Sansonetti, P. J. "Phagocytosis, a cell biology view." Journal of Cell Science 113, no. 19 (October 1, 2000): 3355–56. http://dx.doi.org/10.1242/jcs.113.19.3355.
Abstract:
Advances in Cell and Molecular Biology of Membranes and Organelles Volume 5 - Phagocytosis: the Host edited by Alan M. Tartakoff; volume editor, Siamon Gordon JAI Press Inc./Ablex Publishing Corp. (1999) pp. 521. ISBN 1–55938-999-0 $147.50 Over the last few years, cell biology has become a dominant approach in several disciplines of the life sciences, including the study of phagocytic cells! Before, with exceptions, the science of phagocytosis had often remained descriptive, with microbiologists providing detailed descriptions of the various types and stages of internalization and killing or survival of the pathogenic microorganisms, and immunologists providing an exhaustive description of the complex processes of microbe degradation, antigen processing and presentation following the phagocytic process per se. Phagocytosis: the Host excellently reflects the revolution that has occurred in this field. In other words, the science of phagocytosis is now dominated by an analytical approach based on deciphering the signals that carry out each of the critical steps of the process. Edited by a master of the discipline, in 21 chapters, this book - with great justice dedicated to the late Zanvil A. Cohn - covers the molecular and cellular aspects of phagocytic processes in a logical progression. The best specialists in the field have risen to the challenge. Four chapters are devoted to receptors, certainly representing one of the best and most exhaustive current reviews of this field. Of particular interest are the recent developments on scavenging receptors with regard to phagocytosis of both microbes and apoptotic bodies. In the next three chapters, signalling makes a spectacular entry: our knowledge of the molecular mechanisms that regulate the cytoskeleton is exponentially increasing and finds here its perfect niche. To this section might have been added the chapter entitled ‘The Phagocytic Actin Cytoskeleton’, which appears in the next section of four chapters devoted to ‘the pathway’, in other words, the maturation of phagosomes. Here again, progress has been tremendous in understanding the logics of maturation pathways and we are very much looking forward to the next volume Phagocytosis: the Microbes, which will show how these microbes can perturb, to their profit, phagosomal maturation in order to ‘carve’ a niche which permits their survival. A splendid example of coevolution. The last five chapters form a section (Responses) that encompasses most of the effector mechanisms that link the phagocytic event to the immune response, a domain that dictates the subtle transition between the innate and the adaptative immune response. The antimicrobial mechanisms of phagocytic cells are largely described here, including antimicrobial peptides, in often overlapping chapters. This does not matter at all because, again, the best specialists have gathered to produce a single chapter and the science presented is of the highest quality. So, altogether, this is a splendid contribution that will represent a keystone in the fast moving field of phagocytosis. If this reader had one criticism, it would be the illustrations. For a field that is extremely prone to rich illustrations, figures are generally scarce and grey, and the reproduction of the electron microscopy images is generally poor in definition, brightness and contrast. This should not deter anyone interested in the field from acquiring this volume and its brother volume on interactions with microbes. No doubt this, for the years to come, will be a reference text for phagocytosis. Microbiologists, immunologists and cell biologists, both students and senior scientists will find here updated information and all the relevant and most recent references (up to 2500).

Abstract:
This special issue of VIEW focuses on the international circulation and distribution of ready-made content, in the form of scripted products. The following essays share an interest in considering the nuances in power dynamics (adaptation, localization, revision) that are bound to any transnational movements. They also address a fruitful variety of problems and points of view that signal the wider potential of this field of research: the transnational circulation of TV content and the currently used market strategies; common ground and cultural proximity in certain cultural groups and/or regions; the role of European countries and markets in the development of international distributed content, and their impact beyond the continent; the emerging role of OTT services in the internationalization of programming; the growing role played by curation and personalization in order to gain a competitive edge; the functions of “niche” content (such as arts programming) and or particular audience groups (such as the LGBTQIA+ community and its allies), and how these adapt to border-crossings; co-productions, but also co-distributions between different countries (such as China and the UK); processes of localizing and adapting foreign ready-made content, for example through dubbing, subtitling and voice overs; and the role of bottom-up circulation.

