Meta Koopman decomposition for time series forecasting under temporal distribution shifts

Time series forecasting facilitates various real-world applications and has attracted great research interests. In real-world scenarios, time series forecasting models confront a fundamental issue of temporal distribution shifts (TDS), i.e., the statistical properties of time series are evolving over time. In this paper, we utilize Koopman theory to address temporal distribution shifts. Koopman theory states any time series can be mapped into a Koopman space by proper measurement functions with their dynamics modeled by the infinite-dimensional linear Koopman operator. Therefore, time series under different distributions can be modeled by different Koopman operators. Considering the linearity of Koopman operators, the Koopman operators for representing time series under different distributions can be decomposed as a linear combination of a set of Koopman operators, which we termed as meta Koopman operators. We further theoretically show the infinite-dimensional Koopman operators can be approximated by finite matrix multiplications and the meta Koopman operators are equivalent to a set of matrices. Based on the analysis, we propose an auto-encoder framework for implementing the meta Koopman decomposition of time series, which is theoretically capable of handling TDS. Extensive experiments conducted on four real-world time series datasets demonstrate the superiority of the proposed model in tackling temporal distribution shifts.

Metrological traceability of moisture/water content measurements

This paper explains advantages and disadvantages of the measurement methods for moisture and water content determinations in plant-based materials, in order to identify the method providing the best metrological features.The term “moisture” is generic and it does not identify a specific measurand. In this sense, to declare proper Calibration and Measurement Capabilities (CMCs) and to develop Certified Reference Materials (CRMs), a better specification of the measurand should be given. Currently, no CMCs for moisture or water content measurements in the plant-origin bulk materials, as well as respective CRMs, are available in the Key Comparison Database (KCDB) published on the website of the Bureau International del Poids et Mesures (BIPM). Undoubtedly, those CMCs and CRMs, characterised for water content, are crucial and essential to provide metrological traceability of measurement results for the quality assessment of plant-origin bulk materials in the agricultural sector.

Effect of Hyaluronic Acid on Socket Healing After Lower Impacted Third Molar Tooth Extraction in 40 Dental Patients.

BACKGROUND Surgical extraction of impacted mandibular third molars is the most commonly performed procedure in oral surgery; its associated complications include sensory nerve damage, swelling, and trismus. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of hyaluronic acid (HA) on healing of the socket following extraction of the lower impacted third molar tooth in 40 dental patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS This prospective, double-blind, randomized, controlled study was carried out on 40 adult healthy patients indicated for surgical removal of bilateral impacted mandibular third molars with equal surgical difficulty (moderate surgical difficulty according to the Koerner index. Patients with right mandibular third molars were included into the study (HA) group and those with left mandibular third molars were included into the control group. Surgical removal of impacted teeth was performed at different times for each patient for proper measurement of postoperative clinical variables, including pain, swelling, and mouth opening. RESULTS Postoperative pain evaluation results using the visual analog scale (VAS) showed reduced pain levels at all observation periods. Postoperative swelling peaked in intensity within 12-48 hours, resolving between the 5th and 7th days, and there was no significant difference in pre- and postoperative measurements of interincisal opening between both groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS We found that intra-socket application of hyaluronic acid after surgical extraction of impacted mandibular third molars promoted normal wound healing, and there was a clinical benefit of reduced postoperative pain and swelling.

Accountability, Donor Funding and Non-Governmental Organisations in Kisumu County in Kenya

Accountability is an important aspect of all organisations today. Accountable NGOs have been found to receive large funding from donors and thus undertake development programs that alleviate human suffering. This study is set to establish the accountability of donor funding by non-governmental organisations in Kisumu County. The study adopted a descriptive survey design. The target population was the NGOs located in Kisumu County- Kenya. The population was made up of all the 187 NGOs in the region. The use of open-ended questions was justified because some of the information concerned sensitive matters of the NGOs, particularly those involving finances and governance. The study established that donor funding was dependent on the accountability mechanisms put in place by the implementing NGOs. The study revealed that NGOs were expected to keep a minimum set of financial statements, e.g. Statements of comprehensive income, statements of financial position and cash flow statements. The study revealed that community involvement in the oversight of NGOs was still not adequately practised and that satisfaction of the employees with their pay perks could not be established. Donors were keen on compliance with the laws of the country and involved the oversight bodies in checking the compliance and legitimacy of the NGOs before funding and partnering with them. It was established that donors expected performance measurements to be done and that NGOs prepared specific reports. The donors also demanded that the authenticity of the financial statements be verified by independent auditors. Therefore, this study recommends that NGOs develop proper and effective accountability mechanisms to measure performance and enhance legitimacy and accountability. This will include using proper performance measurement tools and compliance with donor and government regulations to secure sustained financing and ensure that the County's development agenda is achieved. The study further recommends that the NGOs procure the services of recognised audit firms that will offer value-adding audits, which, in effect, will boost donor confidence.

