description: Стаття присвячена розгляду питань методів адміністративно-правового регулювання відчуження військового майна. 
Визначено, що з часу розвитку правової системи нашої держави  відбулися ґрунтовні зміни у законодавстві, що регулює відповідні сфери суспільного життя, в тому числі і у військовій  сфері.Верховною Радою України прийнято вагомі  закони, якими забезпечується створення належних умов для успішного виконання Збройними  Силами  та іншими військовими формуваннями, що утворені згідно чинного законодавства,  основних завдань, покладених  на них.
Досліджуючи питання методів правового регулювання визначено, що методи адміністративно-правового регулювання можна визначити як сукупність правових способів та засобів, що використовують уповноважені суб'єкти в процесі реалізації виконавчої влади з метою  регулювання суспільних відносин. 
Зазначено, що під методами адміністративно - правового регулювання відчуження військового майна у даному дослідженні ми  розумітимемо  зовнішнє вираження  управлінських відносин органів влади, які вони здійснюють щодо даного порядку відчуження.
Проаналізовано основні наукові погляди щодо визначення суті поняття військового майна. Так, на основі проаналізованих наукових позицій та норм чинного законодавства визначено, що військове майном – це  рухоме та нерухоме майно загального та спеціального призначення, що належить до державної форми власності і закріплюється  за  Збройними Силами України, яке вони використовують з метою виконання своїх функцій, а також задля ведення господарської діяльності на підставі норм чинного законодавства України.
Проаналізовано особливості  відчуження військового майна відповідно до норма чинного законодавства.
Авторами запропоновано визначення методів адміністративно-правового регулювання відчуження військового майна, а також виокремлено основні методи правового регулювання.

description: This paper presents a Power Hardware-in-the-Loop (PHIL) emulation test bench for emulating highly utilized perma-nent magnet synchronous machines (PMSM). The output stage of the PHIL is a Cascaded H-bridge based Parallel Hybrid Converter (PHC) with a 17-level output voltage and an effective switching frequency of 1 MHz. The nonlinear machine is emu-lated with a sampling frequency of 5 MHz and is implemented on a field programmable gate array (FPGA) using Matlab/Simulink's HDL Coder. For this purpose, the time-discretized model equations of a PMSM and the PHIL test bench are derived and their mapping into an HDL code-generable and fully fixed-point transformed model in Simulink is described. To enable the high model sampling rate of 5 MHz, it is optimized for a low clock cycle count and the nonlinear relations between the machine currents and flux linkages are stored in lookup tables (LUT). The measurements are carried out in steady-state operation as well as for highly dynamic current and rotor speed steps. They demonstrate the excellent performance of the presented PHIL test bench, which even perfectly reproduces the current ripple of the modeled PMSM.
Henri Poincaré et l'émergence du concept de cycle limite

description: The concept of "limit cycle" was introduced by Henri Poincaré in his second memoir "On curves defined by a differential equation" in 1882. From the point of view of physics, a stable limit cycle (or attractive) is the representation of the periodic solution of a (mechanical or electrical) dissipative system whose oscillations are maintained by the system itself. Conversely, the existence of a stable limit cycle ensures the maintenance of the oscillations. So far, the historiography considered that the Russian mathematician Aleksandr Andronov was the first to establish such a correspondence between the periodic solution of a self-oscillating system and Poincaré's concept of limit cycle. The recent discovery of a series of lectures given by Henri Poincaré in 1908 at the School of Post and Telegraph (now Telecom Paris Tech) proves that he had already used his limit cycle concept to establish the existence of a regime of maintained waves in a wireless device of radiotechnics. This article aims on the one hand to trace the emergence of this concept since its creation by Poincaré and the other hand to highlight its importance and role in the history of non-linear oscillations.

