Innovative Pedagogical Activity in the Context of Humanitarization of Education in the Information Space: Main Directions and Prospects

The article proves the importance of boosting the level of trust in the interaction between small industrial businesses and banks.The problems in the relations between these economic entities in Russia have been identified and the ways of solving them by moving to a partnership-based model of cooperation of banks with small enterprises have been outlined.The defined model of cooperation is based on the adaptive credit and investment consulting (ACIC) method proposed by the authors.This method assumes mutual trust between the economic agents that appears while ensuring complete transparency of information among the participants of credit transaction.It also assumes their interest in long-term and sustainable relations and adaptation of the services provided by the bank to the certain economic condition of a small firm.It is shown that the implementation of ACIC in the practice of bank's lending to small enterprises will ensure an increase in the level of mutual trust between them and boost their credit and investment activities.The work reviews and classifies methods for quantifying the level of trust between various economic entities; a synthetic index that measures the level of trust between banks and small industrial enterprises is developed; and a methodology for an approximate estimation of the economic effect of the ACIC application is proposed.The results of the study can be adapted for the conditions of other countries with similar problems in the interaction between banks and small firms.

Changes of adjacent segment biomechanics after anterior cervical interbody fusion with different profile design plate: single- versus double-level

Low-profile angle-stable spacer Zero-P is claimed to reduce the morbidity associated with traditional plate and cage construct (PCC). Both Zero-P and PCC could achieve comparable mid- and long-term clinical and radiological outcomes in anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF). It is not clear whether Zero-P can reduce the incidence of adjacent segment degeneration (ASD), especially in multi-segmental fusion. This study aimed to test the effect of fusion level with Zero-P versus with PCC on adjacent-segment biomechanics in ACDF. A three-dimensional finite element (FE) model of an intact C2-T1 segment was built and validated. Six single- or double-level instrumented conditions were modeled from this intact FE model using Zero-P or the standard PCC. The biomechanical responses of adjacent segments at the cephalad and caudal levels of the operation level were assessed in terms of range of motion (ROM), stresses in the endplate and disc, loads in the facets. When comparing the increase of adjacent-segment motion in single-level PCC fusion versus Zero-P fusion, a significantly larger increase was found in double-level fusion condition. The fold changes of PCC versus Zero-P of intradiscal and endplate stress, and facet load at adjacent levels in the double-level fusion spine were significantly larger than that in the single-level fusion spine during the sagittal, the transverse, and the frontal plane motion. The increased value of biomechanical features was greater at above segment than that at below. The fold changes of PCC versus Zero-P at adjacent segment were most notable in flexion and extension movement. Low-profile device could decrease adjacent segment biomechanical burden compared to traditional PCC in ACDF, especially in double-level surgery. Zero-P could be a good alternative for traditional PCC in ACDF. Further clinical/in vivo studies will be necessary to explore the approaches selected for this study is warranted.

Assessment of right heart functions in the patients with arteriovenous fistula for hemodialysis access: Right ventricular free wall strain and tricuspid regurgitation jet velocity as the predictors of right heart failure

Objectives Previous studies have mostly focused on the left-sided cardiovascular changes, but right-sided cardiac changes and predictive factors have not been examined in advance following arteriovenous fistula (AVF) creation. We aimed to identify new parameters which contribute to the prediction of right heart failure (RHF) after AVF creation. Methods The study cohort comprised 81 patients who underwent AVF creation between January 2014 and April 2019 in our center. The study cohort was divided into the patients with RHF ( n = 15, 18.5%) and without RHF ( n = 66, 72.5%) following AVF creation. Results Mean age of cohort was 49.9 ± 14.7 years (range 23–66) and 39 (48.1%) were men. Approximately 74.07% (60 patients) were in New York Heart Association Class II and III profile preoperatively. Independent predictors for RHF following AVF were right ventricle longitudinal strain (RVLS) free wall &lt;-19% [odds ratio (OR) 2.31, 95% CI 1.02–3.22], and tricuspid regurgitation jet velocity (TRJV) &gt;2.5 m/s [odds ratio (OR) 5.68, 95% CI 1.21–4.38]. Receiver operating characteristic analysis was performed with a resulting area under the curve value of 0.86 (95% CI 0.55–0.89, p = 0.004) for RVLS free wall &lt;-14.2% and 0.81 for TRJV &gt;2.61 m/s (95% CI 0.55–0.89, p = 0.005) in predicting RHF following AVF. Conclusions RVLS free wall &lt;-14.2% and TRJV &gt;2.61 m/s were independent predictors of RHF following AVF creation. The patients at risk for having RHF following AVF creation or who may benefit from AVF should be identified with predictive parameters and prospective clinical studies.

Africa-Asia Relations since the End of “Unipolar” Globalization: Focus on Education and Research

Abstract The role of education and research in social progress is vital. Since China was admitted into the World Trade Organization in 2001, its economic, financial and trade assistance with Africa has intensified, reflecting certain aspects of the claims associated with the Bandung Conference in 1955. And Japanese relations with Africa, which were at their peak from the end of 1980s through the beginning of the 1990s, have steadily been declining. Furthermore, as China has become the second largest economy in the World since 2010, it has begun projecting its influential power in Africa. Despite the newfound emergence of Chinese power in Africa, it is Japan that has created the strongest institutional support of its activities in the name of new Japan International Cooperation Agency ( JICA), which redefines Japan relationship with Africa through the TICAD initiative. The competition between these two powers can benefit Africa if she can build her political leverage in her own capacity to identify her priorities with confidence and determination. Using comparative and historical perspectives, this article focuses on the examination of the new trends regarding Chinese and Japanese assistance to Africa with a particular focus on education and research.