'Effects of dehydration on central blood pressure in young healthy adults'.

Brachial blood pressure (BP) is the current gold standard for BP assessment; however, measures of pulse wave velocity (PWV) and central blood pressure (CBP) may contribute uniquely to assessment of cardiovascular health status. As of yet, standards for assessment of CBP and PWV have not addressed the impact of hydration status on proper measurement. To understand the impact of hydration, PWV and CBP should be measured in a euhydrated and hypohydrated state. Forty-three young, healthy participants (21 ± 2 years) completed a dehydration protocol utilizing moderate aerobic activity until they lost 1%-2% of their body weight. PWV and CBP were measured before and following the dehydration protocol. Linear regression was utilized to assess change in hydration status and change in PWV and CBP. No significant relationships were observed between the change in hydration status (% body weight lost) and PWV (β = 0.05, p = 0.78) or central diastolic BP (β = -3.8, p = 0.10), however, a significant relationship was observed with central systolic BP (β = -5.0, p = 0.03). In conclusion, the assessment of hydration status before measurement of CBP or PWV may not be necessary in young, healthy individuals.

Comparative study of erythrocyte sedimentation rate measurement between Celltac Alpha+ (MEK-1305) ESR Analyzer and standard Westergren method

Background: The Westergren method, a gold standard method for erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) measurement, is one of the screening tests for routine clinical hematology that can be used as an inflammation marker. Since the results can be altered by numerous factors, new methodologies have been established to manage the possible pitfalls. Objective: This study compared erythrocyte sedimentation rate measurements obtained by the Celltac Alpha+ (MEK-1305) Automated Hematology and ESR analyzer with those obtained by the standard Westergren method. Materials and methods: The Celltac Alpha+ (MEK-1305) Automated Hematology and ESR analyzer was used to assess the performance of ESR measurement compared to the standard Westergren method. A total of 220 random EDTA whole blood samples from patients were included and analyzed in parallel using the automated analyzer and the standard Westergren method. Results: Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient (ρ = 0.916) obtained a good correlation between the two methods. In addition, the precision was good and acceptable according to the criteria, with a %CV of less than 10% in both intra-run and inter-run precision. There was no contamination between blood samples from using a single capillary probe. Moreover, Bland-Altman mean difference plot also indicated a good agreement, with a mean bias of -1.4 (95% CI: -0.8 to 2.1), an upper LOA of 7.6 (95% CI: 6.6 to 8.7) and a lower LOA = -10.5 (95% CI: -11.6 to -9.5). Conclusion: This comparative study indicated that the Celltac Alpha+ (MEK-1305) Automated Hematology and ESR analyzer is applicable within clinical routine practice along with proper measurement regulation. Even though the principles between these two methods are completely different, an acceptable interrelation was obtained due to the calibration process by Nihon Kohden corporation.

Characterizing social communication among minimally verbal children with autism: An application of item response theory.

Minimally verbal children constitute a portion of the autism spectrum. The paucity of proper measurement tools that sensitively and accurately assess behaviors has been one limiting factor in the improved knowledge of these children. Short of creating and validating a new measurement tool for this subpopulation, this study took an alternative and more immediate approach: conduct a secondary data analysis and examine an existing social communication measure, the Early Social Communication Scales (ESCS), with item response theory. The final sample consisted of 453 minimally verbal children culled from four different completed studies. The IRT models analyzed the frequency of social communication gestures from the ESCS and returned an objective difficulty hierarchy regarding initiations of joint attention and behavior regulation gestures. The best-fitting and final model was a zero-inflated negative binomial model (ZINBM), which determined that joint attention gestures were, on average, more difficult than behavior regulation gestures. Joint attentional shows and gives were essentially absent in the children's repertoire, and behavior regulation reaches were the easiest gestures for this sample. The ZINBM separately modeled children with some gestures and children who did not present with any gestures and determined that behavior regulation reaches and gives were likely the first gestures a child will eventually exhibit among children with no gestures. Methodological contributions and potential future applications of IRT are discussed.

Using mid-upper arm circumference z -score measurement to support youth malnutrition screening as part of a global sports and wellness program and improve access to nutrition care.

