Black money, “white” owners, and “blue” tenants in the Bangladesh housing market

Purpose The main purpose of this paper is to critically examine the impact of black money whitening opportunity on the Bangladesh housing market and its ramifications for honest taxpayers and criminal conduct of the people in the country. Design/methodology/approach This paper relies on both primary and secondary materials and carries out an archival analysis of the resources available in libraries and online databases. Findings It demonstrates that black money whitening opportunity has failed to create additional demands for housing property, rather it encourages money laundering, corruption and other criminal activities. Hence, a set of specific recommendations have been submitted to effectively deal with the prevention of generation of black money instead of allowing them to be invested in properties with impunity. Research limitations/implications The discussions are concentrated on the legality of offering amnesty to black money holders and the impact of such indemnities on the housing market in Bangladesh; hence, it does not consider impacts on other economic sectors. It is expected that the publication of this paper will stimulate the government of Bangladesh to discontinue the disputed amnesty in Bangladesh, and other nations having similar problems with black money will be encouraged to follow suit. Practical implications It is anticipated that the implementation of the recommendations furnished in this paper will contribute to significantly decreasing money laundering, corruption and other offences involving money in Bangladesh and in other countries. Social implications Prevention of corruption and other financial crimes. Originality/value This paper represents its originality in its critical analysis of frequent offerings of the opportunity for whitening black money and their unfair impacts on honest taxpayers and resultant stimulation for engaging in money laundering, corruption and other felonies. It evidently justifies the assumption that such amnesties to wrongdoers are contrary to the national constitution, anti-corruption and anti-money laundering legislation and they wound the sense of ethical behaviour of human beings. Moreover, it proves the hypothesis that such opportunities being offered to black money holders have no positive contribution towards creating additional demands in the country’s property markets.

Influence of periodic traffic congestion on epidemic spreading

In the metropolis, traffic congestion has become a very serious problem, especially in rush hours. This congestion causes people to have more chance to contact each other and thus will accelerate epidemic spreading. To explain this observation, we present a reaction–diffusion (RD) model with a periodic varying diffusion rate to represent the daily traveling behaviors of human beings and its influence to epidemic spreading. By extensive numerical simulations, we find that the epidemic spreading can be significantly influenced by traffic congestion where the amplitude, period and duration of diffusion rate are the three key parameters. Furthermore, a brief theory is presented to explain the effects of the three key parameters. These findings suggest that except the normal ways of controlling contagion in working places and long-distance traveling, controlling the contagion in daily traffic congestion may be another effective way to reduce epidemic spreading.

The Conflict Paradigm in Sociology and the Study of Social Inequality: Paradox and Possibility

INTRODUCTIONConflict theory is one of the major paradigms used by sociologists to make sense of the social world. All sociology that takes as its object of study the processes by which social groups compete with each other for scarce resources such as power, wealth, and status, or the inequalities that result from these competitions, falls within the conflict paradigm (Collins 1990).Conflict sociology constitutes a substantial portion of all contemporary sociological research. An examination of the six 2013 issues of American Sociological Review, the American Sociological Association's flagship journal, reveals that approximately 75% of the articles published in this journal fall within the conflict paradigm (31 out of 42, by my count), and many other sociology journals continue to document the dynamics and consequences of social inequality. Marx's writings on the relations of production in capitalism, and his thesis that historical change is a product of the conflict between economic classes gave conflict theory its initial form. However, sociologists have since extended the basic structure of Marx's theory to many other groups in competition in addition to those defined by the relations of production. For example, Weber's classic treatment of status stratification and structures of domination extended Marx's basic model of group competition over resources to include dimensions of social esteem and power. Contemporary conflict sociology continues this tradition by studying the dynamics of a variety of group inequalities such as race, gender, sexual orientation categories, as well as inter-organizational competition (Collins 1975).There is much at stake in social inequalities. Conflict theory impels us to recognize that every dimension of social structure can be conceptualized in terms of winners and losers, and social conflict often causes disastrous and tragic consequences for the losers in the social struggle. People are tortured, mutilated, and incinerated as a consequence of social conflict; they are also shunned, humiliated, exploited, and otherwise systematically shortchanged by the social structures they take part in. Social conflict induces the worst behavior of human beings toward each other. This harm is a necessary consequence of the maintenance of stratified social structure, as social interest groups seek to protect and extend their own privileges while minimizing those of their competitors, and the potential for great harm is exacerbated in industrial societies with access to weapons of mass destruction.This is the essential insight of conflict sociology: social conflict and inequality are fundamental to social structure. Yet at the same time, efforts to combat social inequalities by conflict sociologists and policy makers have largely been limited to ex post facto attempts at writing equality into social structure; the liberal welfare state is the archetypal example. This produces a paradox, in which social conflict and inequality are understood to be a necessary consequence of social structure, and yet efforts are made to write equality into social structure, both in the form of actual resource transfers, and in the kinds of policy recommendations offered by conflict sociologists. The irony of this position is brought into high relief when attempts to alter social structure to reduce inequalities are met with stiff resistance by those who benefit from those inequalities: Attempts at ex post facto resource distribution - managing social conflicts and their resultant inequalities after the inequality has already manifested - ultimately reproduce the conditions that create the inequality in the first place by reproducing the conflict of interest between those who benefit from social structure and those who are disproportionately shortchanged by it. Ex post facto resource redistribution can potentially mitigate some of the inequalities that arise from social conflict, but it fails to address fundamental questions concerning how and why inequalities are built into social structure. …

