description: RESUMO

 

As tecnologias, a nível global, adentram o sistema de ensino, gerando impactos significativos na educação e, consequentemente, na forma de o aluno relacionar-se com o processo de ensino-aprendizagem. Diante disso, é imprescindível discutirmos sobre a integração das tecnologias ao exercício educacional, visto ser urgente a modificação dos métodos pedagógicos que viabilizem a consecução de conhecimentos que sejam notórios e relevantes para a ampliação de competências e habilidades que possibilitem ao aluno a atuação crítica, profissional e cidadã na sociedade digital. Visando isso, nosso estudo objetiva discutir sobre o impacto da utilização da tecnologia educacional na educação básica, destacando sua relevância para o desenvolvimento cognitivo, habilidades socioemocionais e preparação dos alunos para o mundo digital. A fim de alcançarmos resultados sólidos e positivos com o estudo, utilizamos o método qualitativo, de caráter exploratório bibliográfico, por meio do qual lançamos mão de considerações dos teóricos Kenski (2013) Moran (2001, 2015), Paulo Freire (2002), Freitas (2010), Vygotsky (1987), entre outros. A pesquisa conduz à constatação de que o aluno do século XXI tem inúmeras informações a sua disposição e, por vezes, lhe falta requisitos específicos para lidar com a gama de conteúdos com os quais tem contato ao acessar a internet, o professor, mediante a utilização de recursos e ferramentas tecnológicos(as) inovadores (as) assume um novo papel em sala de aula, no qual passa de preceptor do ensino para mediador do conhecimento. Essa mudança de postura é efetivada por intermédio das tecnologias educacionais, que juntamente a formação adequada por parte do educador, torna-se uma facilitadora do aprendizado.

description: Background: With the rapid increase of whole-genome sequencing of human cancers, an important opportunity to analyze and characterize somatic mutations lying within cis-regulatory regions has emerged. A focus on protein-coding regions to identify nonsense or missense mutations disruptive to protein structure and/or function has led to important insights; however, the impact on gene expression of mutations lying within cis-regulatory regions remains under-explored. We analyzed somatic mutations from 84 matched tumor-normal whole genomes from B-cell lymphomas with accompanying gene expression measurements to elucidate the extent to which these cancers are disrupted by cis-regulatory mutations. Results We characterize mutations overlapping a high quality set of well-annotated transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs), covering a similar portion of the genome as protein-coding exons. Our results indicate that cis-regulatory mutations overlapping predicted TFBSs are enriched in promoter regions of genes involved in apoptosis or growth/proliferation. By integrating gene expression data with mutation data, our computational approach culminates with identification of cis-regulatory mutations most likely to participate in dysregulation of the gene expression program. The impact can be measured along with protein-coding mutations to highlight key mutations disrupting gene expression and pathways in cancer. Conclusions Our study yields specific genes with disrupted expression triggered by genomic mutations in either the coding or the regulatory space. It implies that mutated regulatory components of the genome contribute substantially to cancer pathways. Our analyses demonstrate that identifying genomically altered cis-regulatory elements coupled with analysis of gene expression data will augment biological interpretation of mutational landscapes of cancers.

description: Double perovskite oxides (DPOs) with two transition metal ions ($A_2$$BB^\prime$O$_6$) offer a fascinating platform for exploring exotic physics and practical applications. Studying these DPOs as ultrathin epitaxial thin films on single crystalline substrates can add another dimension to engineering electronic, magnetic, and topological phenomena. Understanding the consequence of polarity mismatch between the substrate and the DPO would be the first step towards this broad goal. We investigate this by studying the interface between a prototypical insulating DPO Nd$_2$NiMnO$_6$ and a wide-band gap insulator SrTiO$_3$. The interface is found to be insulating in nature. By combining several experimental techniques and density functional theory, we establish a site-selective charge compensation process that occurs explicitly at the Mn site of the film, leaving the Ni sites inert. We further demonstrate that such surprising selectivity, which cannot be explained by existing mechanisms of polarity compensation, is directly associated with their electronic correlation energy scales. This study establishes the crucial role of Mott physics in polar compensation process and paves the way for designer doping strategies in complex oxides.

