ПРОСТОРОВІ ТА МОРФОЛОГІЧНІ ТРАНСФОРМАЦІЇ ЖИТЛОВОГО МАСИВУ ВИНОГРАДАР У КИЄВІ

This article examines the main spatial and morphological transformations of the Vynogradar housing estate in Kyiv, related to the adaptation of the Soviet urban housing formation to new market conditions after the collapse of the Soviet Union. In Ukraine, due to the rapid destruction caused by the Russian-Ukrainian war has become more acute. An important step for strategic decision-making is to inventory the existing post-Soviet urban heritage and identify those features and acquired characteristics that are valuable in terms of architectural and cultural heritage, planning solutions, comfort and health of the urban environment, ability to flexible transformation and the degree of adaptability to new conditions. This study aims to find the key spatial and morphological transformations of the Vynohradar residential area at the stages of creating a project idea, its implementation and further development. The research is based on the study of archival materials and professional periodicals of the time, descriptions of concepts and design solutions for the restoration of the ideas that were the basis of the project; conducting field research and analysis of the modern urban environment; finding and analyzing qualitative changes and their consequences. The next three stages were found: creation of the project idea, project implementation, and transformation of the object. It was found that, despite the idealistic concept and romanticization of this space by the author, the residential area was able to adapt and continue its development in the new conditions, as evidenced by the development of housing – both individual point houses and entire complexes, as well as an extensive network of trade and services. The functional filling of the residential area with a large number of buildings for public institutions was positively implemented in the times of adaptation and transformation – this gave impetus to the development of the service market in the area. It was determined that the main spatial transformations were related to the housing market and mass trade. Children's spaces lost their dominant influence in the residential area.

Misalignment of Actor’s Resources Leading to Value Co-destruction: A Systematic Literature Review for Future Research Frontier

The research frontier of Service-Dominant logic has elicited the etymological debate on the phenomenological nature of value. To date, the literature has shown a biased and myopic view of value co-creation as an outcome of service interaction. Leading journals have given prominent space to value co-creation. Still, value co-destruction is yet least explored though it is also a realistic view of a service interaction. Value co-creation manifests the wellness of actors, but not all service interactions result in positive outcomes causing value co-destruction. The researchers have started the debate on value co-destruction relating to its conceptual description; still, the literature is fragmented. This article is a systematic literature review that explores the epistemological, theoretical, and contextual understanding of value co-destruction to synthesize fragmented literature from 2010 to date. This article provides an overview of value co-destruction seminal work, theoretical underpinnings, leading antecedents, and coping strategies in particular contexts. The systematic selection of literature affirms value co-destruction as a decline in the wellbeing of actors during service exchange due to the misalignment of actors’ resources and a mirror image of value co-creation. This article offers co-existence, the role of context, contextual antecedents, the temporal nature of co-destruction, and exclusively the ISPAR model as theoretical support for value co-destruction as future research directions.

Financial inclusion: philosophical and methodological underpinnings

Purpose Financial inclusion is broadly described as the ability of individuals and businesses to access useful and affordable financial products and services that meet their needs – transactions, payments, savings, credit and insurance – delivered in a responsible and sustainable way. It is considered a key driver of economic growth and financial well-being. Given the significance and relevance of this topic, the purpose of this note is to critically evaluate the ontological and epistemological stance of existing research on financial inclusion. Furthermore, this note examines the influence on the research design. Design/methodology/approach Beginning with a brief description of the key concepts, this note presents a conceptual framework and substantiates the recommended philosophical paradigm through a detailed appraisal of its appropriateness, relative strengths and limitations. Findings Drawing from a range of philosophical worldviews, which can at times seem indistinguishable especially in finance and economics, this note proposes that objectivism with a realist approach is foundational to academic research on financial inclusion. Furthermore, this note makes recommendations with regards to research design. Originality/value This note not only presents a comprehensive assessment of the problematics and the underlying metatheoretical assumptions proposed by Cunliffe (2011) but is also, to the best of author’s knowledge, the first to highlight its relevance to the formal financial system in general and to financial inclusion in particular.

Rendering Ukrainian Historical Terminology of the Old Rus’ Period into English

The article presents a study that focuses on approaches to rendering Ukrainian historical terminology related to the Old Rus' period into English selected en masse from Ukrainian and English academic texts on history, with a special focus on culture-specific terminology. Historical terms for translation purposes are categorised into non-culture-specific historical terminology reflecting universal concepts of historical science, and culture-specific historical terminology. The purpose of the article is to determine specific methods for Ukrainian-English translation of historical terminology of the Old Rus' period. The paper discusses approaches and methods used by English-speaking academics to secondary term formation, taking place when rendering concepts denoting Ukrainian original culture-specific terminology into English. Different groups of historical terms are described with a special focus on onomastic terminology. It is demonstrated that the historical context should be taken into account for the correct designation of a historical concept. Non-culture-specific historical terminology is predominantly rendered by existing equivalents, which were formed through phonological adaptation and/or calque translation. The most appropriate technique for rendering culture-specific Ukrainian historical terminology is shown to be combined renomination, the method that uses both a transcription and a description of a historical concept.

