrigen Jungen zumindest gelegentlich. Mit zunehmendem Alter steigt der Anteil der Kinder und Jugendlichen, die rauchen. Heranwachsende mit hohem sozioökonomischen Status rauchen seltener als Gleichaltrige aus der mittleren beziehungsweise niedrigen Statusgruppe. Seit Beginn der KiGGS-Studie (2003 – 2006) ist der Anteil der 11- bis 17-Jährigen, die rauchen, von 21,4 % auf 12,4 % (2009 – 2012) und schließlich auf 7,2 % (2014 – 2017) zurückgegangen. Bei der Tabakpräventionspolitik in Deutschland besteht – trotz dieser beachtlichen Fortschritte – noch Verbesserungspotenzial, zum Beispiel im Hinblick auf Besteuerung oder Werbeverbote.

On the Raman O VI and related lines in classical novae

description: We critically examine the recent claimed detection of Raman scattered O VI at around 6830Å in the iron curtain stage spectra of the classical CO nova V339 Del. The observed line variations are compatible in profile and timing of emission line strength with an excited state transition of neutral carbon. Line formation in classical nova ejecta is physically very different from that in symbiotic binaries, in which the O VI emission line is formed within the wind of the companion red giant at low differential velocity. The ejecta velocity and density structure prevent the scattering from producing analogous features. There might , however, be a broadband spectropolarimetric signature of the Raman process and also Rayleigh scattering at some stage in the expansion. We show that the neutral carbon spectrum, hitherto under-exploited for novae, is especially useful as a probe of the structure of the ejecta during the early, optically thick stages of the expansion

description: Η σημαντικότητα της έρευνας σχετίζεται με την συμβολή της μηχανικής μάθησης στο σχεδιασμό μιας στρατηγικής για βέλτιστη λήψη αποφάσεων και κατ’ επέκταση του καθορισμού των ελάχιστων δυνατών λειτουργιών (features) που θα φέρει το προϊόν μιας ηλεκτρονικής πλατφόρμας από μια εταιρία τεχνολογίας, η οποία θα παρέχει χρηματοοικονομικές υπηρεσίες ώστε να είναι βιώσιμο (Minimum Viable Product - MVP), με σκοπό την σταδιακή ανάπτυξη και τελειοποίησή του. Για τις ανάγκες της ερευνητικής εργασίας ερευνάται το ενδεχόμενο δημιουργίας μιας ηλεκτρονικής πλατφόρμας από εταιρία τεχνολογίας, η οποία θα παρέχει χρηματοοικονομικές υπηρεσίες. Πιο συγκεκριμένα, θα συγκρίνει κατηγορίες δανείων μεταξύ των τραπεζών της Ελλάδας και θα παρέχει εξατομικευμένες προτάσεις κατόπιν λήψης πληροφοριών από τους ενδιαφερόμενους χρήστες με στόχο να προταθούν τα καταλληλότερα πακέτα για τις ανάγκες τους. Η συλλογή των απαραίτητων δεδομένων πραγματοποιήθηκε με χρήση ερωτηματολογίου όπου το δείγμα πάρθηκε με τυχαία δειγματοληψία και έγινε προσπάθεια να είναι όσο το δυνατόν μεγαλύτερο ώστε να είναι πιο αντιπροσωπευτικό. Γενικά, το ερωτηματολόγιο αποτελείται από τρεις ομάδες ερωτήσεων. Πρώτα τα δημογραφικά, δεύτερον ερωτήσεις που σχετίζονται με το αντικείμενο των υπηρεσιών που θα παρέχει η πλατφόρμα και τρίτον ερωτήσεις πάνω στις λειτουργίες που πρόκειται να παρέχει η πλατφόρμα. Ο σκοπός αυτής της έρευνας είναι να εκτιμήσει την επιτυχία της πλατφόρμας, χρησιμοποιώντας τις απαντήσεις των ερωτηθέντων και φτιάχνοντας στην συνέχεια ένα μοντέλο μηχανικής μάθησης. Για την εκτίμηση της επιτυχίας της πλατφόρμας θα χρησιμοποιηθούν Δείκτες Απόδοσης (Key Performance Indicators – KPIs) που βασίζονται στα δεδομένα που συλλέχθηκαν από τα ερωτηματολόγια, τα οποία στην συνέχεια εκτιμήθηκαν με την χρήση μηχανικής μάθησης. Πιο συγκεκριμένα, τα KPIs είναι δείκτες που χρησιμοποιούνται από οργανισμούς για τη μέτρηση, τη διαχείριση και τη σύγκριση της απόδοσης. Οι Δείκτες Απόδοσης μπορούν να οριστούν ως οι φυσικές αξίες που χρησιμοποιούνται για τη μέτρηση, τη σύγκριση και τη διαχείριση της συνολικής οργανωτικής απόδοσης. Επίσης, οι Δείκτες Απόδοσης μπορεί να περιλαμβάνουν την ποιότητα, τα χρηματοοικονομικά, την αξιοπιστία παράδοσης, την ικανοποίηση, την ασφάλεια, το περιβάλλον/κοινότητα και την μάθηση και ανάπτυξη. Έτσι, πραγματοποιήθηκε η εκτίμηση ενός KPI που αφορά την επιτυχία της πλατφόρμας με την συμβολή άλλων πέντε KPIs. Το μοντέλο που εφαρμόστηκε για την εκτίμηση του KPI είναι το Νευρωνικό Δίκτυο. Η αποτελεσματικότητα του μοντέλου προέκυψε 91,83%, και έτσι εκτιμάται ότι η ηλεκτρονική πλατφόρμα θα έχει μεγάλη επιτυχία (7/10 ανθρώπους που θα ακούσουν για αυτή την online πλατφόρμα θα την χρησιμοποιήσουν) με 91,83% εγκυρότητα.