description: We study the effects of elastic anisotropy on Landau–de Gennes critical points, for nematic liquid crystals, on a square domain. The elastic anisotropy is captured by a parameter, L2, and the critical points are described by 3 d.f. We analytically construct a symmetric critical point for all admissible values of L2, which is necessarily globally stable for small domains, i.e. when the square edge length, lambda, is small enough. We perform asymptotic analyses and numerical studies to discover at least five classes of these symmetric critical points—the WORS, Ring pm, Constant and pWORS solutions, of which the WORS, Ring+ and Constant solutions can be stable. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the novel Constant solution is energetically preferable for large lambda and large L2, and prove associated stability results that corroborate the stabilizing effects of L2 for reduced Landau–de Gennes critical points. We complement our analysis with numerically computed bifurcation diagrams for different values of L2, which illustrate the interplay of elastic anisotropy and geometry for nematic solution landscapes, at low temperatures.

description: We present two new frequency-domain gravitational waveform models for the analysis of signals emitted by binary neutron star coalescences: IMRPhenomXAS_NRTidalv2 and IMRPhenomXP_NRTidalv2. Both models are available through the public algorithm library LALSuite and represent the first extensions of IMRPhenomX models including matter effects. We show here that these two models represent a significant advancement in efficiency and accuracy with respect to their phenomenological predecessors, IMRPhenomD_NRTidalv2 and IMRPhenomPv2_NRTidalv2. The computational efficiency of the new models is achieved through the application of the same multibanding technique previously applied to binary black hole models. Furthermore, IMRPhenomXP_NRTidalv2 implements a more accurate description of the precession dynamics, including double-spin effects and, optionally, matter effects in the twisting-up construction. The latter are available through an option to use a numerical integration of the post-Newtonian precession equations. We show that the new precession descriptions allow the model to better reproduce the phenomenology observed in numerical-relativity simulations of precessing binary neutron stars. Finally, we present some applications of the new models to Bayesian parameter estimation studies, including a reanalysis of GW170817 and a study of simulated observations using numerical relativity waveforms for nonprecessing binary neutron stars with highly spinning components. We find that in these cases the new models make a negligible difference in the results. Nevertheless, by virtue of the aforementioned improvements, the new models represent valuable tools for the study of future detections of coalescing binary neutron stars.

description: As a new research area, quantum software testing lacks systematic testing benchmarks to assess testing techniques' effectiveness. Recently, some open-source benchmarks and mutation analysis tools have emerged. However, there is insufficient evidence on how various quantum circuit characteristics (e.g., circuit depth, number of quantum gates), algorithms (e.g., Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm), and mutation characteristics (e.g., mutation operators) affect the detection of mutants in quantum circuits. Studying such relations is important to systematically design faulty benchmarks with varied attributes (e.g., the difficulty in detecting a seeded fault) to facilitate assessing the cost-effectiveness of quantum software testing techniques efficiently. To this end, we present a large-scale empirical evaluation with more than 700K faulty benchmarks (quantum circuits) generated by mutating 382 real-world quantum circuits. Based on the results, we provide valuable insights for researchers to define systematic quantum mutation analysis techniques. We also provide a tool to recommend mutants to users based on chosen characteristics (e.g., a quantum algorithm type) and the required difficulty of detecting mutants. Finally, we also provide faulty benchmarks that can already be used to assess the cost-effectiveness of quantum software testing techniques.
Origin of the classical magnetization discontinuities of the dodecahedron

Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)

description: The classical antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on the dodecahedron has been shown to have three magnetization discontinuities in an external field. Here it is shown that the highest-field discontinuity can be directly traced back to the strong magnetization jump leading to saturation at the Ising limit, which originates from the magnetic response of an isolated pentagon and the frustrated connectivity of the dodecahedron. This discontinuity survives up to the $XY$ limit and disappears shortly before the ferromagnetic Ising interaction fully polarizes the spins. The two lower-field jumps of the model result from the competition of discontinuities that emerge from the magnetization plateau surviving away from the Ising limit.

description: Vast industrial investment along with increased academic research on heavy-duty hydraulic manipulators has unavoidably paved the way for their automatization, necessitating the design of robust and high-precision controllers. In this study, an orchestrated robust controller is designed to address the mentioned issue for generic manipulators with an anthropomorphic arm and spherical wrist. Thanks to virtual decomposition control (VDC), the entire robotic system is decomposed into subsystems, and a robust controller is designed at each local subsystem by considering unknown model uncertainties, unknown disturbances, and compound input nonlinearities. As such, radial basic function neural networks (RBFNNs) are incorporated into VDC to tackle unknown disturbances and uncertainties, resulting in novel decentralized RBFNNs. All robust local controllers designed at each local subsystem, then, are orchestrated to accomplish high-precision control. In the end, for the first time in the context of VDC, a semi-globally uniformly ultimate boundedness is achieved under the designed controller. The validity of the theoretical results is verified by performing extensive simulations and experiments on a 6-degrees-of-freedom industrial manipulator with a nominal lifting capacity of 600 kg at 5 meters reach. Comparing the simulation result to the state-of-the-art controller along with provided experimental results, demonstrates that proposed method established all promises and performed excellently.

