Towards personalised public service co-creation using core vocabularies

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

The provision of public services is at the heart of public authorities operations as it directly affects citizens' lives and the prosperity of the society as a whole. The opening of public services promotes transparency and could potentially facilitate citizens' participation in public services co-creation. The opening of public services can be fostered by using a public service model for structuring public services descriptions. Additionally, the use of a standard public service model can also facilitate semantic interoperability between public service catalogues or eGovernment information systems. European Commission has developed a core vocabulary, namely Core Public Service Vocabulary, as the European standard for public service modeling. However, Core Public Service Vocabulary cannot fully support personalised public service co-creation. The aim of this paper is to propose an enhancement of the Core Public Service Vocabulary by reusing classes from other core vocabularies and from the literature in order to support public service personalisation and co-creation. A usage scenario of the enhanced Core Public Service Vocabulary utilizing the "Get a passport" public service is demonstrated as a proof of concept.
Transaksi Online dan Pembayaran Cash On Delivery (COD) Ditinjau dari Kitab Undang Undang Hukum Perdata

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

The development of information technology has driven changes in society’s transaction patterns, one of which is online transactions. Although electronic payment systems are increasingly common, the Cash on Delivery (COD) method remains popular due to its perceived safety and practicality. However, this method also raises legal issues, particularly concerning consumer protection and dispute resolution. This study aims to examine online transactions and COD payments based on the Indonesian Civil Code (KUH Perdata), as well as to analyze the dispute resolution procedures that may arise. The research method used is normative legal research with a statutory and conceptual approach. The results show that COD transactions constitute valid agreements if they meet the conditions outlined in Article 1320 of the Civil Code. However, in practice, cases of breach of contract and unlawful acts are still frequently found. Dispute resolution may be pursued through court litigation or alternative dispute resolution (ADR). In conclusion, legal protection for consumers in COD transactions needs to be strengthened through clearer and more specific regulations to ensure consumer rights remain protected.
Characterization of a Slow‐Migrating Component of the Rabies Virus Matrix Protein Strongly Associated with the Viral Glycoprotein

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

Abstract We investigated multiple forms of rabies virus matrix (M) protein. Under non‐reducing electrophoretic conditions, we detected, in addition to major bands of monomer forms (23‐ and 24‐kDa) of M protein, an M antigen‐positive slow‐migrating minor band (about 54 kDa) in both the virion and infected cells. Relative contents of the 54‐kDa and monomer components in the virion were about 20–30% and 70–80% of the whole M protein, respectively, while the content of the 54‐kDa component was smaller (about 10–20% of the total M protein) in the cell than in the virion. The 54‐kDa components could be extracted from the infected cells with sodium deoxycholate, but they were quite resistant to extraction with 1% non‐ionic detergents by which most monomer components were solubilized. The 54‐kDa component was precipitated more efficiently than the monomer by a monoclonal antibody (mAb; #3‐9‐16), which recognized a linear epitope located at the N‐terminal of the M protein. The mAb #3‐9‐16 coprecipitated the viral glycoprotein (G), which was demonstrated to be due to strong association between the G and 54‐kDa component of the M protein. Monomers and the 54‐kDa polypeptide migrated to the same isoelectric point (pI) in two‐dimensional (2‐D) gel electrophoresis, implicating that the 54‐kDa component was composed of component(s) of the same pI as that of the M protein monomers. From these results, we conclude that the M antigen‐positive 54‐kDa polypeptide is a homodimer of M protein, taking an N‐terminal‐exposed conformation, and is strongly associated with the viral glycoprotein. Possible association with a membrane microdomain of the cell will be discussed.
Speech Naturalness and Prolonged-Speech Treatments for Stuttering

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

It is well known that unusual speech quality may result from stuttering treatments that are based on prolonged speech. However, empirical information concerning the speech quality associated with those treatments is lacking. The present study was designed to contribute such empirical information. Results indicated that speech quality assessments of posttreatment clients, using Martin, Haroldson, and Triden's (1984) speech naturalness scale, gave similar results regardless of whether they were based on monologues or conversations. The speech quality of those clients remained stable at the conclusion of their treatment program. Further, there was a significant, positive correlation between pretreatment speech measures and measures of speech naturalness made after the establishment of stutter-free speech. The subjects whose pretreatment stuttering was the most severe had posttreatment speech naturalness scores that were more than two scale values worse than the subjects whose pretreatment stuttering was the least severe. Speech naturalness scale scores are presented for nonstutterers and posttreatment stutterers and these data are compared with existing findings.
Sleep directly following learning benefits consolidation of spatial associative

