Software reliability reckoning by applying neural network algorithm

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Software reliability is the outlook of fault-free activity of software for a specified period in a specified environment. Many researches are conducted for increasing the software reliability. The processes in order to increase the software reliability can be determined in three steps such as-software representation, software evaluation and software amendment. Each of these processes is very much essential in order to improve the reliability of the software. The software is one of the most vital parts of many commercial, industrial and military operations. As the software is now being applied in many safety-critical systems, therefore it has become a significant research area. In order to assess the software engineering technologies, software reliability measure is used. Many metrics are proposed for enhancing the software reliability. Machine learning approaches are the most appropriate ways for evaluating several bounds of software reliability. In this research paper, the authors have implemented 14 training algorithms accessible in NNtool box in MATLAB on a cost-effectively accessible dataset which is UIMS. The training algorithms present in NNtool box creates, trains and simulates the network. Moreover, the performance was estimated based on R2 value. Nevertheless, the experimental outcomes demonstrated that TRAINBR algorithm was found to be the best amidst all the training algorithms present in NNtool box. Furthermore, the results denote that neural network technique can be efficiently used for reliability assessment.
Performance of Superconducting Oscillators and Filters

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

With improved understanding of loss mechanisms in superconducting resonant circuits (SRC), it is possible to design a variety of devices which take advantage of the high Q. Superconducting surface resistance, trapped-flux loss, and residual losses which are annealable can all be related to the superconductor itself. Dielectric dissipation is well enough understood to permit this source of loss to be minimized. Coupling and radiation losses can be made negligible. SRC's are described with a variety of geometries to fill the range from 10 MHz to 10 GHz. Type-I superconductors provide the highest Q's and are readily fabricated by several techniques. The superconducting resonator can be tuned accurately in frequency by temperature control of the surface reactance as well as the dielectric constant of liquid helium. An external magnetic field can be used to tune the bandwidth as well as the resonant frequency. A quarter-wave reentrant cavity is ideally suited for use as an optically tuned frequency-control element. This is accomplished using the photodielectric effect in high-resistivity semiconductor wafers which terminate the stub. Wide-bandwidth optical communication detectors are described using semiconductors with short recombination lifetime. Oscillators have been built which are optically tuned, and others which have frequency stabilities as good as commercial frequency counters. Use of SRC's to study material properties at low temperature is emphasized.
Computed tomographic Assessment of Lateral Lamella of Cribiform Plate and Comparison of Depth of Olfactory Fossa

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

INTRODUCTION: Endoscopic sinus surgery is an upcoming branch in rhinological practice but with some major risks since it has to play around the skull base area. Lateral lamella of cribriform plate is the thinnest area of the skull base. Thus this study is undertaken to evaluate the height of lateral lamella of cribriform plate and the depth of olfactory fossae by the help of computed tomographic images. METHODS: Computed tomographic study of 50 patients was done in Advanced Imaging and Diagnostic center, Kathmandu Medical College. Coronal sections at the centre of infra-orbital foramina were taken as reference slide. The height of cribriform plate point was subtracted from the height of medial ethmoidal roof point to measure the length of lateral lamella of cribriform plates on both sides. RESULTS: The median height of LLCP in 100 slides was 2.8 mm. LLCP height was 0 to 3.9 mm in 86 slides, 4 to 7 mm in 12 slides and greater than 7mm in 2 slides. The LLCP length was greater in right side in 28 (56%) patients and was greater in left side in 19 (38%) patients. It was equal in both sides in only three patients (6%). CONCLUSIONS: As regards the length of LLCP; 0 to 3.9 mm length was most common. The olfactory fossa depth was more in the right side compared to the left side. Thus, right side is more vulnerable to injury during surgery. Thus adequate caution has to be exercised by the rhinological surgeon during endoscopic sinus surgery. Keywords: lateral lamella of Cribriform plate, medical ethmoidal roof, olfactory fossa.
Atypical epithelial changes in the uterine cervix