Ecological value orientations and readiness for activism in Serbia

The global environmental crisis, caused by the unreasonable behavior of human beings and their economic activities that affect nature and its resources, has created a basis for the development of new environmental paradigm, which emphasizes the intrinsic value of nature, the close connection between society and the environment and the importance of their mutual influence. Changing the view of the world becomes a necessary step in establishing the optimum of the inter­play between humans and the natural environment. Environmental knowledge is the most primary element of environmental awareness. The indispensable outcome of environmental awareness is ecological behavior that should be developed and encouraged. The formation of desirable behavior affect environmental objective and subjective factors. Objective factors are, for example, environmental conditions (degree of degradation of eco-system), socio-ecological infrastructure, the level of technological development. The subjective factors important for ecological behav­ior includes attitudes, expectations, political affiliation, personal and social values. For psychology, of particular importance are the values that support the behavior oriented towards environmental protection. This research examined the ecological value orientation and willingness to ecological involvement of students from the three groups of faculties: for mining and geology, for geography (environmental department), and faculties of social orientation (economic, law, philosophy . . . ). The results showed that the respondents have a well-developed environmental values that are a prerequisite for pro-environmental behavior and activities that leads to protection of the environment. Thus, the students were pretty much willing to engage in activities such as recycling various materials, use of public transportation and take other measures that contribute to a sustainable lifestyle.

Currently it is proven the need to stimulate actions that modify the behavior of human beings in relation to nature. Schools and nonformal education spaces contribute to citizens to develop values, attitudes and responsibilities facing the environment in which they live. non-formal educational environments provide teaching resources, teaching and different methodologies that complement the actions of formal education. Expanding its environmental education activities, the Museum of Natural Sciences of the University of Caxias do Sul, since 2013, has been developing the project The Natural Science Museum Goes to School, in order to awaken the scientific spirit, spreading knowledge aimed at preservation of natural resources, contributing to the enrichment of science education, stimulating the development of educational activities with the support of partner schools in the region. Initially, students and teachers visit the Museum of Natural Sciences and then are developed workshops, lectures and recreational activities in schools, integrating these education spaces. Teachers also develop activities with students, integrating knowledge to partner with those seen in the classroom. Finally, this knowledge is presented through a show of open jobs to the community. During the years 2013 and 2014 the project reached about 1,100 students and by integrating museum and school was provided to these differentiated learning, where knowledge of the interrelationships between natural resources and the living beings was built in an interdisciplinary way, highlighting the museums as important teaching and learning in science sites.

التّخلّق باخلاق الله عند عبد الكريم القشيري

To behave as God’s attitude and moral (akhlak) is part of the purpose of the creation of man as a Caliph of God on this earth. Humans who are part of the image of Majesty/tajalli of Allah have the potential ilahiyah that is capable of being a medium for glorifying the Earth. Therefore, humans have an obligation themselves to always try to be the ideal image on the side of God. Through the study of analytic description of the at-Tahbir fi at-Tazkir al-Qusyairy works, the author tried to explain al-Qusyairy's view of man as the ideal image of (al-Insan al-Kamil) through the efforts of continually behave as Allah’s behaiour. Al-Qusyairy States that one of the methods to make the humanbeing as a perfect creation is by always working to the imitation of meaning contained in the asthma ' and the nature of God, the sacred, the Asma'ul Husna. However, not all the names and the nature of God can be applied in the attitude and behaviour of human beings. Because, there is a portion of the name and nature of God, who contains oneness, greatness, glory of the substance of God, as the word of God, al-Ahad al-Mutakkabir, etc. While the name and the nature of God that shows the true nature of his actions can be imitated by man, such as al-' Alim al-Latif al-Wahhab al-Khaliq, etc.