The ancestral shape hypothesis: an evolutionary explanation for the occurrence of intervertebral disc herniation in humans

description: Background: Recent studies suggest there is a relationship between intervertebral disc herniation and vertebral shape. The nature of this relationship is unclear, however. Humans are more commonly afflicted with spinal disease than are non-human primates and one suggested explanation for this is the stress placed on the spine by bipedalism. With this in mind, we carried out a study of human, chimpanzee, and orangutan vertebrae to examine the links between vertebral shape, locomotion, and Schmorl’s nodes, which are bony indicators of vertical intervertebral disc herniation. We tested the hypothesis that vertical disc herniation preferentially affects individuals with vertebrae that are towards the ancestral end of the range of shape variation within Homo sapiens and therefore are less well adapted for bipedalism. Results: The study employed geometric morphometric techniques. Two-dimensional landmarks were used to capture the shapes of the superior aspect of the body and posterior elements of the last thoracic and first lumbar vertebrae of chimpanzees, orangutans, and humans with and without Schmorl’s nodes. These data were subjected to multivariate statistical analyses. Canonical Variates Analysis indicated that the last thoracic and first lumbar vertebrae of healthy humans, chimpanzees, and orangutans can be distinguished from each other (p<0.028), but vertebrae of pathological humans and chimpanzees cannot (p>0.4590). The Procrustes distance between pathological humans and chimpanzees was found to be smaller than the one between pathological and healthy humans. This was the case for both vertebrae. Pair-wise MANOVAs of Principal Component scores for both the thoracic and lumbar vertebrae found significant differences between all pairs of taxa (p<0.029), except pathological humans vs chimpanzees (p>0.367). Together, these results suggest that human vertebrae with Schmorl’s nodes are closer in shape to chimpanzee vertebrae than are healthy human vertebrae. Conclusions: The results support the hypothesis that intervertebral disc herniation preferentially affects individuals with vertebrae that are towards the ancestral end of the range of shape variation within H. sapiens and therefore are less well adapted for bipedalism. This finding not only has clinical implications but also illustrates the benefits of bringing the tools of evolutionary biology to bear on problems in medicine and public health.

description: This paper works within a model postulated by Gregory Ulmer. In his development of an idea that there is in academic writing the self and the researched, the conscious intellectual semiotic and that arising from storytelling, Gregory Ulmer surveys the idea of 'mystories'. This word encompasses the self, the story and the mystery of this. A 'mystory' puts under erasure all claims to fact in writing. It shows all writing to be both personal and mysterious (my story and mystery) whatever its claims to authenticity and depersonalisation. It reveals the academic text to be sewn together as a compilation of the scholarly, the anecdotal or popular, and the autobiographical.

description: With the proliferation of increasingly complicated Deep Learning architectures, data synthesis is a highly promising technique to address the demand of data-hungry models. However, reliably assessing the quality of a 'synthesiser' model's output is an open research question with significant associated risks for high-stake domains. To address this challenge, we propose a unique synthesis algorithm that generates data from high-confidence feature space regions based on the Conformal Prediction framework. We support our proposed algorithm with a comprehensive exploration of the core parameter's influence, an in-depth discussion of practical advice, and an extensive empirical evaluation of five benchmark datasets. To show our approach's versatility on ubiquitous real-world challenges, the datasets were carefully selected for their variety of difficult characteristics: low sample count, class imbalance, and non-separability. In all trials, training sets extended with our confident synthesised data performed at least as well as the original set and frequently significantly improved Deep Learning performance by up to 61 percentage points F1-score.

 Diagnosis. The forewing length is 19–20 mm in males and 22 mm in females. The new species differs clearly from the type species of the genus, P. flava in its brown body and wing coloration. Additionally, in the Vietnamese population a postmedial costal stroke is present (absent in P. flava). The male genitalia of the two species are similar, but P. secunda can be distinguished by the slightly broader uncus, the larger juxta, the more elongate distal spine originating from the tip of the distal saccular process (it is short and originates subapically in P. flava), the somewhat broader aedeagus, and the presence of a quite large lateral cornutus in the aedeagus vesica (whereas in P. flava it is absent or present as a tiny denticle). The female genitalia of the new species differ from those of P. flava more conspicuously than the male genitalia by their much larger pocket-like antevaginal plate, the slightly broader ductus bursae, the broader gelatinous enlargement of the posterior section of the corpus bursae, and the slightly broader appendix bursae.
 Distribution. The new species is known from Northern Vietnam (Lào Cai Province) and Southwestern China (Sichuan Province).
 Etymology. 'Secunda' means 'second' in Latin; referring to the new species is being the second known member of the genus Parabitecta.