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Atypical epithelium, i.e. , epithelium showing changes just insufficient to warrant a diagnosis of carcinoma in situ , was re-studied in surgical material from 66 patients. Most of these specimens had originally been reported as suspicious or potentially malignant. Of the 66 patients, 62 were alive and 46 of these were `untreated' having had no treatment to the cervix since the original operation. Thirty-seven of the 66 were examined personally, 28 of these being `untreated'; nineteen were found to have gynaecological abnormalities. Cytological examination was performed on 36, with only one suspicious smear; none of these patients was found to have invasive carcinoma or carcinoma in situ. Of the remaining 25 patients not seen personally, all were considered by their doctors to be free of any significant cervical lesion. The incidence of progression from atypical epithelium to carcinoma in situ is so different in the published reports that the definitions must surely be different. Sections from 15 cases of carcinoma in situ were therefore submitted to seven skilled pathologists, and as only 70 out of 105 diagnoses came into this category, the need for agreed definition is obvious. The present study shows a depressing persistence of the original or similar complaint. The follow-up (average 7·4 years) suggests that atypical epithelial change is unlikely to progress to carcinoma.
Increase of Peripheral Blood B Cells with Fc Receptor for IgA in Patients with IgA Nephropathy

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

A B‐cell subset with Fc receptors for IgA (Bα cells) has been observed in human peripheral blood. To investigate aberrations of B cells in a diseased state, the percentages of Bα cells were enumerated in peripheral blood from patients with IgA nephropathy, which is characterized by preponderant deposition of IgA‐dominant immune complexes in the glomerular mesangial area. The present study showed a significant increase in Bα cells in peripheral blood from patients with IgA nephropathy but not in those with chronic proliferative glomerulo‐nephritis without mesangial IgA deposition. Most FcαR‐bearing cells were observed in surface IgA bearing lymphocytes. No linear correlation was observed between the levels of serum IgA and the percentages of Bα cells. The addition of aggregated IgA to cultures did not induce FcαR‐bearing B cells in vitro. It is postulated that Bα cells might have some pathogenetic role in the development of IgA nephropathy and that some antigenic stimuli might play a role in the increase of peripheral blood Bα cells in patients with IgA nephropathy.
A Comprehensive Overview of GPU Accelerated Databases

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Over the past decade, the landscape of data analytics has seen a notable shift towards heterogeneous architectures, particularly the integration of GPUs to enhance overall performance. In the realm of in-memory analytics, which often grapples with memory bandwidth constraints, the adoption of GPUs has proven advantageous, thanks to their superior bandwidth capabilities. The parallel processing prowess of GPUs stands out, providing exceptional efficiency for data-intensive workloads and outpacing traditional CPUs in terms of data processing speed. While GPU databases capitalize on these strengths, there remains a scarcity of comparative studies across different GPU systems. In light of this emerging interest in GPU databases for data analytics, this paper proposes a survey encompassing multiple GPU database systems. The focus will be on elucidating the underlying mechanisms employed to deliver results and key performance metrics, utilizing benchmarks such as SSB and TPCH. This undertaking aims to shed light on new avenues for research within the realm of GPU databases.
The Hundred-Year-Old Question: Can American Cinema Be Saved?

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The Art House Convergence conference annually brings together hundreds of independent theater owners and supporters of arthouse cinema during the days preceding the Sundance Film Festival. When the organizers invited James Schamus to deliver the keynote address at their 2016 gathering, it was a commission he did not relish. The expected argument of such speeches is pretty much set in stone these days: cinema, understood primarily as feature films meant initially for theatrical exhibition, is under attack, and the keynote speaker's task is to rally the troops in its defense, soliciting applause for recent victories on the battlefield, and railing against the encroachments of the enemies of film, in particular the digital streaming services whose assaults on the sanctity of the theatrical viewing experience, and thus on the aesthetic object known as the theatrical film, grow ever more ferocious with each passing year. Schamus took on the task of delivering that speech, and then transforming it into this article for FQ. He concludes with a rousing plea to all regarding what he terms, “This vicious spiral of longer movies, higher costs and higher ticket prices,” that can only spell disaster for the supporter of truly independent American cinema. Schamus urges readers to stand with him (and all who love the genuine American film experience), to advocate for vibrant, varied, open-ended, hybrid, serial and ongoing open storytelling and entertainment.
Examining relationship quality across three types of relationship agreements

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

While past studies have measured several indicators of relationship quality in relation to types of relationship agreement, most have not included polyamorous relationships, and have almost exclusively included samples of gay men. The purpose of this study was to address this gap by examining five dimensions of relationship quality and eight dimensions of relationship equity in a sexually diverse Canadian sample (N = 3463) across three types of relationship agreements (monogamous, open, and polyamorous). The data were collected online as part of a larger study. In order to compare relationship types on relationship dimensions, MANCOVAs were computed using age, relationship duration, cohabitation status, sex, sexual orientation, and an interaction term of sex and sexual orientation as control variables. High scores of relationship quality and equity were reported by the overall sample, and scores on all scales did not significantly differ by types of relationship agreements. Overall, these results strongly suggest that these types of relationship agreements are equally healthy viable options.
Exploring the Problem-Finding and Problem-Solving Approach for Designing Organizations

