Busines legal regulation of the contractual use of intellectual property objects

The article examines the peculiarities of legal regulation of contractual relations on the use of intellectual property objects in the field of business. It has been proven that the importance of the civil law regulation of these relations in the norms of the Economic Code of Ukraine is slightly underestimated. The legal regulation of relations on the contractual use of intellectual property objects by economic norms and norms of civil legislation complex. The issue of concluding a contract is ensured by the norms of economic legislation, and the legal status of the creator (or other person who owns property rights to intellectual property) and the legal regime of the object of intellectual property is regulated by the norms of civil legislation.
 Differences in the provisions of economic legislation and the norms of special laws regarding the form of contracts on the transfer of rights to use an intellectual property object were revealed. In special legislation, the written form is defined as a condition for the validity of the contract; the consequences of violation of this condition are defined in the norms of the Civil Code of Ukraine - non-compliance with the written form leads to the invalidity of these contracts.
 A number of factors affecting the content of business contracts on granting the right to use intellectual property objects have been determined. These factors are enshrined in the norms of economic and civil legislation, in particular in special laws that determine the legal regime of individual objects of intellectual property. The value of exemplary and standard contracts for the legal regulation of the use of intellectual property objects on the basis of the contract has been revealed.
 Based on the analysis of the requirements of economic and civil legislation, a list of essential conditions of the economic agreement on the transfer of intellectual property objects for use has been determined. It has been proven that the essential conditions of such an agreement are the conditions on the subject, on the terms, on the methods of using the object of intellectual property, on the territory to which the right to use the object of intellectual property is extended, as well as any conditions in respect of which the requirements at least. one of the parties to the contract must reach an agreement.

The Limits of the Cute: The Persistence of Use in Lorine Niedecker's Poetics

In Our Aesthetic Categories (2012), Sianne Ngai theorizes the "cute," interpreting the turn to the small object in twentieth-century avant-garde poetry as a symptom of late capitalism's hyper-commodification. In response, this essay argues that the cute fails to accurately describe the projects of some avant-garde poets such as Lorine Niedecker. While Ngai's theory presumes a bourgeois subject who projects a sensuous relationship onto objects, obscuring the reality of commodification, Niedecker's poems do not enjoy the luxury of this projection. As a working-class poet, she is aware of objects' impact on her comfort and survival as part of her daily labors. Instead, Niedecker's poems offer a portrait of objects in use, recognizing the poet's reliance on material conditions to live, and further, to create.

INTEGRATION OF SENSOR TECHNOLOGIES IN TRANSPORT SYSTEMS TO CREATE SUSTAINABLE INTELLIGENT TRANSPORT SYSTEMS

Every day on the road, we face the problems of traffic jams, traffic safety and environmental pollution. All this is directly related to the quality and efficiency of transport systems. To solve these problems, information and communication technologies are used, which are increasingly integrated into modern transport systems. Car manufacturers are developing automotive sensors to improve vehicle safety, traffic management and to develop infotainment systems. Government agencies, in turn, are deploying roadside infrastructure, installing CCTV cameras and road sensors to collect environmental and traffic data. Thanks to the seamless integration of sensor technologies into vehicles, their sensor and communication capabilities can be used to create intelligent transport systems. The article discusses the prospects of using sensor sensors to ensure the efficiency of the functioning of transport systems and transport infrastructure as a whole. An analysis of the types of sensors was carried out depending on the object of use - for vehicles and for roads. The programs to ensure the operation of certain sensors are considered separately by category. The process of integration and operation of sensor technologies with information and communication technologies to ensure the effective functioning of the intelligent transport system is considered as an example. Having drawn a conclusion from the conducted research, it can be assumed that the development of sensor technologies and their integration into the transport system will significantly increase the safety of traffic participants and increase the efficiency of the transport system as a whole.

Non-Intrusive Real Time Eye Tracking Using Facial Alignment for Assistive Technologies.

Most affordable eye tracking systems use either intrusive setup such as head-mounted cameras or use fixed cameras with infrared corneal reflections via illuminators. In the case of assistive technologies, using intrusive eye tracking systems can be a burden to wear for extended periods of time and infrared based solutions generally do not work in all environments, especially outside or inside if the sunlight reaches the space. Therefore, we propose an eye-tracking solution using state-of-the-art convolutional neural network face alignment algorithms that is both accurate and lightweight for assistive tasks such as selecting an object for use with assistive robotics arms. This solution uses a simple webcam for gaze and face position and pose estimation. We achieve a much faster computation time than the current state-of-the-art while maintaining comparable accuracy. This paves the way for accurate appearance-based gaze estimation even on mobile devices, giving an average error of around 4.5°on the MPIIGaze dataset [1] and state-of-the-art average errors of 3.9°and 3.3°on the UTMultiview [2] and GazeCapture [3], [4] datasets respectively, while achieving a decrease in computation time of up to 91%.