description: In skin and wound research the instrumental measurement of skin function is established. Despite the widespread use, empirical evidence about measurement errors is widely lacking. The aim of this study was to measure reliability and agreement of skin temperature, transepidermal water loss, epidermal hydration, and erythema at the heel and sacral skin. Four experienced researchers performed skin measurements in 15 subjects. Lowest reliability was observed for transepidermal water loss at the sacral skin (ICC (1) 0.46 (95% CI 0.00-0.78)) and highest for skin temperature at the heel skin (ICC (1) 0.99 (95% CI 0.99-1.00)). Lowest Standard Errors of Measurement were calculated for skin temperature measurements at the heels (0.11 degrees C) and highest for erythema measurements at the sacral skin (26.7 arbitrary units). There was a clear association between variability of estimates and reliability coefficients. Single measurements of skin temperature, stratum corneum, and epidermal hydration at the sacral and heel skin areas can be used in clinical research and practice. Means of at least two measurements should be used for estimating transepidermal water loss and erythema. Evidence is needed to inform researchers about relative and absolute measurement errors of commonly applied instruments and measurements in skin and wound research.

description: Em Portugal, de 1910 a 1967, não existiu nenhuma Escola teológica, no sentido restrito da palavra escola. O Governo Provisório da jovem República encerra a Faculdade de Teologia da Universidade de Coimbra, anulando as matrículas no 1.º ano da licenciatura, a 23 de Outubro de 1910. A partir daí, o ensino da Teologia passou a ser feito, exclusivamente, nos Seminários de cada Diocese e, apenas, para formação dos que queriam seguir a carreira eclesiástica. Deste modo, ficou negado, ao simples crente ou investigador, o estudo académico da Teologia em Portugal. Podemos, então, falar de um vazio teológico, de um deserto, embora seja possível encontrar um ou outro oásis, no que eu chamo iniciativas erráticas, lugares proféticos da proclamação do necessário, desejável e possível. A travessia do deserto durou cerca de 60 anos… terá chegado o fim da unicidade de pensamento teológico em Portugal?

description: Users experience a crisis of confidence for online activities in the current Internet. Unfortunately, the symptom of this crisis of confidence manifests itself through online attacks, where adversaries con users to extract money or valuable sensitive information. Instead of addressing the symptom, we investigate how to address the underlying cause, which is that the absence of humanly verifiable information for online entities prevents user authentication.
As an initial step in this endeavor, we consider the specific problem of how users can securely authenticate online identities (e.g., associate a Facebook ID with its owner). Based on prior social science research demonstrating that the strength of social ties is a useful indicator of trust in many real-world relationships, we explore how tie strength can be visualized using well-defined and measurable parameters. We then apply the visualization in the context of online friend invitations and propose a protocol for secure online identity authentication. We analyze the robustness of the protocol against adversaries who attempt to establish fraudulent online identities, and evaluate the usability in an actual implementation on a popular online social network (i.e., Facebook). We find that a tie-strength visualization is a useful primitive for online identity authentication.

description: There is a parameter ubiquitous throughout the deep learning world: learning rate. There is likewise a ubiquitous question: what should that learning rate be? The true answer to this question is often tedious and time consuming to obtain, and a great deal of arcane knowledge has accumulated in recent years over how to pick and modify learning rates to achieve optimal training performance. Moreover, the long hours spent carefully crafting the perfect learning rate can come to nothing the moment your network architecture, optimizer, dataset, or initial conditions change ever so slightly. But it need not be this way. We propose a new answer to the great learning rate question: the Autonomous Learning Rate Controller. Find it at https://github.com/fastestimator/ARC/tree/v2.0

description: Routing infrastructure plays a vital role in the Internet, and attacks on routers can be damaging in numerous ways. Compromised routers can drop, modify, mis-forward or reorder valid packets. However, existing proposals for secure forwarding require substantial computational overhead and additional capabilities at routers. We propose Secure Split Assignment Trajectory Sampling (SATS), a system that detects malicious routers on the data plane. SATS locates a set of suspicious routers when packets do not follow their predicted paths. SATS works with a traffic measurement platform using packet sampling, has low overhead on routers and is applicable to high-speed networks. Different subsets of packets are sampled over different groups of routers (called Split Range Assignment) to ensure attackers cannot completely evade detection. Our evaluation shows that SATS can significantly limit a malicious router’s harm to a small portion of traffic in a network.