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

An emerging problem-finding and problem-solving approach suggests that management's discovering problems to solve, opportunities to seize, and challenges to respond to, are vital to organizations. This paper explores the extent to which the problem-finding and problem-solving approach can provide a foundation for joining the capabilities, dynamic capabilities, and governance perspectives as a way to help scholars and practitioners to coherently design organizations from the perspective of design science. The problem-finding and problem-solving approach offers a unit of analysis and a set of behavioral assumptions that enable us to address open questions within the extant literature and to propose new questions in management research.
Abstract 10918: Sex Differences in the Association of Triglyceride Glucose Index in Patients With Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background: Insulin resistance is associated with cardiovascular disease due to direct or associated risk factors. We aimed to investigate the association of the Triglyceride glucose (TyG) index, as the surrogate marker of insulin resistance and obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) between sex, especially for patients without diabetes. Methods: Patients with stable angina pectoris requiring invasive coronary angiography were enrolled, and they were divided into two groups according to the TyG index (ln[triglyceride x fasting plasma glucose]/2). Obstructive CAD was defined according to invasive coronary angiography results. Results: Patients with a higher TyG index (TyG index≧8.60) were associated with higher BMI, the prevalence of hypertension (HTN), diabetes mellitus (DM), and abnormal lipid profile compared with lower TyG index (TyG index < 8.60). In women without diabetes, higher TyG index patients had a greater prevalence of obstructive CAD than the lower TyG index group (19.5% vs. 37.7%, p-value: 0.011). There was no difference in the majority of obstructive CAD in male patients between lower and higher TyG index. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, a higher TyG index remained the independent association of obstructive CAD only in women without diabetes (adjusted odds ratio (OR): 2.568, 95% CI: 1.238-5.327, p= 0.011) but not in the DM group. Conclusion: Higher TyG index, a marker of insulin resistance, was significantly related to a higher risk of obstructive CAD with gender disparity in patients without diabetes. Further larger-scale studies are needed to confirm our findings.
Successful mechanical thrombectomy using a combined technique for internal carotid artery occlusion with persistent primitive trigeminal artery

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background: The prevalence of persistent primitive trigeminal artery (PPTA) has been reported to be 0.1–0.6%. We report the successful recanalization of internal carotid artery (ICA) without embolization to new vascular territory (ENT) using a combined technique in a case of ICA occlusion with PPTA. Case Description: A 65-year-old female presented with sudden consciousness disorder. The Glasgow Coma Scale score was 7 (E1, V1, M5) and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score was 28. Magnetic resonance diffusion-weighted imaging showed areas of high signal intensity in the left frontal lobe, parietal lobe, insular cortex, and corona radiata. Magnetic resonance angiography showed occlusion of the left ICA distal to a PPTA. We performed mechanical thrombectomy (MT) using a combined technique with a balloon guide catheter (BGC), aspiration catheter, and stent retriever and achieved complete recanalization without ENT. The patient experienced a good postoperative recovery course. At 6 months, her Modified Rankin Scale score was 2. Conclusion: MT using a combined technique with BGC would be useful to prevent embolization to the posterior circulation through the PPTA in cases of ICA occlusion with PPTA.
Feasibility and predictors of change of Narrative Exposure Therapy for displaced populations: A repeated measures design

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

Abstract

Background: Displaced victims of interpersonal violence, such as refugees, asylum seekers, and victims of sexual exploitation, are growing in numbers, and are often suffering from a posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). At the same time these victims are known to benefit less from trauma-focused therapy (TFT), and to be less compliant to treatment. The objective of this paper is to describe the rationale and research protocol of an ongoing trial that aims to evaluate different variables that might influence the feasibility of TFT for the study population. Specifically, perceived daily stress, emotion regulation, and mood are investigated as predictors of change in PTSD symptoms during a trauma-focused therapy (Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET)). The feasibility of administering measures tapping these constructs repeatedly during treatment will also be evaluated. Methods/design: Using an observational treatment design, 80 displaced victims of interpersonal violence will be measured before, during, and after partaking in NET. Several questionnaires tapping PTSD plus the aforementioned possible predictors of PTSD change will be administered: Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Checklist-5, Perceived Stress Scale, Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale-18 (pre-test, post-test, and follow-up),subscale impulsivity of the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale-18, Perceived Stress Scale short version, Primary Care Posttraumatic Stress Disorder and a single Mood item (each session). Multilevel modelling will be used to examine the relation between the possible predictors and treatment outcome.Discussion: The present study is the first to examine the interplay of facilitating and interfering factors possibly impacting treatment feasibility and effectiveness in displaced victims of interpersonal violence with PTSD receiving NET, using repeated measures. The current study can help to improve future treatment based on individual characteristics. Trial registration: Netherlands Trial Register: NTR7353, retrospectively registered. Date of registration: July 11th 2018.
Examining Cultural Responsiveness in Large-Scale Assessment: The Matrix of Evidence for Validity Argumentation