SplitQuant: Layer Splitting for Low-Bit Neural Network Quantization

Quantization for deep neural networks (DNNs) is the process of mapping the parameter values of DNNs from original data types to other data types of lower precision to reduce model sizes and make inference faster. Quantization often maps different original values to a single quantized value because the range of the original values is larger than the range of the quantized values. This leads to the degradation of the accuracy of the quantized DNNs. Outliers are a main cause of the degradation of quantization resolution because they enlarge the range of original values. To solve the problem, the percentile method is often used to clip outliers. However, clipping the outliers has another problem of removing the important and strong signals in the DNNs. This paper proposes SplitQuant to keep the outliers and improve the quantization resolution at the same time. SplitQuant narrows down the range of the original values and mitigates the effect of outliers by splitting each quantizable layer into three mathematically equivalent layers and applies different scaling factors. Especially, weights and biases are clustered into lower, middle and upper clusters for optimized split. By preprocessing DNNs with SplitQuant, quantization algorithms can achieve better results. SplitQuant was applied on two BERT-Tiny models and improved the accuracy of INT2 quantization by 3.3%p and 2.1%p, achieving accuracies comparable to those of the original FP32 models.

The crystallisation of alkaline‐earth metal tungstates (molybdates, chromates, and sulphates) from metal chloride melts

Abstract This paper presents studies on the crystallisation of alkaline‐earth metal tungstates, molybdates, chromates and sulphates by slow cooling of solutions in lithium chloride and alkaline‐earth metal chloride melts at 600° to 1100°C. Solubility — temperature diagrams were prepared for this temperature range. The effects of solute — solvent interaction, crystallisation temperature range and rate of cooling on crystal form and size were investigated. Final crystal size increases with reduced rate of cooling and with increasing crystallisation temperature; barium sulphate crystallisation from lithium chloride melt is anomalous.

Data mining based framework to assess solution quality for the rectangular 2D strip-packing problem

In this paper, we explore the use of reference values (predictors) for the optimal objective function value of hard combinatorial optimization problems, instead of bounds, obtained by data mining techniques, and that may be used to assess the quality of heuristic solutions for the problem. With this purpose, we resort to the rectangular two-dimensional strip-packing problem (2D-SPP), which can be found in many industrial contexts. Mostly this problem is solved by heuristic methods, which provide good solutions. However, heuristic approaches do not guarantee optimality, and lower bounds are generally used to give information on the solution quality, in particular, the area lower bound. But this bound has a severe accuracy problem. Therefore, we propose a data mining-based framework capable of assessing the quality of heuristic solutions for the 2D-SPP. A regression model was fitted by comparing the strip height solutions obtained with the bottom-left-fill heuristic and 19 predictors provided by problem characteristics. Random forest was selected as the data mining technique with the best level of generalisation for the problem, and 30,000 problem instances were generated to represent different 2D-SPP variations found in real-world applications. Height predictions for new problem instances can be found in the regression model fitted. In the computational experimentation, we demonstrate that the data mining-based framework proposed is consistent, opening the doors for its application to finding predictions for other combinatorial optimisation problems, in particular, other cutting and packing problems. However, how to use a reference value instead of a bound, has still a large room for discussion and innovative ideas. Some directions for the use of reference values as a stopping criterion in search algorithms are also provided. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd

Familial Adenomatous Polyposis Manifesting as<i>Lactococcus</i>Endocarditis: A Case Report and Review of the Association of<i>Lactococcus</i>with Underlying Gastrointestinal Disease

A 45-year-old male with a prosthetic aortic valve presented to the hospital with several months of generalized malaise. On admission, he was noted to have anemia of unclear etiology and subsequently became febrile with multiple blood cultures growing Lactococcus garvieae . Inpatient workup was concerning for infectious endocarditis (IE) secondary to Lactococcus . The patient was discharged home with appropriate antimicrobial therapy; however, he was readmitted for persistent, symptomatic anemia and underwent colonoscopy, which revealed innumerable colonic polyps consistent with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) that was later confirmed with genetic testing. Surveillance computed tomography (CT) imaging of the aortic repair later demonstrated valve dehiscence with surrounding fluid collection; he underwent redo surgery and was found to have destruction of the aortic annulus and a large pseudoaneurysm. Histopathology of the valve prosthesis confirmed IE. It is suspected that the patient developed Lactococcus IE from enteric translocation. Review of the literature provides several reports of Lactococcus infections in association with underlying gastrointestinal disease, including colorectal cancer. Given this association, we raise the question of whether the diagnosis of Lactococcus IE should evoke suspicion and encourage evaluation for gastrointestinal pathology, as occurs with Streptococcus bovis .

Comprehensive Internal Standards for Hydrogen–Deuterium Exchange Mass Spectrometry

Hydrogen-Deuterium Exchange Mass Spectrometry (HDX-MS) is a widespread tool for studying protein structure and dynamics, but data comparability across different experimental conditions, instrument platforms, and laboratories remains challenging. Here, we design, synthesize, and validate a novel set of imidazolium-based internal exchange reporters (IERs) that readily integrate with HDX-MS to provide a direct measure of exchange conditions. The set of eight IERs are designed to have a single discrete exchangeable site to sample conditions over exceptionally broad time scales, from milliseconds to days, while also exhibiting desirable chromatographic behavior. We demonstrated the utility of these IERs and the associated computational tools through a series of comparative HDX-MS studies involving well-studied proteins where reaction conditions like pH and deuterium content were offset. Through unambiguous referencing of exchange reaction conditions, this novel set of internal standards enables rigorous cross-experiment comparisons and will improve HDX-MS-derived models of protein dynamics.