Historically, mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) has been instrumental to identifying malnutrition in children under 5 years living in resource restricted settings. Less attention is directed to at-risk, school-aged youth. Updated and validated pediatric age- and gender-specific MUAC growth curves expand malnutrition screening opportunities (2 months-18 years) including overweight/obesity. An innovative partnership was created to integrate MUAC z-score measurement trainings and screenings in the Real Madrid Foundation's (RMF) Social Sports Schools (S3) program, which provide sports and wellness programming to under-resourced communities. This work aimed to investigate the feasibility of leveraging non-healthcare professionals (non-HCPs) to identify malnutrition risk as part of RMF S3. This global, two-part program on malnutrition risk identification included training adult facilitators and screening children attending RMF S3. RMF facilitators were trained with didactic lectures on malnutrition, and practical hands-on learning of proper MUAC z-score tape measurement. Aggregate data on facilitators and the number of times to correctly administer the MUAC z-tape were recorded. Aggregate data on child malnutrition risk screenings were collected. Nine countries participated representing Europe, Pacific Asia, Africa, Latin America, and North America. In total, 143 RMF facilitators were trained, and 318 children were screened across 11 sites. More than half of facilitators were male (56%, n = 80), and majority were coaches (41.3%, n = 59), followed by staff (25.2%, n = 36), and volunteers (16.1%, n = 23). Facilitator attempts ranged from 1 to 4 times for proper MUAC z-score administration with mean 2.12 (± 0.86). There were no significant differences for attempts among RMF facilitator types (p = 0.10). Sixteen percent (n = 51) of children screened were recommended for HCP referral, with concentrations in Pacific Asia (68%, n = 35), Latin America (24%, n = 12), and Africa (8%, n = 4). Findings from our sample demonstrate that integration of MUAC z-score based malnutrition risk screening within community sports and wellness programming among non-HCPs is feasible, and that some regions with less frequent access to routine health care may experience greater benefit from these programs. Equipping non-HCP facilitators in community sports and wellness programs with training on malnutrition screening provides a means to meet under-resourced families where they live to begin conversations around malnutrition risk with the hope of establishing additional pathways to care.

Standardization of a Novel Semi-Automatic Software for Neurite Outgrowth Measurement.

Effective live-imaging techniques are crucial to assess neuronal morphology in order to measure neurite outgrowth in real time. The proper measurement of neurite outgrowth has been a long-standing challenge over the years in the neuroscience research field. This parameter serves as a cornerstone in numerous in vitro experimental setups, ranging from dissociated cultures and organotypic cultures to cell lines. By quantifying the neurite length, it is possible to determine if a specific treatment worked or if axonal regeneration is enhanced in different experimental groups. In this study, the aim is to demonstrate the robustness and accuracy of the Incucyte Neurotrack neurite outgrowth analysis software. This semi-automatic software is available in a time-lapse microscopy system which offers several advantages over commonly used methodologies in the quantification of the neurite length in phase contrast images. The algorithm masks and quantifies several parameters in each image and returns neuronal cell metrics, including neurite length, branch points, cell-body clusters, and cell-body cluster areas. Firstly, we validated the robustness and accuracy of the software by correlating its values with those of the manual NeuronJ, a Fiji plug-in. Secondly, we used the algorithm which is able to work both on phase contrast images as well as on immunocytochemistry images. Using specific neuronal markers, we validated the feasibility of the fluorescence-based neurite outgrowth analysis on sensory neurons in vitro cultures. Additionally, this software can measure neurite length across various seeding conditions, ranging from individual cells to complex neuronal nets. In conclusion, the software provides an innovative and time-effective platform for neurite outgrowth assays, paving the way for faster and more reliable quantifications.

The Evaluation of Water Loss in The Western North Tarum Irrigation Channel

The Western North Tarum Irrigation channel plays a crucial role in supplying water to irrigated agricultural areas. However, it encounters challenges in ensuring adequate water delivery to all channel segments. This research assesses water loss during the distribution process in the Western North Tarum Irrigation channel, focusing on the evaluation of channel capacity and the impact of suboptimal water management on water loss. The study employs the HEC-RAS model, a hydraulic system analysis tool, to evaluate the channel’s capacity and simulates its behavior under various discharge conditions. The evaluation reveals that two channel segments, B.TUB 13 and B.TUB 25, have exceeded their capacity limits, resulting in overflow. Sedimentation downstream, particularly in these segments, exacerbates the issue by altering the channel slope and impeding water flow. This research identifies poor water distribution management as a significant factor contributing to water loss in the irrigation channel. Inadequate scheduling and the absence of proper water measurement tools result in instances of overwatering or underwatering in some areas. The lack of monitoring and control in the irrigation system hampers the detection of uncontrolled flow in the channels, leading to substantial water loss and inefficient water use. This research underscores the importance of evaluating and maintaining irrigation channel capacity to prevent overflow and water loss. Furthermore, it emphasizes the significance of effective water management to achieve more efficient water distribution and irrigation. Addressing these challenges is crucial for ensuring the long-term sustainability of irrigated agriculture in the Western North Tarum Irrigation area.Keywords: HEC-RAS, Irrigation Channel, Water Distribution, Water Loss, Western North Tarum