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

As cultural products, assessment systems, and instruments are a reflection of the cultures in which they originate and reproduce the characteristics of those cultures. Accordingly, cultural responsiveness in large-scale assessment concerns the entire process of assessment, not simply its tests or the analysis of test scores. This paper focuses on validity as argumentation in the testing of culturally diverse populations in both national and international large-scale assessment programs. It examines the intersection of m procedural assumptions (conceptual and methodological criteria that need to be met in order to validly, fairly test culturally diverse populations), and n components of the process of assessment. The paper explains the development and use of the matrix of evidence for validity argumentation. In this matrix, a cell [i, j] contains confirming and disconfirming evidence that Procedural Assumption i is met by the practices enacted and the artifacts used or generated in Assessment Process Component j. An argument of validity is constructed by integrating the information contained in the cells of the matrix. A series of examples illustrate how each procedural assumption intersects with each assessment process component in the matrix. These examples show the ubiquity of cultural issues in assessment. Attaining cultural responsiveness in large-scale national and international assessment programs entails a serious systemic, societal, global effort.
ALMA Observations of Massive Clouds in the Central Molecular Zone: Jeans Fragmentation and Cluster Formation

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

Abstract We report Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) Band 6 continuum observations of 2000 au resolution toward four massive molecular clouds in the Central Molecular Zone of the Galaxy. To study gas fragmentation, we use the dendrogram method to identify cores as traced by the dust continuum emission. The four clouds exhibit different fragmentation states at the observed resolution despite having similar masses at the cloud scale (∼1–5 pc). Assuming a constant dust temperature of 20 K, we construct core mass functions of the clouds and find a slightly top-heavy shape as compared to the canonical initial mass function, but we note several significant uncertainties that may affect this result. The characteristic spatial separation between the cores as identified by the minimum spanning tree method, ∼10 4 au, and the characteristic core mass, 1–7 , are consistent with predictions of thermal Jeans fragmentation. The three clouds showing fragmentation may be forming OB associations (stellar mass ∼10 3 ). None of the four clouds under investigation seem to be currently able to form massive star clusters like the Arches and the Quintuplet (≳10 4 ), but they may form such clusters by further gas accretion onto the cores.
Compact thermal network model of the electro-thermal system

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

The accurate prediction of operating temperatures of temperature sensitive electronic parts at the component, package, board, and system level CFD simulations has engaged the engineering community for a number of years. The primary challenge has been that near-exact physical models of such components (known as detailed thermal models, or DTMs) are difficult or implement directly in system designs due toe the wide disparity in length scales involved, which results in large computational inefficiencies. A compact thermal model (CTM) attempts to solve this problem by taking a detailed model and extracting an abstracted, far less grid intensive representation that is still able to preserve accuracy in predicting the temperatures at key points in the package, such as the junction. In this paper, we present a compact thermal network model to represent the multi dimensional heat flow system as a network based on the thermal interface material (TIM) measurement apparatus. In order to estimate the heat flow division on each heat transfer path, thermal impedance and temperature difference between junction node and adjacent node are used. This model also can be extended to estimate the thermal interface resistance in joints and heat transfer coefficient variation of the multidimensional heat flow system.

High-Rise Building Evacuation Simulation Based on Physical Stamina of Evacuees

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Currently, high-rise buildings are being continuously constructed, and thus, it is necessary to predict evacuation safety in advance in case of emergency situations in high-rise buildings. However, current studies focus only on the movement of individuals in evacuation situations for predicting the final evacuation time. Therefore, in this study, a simulation of realistic evacuation in high-rise buildings was performed based on characteristics such as the physical stamina of evacuees. The evacuation simulation was performed on the world's tallest high-rise building, Burj Khalifa, and comparative verification was performed with and without consideration of the physical stamina of evacuees. The results of the simulation indicated that the total evacuation time significantly increases when physical stamina is considered. Hence, realistic evacuation in high-rise buildings is possible when the stamina of evacuees is considered.