description: The notion of $θ$-FAM-linkedness, introduced in the second author's master thesis, is a formalization of the notion of strong FAM limits for intervals, whose initial form and applications have appeared in the work of Saharon Shelah, Jakob Kellner, and Anda Tănasie, for controlling cardinals characteristics of the continuum in ccc forcing extensions. This generalization was successful in such a thesis to establish a general theory of iterated forcing using finitely additive measures. In this paper, using probability theory tools developed in the same thesis, we refine Saharon Shelah's proof of the fact that random forcing is $σ$-FAM-linked and prove that any complete Boolean algebra with a strictly positive probability measure satisfying the $θ$-density property is $θ$-FAM-linked. As a consequence, we get a new collection of examples of $θ$-FAM-linked forcing notions: the measure algebra adding $θ$-many random reals.

description: An economic analysis of marketing was done in Jammu region to analyze the efficiency of exchange of flowers from production to consumption side. Primary data were collected from farmers selected through multistage sampling technique and wholesalers and retailers selected randomly from subtropical area of Jammu and Kathua districts in 2017-18. Five marketing channels were found in the study area which were farmer-retailer-consumer, farmer-wholesaler-retailer-consumer, farmer- retailer (pre harvest contract)-consumer, farmer-retailer (farm marketing)-consumer, farmer-consumer in which first 3 were followed by farmers of Jammu district and all 5 were followed in Kathua district. In Jammu district, the most efficient marketing channel was channel III followed by I and II while in Kathua district, channel V was found most efficient followed by channel IV, III, I and II. Major marketing constraints faced by farmers were distant markets followed by lack of regulated markets, lack of market information and high transportation cost.

description: Diaspora remittances play a crucial role in driving infrastructural development in Nigeria, serving as a vital source of funding for key sectors such as transportation, healthcare, education, and housing. These financial inflows from Nigerians living abroad contribute significantly to economic growth, bridging gaps in government spending and fostering private sector investments. By channeling remittances into infrastructure projects, communities benefit from improved living standards, job creation, and enhanced public services. This study explores the impact of diaspora remittances on Nigeria's development, highlighting challenges, opportunities, and strategies for maximizing their potential in nation-building.

description: HIV-positive people who use illicit drugs typically achieve lower levels of adherence to antiretroviral therapy and experience higher rates of sub-optimal HIV/AIDS treatment outcomes. Given the dearth of longitudinal research into ART adherence dynamics, we sought to identify factors associated with transitioning into and out of optimal adherence to ART in a longitudinal study of HIV-infected people who use illicit drugs (PWUD) in a setting of universal no-cost HIV/AIDS treatment. Using data from a prospective cohort of community-recruited HIV-positive illicit drug users confidentially linked to comprehensive HIV/AIDS treatment records, we estimated longitudinal factors associated with losing or gaining ≥ 95% adherence in the previous six months using two generalized linear mixed-effects models. Among 703 HIV-infected ART-exposed PWUD, becoming non-adherent was associated with periods of homelessness (Adjusted Odds Ratio [AOR] = 2.52, 95% Confidence Interval [95% CI]: 1.56 - 4.07), active injection drug use (AOR = 1.25, 95% CI: 1.01 - 1.56) and incarceration (AOR = 1.54, 95% CI: 1.10 - 2.17). Periods of sex work (AOR = 0.51, 95% CI: 0.34 - 0.75) and injection drug use (AOR = 0.62, 95% CI: 0.50 - 0.77) were barriers to becoming optimally adherent. Methadone maintenance therapy (MMT) was associated with becoming optimally adherent (AOR = 1.87, 95% CI: 1.50 - 2.33) and was protective against becoming non-adherent (AOR = 0.52, 95% CI: 0.41 - 0.65). In conclusion, we identified several behavioural, social and structural factors that shape adherence patterns among PWUD. Our findings highlight the need to consider these contextual factors in interventions that support the effective delivery of ART to this population.
« J’adore la France qui adore l’Amérique » Le rapport équivoque avec la France d’un Montréalais d’adoption : Dany Laferrière