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

The last decade has brought forth convincing evidence for a role of sleep in non-declarative memory. A similar function of sleep in episodic memory is supported by various correlational studies, but direct evidence is limited. Here we show that cued recall of face–location associations is significantly higher following a 12-h retention interval containing sleep than following an equally long period of waking. Furthermore, retention is significantly higher over a 24-h sleep–wake interval than over an equally long wake–sleep interval. This difference occurs because retention during sleep was significantly better when sleep followed learning directly, rather than after a day of waking. These data demonstrate a beneficial effect of sleep on memory that cannot be explained solely as a consequence of reduced interference. Rather, our findings suggest a competitive consolidation process, in which the fate of a memory depends, at least in part, on its relative stability at sleep onset: Strong memories tend to be preserved, while weaker memories erode still further. An important aspect of memory consolidation may thus result from the removal of irrelevant memory “debris.” In recent years, compelling evidence has been found to support a role of sleep in the consolidation of non-declarative memory

Renal Involvement and Outcomes in Severe COVID-19 Patients After Stem Cell Jet-Nebulization

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic presented an unprecedented challenge to identify effective drugs and means for their prevention and management. It is more difficult in severe cases due to complications in various vital organs such as the kidneys. Methods: An analytical study was carried out within the framework of the clinical trial “SENTAD-COVID Study” (ClinicalTrial.org, NCT04473170), whose objective was to describe acute kidney injury (AKI) in severe patients with COVID-19 and its relationship with clinical outcomes. A novel stem cells treatment for COVID-19 patients using an autologous peripheral blood nonhematopoietic-enriched stem cells cocktail was developed by the research team of the Abu Dhabi Stem Cells Center and applied at four Abu Dhabi Health Service Company hospitals. The sample consisted of the severe COVID-19 recruited patients: 20 in the experimental arm (Group A) and 24 controls (Group B). Both groups received COVID-19 standard treatment. Results: 29.5% of the patients studied suffered AKI. Mortality was lower in group A compared to the control group (20% vs. 30%, respectively), group A showed 25% AKI while group B 35%, sepsis was significantly lower in the treated group A compared to controls (25% vs. 35%; p=0.0095) Hazard Ratio=0.38, (95% CI: 0.16–0.86), given a Number Needed to Treat=2.5 patients. Group A had a significant reduction in inflammation markers at 25 days compared to the day of recruitment: C-Reactive Protein (median: 207.05 mg/L vs. 27.30 mg/L), IL-6 (median: 355.80 pg/L vs. 35.87 pg/L), and group A was the only one that presented a better proportion of patient with the recovery to normal values of the Neutrophil/Lymphocyte Ratio at 25 days, from 100% to 71.42% p=0.0108. Conclusions: One-third of the patients studied suffered AKI, group A patients showed a clear tendency to improve compared to controls, suggesting that the proposed therapy promotes healing and early recovery in severe COVID-19, which might be related to the anti-inflammatory effect of cellular therapy.
Computing gene functional similarity using combined graphs

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

The Gene Ontology has been used extensively for measuring the functional similarity among genes of various organisms. All the existing gene similarity methods use either molecular function or biological process taxonomies in computing gene similarity. In this paper, we apply an algorithm for combining graphs to connect the molecular function (F) and biological process (P) taxonomies into one FP taxonomy graph. We then measure the functional similarity of two genes using the resulting FP graph with path length function. The two aspects of GO, molecular function and biological process, are combined by connecting F nodes with P nodes using gene ontology annotation, GOA, databases. By combining two GO graphs, we can have more comprehensive way to explore the functional relationships between genes. We conducted the evaluation on a dataset of OMIM disease phenotypes to estimate the similarity of disease proteins from various diseases.
Seeing Without Eyes: Visual Sensory Substitution

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

This paper investigates techniques that can be used by people with visual deficit in order to improve their life quality. The techniques covered span from technologies developed more than 3 decades ago, but forgotten by time and extremely powerful, to new computer aided sense substitution systems that manage to transmit as much as possible of the highly data intensive visual sense through the more limited senses, like the auditory or tactile. The usage possibility ranges from very simple to use PC and webcam instruments to hi-tech implants inserted directly on the brain.