Always on? Development and validation of the Employee Digital Disconnection Scale (EDDS)

ABSTRACT Information and communication technologies (ICTs) profoundly permeated employees’ day-to-day jobs, offering benefits like improved communication and flexibility, but also posing challenges such as interruptions and the blurring of boundaries between work and personal life. The state of being “always on” takes a toll on employees’ mental well-being and job satisfaction. In response, digital disconnection emerged as a strategy for individuals to intentionally limit their use of electronic devices and digital applications. However, limited research exists on digital disconnection within the context of work, and a proper measurement tool is lacking. We address this by introducing the Employee Digital Disconnection Scale (EDDS), a multifaceted measurement tool that captures various disconnective behaviours. The EDDS encompasses three contexts of digital disconnection: disconnecting from work-related ICTs outside of work, disconnecting from private ICTs during work, and disconnecting from work-related ICTs during work. Across five studies, we develop the scale, demonstrate its strong psychometric properties, and explore its associations with stress coping, psychological detachment, concentration, and responsiveness, among other factors. The EDDS serves as a valuable instrument for future research on digital disconnection in the workplace, enabling empirical studies on the antecedents and consequences of digital disconnection on employee well-being and performance.

Strategic management of human resources: Analysing the significance of human capital in the organization

Strategic management for human resources (HR) entails maximizing human capital's value and integrating with organizational objectives to maintain competitive advantage and performance. Limited emphasis on employee well-being, resistance to transformation, disregard for diversity and inability to adapt hinder efficient human capital development. This review improves the efficiency of organizations through strategic HR administration, analyzing and improving the value of human capital during longer-term achievements. Here, we explained the HR that includes HR management approaches with sustainability competitiveness, as well as HR framework levels with proper measurement and integrative framework for HR management. Following that, we described human capital such as economics and social significance for human capital, characteristics for human capital, leveraging human capital for a competitive advantage and workforce-centric organizations. Then, we demonstrate an interactive relationship framework for human and organizational capital. Strategic HR management improves organizational efficiency by leveraging the entire possibilities of human capital for long-term achievement and competitive advantages.

Enhancing scale factor stability of IFOGs through an optimized proper frequency measurement method: The even frequency doubled sine wave modulation

Even frequency doubled sine wave modulation is an existing method for measuring the proper frequency of closed-loop interferometric fiber optic gyroscopes (IFOGs). In this paper, we first provide a comprehensive explanation of the underlying principle of this method. Secondly, we refine the existing approach and expand its applicability from IFOGs using square wave modulation to those using four-state modulation. On this foundation, we present both theoretical and experimental evidence demonstrating that this method can enhance the stability of the IFOG’s scale factor. During a linear heating process from −40 °C to 60 °C, the angle random walk (ARW) exhibited a slight decrease of 1.4%, while the stability of the FOG’s scale factor significantly improved by a factor of 6.7 in our evaluation system. Moreover, for the first time, we reveal the interaction between the added sine wave and the original rotation rate demodulation system. This interaction is analyzed theoretically, and the conclusions drawn from this analysis are supported by experimental validation.

Scratch hardness of diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings deposited by closed-field unbalanced magnetron sputtering

Thin coatings are subject to scratch and wear damage in tribological applications. Scratch hardness numbers are used to evaluate scratch and abrasive wear resistance. Few studies have measured the scratch hardness of thin films, and a proper scratch hardness measurement method for thin coatings is still lacking. In this study, the scratch hardness of these DLC coatings was measured at both micro-scale and nano-scale, respectively. The micro-scratch test using a 200 µm tip is an inapplicable method because the substrate effect has dominated the scratch hardness measurement. On the other hand, a nano-scratch hardness test using a sharper tip is an effective method to measure the scratch hardness of thin coatings. Although the scratch hardness introduces a lateral force compared with the indentation hardness, it well correlates with the nano-indentation hardness. The ratio of the scratch hardness to the indentation hardness is close to 1 for DLC coatings due to the amorphous structure. It proves that the tangential force induced by scratching does not influence the hardness property. In addition, a simple approach is proposed to obtain the scratch hardness of DLC coatings qualitatively without width measurement.

Qualitative Assessment CIH Institutions' Engagement With Underserved Communities to Enhance Healthcare Access and Utilization.