A characterization of generalized existential completions

This paper aims to provide an intrinsic characterization of the notion of generalized existential completion of a conjunctive doctrine P for a class Λ of morphisms of the base category of P. The cornerstone of this result consists of an algebraic description of the logical concept of existential free formulas closely connected to the validity of some choice principles.The link between our characterization and choice principles is emphasized by the fact that an existential doctrine P is the generalized existential completion of itself for all the projections of its base if and only if P is equipped with Hilbert's epsilon operators.Our characterization provides a useful tool to recognize a wide variety of examples of doctrines arising as generalized existential completions. These include the subobjects doctrine and the weak subobjects doctrine of a category with finite limits as well all realizability triposes and among localic triposes only the supercoherent ones.

Text-based automatic personality prediction using KGrAt-Net: a knowledge graph attention network classifier

Nowadays, a tremendous amount of human communications occur on Internet-based communication infrastructures, like social networks, email, forums, organizational communication platforms, etc. Indeed, the automatic prediction or assessment of individuals’ personalities through their written or exchanged text would be advantageous to ameliorate their relationships. To this end, this paper aims to propose KGrAt-Net, which is a Knowledge Graph Attention Network text classifier. For the first time, it applies the knowledge graph attention network to perform Automatic Personality Prediction (APP), according to the Big Five personality traits. After performing some preprocessing activities, it first tries to acquire a knowing-full representation of the knowledge behind the concepts in the input text by building its equivalent knowledge graph. A knowledge graph collects interlinked descriptions of concepts, entities, and relationships in a machine-readable form. Practically, it provides a machine-readable cognitive understanding of concepts and semantic relationships among them. Then, applying the attention mechanism, it attempts to pay attention to the most relevant parts of the graph to predict the personality traits of the input text. We used 2467 essays from the Essays Dataset. The results demonstrated that KGrAt-Net considerably improved personality prediction accuracies (up to 70.26% on average). Furthermore, KGrAt-Net also uses knowledge graph embedding to enrich the classification, which makes it even more accurate (on average, 72.41%) in APP.

SPATIAL PLANNING BASED ON LOCAL WISDOM IN THE SAMBORI INDIGENOUS COMMUNITY THROUGH MANAGEMENT OF ETNO TOURISM POTENTIAL

The development of the population, which is accompanied by an increase in human needs invarious aspects, causes various spatial problems. Spatial problems include settlements andunhealthy community environments such as slums, prone to floods, droughts, fires, pollution anddamage to the environment, joblessness, and the spread of various diseases. Therefore, it isnecessary to have a spatial arrangement that is in accordance with the needs and capacity of thespace, so that a beautiful, cool and harmonious life can be achieved. Basically, the concept ofspatial planning, ideally, has long been known by elements of Indonesian society, even beforethe explosion of population growth that occurs today. The existence of sacred spaces, areas, andland that are not allowed to build houses, residential areas in groups, areas for graves, areas forroads, areas for places of worship, agricultural areas, are forms of local spatial planning knownto the general public. Local wisdom is one of the community's capital to combine aspects ofnature conservation with aspects of economic fulfillment which is conceptualized as Ethnotourism. One of the potentials that many regions have in Indonesia is the natural potential whichbecause of its beauty and uniqueness can be developed for Ethno tourism. A very closecorrelation between local wisdom and ecotourism is that the local wisdom of a particularcommunity is usually related to the way it relates to the environment and the naturalsurroundings. The interaction of this wisdom is a very good attraction to be packaged into aunique ecotourism concept. Based on the conceptual description of the analysis and the empiricalconditions. It seems that the implementation of local spatial planning is one of the mostfundamental alternatives to be presented in a scientific format so that we can understand moredeeply the spatial concept built by our ancestors. Moreover, in the era of globalization whichpresents a very strong influence on all dimensions of life, including spatial planning, thusrequiring us to have a strong foundation in managing space as a place to live and develop. This iswhere local values in managing spatial planning are needed to strengthen the identity andindependence of the Indonesian nation. One of the villages in the Bima Regency that is able tomaintain the traditions and local values of the Indonesian people's spatial planning is theSambori Traditional Village community. The Sambori community has used a spatial plan that isvery in line with the values and spatial patterns in ecotourism management that is rational and inaccordance with its ideal designation.