Seeker optimisation (human group optimisation) algorithm with chaos

Seeker optimisation algorithm (SOA), also referred to as human group metaheuristic optimisation algorithms form a very hot area of research, is an emerging population-based and gradient-free optimisation tool. It is inspired by searching behaviour of human beings in finding an optimal solution. The principal shortcoming of SOA is that it is easily trapped in local optima and consequently fails to achieve near-global solutions in complex optimisation problems. In an attempt to relieve this problem, in this article, chaos-based strategies are embedded into SOA. Five various chaotic-based SOA strategies with four different chaotic map functions are examined and the best strategy is chosen as the suitable chaotic scheme for SOA. The results of applying the proposed chaotic SOA to miscellaneous benchmark functions confirm that it provides accurate solutions. It surpasses basic SOA, genetic algorithm, gravitational search algorithm variant, cuckoo search optimisation algorithm, firefly swarm optimisation and harmony search the proposed chaos-based SOA is expected successfully solve complex engineering optimisation problems.

Adaptive and on-line learning in non-stationary environments

It is important that the update of model parameters and structure be achieved without a “catastrophic forgetting”. Therefore, a balance between continuous learning and “forgetting” is necessary to deal with non-stationary environments. A considerable body of research has been previously devoted to the design of models (e.g. classifiers, cluster models, time-series models) whose operating environments are supposed to be static—there, the system behavior and operating conditions/modes in static environments does not change over time. However, this is a quite strong restriction as usually the characteristics of systems and environmental conditions change, evolve over time. A typical example of changing environments is the spam detection and filtering. The descriptions of the two classes “spam” and “nonspam” evolve over time due to the changes of user preferences and “spammers” techniques to trick spam classifiers. Another example is the behavior of human beings, which may be affected by different experiences, moods, daily conditions etc.—mimicking their cognitive capabilities in form of neural models thus require a permanent adaptation and regulation of the induced networks. In case of condition monitoring systems employing multi-sensor networks, new sensors may be added whose measured variables or classes should be ideally integrated on-the-fly into a large networks of identified models describing the relations and dependencies being present within the system. In many applications, the models rely on off-line training cycles from historic data samples, which are often costly to obtain or need to be pre-annotated to establish an initial model (e.g. in case of classifiers), especially when intending to guarantee a sufficient coverage of the feature space—issues which are cost-intensive for companies and thus decreasing the applicability and attraction of data-driven models in industrial and healthcare systems. Training the models on The computerization of many life activities and the advances in data collection and storage technology lead to obtain mountains of data. They are collected to capture information about a phenomena or a process behavior. These data are rarely of direct benefit. Thus, a set of techniques and tools are used to extract useful information for decision support, prediction, exploration and understanding of phenomena governing the data sources. Learning methods use historic data points about a process past behavior to build a predictor (classifier, regression model, time-series model). The latter is used as an old experience to predict the process future behavior. However, the predictor needs to adjust itself (self-correction or adaptation) as new events happen or new conditions/system states occur (e.g. during on-line operations). The goal is to ensure an accurate prediction of process behavior according to the changes in new incoming data characteristics. This requires a continuous learning over long period of time with the ability to evolve new structural components on demand and to forget data becoming obsolete and useless. Incremental and sequential learning are essential concepts in order to avoid time-intensive re-training phases and account for the systems dynamics/changing data characteristics with low computational effort and virtual memory usage (enhancing on-line performance). This is because data is processed in sample-wise and single-pass manner.

Measurement of human rotation behavior for psychological and neuropsychological investigations.