Eltern und Kinder in überschuldeten Haushalten: Bewältigungsstrategien und Anknüpfungspunkte für die Soziale Arbeit

description: Überschuldung zieht neben den ökonomischen vielfältige soziale und psychische Folgen für die Betroffenen mit sich und führt zu Störungen in der Paarbeziehung und zu Erziehungsschwierigkeiten. Insbesondere, wenn Eltern durch die Überschuldung psychisch stark belastetet sind und beispielsweise Symptome einer Depression aufweisen, kann dies negative Auswirkungen auf deren Kinder haben. In dieser Arbeit wird deshalb der Frage nachgegangen, wie überschuldete Eltern den Familienalltag bewältigen und welche Auswirkungen die Situation aus Sicht der Eltern auf die im gleichen Haushalt lebenden Kinder hat. Weiter wird erforscht, wie Schuldenberatungsstellen betroffene Eltern unterstützen können. Um diese Fragen zu beantworten, wurde auf ein qualitatives Forschungsdesign abgestellt und wurden Eltern mittels des problemzentrierten Interviews (Witzel, 2000) befragt. Danach erfolgte eine inhaltsanalytische Datenauswertung. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die Eltern zwar psychisch stark belastet sind, sich aber meist der finanziellen Auswirkungen auf die Kinder bewusst sind, die sie so gering als möglich zu halten versuchen. Die Auswirkungen der psychischen Belastungen werden dagegen kaum thematisiert. Es sind jedoch genau diese Belastungen, die sich negativ auf die Kinder auswirken, da die Eltern ihnen gegenüber weniger zugewandt und fürsorglich sind. Entscheidend für die Situation in den Familien ist zudem, ob eine Perspektive auf ein schuldenfreies Leben besteht.

description: The CRESST experiment (Cryogenic Rare Event Search with Superconducting Thermometers) searches for dark matter via the phonon and light signals of elastic scattering processes in scintillating crystals. The discrimination between a possible dark matter signal and background is based on the light yield. We present a new method for evaluating the two characteristics of a phonon/light detector module that determine how much of the deposited energy is converted to scintillation light and how efficiently a module detects the produced light. In contrast to former approaches with dedicated setups, we developed a method which allows us to use data taken with the cryogenic setup, during a dark matter search phase. In this way, we accounted for the entire process that occurs in a detector module, and obtained information on the light emission of the crystal as well as information on the performance of the module (light transport and detection). We found that with the detectors operated in CRESST-II phase 1, about 20% of the produced scintillation light is detected. A part of the light is likely absorbed by creating meta-stable excitations in the scintillating crystals. The light not detected is not absorbed entirely, as an additional light detector can help to increase the fraction of detected light.

Pretendemos demonstrar que existia uma multiplicidade de funções a que correspondiam múltiplos cargos. A organização social dos santuários era complexa mas historicamente rica. Os templos mesopotâmicos ao longo dos vários períodos da sua história possuíam actividades diversas que podemos considerar como: a função sacerdotal, a função doméstica e a função administrativa. Tal como a sociedade, as suas instuições estavam socialmente estratificadas. É esse fenómeno que exemplificamos a partir das fontes documentais.

description: The main function of the lung is gas exchange. This function is essential for life and optimized by combining a large surface area in contact with air and a thin barrier for gas (O2/CO2) diffusion. An array of conductive tubes (conductive airways: trachea and bronchi) leads atmospheric air through convection to the distal (alveolar) side of the lung, where gas exchange happens by diffusion (through a pressure gradient). At the alveoli level, many physical forces also play a vital role during the respiratory cycle. To the elastic recoil of the lung, due to the pleura and chest recoil forces, elastic properties of the connective tissue of the alveolar septa should also be taken into account. In addition, alveoli should also overcome interfacial forces from the air-liquid interface they are exposed to. This is mainly the surface tension at the liquid lining layer or hypophase. This force is primarily counteracted by lung surfactant, a specific mix of lipids and proteins synthesized and secreted by specialized cells, the alveolar epithelial type 2 cell (AE2C). On the other hand, the focus of this work is a specific lung disease, lung fibrosis. is a severe disease characterized by chronic inflammation, myofibroblast accumulation, and excessive extracellular matrix deposition, resulting in the damage of lung structure and respiratory failure. In Europe alone, approximately 40,000 new cases are diagnosed each year; however, its prognosis is overall poor, with a median survival of 3–4 years. We hypothesized that: 1) surfactant dysfunction contributes to the early stages and progression of the disease and; 2) we could target lung surfactant dysfunction as a therapeutic approach. With the use of animal models, we concluded that lung surfactant dysfunction is an early event, where AE2C injury plays a key role and alveolar macrophages play an important role during the progression of the disease. In addition, knowing the timing of lung surfactant dysfunction, we performed surfactant replacement therapies in order to prevent or slow down the onset or progression of the disease. From the results presented in this work, we can conclude that exogenous surfactant has an anti-fibrotic effect, increasing the surface area of opened alveoli and reducing the septal wall thickness. We could observe the same effect when transplanting healthy AE2C in diseased animal lungs, in order to replace the inactivated lung surfactant with healthy synthesizing cells.