Immerse, Interact and Iterate: Virtual Reality Prototyping of Cervical Brachytherapy Procedures

<h3>Purpose/Objective(s)</h3> Cervical brachytherapy (BT) is increasingly complex to execute, but critical to curing locally advanced cervical cancer (CC). BT has traditionally been learned one on one with experienced preceptors through direct care of patients. Research shows declining opportunities for radiation oncology residents to learn and practice BT for CC. How best to strengthen, accelerate, and democratize training in CC BT remains debatable. Virtual reality (VR) simulation has been demonstrated to be effective in enabling learners to acquire procedural skills with no risk to patient safety. This work elucidates the process of designing for more impactful BT procedural learning, leading to a novel immersive hands-on VR simulation for CC BT. <h3>Materials/Methods</h3> The concept-into-application process started with defining needs relative to technical and experiential CC BT learning, with practical considerations for trainees, clinicians, and administrative stakeholders. Multiple cycles of informal hands-on ideating, immersing and redefining, all key steps in design thinking, progressed for 18 months before actualization of a first-in-kind VR simulation prototype. CC BT guidelines-inspired learning outcomes were constructed following consultation with relevant domain experts. Detailed process mapping of an intracavitary/interstitial CC BT applicator insertion preceded drafting of a representative case vignette. 3-dimensional (3D) modelling of usual surgical instruments, and a next-generation BT applicator was done through computed tomography (CT) imaging, segmentation and postprocessing, to generate filmbox-format objects for use in the VR environment. The simulation was coded to mimic actual CC BT applicator insertion in an operating room. <h3>Results</h3> Optimized for headset/controllers but compatible with others, the simulation starts with the user facing a draped computer-generated patient and an instrument tray. Tasks are prompted, to be performed in proper sequence, and multiple-choice questions pop-ups, to be answered correctly, for the simulation completion. The simulation permits non-playing observers and may be paused or repeated at will. At the end of simulation, the user is informed of the standard post-procedural steps i.e., imaging for applicator position verification and planning. <h3>Conclusion</h3> A performance-oriented VR simulator for CC BT applicator insertion procedure has been developed as a first step in evolutionary prototyping towards a full-function BT instructional tool. VR remains an underutilized avenue in BT education despite the plethora of evidence demonstrating improved skill and knowledge acquisition with its use in other medical specialties. Further expansion of this innovative tool will entail establishing a case bank, incorporating imaging studies and performance metrics. Validation of the simulation as an educational tool is currently underway.

AUTOMATED CHECKING SYSTEM FOR MODULAR BIM OBJECTS

With the increasing popularity of modular buildings, many manufacturers have made BIM objects for use by designers. However, these BIM objects must satisfy specific regulations and requirements, and their quality needs to be verified. In this study, the authors propose an automated checking system for modular BIM object quality verification. The system includes three parts, which are modular BIM object guideline, pre-checking module and automated code checking module. The modular BIM object quality verification system is proposed to be applied to government modular product certification site for checking the modular BIM objects. It is expected that the use of this automated checking system will make it possible to connect users and manufacturers to promote the circulation of modular building products, as well as provide designers with standardized modular BIM objects for design purposes.

Obra de arte e verdade: Sobre a inversão de Heidegger da estética de Platão

According to the doctrine set out in Book X of the Republic, art is for Plato three degrees far from truth. This doctrine is based on the representative character of art: in his productions, the artist takes sensible things and not the ideas as his model, and ignores the use of the objects that the craftsman produces. In the essay The Origin of the Work of Art, Heidegger completely reverses this Platonic hierarchy. The essay seems to be an indirect response to Plato, as it discusses exactly the distinctions Plato draws, between natural object (the idea, which is “by nature”), object of use and work of art. The work of art – even when it imitates an object of use, as in the case of van Gogh’s painting of a pair of shoes – is for Heidegger the “setting-itself-to-work of truth”, because it shows the primarily ontological character of every work: its fabrication, that is, its historical being. The truth of the work of art lies in its historical character, and the work of art is the happening of truth because, more than any other object, its essence consists precisely in showing the temporal character as the essence of every object, even the natural ones.