Abstract:
Over the years, various chromatic adaptation transforms have been derived to fit the visual perception. However, some research demonstrated that CAT02, the most widely used chromatic adaptation transform, overestimates the degree of adaptation, especially for colored illumination. In this study, a memory color matching experiment was conducted in a real scene with the background adapting field varying in field of view, luminance and chromaticity. It showed that a larger field of view results in more complete adaptation. The results were used to test several existing chromatic adaptation models and to develop three new types of models. All of them improved the performance to some extent, especially for the illuminations with low CCT.

Ahmad, Ola, and Freddy Lecue. "FisheyeHDK: Hyperbolic Deformable Kernel Learning for Ultra-Wide Field-of-View Image Recognition." Proceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence 36, no. 6 (June 28, 2022): 5968–75. http://dx.doi.org/10.1609/aaai.v36i6.20542.
Abstract:
Conventional convolution neural networks (CNNs) trained on narrow Field-of-View (FoV) images are the state-of-the art approaches for object recognition tasks. Some methods proposed the adaptation of CNNs to ultra-wide FoV images by learning deformable kernels. However, they are limited by the Euclidean geometry and their accuracy degrades under strong distortions caused by fisheye projections. In this work, we demonstrate that learning the shape of convolution kernels in non-Euclidean spaces is better than existing deformable kernel methods. In particular, we propose a new approach that learns deformable kernel parameters (positions) in hyperbolic space. FisheyeHDK is a hybrid CNN architecture combining hyperbolic and Euclidean convolution layers for positions and features learning. First, we provide intuition of hyperbolic space for wide FoV images. Using synthetic distortion profiles, we demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach. We select two datasets - Cityscapes and BDD100K 2020 - of perspective images which we transform to fisheye equivalents at different scaling factors (analogue to focal lengths). Finally, we provide an experiment on data collected by a real fisheye camera. Validations and experiments show that our approach improves existing deformable kernel methods for CNN adaptation on fisheye images.

Abstract:
We present SliceView, a simple and inexpensive multi-view display made with multiple parallel translucent sheets that sit on top of a regular monitor; each sheet reflects different 2D images that are perceived cumulatively. A technical study is performed on the reflected and transmitted light for sheets of different thicknesses. A user study compares SliceView with a commercial light-field display (LookingGlass) regarding the perception of information at multiple depths. More importantly, we present automatic adaptations of existing content to SliceView: 2D layered graphics such as retro-games or painting tools, movies and subtitles, and regular 3D scenes with multiple clipping z-planes. We show that it is possible to create an inexpensive multi-view display and automatically adapt content for it; moreover, the depth perception on some tasks is superior to the one obtained in a commercial light-field display. We hope that this work stimulates more research and applications with multi-view displays.

AUSLOOS, MARCEL. "ANOTHER ANALYTIC VIEW ABOUT QUANTIFYING SOCIAL FORCES." Advances in Complex Systems 16, no. 01 (March 2013): 1250088. http://dx.doi.org/10.1142/s0219525912500889.
Abstract:
Montroll [Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA75 (1978) 4633–4637] had considered a Verhulst evolution approach for introducing a notion he called "social force", to describe a jump in some economic output when a new technology or product outcompetes a previous one. In fact, Montroll's adaptation of Verhulst equation is more like an economic field description than a "social force". The empirical Verhulst logistic function and the Gompertz double exponential law are used here in order to present an alternative view, within a similar mechanistic physics framework as done in [Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA75 (1978) 4633–4637]. As an example, a "social force" modifying the rate in the number of temples constructed by a religious movement, the Antoinist community, between 1910 and 1940 in Belgium is found and quantified. Practically, two temple inauguration regimes are seen to exist over different time spans, separated by a gap attributed to a specific "constraint", a taxation system, but allowing for a different, smooth, evolution rather than a jump. The impulse force duration is also emphasized as being better taken into account within the Gompertz framework. Moreover, a "social force" can be as here, attributed to a change in the limited need for capacity of some population, coupled to some external field, in either Verhulst or Gompertz equation, rather than resulting from already acquired but competing goods as in [Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA75 (1978) 4633–4637].