Thick description and systems thinking: Reiterating the importance of a biopsychosocial approach to mental health.

The article aims at reiterating the importance of a biopsychosocial approach to mental health, taking stock of the critiques that have been raised and moving forward throughout a reconsideration of the theoretical background of systems thinking and emphasizing the relevance of the concept of thick description for the promotion of an adequate reflection on methodology and case formulation. It is our opinion that the biopsychosocial approach is still a powerful framework for making sense of the growing data collected in the different fields related to mental health and for designing proper treatment plans. A crucial challenge for mental health is that of surpassing the dichotomies and ideological disputes that still contaminate the field with detrimental effects on the advancement of knowledge and on the integration and continuity of different kind of interventions. The time is ripe for building bridges among neuroscience, humanitiesand social sciences, and this can only happen within the umbrella of a biopsychosocial perspective reinstated into its systems thinking background.

Narrating the Past in Different Contexts: C-BI Approach to the Present Perfect and Past Simple

Abstract Concept-based instruction (C-BI) has proven to be effective in improving students’ command of grammar items used out of context by offering the students revision lessons, but its effect in teaching newly-introduced grammar items in a complex context of a specific genre remains unclear. To probe C-BI’s effect on students’ use of the past simple and present perfect tenses out of context and in the context of a narrative by its description of the grammar concept in its materialization, that is, the Schemas of a Complete Orienting Basis of an Action (SCOBAs), we taught the two tenses to 40 eighth-graders in a Chinese middle school in our three-week teaching experiment. The qualitative and quantitative analysis of the results shows that i) in both out-of-context use and in-context use, accuracy of using the target tenses is higher after C-BI intervention; ii) by improving their conceptual knowledge through C-BI, the students are helped to pin down reference time and are hence more certain in using the target tenses. Moreover, they are encouraged to use the newly-introduced tenses in the complex context of the narrative genre; iii) both in simple contexts or complex contexts, the SCOBAs are effective in helping students navigate the learning task and determine their intended meaning by establishing temporal reference in the context.

A simple algorithm for optimal design in distributed fibre-optic sensing

SUMMARY We present a basic algorithm for optimal experimental design in distributed fibre-optic sensing. It is based on the fast random generation of fibre-optic cable layouts that can be tested for their cost-benefit ratio. The algorithm accounts for the maximum available cable length, lets the cable pass through pre-defined points of interest, avoids obstacles that the cable must not traverse, permits the adaptation of geometric complexity of different cable segments and allows for the incorporation of topography. Furthermore, the algorithm can be combined with arbitrary measures of the cost-benefit ratio, and its simplicity enables easy adaptations to the needs of specific applications. In addition to a description of the basic concept, we provide examples that illustrate the circumnavigation of obstacles, the steering of geometric complexity and the cable layout optimization in the presence of topographic variations.

Description of a new concept for the development of adapted hot-work tool steels for laser-powder bed fusion

This work presents a new approach for developing carbon-martensitic hardenable hot work tool steel, which can be processed to defect-free components by laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF). The alloy approach is based on low transition temperature steels (LTT), which are characterized by a low martensite start temperature at which the austenite transforms into martensite. With this transformation, a volume expansion occurs, which causes a reduction in the tensile residual stresses previously formed in the austenite phase during cooling. At the same time, low martensite start temperature counteracts the further formation of high residual stresses as the material continues to cool down to room temperature. A modified Schaeffler diagram was used to find an appropriate alloy composition as starting point for alloy development. This diagram was adapted to the L-PBF process by laser-remelting the surfaces of cast specimens with different Ni- and Cr-equivalents. The resulting retained austenite content and the associated residual stresses of the remelted surfaces were determined using x-ray diffraction. Knowing the interaction between the chemical composition, the retained austenite volume fraction, the martensite start temperature, and the residual stress state, an optimal alloy window for L-PBF-processable hot work tool steels could be determined with the help of the adjusted Schaeffler diagram. Finally, a suitable commercially available alloy X38CrMo7–2 was adapted that can be processed using L-PBF without preheating of the build platform. The microstructure and the properties associated (hardness, strength) of the L-PBF-processed and heat-treated steel X38CrMo7–2 were compared with the frequently used tool steel X40CrMoV5–1 (L-PBF-processed with preheating of the build platform of 300 °C).