Cluster Expansions in Many-Fermion Theory. I. ``Factor-Cluster'' Formalisms

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

Cluster development may furnish a powerful device for the calculation of the expectation values of the observables of a many-fermion system with respect to dynamically correlated state vectors. The generalized normalization integral, a generating function for the required expectation values, is defined, and four of the many possible decompositions of this function into cluster integrals are explored. Two of these decompositions are slight extensions of the conventional ones of Iwamoto and Yamada and Aviles, Hartogh, and Tolhoek. The other two are product decompositions, leading to new ``factor-cluster'' formalisms. A factor-cluster expansion is applied to the evaluation of the n-particle spatial distribution function.
Innovation capability, entrepreneurial orientation and performance within European network of living labs (ENoLL)

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

A survey instrument has been designed to capture basic demographics of the unit of observation - an individual living lab (LL) and to study the relationships between: 1. perceived LL Innovation Capability 2. perceived LL Entrepreneurial Orientation, 3. perceived LL Business Performance. This paper focuses on reducing the number of items across all the dimensions of the survey instrument by using unweighted least squares ULS solution. A total reduction of items from 109 to 65 across the entire survey instrument has been achieved. A link to an online survey has been sent to ~320 Living Lab managers within the European Network of Living Labs (ENoLL). Roughly 10% of responses from the entire population have been obtained through the process. On average, living labs are fairly opened and user centred innovation ecosystems characterised by strong, yet surprisingly risk-averse innovation cultures with rather flat management structures, relatively low internal and external competitive pressures, lack of sufficient resources for further development and relatively low scores related to perceived performance.
Biomechanical modeling and analysis of manual wheelchair propulsion

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Users of manual wheelchairs depend on wheelchairs for most of their daily activities. Manual Wheelchair Propulsion (MWP) is an inefficient and physically straining process, which in the long term can cause injury. However, wheelchair users do benefit greatly from cardiovascular exercise with the use of manual wheelchairs. The first step in improving the low efficiency and/or preventing injuries during MWP is to be able to measure these factors. To do this, we have proposed an Equivalent Biomedical Index (EBI) and two Wheelchair Users' Joint Injury Indices (WUJII and WUJII') for gross mechanical efficiency and injury assessments. We have fabricated and validated an instrumented wheel to measure the user's applied loads on the handrim during MWP as part of the data required for calculating the proposed indices. The wheel system has been verified by using general uncertainty analysis, and its specifications have been determined using both static and dynamic experiments. The results have ensured the reliability of the system. Also, a procedure has been developed to determine the angular position of the contact point between the hand and the handrim by using the applied loads and without the use of cameras. This study also focuses on proposing a novel method to determine the optimum seat position of the wheelchair to minimize the values of the injury indices and/or maximize the value of EBI for each user. Eight male wheelchair user subjects were recruited for the experiments. Statistical analysis showed that horizontal seat position was significantly related to all three indices (p <0.05). The response surfaces of the indices for two users were determined by using the proposed method and a Bivariate Quadratic Function. We developed and elaborated "Method I" for analysis of the dynamics of user joints and to calculate the joint loads as part of the factors required to define the optimum seat position. A 3D rigid-body inverse dynamic method was used to calculate the joint loads. "Method II" for analysis of the kinetics of the upper limbs was developed and validated to simplify the experimental procedure and decrease the required post-processing. Method II showed to be reliable for measuring the joint forces.
Scrub Typhus--A Re-Emerging Infection.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