МОДУЛЬ КОРРЕКТИРОВКИ ПАРАМЕТРОВ АЛГОРИТМОВ АВТОМАТИЧЕСКОГО ОБНАРУЖЕНИЯ И СОПРОВОЖДЕНИЯ ОБЪЕКТОВ ДЛЯ ОПТИКО-ЭЛЕКТРОННЫХ СИСТЕМ

In order to create an innovative module for automatic correction of algorithms for automaticdetection and tracking of objects with real-time training, a study of world experience in the fieldof general-purpose automatic tracking with the ability to recognize the tracking object for use inembedded computing devices of optoelectronic systems of promising robotic complexes was carriedout. Based on the conducted research, methods and approaches have been selected and testedthat allow with the greatest accuracy, while maintaining high computational efficiency, to provideon-the-fly training of classifiers (online learning) without a priori knowledge of the type of tracking object and to ensure subsequent correction during tracking and detection of the original objectin case of its short-term loss. Such methods include a histogram of directional gradients – a descriptorof key features based on the analysis of the distribution of brightness gradients of an objectimage. Its use allows you to reduce the amount of information used without losing key dataabout the object and increase the speed of image processing. The article substantiates the choiceof one of the classification algorithms in real time, which allows solving the problem of binaryclassification - the method of support vectors. Due to the high speed of data processing and theneed for a small amount of initial training data to build a separating hyperplane, on the basis ofwhich the classification of objects takes place, this method is chosen as the most suitable for solvingthe task. To implement online training, a modification of the support vector machine was chosen,implementing stochastic gradient descent at each step of the algorithm – Pegasos. Anotherauxiliary method is the clustering method of key points – this ensures an accelerated selection ofobjects for classification and training. The authors of the study carried out the development andsemi-natural modeling of the proposed module, evaluated the effectiveness of its work in the tasksof correcting and detecting the object of interest in real time with preliminary online training inthe process of tracking the object. The developed algorithm has shown high efficiency in solvingthe problem. In conclusion, proposals are presented to further improve the accuracy and probabilityof detecting an object of interest by the developed algorithm, as well as to improve its performanceby optimizing calculations.

Development of a Japanese version of the Psychological Ownership Scale.

The present study addresses the need for a valid instrument for measuring dimensions of psychological ownership, including that of owned and non-owned objects, for use in the language and culture of Japan. Although the theory of psychological ownership has expanded self-extension theory, the most widely used scale of psychological ownership does not measure the extent to which one feels that it (the owned object) is a part of them. Thus, the present study aimed to develop a Japanese version of the Psychological Ownership Scale (POS-J) and examine its reliability and validity. Study 1 measured the POS-J of an owned object, finding the POS-J to have a two-factor structure (possession-self link and feeling of ownership) and its internal consistency and reliability to be adequate. Moreover, POS-J scores were positively correlated with perceived control and self-extension tendency, but not monetary value, indicating that conceptual validity was generally supported. To confirm whether the POS-J could be used for a non-owned object, Study 2 rephrased the expressions of item descriptions and examined the effect of imagining touching a non-owned object on the POS-J scores, showing that doing so increased the POS-J scores for the object. Our findings suggest that the POS-J is a reliable and valid measure of the psychological ownership of owned and non-owned objects for use in Japan.

IDENTIFICATION OF MICROORGANISMS ISOLATED FROM OIL RESERVOIR WATER OF THE AKINGEN FIELD, KAZAKHSTAN

Currently, there is a continuous growth of deposits in Western Kazakhstan that are in the late stage of development. Deposits often have a complex heterogeneous structure with hard-to-recover reserves, so for their effective development it is necessary to apply methods of increasing oil recovery. One of the most effective methods of enhanced oil recovery is microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR). Microorganisms of the developed oil-reservoir waters, adapted to the extreme underground conditions of the reservoirs, are promising objects for the development of microbiological methods for increasing oil recovery, based on their ability to displace and dilute oil. The article presents the identification of aerobic microorganisms, waterlogged oil reservoir waters of the Akingen field. The aim of this study was to identify microorganisms of oil-reservoir waters of the Akingen field isolated under aerobic conditions. Traditional microbiological and genetic methods of identification of microorganisms are used in the research work. The enzymatic activity of the isolated strains (lipase, amylolytic, proteolytic activity) was evaluated. The emulsification index was carried out according to the Cooper method. As a result of microbiological and genetic studies of the nucleotide sequence of the 16S rRNA gene fragment, 14 aerobic strains of microorganisms were identified as representatives of the genus Pseudomonas and Bacillus, in particular, Bacillus paramycoides-M1; B. subtilis subsp. spizizenii-S1; Bacillus sp. - M2, A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, S2, S3, D-1X; P. aeruginosa-D5, D6, D7. The evaluation of emulsifying activity allowed us to identify 4 strains of microorganisms with a high oil emulsification index: P. aeruginosa-D5, D6, D7 (40-49 %) and Bacillus sp. D1X (32 %). Isolates P. aeruginosa - D5, D6, D7 and Bacillus sp. D1X are promising objects for use in enhanced oil recovery technologies.