The investigation of rotation behavior in human beings enjoys a longstanding and enduring interest in laterality research. While in animal studies the issue of accurately measuring the number of rotations has been solved and is widely applied in practice, it is still challenging to assess the rotation behavior of humans in daily life. We propose a robust method to assess human rotation behavior based on recordings from a miniature inertial measurement unit that can be worn unobtrusively on a belt. We investigate the effect of different combinations of low-cost sensors-including accelerometers, gyroscopes, and magnetometers-on rotation measurement accuracy, propose a simple calibration procedure, and validate the method on data from a predefined path through and around buildings. Results suggest that a rotation estimation based on the fusion of accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer measurements outperforms methods based solely on earth magnetic field measurements, as proposed in previous studies, by a drop in error rate of up to 32 %. We further show that magnetometer signals do not significantly contribute to measurement accuracy in short-term measurements, and could thus be omitted for improved robustness in environments with magnetic field disturbances. Results also suggest that our simple calibration procedure can compete with more complex approaches and reduce the error rate of the proposed algorithm by up to 38 %.

Group counseling optimization

In this paper, a new population-based optimization algorithm – which we call a group counseling optimizer (GCO) – is developed. Instead of mimicking the behavior of living organisms such as birds, fish, ants, and bees, we emulate the behavior of human beings in life problem solving through counseling within a group. This is motivated by the fact that the human's thinking is often predicted to be the most reasonable and influential. The inspiration radiates from the various striking points of analogy between group counseling and population-based optimization which we have discovered, as elucidated in Section 2. The algorithm is tested using seven unrotated benchmark functions and five rotated ones. Further, a comparison is made with the comprehensive learning particle swarm optimizer (CLPSO) which outperforms many other variants of the particle swarm optimizer. Using new eight composition benchmark functions, another comparison is made with the BI-population covariance matrix adaptation evolution strategy with alternative restart strategy (NBIPOP-aCMA-ES) which is the winner of the competition on real-parameter single objective optimization at IEEE CEC-2013. The results are all highly promising, demonstrating the soundness and efficacy of the proposed approach. GCO is applied to real-world application which is spacecraft trajectory design problem. Also, the results show that GCO outperforms well-known optimizers.

GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF EMPIRICAL LEGAL RESEARCH

It is doctrinal research which was followed in earlier times and empirical research is of recent origin. Understanding the behaviour of human beings is the first focus of empirical research and it is done by collecting first hand data. In order to understand the human conduct, empirical research uses tools such as observation, interview, questionnaire, survey, schedule, case study etc. Empirical research is not applicable to evaluate morals and values because it is not possible to test by empirical methods what is good and what is bad.

The Adoption of Instructional Techniques and Educational Technologies among Teaching

The development of technology in daily life continues to show its effects on the behavior of human beings. Their integration in the field of education is an asset to the effectiveness of learning for both the teacher and the learner. However, some people tend to confuse instructional technics with educational technologies, while these concepts are different and have their roles in the process of learning. This paper first defines the three concepts in education namely instructional technics, educational technologies and learning theories, and highlights their characteristics. It also introduces the influence of educational technologies in instructional techniques, their advantages and inconvenience and ends with suggestions to improve them to be more suitable and profitable.

A novel social emotional optimisation algorithm for IIR system identification problem

In this paper an evolutionary optimisation methodology based on social emotional optimisation algorithm (SEOA) is applied to the infinite impulse response (IIR) system identification problem. In SEOA methodology, behaviour of human beings for achieving higher social status in society is structured. In this virtual world, the individual with the highest rank in society gives the optimal solution in multidimensional search space. Earning the highest social status by means of cooperation and competition with others not only results in better exploration and exploitation of problem space but also ensures faster convergence to optimal solution. The proposed SEOA based system identification approach has resolved the inherent drawbacks of premature convergence and stagnation, unlike genetic algorithm (GA), particle swarm optimisation (PSO) and differential evolution (DE). The simulation results obtained for some well known benchmark examples justify the efficacy of the proposed system identification approach using SEOA over GA, PSO and DE in terms of convergence speed, unknown plant coefficients and mean square error (MSE) values produced for both the same order and reduced order models of adaptive IIR filters.