chills and rigors, headache, vomiting, cough which are all non-specific. Out of all the patients with pyrexia of intermediate duration studied, 10 had hepatosplenomegaly and only 1 scrub typhus positive patient had the sign and 1 out of the total 92 patients had neck stiffness and he was positive for scrub typhus by PCR. None of them had an eschar which is supposed to be characteristic of rickettsial fever. The laboratory abnormalities noted among the positive patients included elevated SGOT/SGPT levels, (7 out of 8 patients) and half the number of positive patients (4 out of 8) showed presence of urine micro albuminuria. These findings are very similar to many of the studies done in the recent past by M Vivekanandan et al1 from Pondicherry, Narvencar KPS et al2 from Goa and the study by MVS Subbalaxmi et al.3 S c r u b t y p h u s a c c o u n t s f o r nearly 20% of all cases of pyrexia o f i n t e r m e d i a t e d u r a t i o n i n endemic areas. Typhus is rarely diagnosed as a cause of pyrexia of intermediate duration and the public health importance of this disease is underestimated due to lack of diagnostic facilities and a low index of suspicion among health care workers due to the non specific nature of the c l inical s igns and symptoms. PCR typhus is a rapid and specific test for quick diagnosis of scrub typhus. Moreover definitive treatment of this group of illnesses is relatively simple involving the use of single drug therapy with universally available drugs like Doxycycline, Chloramphenicol, Roxithromycin, Azithromycin.

Perennial Energy Crops for Semiarid Lands in the Mediterranean: Elytrigia Elongata, A C3 Grass with Summer Dormancy to Produce Electricity in Constraint Environments

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

The aim of this report is to demonstrate and evaluate the potential of tall wheatgrass (Elytrigia elongata) to avoid GHG emissions and obtain lower economic costs in marginal areas of Spain. Our research built scenarios based on experimental plots (2 and 3 years growth) in 3 locations of Spain with completely different climate conditions (provinces of Girona, Soria and Palencia). In our experiences, we achieved an adequate establishment and biomass production, and assumed a rank of biomass yields until the end of the life cycle that is usually accepted to be about 15 years in many other studies in United States, Argentina and Eastern Europe where tall wheatgrass is extensively cultivated in marginal areas for sheep livestock production. Using our experimental plots and statistical information for economic inputs costs, we built 5 different scenarios per region considering a large range of biomass yields of tall wheatgrass. The analysis included a comparison with annual grasses economic costs calculated for a wide range of biomass yields of a previous study. We estimated GHG emissions savings for tall wheatgrasses and used our previous study (which had GHG emissions savings as well). Savings were calculated replacing natural gas electricity with electricity from biomass combustion in real power plants in Spain. In a wide range of yields, the results suggest that marginal areas might present a better performance with tall wheatgrass compared to annual winter grasses (cereals whole plant cuttings), thus producing biomass yields with higher GHG savings and lower economic costs at the farm level.
Estimating the Shelf Life of Brown Pan Bread, Suitability of Survival Analysis Methodology

Field: Decision Sciences (Social Sciences)

ABSTRACT: This paper uses survival analysis methodology to estimate the shelf life of brown pan bread. The key concept of survival analysis is to focus the shelf‐life estimation on consumer rejection rather than on product deterioration. The likelihood function, which corresponds to the joint probability of the consumers' observations, is established for a suitable parametric model. The parameters of the model are estimated via the maximization of the likelihood function. From these, the survival function, as well as other quantities of interest is estimated. Different models were applied to the brown pan bread data and used to predict, and compare, the shelf life of brown pan bread for F(t) = 0.25 and 0.50 (25% and 50% consumer rejection). The variation in consumer's global acceptability of the product throughout its shelf life was studied.
Performance Analysis of Uplink-dominate Frame Structure

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Vertical industries generate different traffic types that impose very diverse and extreme requirements on the network. Currently vendors and operators had been gradually noticed in the need to support more advanced applications with stricter reliability, throughput and latency requirements, such as XR, vision-based factory detection, remote medical service and live video. How to improve the UL data rate to meet the strict requirements for newly applications is an important step for network evolution to meet the commercial needs. 5G frame structures have the ability to provide sufficient flexibility for diverse use cases, deployments, spectrums and device capabilities. Currently, the frame structure in commercial network is DL-dominate. in the view of the fact that several use cases in vertical industries are UL unbalanced, this paper analysis a new uplink dominate frame structure in terms of latency and throughput. The simulation results show the uplink performance can be significantly improved by uplink dominate frame structure.