description: In 1908 Henri Poincaré gave a series of 'forgotten lectures' on wireless telegraphy in which he demonstrated the existence of a stable limit cycle in the phase plane. In 1929 Aleksandr Andronov published a short note in the Comptes Rendus in which he stated that there is a correspondence between the periodic solution of self-oscillating systems and the concept of stable limit cycles introduced by Poincaré. In this article Jean-Marc Ginoux describes these two major contributions to the development of non-linear oscillation theory and their reception in France.

description: A análise da Obra de Moacyr Scliar, escritor brasileiro do Rio Grande do Sul de origem judaica, pretende destacar a realidade por detrás da ficção, devendo ser analisado o homem a par da Obra. Escritor e personagens abraçam-se e contrapõe-se num espírito de autocrítica que figura por diversas vezes no suporte de papel. São abordadas as memórias históricas e questões identitárias, relacionadas com a exclusão versus inclusão dos judeus ashquenazim. Memórias que vivificam o problema da aculturação e preservação da religião e cultura judaicas. Para Scliar é a cultura judaica que deve prevalecer. Na literatura scliariana deparamo-nos com um confronto identitário ao longo de três gerações ashquenazim. Comportamentos e formas de estar diferentes que divergem entre uma atitude de errância e resignação, de contestação activa, esperança nacionalista e messiânica (na edificação de Eretz Israel) a uma atitude de alienação e dúvida identitáriapor parte dos que deambulam e frustram os sonhos dos seus avoengos. Em todos os estados Scliar consegue manter uma forte presença do judaísmo. A esperança messiânica, o humor corrosivo, o chassidismo e a culpa judaica, patentes nas diversas personagens tipo, dinamizam a literatura de Scliar e fortalecem a vertente cultural judaica.

description: Aims: In acute heart failure (AHF), changes of venous haemoglobin (Hb) concentrations, haematocrit (Hct), and estimated plasma volume (ePV) have been proposed as surrogates of decongestion. These estimates are based on the theoretical assumptions that changes of Hb concentrations and Hct are driven by the intravascular volume status and that the intravascular Hb pool remains stable. The objective of this study was to assess the relationship of changes of measured plasma volume (mPV) with changes of Hb, Hct, and ePV in AHF. Methods and results: We studied 36 AHF patients, who received two sequential assessments of mPV, measured red cell volume (mRCV) and measured total blood volume (mTBV) (48 h apart), during the course of diuretic therapy using a novel visible fluorescent injectate (VFI) technique based on the indicator dilution principle. Changes of ePV were calculated based on the Kaplan-Hakim or Strauss formula. AHF patients receiving diuretics (median intravenous furosemide equivalent 160 mg/48 h) displayed a wide range of changes of mPV (-25.4% to +37.0%). Changes in mPV were not significantly correlated with changes of Hb concentration [Pearson's r (r) = -0.241, P = 0.157], Hct (r = -0.307, P = 0.069), ePV(Kaplan-Hakim) (r = 0.228, P = 0.182), or ePV(strauss) (r = 0.237, P = 0.163). In contrast to theoretical assumptions, changes of mTBV were poorly correlated with changes of Hb concentrations and some patients displayed unanticipated variability of mRCV, suggesting an unstable intravascular red cell pool. Conclusions: Changes of Hb or Hct were not reflective of directly measured changes of intravascular volume status in AHF patients. Basing clinical assessment of decongestion on changes of Hb or Hct may misguide clinical decision-making on an individual patient level.