description: Social epidemiological research has consistently demonstrated that people with a low socioeconomic status are particularly at risk of diseases, health complaints and functional limitations, and die at younger ages than those with a higher socioeconomic status. Greater stresses and strains in the workplace, family and living environment are under discussion as possible explanations. Health-related behaviours, psycho-social factors and personal resources, which are important in coping with everyday demands, certainly also play a role. From a public health and health policy perspective, reducing these health inequalities is an important goal. Insights into developments and trends in health inequalities over time can contribute towards highlighting new and emerging problems, and can thus help identify possible target groups and settings for relevant interventions. At the same time, these insights provide a basis upon which the success of policies and programmes that have already been implemented can be analysed and measured. Against this background, this review examines how health inequalities in Germany have developed over the last 20 to 30 years and places its findings within the context of the latest international research in this field.

description: Αυτή η εργασία συζητά τη βασική φιλοσοφία της πρόληψης ναυτικών ατυχημάτων, τα πραγματικά γεγονότα που σχετίζονται με τα ατυχήματα, το διεθνές κανονιστικό πλαίσιο, την ψυχολογία της ασφάλειας, την κόπωση, τα εργατικά ατυχήματα, την οργάνωση που απαιτείται για την πρόληψη ατυχημάτων και τις διάφορες μεθόδους εκπαίδευσης και εκπαίδευσης των εργαζομένων. Μια λεπτομερής ανάλυση όλου του διεθνούς ρυθμιστικού πλαισίου όπως ο IMO, η SOLAS, η STCW, η ISPS και η MARPOL αποτελούν το κλειδί για αυτή τη διατριβή μαζί με μια ανάλυση τριών μεγάλων ατυχημάτων που έχουν συμβεί στη ναυτιλιακή βιομηχανία, αυτά των πλοίων μεταφοράς χύδην φορτίου M/ V Derbyshire (1980), M/V Treasure (2000) και M/V Harita Bauxite (2013). Και τα τρία πλοία μεταφοράς χύδην φορτίου βυθίστηκαν σε διαφορετικές θαλάσσιες περιοχές και διαφορετικές χρονικές περιόδους λόγω κακοκαιρίας, αφού υπέστησαν σοβαρές ζημιές στο κύτος τους. Πραγματοποιήθηκε ανάλυση του συμβάντος, προκειμένου να αναλυθούν τα υπό συζήτηση ατυχήματα. Σύμφωνα με την ανάλυση, τα ατυχήματα συνέβησαν κυρίως λόγω της δομής των πλοίων, με το κύτος τους να μην είναι κατάλληλο και τα καλύμματα των καταπατών φορτίου να μην είναι αρκετά ισχυρά ώστε να αντιστέκονται στις πιέσεις που επιβάλλονται από μεγάλα και επιθετικά κύματα, ενώ στην περίπτωση του βαποριού Harita Bauxite βρέθηκε το φορτίο να είναι πολύ υγρό για να αντέξει το κύτος του σκάφους στη βαριά κύλιση του πλοίου σε δύσκολες καιρικές συνθήκες. Τα ατυχήματα αυτά, δεν είναι τα μόνα όπου έχουν αναφερθεί για τους ίδιους λόγους και αιτίες, και όπου όλα υποτίθεται είχαν σκοπό να ακολουθήσουν τον Διεθνή Ναυτιλιακό Οργανισμό (IMO), να τροποποιήσει τις συμβάσεις του και να αναπτύξει νέους και αυστηρότερους κανονισμούς σχετικά με το σχεδιασμό και τη δομή των πλοίων, καθώς και την αποθήκευση του φορτίου και του χειρισμού του στην πολύ ευαίσθητη και σημαντική περίπτωση των πλοίων μεταφοράς χύδην φορτίου. Το γεγονός ότι το ατύχημα του M/V Harita Bauxite συνέβη πρόσφατα το 2013 υποδηλώνει ότι τα διδάγματα δεν έχουν ακόμη παρθεί, υποδεικνύοντας έτσι ότι ο Διεθνής Ναυτιλιακός Οργανισμός (ΙΜΟ) πρέπει να γίνει αυστηρότερος και αποτελεσματικότερος όσον αφορά την ταχεία εφαρμογή των συμβάσεων και των κανονισμών του.