Genome-Wide Association Study Reveals Genetic Architecture of Eating Behavior in Pigs and Its Implications for Humans Obesity by Comparative Mapping

This study was aimed at identifying genomic regions controlling feeding behavior in Danish Duroc boars and its potential implications for eating behavior in humans. Data regarding individual daily feed intake (DFI), total daily time spent in feeder (TPD), number of daily visits to feeder (NVD), average duration of each visit (TPV), mean feed intake per visit (FPV) and mean feed intake rate (FR) were available for 1130 boars. All boars were genotyped using the Illumina Porcine SNP60 BeadChip. The association analyses were performed using the GenABEL package in the R program. Sixteen SNPs were found to have moderate genome-wide significance (p<5E-05) and 76 SNPs had suggestive (p<5E-04) association with feeding behavior traits. MSI2 gene on chromosome (SSC) 14 was very strongly associated with NVD. Thirty-six SNPs were located in genome regions where QTLs have previously been reported for behavior and/or feed intake traits in pigs. The regions: 64–65 Mb on SSC 1, 124–130 Mb on SSC 8, 63–68 Mb on SSC 11, 32–39 Mb and 59–60 Mb on SSC 12 harbored several signifcant SNPs. Synapse genes (GABRR2, PPP1R9B, SYT1, GABRR1, CADPS2, DLGAP2 and GOPC), dephosphorylation genes (PPM1E, DAPP1, PTPN18, PTPRZ1, PTPN4, MTMR4 and RNGTT) and positive regulation of peptide secretion genes (GHRH, NNAT and TCF7L2) were highly significantly associated with feeding behavior traits. This is the first GWAS to identify genetic variants and biological mechanisms for eating behavior in pigs and these results are important for genetic improvement of pig feed efficiency. We have also conducted pig-human comparative gene mapping to reveal key genomic regions and/or genes on the human genome that may influence eating behavior in human beings and consequently affect the development of obesity and metabolic syndrome. This is the first translational genomics study of its kind to report potential candidate genes for eating behavior in humans.

Differences Help Recognition: A Probabilistic Interpretation

This paper presents a computational model to address one prominent psychological behavior of human beings to recognize images. The basic pursuit of our method can be concluded as that differences among multiple images help visual recognition. Generally speaking, we propose a statistical framework to distinguish what kind of image features capture sufficient category information and what kind of image features are common ones shared in multiple classes. Mathematically, the whole formulation is subject to a generative probabilistic model. Meanwhile, a discriminative functionality is incorporated into the model to interpret the differences among all kinds of images. The whole Bayesian formulation is solved in an Expectation-Maximization paradigm. After finding those discriminative patterns among different images, we design an image categorization algorithm to interpret how these differences help visual recognition within the bag-of-feature framework. The proposed method is verified on a variety of image categorization tasks including outdoor scene images, indoor scene images as well as the airborne SAR images from different perspectives.

Cycle the Logico

In this short article, we answer Lewis Carroll’s well-known no-answer Riddle ‘Why is a Raven like a Writing Desk’ analytically. Our development shows that the intuitive thinking behavior of human beings can be analyzed using an analytic framework that involves the function concept proposed by Gottlob Frege and the naming theory. As a result, we suggest that the study of Psychology and Cognitive Science bears intrinsic relationship with Philosophy of Language and Logic.

Tobacco is the greatest disease-producing product, with its prevalent addictive habit influencing the behavior of human beings for more than four centuries. Tobacco is consumed orally in a variety of forms such as smoking and chewable forms. Smoking is increasing rapidly throughout the developing world and is one of the biggest threats to current and future world health. By 2030, if current trends continue, smoking will kill more than nine million people annually. On an average, to date 47.5% of men and 10.3% of women are smokers. In India, tobacco products are commercially available with added scents and flavouring agents which not only attracts rural population but also influences urban population. Tobacco smoking is linked with many serious illnesses, such as cardiopulmonary diseases, cancer, low birth weight, as well as with many other health problems, contributing to thousands of premature deaths each year When exposed to tobacco salivary behaviour is reversed and saliva loses its antioxidant capacity, becoming a potent pro-oxidant milieu Most oral consequences of tobacco use impair quality of life be they as simple as halitosis or as complex as oral birth defects, as common as periodontal disease or as troublesome as complications during wound healing. Tobacco smoking and chewing not only causes discolouration of teeth, periodontitis, dental caries, altered taste, nicotinic stomatitis, but also causes leukoplakia & carcinoma with high morbidity and mortality. It is especially important to understand that harmful effects of tobacco products are dose-dependent, that they depend more on abuse than on simple use. The aim of this review is to highlight the effect of smoking and chewing forms of tobacco on oral health. and remedies which can be thought of.