description: Scaling up linear-optics quantum computing will require multi-photon gates which are compact, phase-stable, exhibit excellent quantum interference, and have success heralded by the detection of ancillary photons. We investigate implementation of the optimal known gate design which meets these requirements: the Knill controlled-Z gate, implemented in integrated laser-written waveguide arrays. We show that device performance is more sensitive to the small deviations in the coupler reflectivity, arising due to the tolerance values of the fabrication method, than phase variations in the circuit. The mode fidelity was also shown to be less sensitive to reflectivity and phase errors than process fidelity. Our best device achieves a fidelity of 0.931+/-0.001 with the ideal 4x4 unitary circuit and a process fidelity of 0.680+/-0.005 with the ideal computational-basis process.

description: A paz é um tema amplamente abordado pela Religião. A vida cotidiana enfrenta várias situações de conflito, que requerem soluções focadas mais na solidariedade do que na violência. Muito frequentemente, a negociação estabelece uma possibilidade de solução que busca pela justiça. Assim, este trabalho, à luz de uma análise na categoria «negociação» terá como ponto de partida a passagem bíblica de 1 Samuel 25,18-35. Como teoria principal, usará a contribuição de Herkenhoff (1990) sobre o valor universal da«igualdade», que é relacionada em repúdio à discriminação e à rejeição à intolerância. A paz, em um sentido mais amplo, está relacionada com a sobrevivência, bem estar, identidadee liberdade. Assim, a fim de promover a paz, a religião baseada na negociação pode contribuir àquela, fazendo as pessoas se sentirem mais seguras e mais satisfeitas.

description: With the widespread adoption of smartphones, mobile applications have gained mainstream popularity. However, the potential privacy and security risks associated with using mobile apps are quite high, as smartphones become increasingly integrated with our lives, being able to access our email, social networking accounts, financial information, personal photos, and even our cars and homes. To address this problem, we introduce AppScanner, an automated cloud-based service based on crowdsourcing and traditional security approaches to analyze mobile applications. Considering the large and growing number of mobile applications, our envisioned service builds on crowdsourcing, virtualization, and automation to enable large-scale analysis of apps. AppScanner provides end-users with more understandable information regarding what mobile apps are really doing on their devices. This paper offers an overview of our vision for building AppScanner, as well as work to date in specific components, including automated traversal and monitoring of mobile applications, and interactive visual presentation of app traversal results. Armed with transparent and descriptive information regarding app behavior, users can make better decisions when installing and running apps.

description: This paper presents a new approach for a vocoder design based on full frequency masking by octaves in addition to a technique for spectral filling via beta probability distribution. Some psycho-acoustic characteristics of human hearing - inaudibility masking in frequency and phase - are used as a basis for the proposed algorithm. The results confirm that this technique may be useful to save bandwidth in applications requiring intelligibility. It is recommended for the legal eavesdropping of long voice conversations.

description: In Multiple Sclerosis (MS), there is a large discrepancy between the clinical observations and how the pathology is exhibited on brain images, this is known as the clinical-radiological paradox (CRP). One of the hypotheses is that the clinical deficit may be more related to the spinal cord damage than the number or location of lesions in the brain. Therefore, investigating how the spinal cord is damaged becomes an acute challenge to better understand and overcome the CRP. Diffusion MRI is known to provide quantitative figures of neuronal degeneration and axonal loss, in the brain as well as in the spinal cord. In this paper, we propose to investigate how diffusion MRI metrics vary in the different cervical regions with the progression of the disease. We first study the reproducibility of diffusion MRI on healthy volunteers with a test-retest procedure using both standard diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and multi-compartment Ball-and-Stick models. Then, based on the test re-test quantitative calibration, we provide quantitative figures of pathology evolution between M0 and M12 in the cervical spine on a set of 31 MS patients, exhibiting how the pathology damage spans in the cervical spinal cord.