Cost-Sensitive Multigranulation Approximation in Decision-Making Applications

A multigranulation rough set (MGRS) model is an expansion of the Pawlak rough set, in which the uncertain concept is characterized by optimistic and pessimistic upper/lower approximate boundaries, respectively. However, there is a lack of approximate descriptions of uncertain concepts by existing information granules in MGRS. The approximation sets of rough sets presented by Zhang provide a way to approximately describe knowledge by using existing information granules. Based on the approximation set theory, this paper proposes the cost-sensitive multigranulation approximation of rough sets, i.e., optimistic approximation and pessimistic approximation. Their related properties were further analyzed. Furthermore, a cost-sensitive selection algorithm to optimize the multigranulation approximation was performed. The experimental results show that when multigranulation approximation sets and upper/lower approximation sets are applied to decision-making environments, multigranulation approximation produces the least misclassification costs on each dataset. In particular, misclassification costs are reduced by more than 50% at each granularity on some datasets.

A Short Survey on Deep Learning for Multimodal Integration: Applications, Future Perspectives and Challenges

Deep learning has achieved state-of-the-art performances in several research applications nowadays: from computer vision to bioinformatics, from object detection to image generation. In the context of such newly developed deep-learning approaches, we can define the concept of multimodality. The objective of this research field is to implement methodologies which can use several modalities as input features to perform predictions. In this, there is a strong analogy with respect to what happens with human cognition, since we rely on several different senses to make decisions. In this article, we present a short survey on multimodal integration using deep-learning methods. In a first instance, we comprehensively review the concept of multimodality, describing it from a two-dimensional perspective. First, we provide, in fact, a taxonomical description of the multimodality concept. Secondly, we define the second multimodality dimension as the one describing the fusion approaches in multimodal deep learning. Eventually, we describe four applications of multimodal deep learning to the following fields of research: speech recognition, sentiment analysis, forensic applications and image processing.

In defence of partial faith

AbstractSome people display a general attitude towards God which does not fulfil the criteria of full-blown faith but also does not amount to lack of faith. I argue that in some cases such an attitude, best described as partial faith, is likely to be the all-things-considered best option – even if God exists and the best possible relationship with God is the greatest possible good. This is because, in a universe as religiously ambiguous as ours, some people seem unable to have full-blown faith, and for some others such faith is likely to be possible only at the cost of contradicting some values relevant for the relationship to God. Somehow paradoxically, God-related worries and doubts leading to spiritual struggles and enquiries can improve one's relationship with God, so that, for some people at some times, the advantages of partial faith may override those of full-blown faith. If I am right, it offers some reason to think that partial faith does not deserve the criticism which has traditionally been directed at it. In addition to that, I argue that, independently of the normative assessment, partial faith is a useful descriptive concept, which can throw light on many issues surrounding faith in general and make it easier to describe some themes belonging to continental philosophy of religion in analytic terms.

Sustainable Hydrogen Production from Seawater Electrolysis: Through Fundamental Electrochemical Principles to the Most Recent Development

Among the many potential future energy sources, hydrogen stands out as particularly promising. Because it is a green and renewable chemical process, water electrolysis has earned much interest among the different hydrogen production techniques. Seawater is the most abundant source of water and the ideal and cheapest electrolyte. The first part of this review includes the description of the general theoretical concepts: chemical, physical, and electrochemical, that stands on the basis of water electrolysis. Due to the rapid development of new electrode materials and cell technology, research has focused on specific seawater electrolysis parameters: the cathodic evolution of hydrogen; the concurrent anodic evolution of oxygen and chlorine; specific seawater catalyst electrodes; and analytical methods to describe their catalytic activity and seawater electrolyzer efficiency. Once the specific objectives of seawater electrolysis have been established through the design and energy performance of the electrolyzer, the study further describes the newest challenges that an accessible facility for the electrochemical production of hydrogen as fuel from seawater must respond to for sustainable development: capitalizing on known and emerging technologies; protecting the environment; utilizing green, renewable energies as sources of electricity; and above all, economic efficiency as a whole.

A Novel Localization System in SAR-Demining Applications Using Invariant Radar Channel Fingerprints.

In this paper, we present a novel two dimensional (2D) frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) localization method for handheld systems based on the extraction of distinguishable subchannel fingerprints. Compared with other concepts, only one subdivided radar source channel is needed in order to instantly map a one-dimensional measurement to higher-dimensional space coordinates. The additional information of the detected target is implemented with low-cost hardware component features, which exhibit distinguishable space-dependent fingerprint codes. Using the given a priori information of the hardware thus leads to a universally applicable extension for low-cost synthetic aperture radar (SAR)-demining purposes. In addition to the description of the system concept and its requirements, the signal processing steps and the hardware components are presented. Furthermore, the 2D localization accuracy of the system and the classification accuracy of the frequency-coded fingerprints are described in a defined test environment to proof the operational reliability of the realized setup, reaching a classification accuracy of 94.7% and an averaged localization error of 4.9 mm.