Publisher: name: Altre Modernità

description: Comme beaucoup d’écrivains de l’ère postcoloniale, Dany Laferrière, né à Haïti et exilé à Montréal, a des rapports équivoques, parfois même tendus avec la France. Bien qu’il admette n’avoir aucun problème à être édité par une maison française, il refuse de se mesurer aux normes de l’institution littéraire de l’Hexagone, allant jusqu’à se défendre de tout compromis, de tout clin d’œil face à un pays qui pour d’autres écrivains restera toujours leur patrie intellectuelle. La France est donc absente de son œuvre puisqu’il refuse de s’incliner devant le colonisateur comme devant le dictateur ; et la France est aussi absente de son œuvre parce qu’il a « découvert par hasard […] que Haïti était en Amérique et non en France », ce qui l’amènera jusqu’à souhaiter qu’Haïti « se place sous la bannière américaine » au lieu de celle de la France. Par contre, à partir de l’année 2013, Dany Laferrière occupe le fauteuil de Hector Bianciotti à l’Académie Française. Il est le premier écrivain caribéen et nord-américain à entrer sous la Coupole.

description: Since the successful synthesis of the MoSSe monolayer, which violated the out-of-plane mirror symmetry of TMDs monolayers, considerable and systematic research has been conducted on Janus monolayer materials. By systematically analyzing the LaBrI monolayer, we are able to learn more about the novel Janus material by focusing on the halogen family next to group VIA (S, Se, Te). The structural optimizations have been carried out using pseudopotential based Quantum espresso code. Computed structural parameters are in good agreement with literature reports. The optimized crystal structures were used for computing effect of strain on electronic and thermoelectric properties. Dynamical stability predicts that this material can withstand up to 10% of tensile strain. Computed electronic structure reveals material to be indirect wide band gap ferromagnet with magnetic moment 1μB. With increase in the biaxial tensile strain the band gap decreases. Furthermore, the computed magneto-thermoelectric properties predict high Seebeck coefficient ~ 400 μV/K and low thermal conductivity of ~ 0.93 W/m.K in LaBrI which results in a high ZT ~ 1.84 for 4% strain at 800 K. The present study supports the fact that tensile strain on ferromagnetic LaBrI material can further enhance TE properties making it to be a promising material for TE applications at higher temperatures.

description: Equity auctions display several distinctive characteristics in contrast to continuous trading. As the auction time approaches, the rate of events accelerates causing a substantial liquidity buildup around the indicative price. This, in turn, results in a reduced price impact and decreased volatility of the indicative price. In this study, we adapt the latent/revealed order book framework to the specifics of equity auctions. We provide precise measurements of the model parameters, including order submissions, cancellations, and diffusion rates. Our setup allows us to describe the full dynamics of the average order book during closing auctions in Euronext Paris. These findings support the relevance of the latent liquidity framework in describing limit order book dynamics. Lastly, we analyze the factors contributing to a sub-diffusive indicative price and demonstrate the absence of indicative price predictability.

description: Some but not all neonates are affected by prenatal exposure to serotonin reuptake inhibitor antidepressants (SRI) and maternal mood disturbances. Distinguishing the impact of these two exposures is challenging and raises critical questions about whether pharmacological, genetic, or epigenetic factors can explain the spectrum of reported outcomes. Using unbiased DNA methylation array measurements followed by a detailed candidate gene approach, we examined whether prenatal SRI exposure was associated with neonatal DNA methylation changes and whether such changes were associated with differences in birth outcomes. Prenatal SRI exposure was first associated with increased DNA methylation status primarily at CYP2E1(βNon-exposed = 0.06, βSRI-exposed = 0.30, FDR = 0); however, this finding could not be distinguished from the potential impact of prenatal maternal depressed mood. Then, using pyrosequencing of CYP2E1 regulatory regions in an expanded cohort, higher DNA methylation status—both the mean across 16 CpG sites (P < 0.01) and at each specific CpG site (P < 0.05)—was associated with exposure to lower 3rd trimester maternal depressed mood symptoms only in the SRI-exposed neonates, indicating a maternal mood x SRI exposure interaction. In addition, higher DNA methylation levels at CpG2 (P = 0.04), CpG9 (P = 0.04) and CpG10 (P = 0.02), in the interrogated CYP2E1 region, were associated with increased birth weight independently of prenatal maternal mood, SRI drug exposure, or gestational age at birth. Prenatal SRI antidepressant exposure and maternal depressed mood were associated with altered neonatal CYP2E1 methylation status, which, in turn, appeared to be associated with birth weight.