description: Mesoscopic fluctuations and correlations of the local density of states are studied near metal-insulator transitions in disordered interacting electronic systems. We show that the multifractal behavior of the local density of states survives in the presence of Coulomb interaction. We calculate the spectrum of multifractal exponents in $2+ε$ spatial dimensions for symmetry classes characterized by broken (partially or fully) spin-rotation invariance and show that it differs from that in the absence of interaction. We also estimate the multifractal exponents at the Anderson metal-insulator transition in 2D systems with preserved spin-rotation invariance. Our results for multifractal correlations of the local density of states are in qualitative agreement with recent experimental findings.

description: Frontline workers have the discretion to extend public services beyond their formal job requirements, yet little is known about the influence of client characteristics on this behaviour. Using a large-scale conjoint design with 1,507 Danish high-school teachers, we uncover how teachers willingly exceed their job expectations when encountering students who demonstrate effort (e.g. handing in assignments) or low well-being (e.g. feeling lonely). However, their willingness diminishes as requested behaviours deviate further from job expectations. Our study highlights the factors driving extra-role behaviours and underscore the importance of recognizing ‘invisible frontline work’.

description: A new technology known as Virtual Traffic Lights (VTL) was recently proposed as a self-organizing new paradigm for traffic management. This new technology uses the vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications as its premise. VTL can revolutionize traffic management in urban areas as it can substantially reduce commute time of urban workers, increase productivity, and lead to a greener environment. In a VTL environment, vehicles self-organize to elect a leader which serves as a virtualtraffic light to decide the right of way at that intersection, thus replacing the current physical traffic lights. Implementing VTL technology with partial penetration, however, is an outstanding issue that needs to be addressed. This paper addresses this issue by proposing a co-existence model whereby VTL equipped vehicles can co-exist with vehicles that do not have VTL. Simulation results show that the transition model proposed here could provide drivers with strong incentives to adopt the VTL technology.

description: State-of-the-art impact dynamics models either apply for free-flying objects or do not account that a robotic manipulator is commonly high-stiffness controlled. Thus, we lack tailor-made models for manipulators mounted on a fixed base. Focusing on orthogonal point-to-surface impacts (no tangential velocities), we revisit two main elements of an impact dynamics model: the contact-force model and the inverse inertia matrix. We collect contact-force measurements by impacting a 7 DOF Panda robot against a sensorized rigid environment with various joint configurations and velocities. Evaluating the measurements from 150 trials, the best model-to-data matching suggests a viscoelastic contact-force model and computing the inverse inertia matrix assuming the robot is a composite-rigid body.

description: In 2007, the organisation where this Quality Improvement project took place, was officially designated as a Centre of Excellence for Head and Neck Cancer Services. As a result, the Head and Neck Oncology Clinic and Surgical Department within the organisation receives high volumes of referrals. The data analysed for this study included 22 patients (n=22) who attended the Head and Neck Oncology Clinic between November to December 2021. Of this cohort of patients, the data revealed that over 50% of the referrals failed to document the fundamental referral criteria as stipulated by the National Cancer Control Programme for a suspected head and neck malignancy. This affected the assessment of the patient’s clinical status prior to attending the clinic. On examination of the referral forms, it was evident that there was insufficient detail to determine if the referrals received were deemed as urgent or routine. Secondly, the data exposed that 64% of the included sample (n=14) were waiting more than two weeks for their initial appointment to the clinic. The quality improvement therefore recommended was to enhance the quality of the referrals received through the creation of a custom-based referral form. The Lean Six Sigma Model with the DMAIC framework was utilised, along with additional quality improvement tools to aid in the completion of this project and proposed improvement plan for the organisation.