Affordances of physical objects as a material mode of representation: A social semiotics perspective of hands-on meaning-making

ABSTRACT This paper examines the affordances of physical objects (e.g. apparatus, models, manipulatives) as they were used by teachers and students to make meaning in coordination with their speech and gestures. Despite the pervasive use of physical objects as material and tactile resources in hands-on investigations or demonstrations, there have been few attempts to analyze their role and function in meaning-making, in the same way, that researchers have previously done for other modes of representation such as speech, written text, diagram and gesture. Using social semiotics as a theoretical framework, we conceptualise physical objects as a semiotic mode with a particular affordance for making meaning that involves embodied actions and manipulation of tools. Based on a multimodal discourse analysis of numerous classroom situations, we illustrate how physical objects as a mode have four unique affordances for meaning-making in science classrooms. These affordances are: (a) enacting material interaction, (b) providing evidential meaning, (c) orientating three-dimensional spatial meaning and (d) sensitising experiential meaning. The implication of why we should use physical objects to support or value-add science meaning-making is then discussed.

Право гражданина на изображение: актуальные проблемы охраны

Relevance. The right of a citizen to an image as a personal non-property right is subject to absolute protection in accordance with Art. 152.1 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. In doctrine and in legal practice, there is no unity of opinion on the civil protection of the right to its image, including the legality of its use and promulgation by other persons, as well as the interpretation of the provisions of the relevant rule and the terminology available in it. In this regard, the work considers gaps in current legislation based on the scientific views of civil law experts and established judicial practice. The purpose of the study is to supplement the theoretical provisions and legislative proposals aimed at deepening scientific knowledge about the protection of the right to the image of a citizen and the uniform application of Art. 152.1 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. Objectives: to analyze the scientific positions available in the theory of civil law and Russian judicial practice in cases on the protection of the right to portray a citizen; Identify and clarify existing legal gaps that impede its proper protection; update the previously formulated proposals of civilists to amend Art. 152.1 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. Methodology. The study was conducted using methods of induction and deduction, analysis and synthesis, formal-legal, system-analytical and logical methods. The results of the study are formulated proposals for solving theoretical problems related to the application of Art. 152.1 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, and improving the current norm on the protection of human rights to the image in order to uniformly enforce it. Conclusion. The study allows us to assert that the rule on the protection of the right to an image of a citizen requires refinement in terms of terminology, including the development of the definition of the image, the appearance of a person, the main object of use, places open for free visits, the form of expression of consent to the publication of one's image, and the elimination of other gaps requiring the attention of the legislator.

Supplement consumption profile by strength training practitioners in Brazil: a literature review

The search for muscle hypertrophy and health improvements has increased both the number of exercisers and the consumption of supplements. The correct use is able to delay muscle fatigue and improve sports performance. However, inadequate supplementation can cause several health problems, so it is necessary to seek a qualified professional for indication of use. The present literature review objective to evaluate the profile of supplement consumption in gyms in different cities and states in Brazil. The research was carried out through a literature review, within the criteria established by the PRISMA Statement. The following databases were used: PubMed, Google Scholar and SciELO, integrating only studies about the use of dietary supplements by strength training practitioners in Brazil, using 25 scientific articles, published between 2011 and 2021. The results shows that the most cited objective for use of supplementation was for muscle hypertrophy, where the most used supplements was whey protein. Another relevant result was the lack of indication of a suitable professional, such as a nutritionist, for consumption recommendation. On the other hand, the main sources of indication were Physical Education professionals, followed by friends and self-referral, which can result in inadequate consumption and, consequently, bring health risks.