Abstract:
Visual fields and ommatidial angles of the compound eyes of Mantispa styriaca were determined using luminous pseudopupil and histological-anatomical techniques. The maximal horizontal overlap averaged 42.7° in femalesand 52.4° in males; females had only one overlap maximum, whereas males had two. In the dorsoventral direction, the binocular field had an overlap of 135.2° in the female and 142° in the male. In light-adapted eyes, optical acceptance angles reached values of 2.0°, and they reached 3.6° with dark adaptation; interommatidial angles were between 1.8° and 2.3°. The angles were very similar over the entire eye; no acute zone was found in the frontal part of the eye, as the large binocular overlap would suggest. The results are compared with those for the praying mantis: this animal is in no way related to Mantispa but resembles it in appearance and capture behaviour.

Abstract:
The Chengdu Plain is an agroecosystem that depends on the Dujiangyan (Capital River Weir) for its functioning. This system has been sustained at high levels of productivity for more than two thousand years, experiencing only a few disturbances that have disrupted its functioning. Integrating field and documentary research on ecological, market, and governance factors, this article discusses the remarkable resilience of this system from the late Qing to the present and identifies current threats to its resilience. When the ecology consists of patchy and diverse landscapes, markets allow for adaptation through exchange, and governance includes cross-cutting sources of authority and flexible property regimes, the ecosystem is more resilient—that is, better able to withstand disturbances and maintain its basic functions.

Fan, Xin, John J. Healy, Kevin O’Dwyer, Julianna Winnik, and Bryan M. Hennelly. "Adaptation of the Standard Off-Axis Digital Holographic Microscope to Achieve Variable Magnification." Photonics 8, no. 7 (July 7, 2021): 264. http://dx.doi.org/10.3390/photonics8070264.
Abstract:
Traditional microscopy provides only for a small set of magnifications using a finite set of microscope objectives. Here, a novel architecture is proposed for quantitative phase microscopy that requires only a simple adaptation of the traditional off-axis digital holographic microscope. The architecture has the key advantage of continuously variable magnification, resolution, and Field-of-View, by simply moving the sample. The method is based on combining the principles of traditional off-axis digital holographic microscopy and Gabor microscopy, which uses a diverging spherical wavefield for magnification. We present a proof-of-concept implementation and ray-tracing is used to model the magnification, Numerical Aperture, and Field-of-View as a function of sample position. Experimental results are presented using a micro-lens array and shortcomings of the method are highlighted for future work; in particular, the problem of aberration is highlighted, which results from imaging far from the focal plane of the infinity corrected microscope objective.

Kazakhstan journal for oil & gas industry 5, no. 2 (July 18, 2023): 81–90. http://dx.doi.org/10.54859/kjogi108602.
Abstract:
Background: One of the conditions for the effective development of oil and gas fields is reliable forecasting of its exploitation, including using the capabilities of modern software. As a result of many years of work, the first and only Kazakhstani import-substituting software product "Zhuldyz" was developed which helps to control the implementation of process solutions at the field.
Aim: Implement a single software platform covering the complete cycle of exploration and development of the fields.
Materials and methods: This paper presents the experience of using the Zhuldyz software at the Karatobe Yuzhnoye field, as well as software modules for optimizing modeling processes.
Results: Using software accounting a set of geological and physical results and the production history of the Karatobe Yuzhnoye deposit, data were obtained for constructing development maps, assessing reservoir connectivity and distribution of injected water, analyzing field performance for wells, selecting candidate wells for well interventions, as well as software modules for optimizing modeling processes. Additional opportunities for assessing and comparing field development indicators have also been identified.
Conclusion: Based on the results of the analysis carried out in the Zhuldyz software, solutions were developed to improve the reservoir pressure maintenance system at the Karatobe Yuzhnoye deposit. The selection of wells for well interventions and the calculation of efficiency were carried out, which will reduce the number of unsuccessful well interventions by increasing the quality of selected candidate wells through a new appraisal approach from a geological and technological point of view.