description: We present an adaptive graph filtering approach to semi-supervised classification. Adaptive graphfilters combine decisions from multiple graph filters using a weighting function that is optimized in a semi-supervised manner. We also demonstrate the multiresolution property of adaptive graph filters by connecting them to the diffusion wavelets. In our experiments, we apply the adaptive graph filters to theclassification of online blogs and damage identification in indirect bridge structural health monitoring.
Esforços no diálogo ecuménico inter-religioso e intereclesial

description: De uma forma sumária, apresentam-se os passos encetados no caminho da reconciliação religiosa. Têm sido, quase sempre, passos de iniciativa arrojada e temerária, porém, sem a correspondente e generalizada mobilização que enforma a utópica vontadedos pioneiros. No entanto, distanciados cerca de um século das primeiras iniciativas conciliatórias – ponderando os esforços empenhados e avaliados alguns dos efeitos – talvez se possa concluir que não se chegou ainda aonde se pretendia, mas que se descobriram aspectos de uma evolução que se desconhecia. Muitos desses aspectos do movimento, conhecido por Ecumenismo, emergiram reconfigurados por uma evolução que, nos primórdios, não se adivinhava. O vocábulo que, desde a sua origem, assumiu conotações diversificadas — geográfico-cultural (em meiogrego), geográfico-político-cultural (em meio romano), geográfico-político-religioso-cultural (em meio cristão) — transformou-se, pelo crisol histórico, em designação de modelo de unidade religiosa (dos cristãos), eclesial (das igrejas) ou secular (da Humanidade).

description: Real-time system level implementations of complex Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) image reconstruction algorithms have always been challenging due to their data intensive characteristics. In this paper, we propose a basis vector transform based novel algorithm to alleviate the data intensity and a 3D-stacked logic in memory based hardware accelerator as the implementation platform. Experimental results indicate that this proposed algorithm/hardware co-optimized system can achieve an accuracy of 91 dB PSNR compared to a reference algorithm implemented in Matlab and energy efficiency of 72 GFLOPS/W for a 8k×8k SAR image reconstruction.

description: Objectives: Positive predictive values (PPVs) and negative predictive values (NPVs) are frequently reported to put estimates of accuracy of a diagnostic test in clinical context and to obtain risk estimates for a given patient taking into account baseline prevalence in the population. In order to calculate PPV and NPV, tests with ordinally or continuously scaled results are commonly dichotomized at the expense of a loss of information. Methods: Extending the rationale for the calculation of PPV and NPV, Bayesian theorem is used to calculate the probability of disease given the outcome of a continuously or ordinally scaled test. Probabilities of test results conditional on disease status are modeled in a Bayesian framework and subsequently transformed to probabilities of disease status conditional on test result. Results Using publicly available data, probability of a clinical depression diagnosis given PROMIS Depression scores was estimated. Comparison with PPV and NPV based on dichotomized scores shows that a more fine-grained interpretation of test scores is possible. Conclusions: The proposed method bears the chance to facilitate accurate and meaningful interpretation of test results in clinical settings by avoiding unnecessary dichotomization of test scores.
20 propositions a propos du dialogue islamo-chrétien

description: Está patente que um dos conflitos mais sangrentos e retumbantes da actualidade e, por consequência, o diálogo mais premente hoje em dia, são os que implicam as sociedades cristãs e muçulmanas. Depois de sublinhar os laços de afinidade religiosa, cultural e civilizacional que ligam o islamismo ao cristianismo, as duas religiões mais “universalistas” do planeta, o autorconvida-nos a situar a presente confrontação no quadro global das relações históricas e políticas dos tempos modernos e actuais, com vista a aclarar a verdadeira naturezada questão e melhor focar os desafios imediatos do diálogo. Ele analisa assim os diferentes “choques” sofridos pelas sociedades muçulmanas, há mais de dois séculos, sob o impacto do colonialismo e da hegemonia excessiva e arrogantedo Ocidente. Denuncia também a tendência a ver apenas os aspectos negativos do islão actual, fruto da conjuntura do momento, e “substancializar” os respectivos elementos. Na verdade, as regressões a que se assiste hoje devem-se às circunstâncias sócio-políticas evocadas e não se podem imputar à essência do islamismo. Para concluir, invocam-se as condições objectivas de todo o diálogo sincero: fim de todo o tipo de domínio; autocrítica; ausência de preconceitos e abertura à “memória histórica” do Outro; convívio tolerante e procura humilde dos pontos comuns; igualdade real e partilha solidária das riquezas materiais e dos recursos naturais e tecnológicos, tal como do espaço vital...