Protein-Based Films as Antifouling and Drug-Eluting Antimicrobial Coatings for Medical Implants

Nosocomial infections, caused by bacterial contamination of medical devices and implants, are a serious healthcare concern. We demonstrate here, the use of fluorous-cured protein nanofilm coatings for generating antimicrobial surfaces. In this approach, bacteria-repelling films are created by heat-curing proteins in fluorous media. These films are then loaded with antibiotics, with release controlled via electrostatic interactions between therapeutic and protein film building blocks to provide bactericidal surfaces. This film fabrication process is additive-free, biocompatible, biodegradable, and can be used to provide antimicrobial coatings for both three-dimensional (2D) and 3D objects for use in indwelling devices.

Quantifying the coherent interaction length of second-harmonic microscopy in lithium niobate confined nanostructures

Thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) in the form of x- or z-cut lithium-niobate-on-insulator has attracted considerable interest as a very promising and novel platform for developing integrated optoelectronic (nano)devices and exploring fundamental research. Here, we investigate the coherent interaction length lc of optical second-harmonic generation (SHG) microscopy in such samples, that are purposely prepared into a wedge shape, in order to elegantly tune the geometrical confinement from bulk thicknesses down to approximately 50 nm. SHG microscopy is a very powerful and non-invasive tool for the investigation of structural properties in the biological and solid-state sciences, especially for visualizing and analyzing ferroelectric domains and domain walls. However, unlike in bulk lithium niobate (LN), SHG microscopy in TFLN is impacted by interfacial reflections and resonant enhancement, both of which rely on film thickness and substrate material. In this paper, we show that the dominant SHG contribution measured on TFLN in backreflection is the co-propagating phase-matched SHG signal and not the counter-propagating SHG portion as is the case for bulk LN samples. Moreover, lc depends on the incident pump laser wavelength (sample dispersion) but also on the numerical aperture of the focussing objective in use. These experimental findings on x- and z-cut TFLN are excellently backed up by our advanced numerical simulations.

Attachment and Associational Dimensions in the Architecture of Historical Building Conversion in Thailand Between 1997 and 2012

The research on The Initial Survey of Evolution of Adaptive Reuse of Historic Buildings in Thailand is aimed at constructing knowledge for the module named Reuse and Rehabilitation of Historic Buildings. This module is part of the curriculum of Bachelor of Architecture, which studies the role of architecture fabricated within historical buildings. In the era between 1997 and 2012 in Thailand, there was a notable transformation from conservation to contemporary conversion. A review of conservation perspectives indicates a combined multi-disciplinary cooperation between architectural design and conservation. To establish issues regarding the knowledge of conversion, a research question is raised: how do architectural elements play its role through changing of use? Aimed at understanding the complexity among conversion ideologies, issues surrounding architectural elements of historical buildings are rationally explored. Based on significant conversion projects from 1996 to 2012, architectural elements were referenced as to how concepts and objectives were associated. Qualitative research was conducted through a study of primary sources; survey and classification of representative samples, and secondary documents, records and architectural drawings. The controlling significance of the buildings led to a discussion and an analysis of the architectural designs through new additions and amendments made on the historical fabric. Included in this discussion are the principles of conversion as they relate to the architecture of historic buildings and the ideology of the modification. It is found that understanding a change to architectural elements through an ontological perspective, that of attachment and associational approaches, could clearly reveal the construction programme that felicitates the historical building for which conservation or adaptation is determined. A dialogue on relevant contexts surrounding amendments of architectural elements demonstrated that a strong emphasis towards particular objectives of use could coincidentally harm the historical building’s architectural dimension framework. This leads to the notion that architecture for adaptive reuse should include knowledge of the original construction, a balance among conditions of the existing building, its programming and further habitation.

Dancing with the Fan

The article addresses several issues concerning a Japanese fan and the kimonos found in the collection of Ivan Skušek from Slovene Ethnographic Museum. They belonged to Ivan Skušek’s Japanese wife Marija Tsuneko Skušek, and were after her death donated to the museum together with other objects from the Skušek collection. With analysing these items and researching the life of Marija Tsuneko Skušek the article discusses the roles these objects had in transmitting Japanese culture to Slovene audience with a focus on the Japanese dances as one way of transmission. During her life in Ljubljana, Marija Skušek in one way adopted to the Slovene society very quickly, but on the other hand she presented Japanese culture and her identity in several lectures along with Japanese songs, dances and a tea ceremony. With researching the roles and values of these object in the museum collection, the article also discusses the importance of understanding not only the physical appearance of the items and their life, but also the wider background of items and collection, focusing also on the owner of these items in the relation to the collector. It is also important to stress how these objects transformed from daily objects of use to rarefied art after they were handed over to the museum, and within this process their value also changed.