In North America, there is a notable underutilization of complementary and integrative health approaches (CIH) among non-White and marginalized communities. This study sought to understand how CIH educational instutitions are proactively working to redress this disparity in access and utilization among these communities. We conducted interviews with 26 key informants, including presidents, clinicians, and research deans across 13 CIH educational institutions across the US and Canada. Thematic analysis included deductive codes based on the interview guide during interview scripts review. Six themes were identified: (1) CIH institutions often had a long and varied history of community engaged care through partnerships to increase access and utilization; (2) CIH institutions' long-standing community outreach had been intentionally designed; (3) CIH institutions provided an array of services to a wide range of demographics and communities; (4) addressing healthcare access and utilization through community partnerships had a strong positive impact; (5) funding, staffing and COVID-19 were significant challenges that impeded efforts to increase CIH access through community engaged work; (6) identified gaps in community partnerships and services to increase access and utilization were recognized. These findings underscore significant efforts made to enhance healthcare access and utilization among marginalized, underserved, and racial and ethnic communities. However, barriers such as funding constraints, resource allocation, and the need for proper measurement and accountability hinder proactive initiatives aimed at redressing disparities in CIH utilization within these communities.

Quantum state transfer through system-environment correlation

Quantum state transfer protocol based on system-environment correlation is studied. Different from that in protocol of quantum teleportation, in the present transfer protocol, parties do not share entangled state initially. The state factors are transmitted among parties through their common memory-environment. Explicitly, with the generation of system-environment correlation, state factors parameterized on the probe system can be transmitted to the environment by performing proper projective measurement on the probe system. Then after knowing the results of former measurements, other parties can estimate the state factors by preparing proper detectors that evolve with the memory environment for a proper period of time. In this regard, quantum state is transmitted among different parties through system-environment correlation. Since quantum decoherence appears along with the generation of system-environment correlation, using the present transfer protocol, one can transmit quantum state even after the characteristic time of quantum decoherence.

Scientific Study of Dalhanokta Anguli Pramana (Measurement) with reference to Purusha Ura Vistaar (Male Chest Breadth)

In Ayurveda the word “Pramana” refers to measurement. Ayurveda classic have explained the normal measurements of Anga Pratyanga in terms of Ayama (length), Vistaar (breadth), Utsedha (height) and Parinaha (circumference) with the help of Swa-Anguli Pramana (measurement by own finger). In the ancient time length, breadth, and height of body’s parts measured by using the technique of Anguli Pramana in which measurements of parts of body have given in terms of Swa-Anguli. It can be the perfect parameter irrespective of age, sex, race and place etc. Principles of Ayurveda have given the individualistic approach rather than the generalized by providing the concept of Swa-Anguli Pramana. Acharyas said that before we start the treatment one should do the Ayu Pariksha (longativity of life) of that patient which is depends upon proper measurement of parts and sub parts of body along with Sara of body. Present study was taken to validate the Dalnhokta Anguli Pramana of Purusha Ura Vistaar (Male chest breadth) which was given as 24 Angula. The data of Purusha Ura Vistaar of 60 healthy volunteers was collected and statistically analyzed. As the very less work has been done the current study was conducted.

Deep Learning based Mango Leaf Disease Detection for Classifying and Evaluating Mango Leaf Diseases

Mango is one of the important commercial crop in the world. It provides nutritional and financial support to human life. Different diseases of leaves impact the health of the mango crops. The early and proper pest control measurement can prevent large output losses. We propose an automated inspection and classification of disease-affected mango leaves that uses Deep Learning (DL) model. Our DL model-empowered Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture is trained with an extensive image dataset of mango leaves portraying a variety of disease indications at both low and high-resolution images. The objective is to be able to identify accurately the disease type on mango leaves including Bacterial Canker, Powdery mildew, Anthracnose, Gall midge, and Sooty mould. Crops can develop gradual immunity with reasonable pest control and can purposively shaped them against constantly evolving environment. The proposed system will be effective and it will definitely prove a facile system to be used as a key component of a novel precision agriculture system as will be presented in our future work. The performance of the proposed system is augmented through the utilization of transfer learning techniques and pre-trained models, including VGG-16, MobileNet, Googlenet, YoloV8, and EfficientNet. These Deep Learning models not only offer an accurate and efficient approach for classifying diseases in mango leaves but also provide valuable insights into the severity of the identified diseases. Utilizing this information to support farmers and agricultural professionals in making informed decisions pertaining to disease management and treatment strategies can significantly contribute to the sustainable growth of mango crops. The development and implementation of such automated technologies have the potential to revolutionize the monitoring of mango crop health, enabling early disease detection and enhancing crop yields.