Abstract:
Organ-on-a-Chip (OoC) systems bring together cell biology, engineering, and material science for creating systems that recapitulate the in vivo microenvironment of tissues and organs. The versatility of OoC systems enables in vitro models for studying physiological processes, drug development, and testing in both academia and industry. This paper evaluates current platforms from the academic end-user perspective, elaborating on usability, complexity, and robustness. We surveyed 187 peers in 35 countries and grouped the responses according to preliminary knowledge and the source of the OoC systems that are used. The survey clearly shows that current commercial OoC platforms provide a substantial level of robustness and usability—which is also indicated by an increasing adaptation of the pharmaceutical industry—but a lack of complexity can challenge their use as a predictive platform. Self-made systems, on the other hand, are less robust and standardized but provide the opportunity to develop customized and more complex models, which are often needed for human disease modeling. This perspective serves as a guide for researchers in the OoC field and encourages the development of next-generation OoCs.

Abstract:
We, at present, are witnessing a severe and faster change in the field of intelligence than in any other period in the history of human evolution and it is most likely to evolve at the same pace or even much faster in the coming years. What was once considered ‘physical involvement of humans’ is becoming obsolete with technology advancement, global unexpected disasters like climate change, viral diseases and even political issues which in turn causing an unprecedented turmoil of larger magnitude as well as opportunity for both society and businesses alike. All these technology advancements need to be filtered down into a perfect system which leads to the evolution of new field called Hyperautomatin.This hyperautomation, still in its early stage of adaptation, impacts the lives of millions of ordinary people and businesses. This paper is about the impact of this technology and how it is impacting in varying scales.

Abstract:
E-learning experiments carried out in the field of training often prove disappointing. Therefore, adoption motives, the assessment of which is a growing concern for companies, have to be examined. Which learning methods encourage e-learning adoption? Can new technologies encourage organisational learning? From an epistemological point of view, these questions are in keeping with the social perspective which is developing in the field of information systems. The Grounded Theory is applied to interviews carried out with companies following an inductive approach. From a heuristic point of view, the framework of analysis identifies several learning methods which may be pragmatic, cognitive or operational. It appears that the e-learning experiments depend as much on their adaptation to the environment according to a strategic approach as on the social interactions with technology in managerial practices.

Abstract:
The field of neuroscience did not exist as such when the Journal of Dental Research was founded 100 y ago. It has emerged as an important scientific field relevant to dentistry in view of the many neurally based functions manifested in the orofacial area (e.g., pain, taste, chewing, swallowing, salivation). This article reviews many of the novel insights that have been gained through neuroscience research into the neural basis of these functions and their clinical relevance to the diagnosis and management of pain and sensorimotor disorders. These include the neural pathways and brain circuitry underlying each of these functions and the role of nonneural as well as neural processes and their “plasticity” in modulating these functions and allowing for adaptation to tissue injury and pain and for learning or rehabilitation of orofacial functions.

"Driving toward Connectivity: Vehicular Visible Light Communications Receiver with Adaptive Field of View for Enhanced Noise Resilience and Mobility." Sensors 24, no. 9 (April 28, 2024): 2814. http://dx.doi.org/10.3390/s24092814.
Abstract:
Wireless communication represents the basis for the next generation of vehicle safety systems, whereas visible light communication (VLC) is one of the most suitable technologies for this purpose. In this context, this work introduces a novel VLC receiver architecture that integrates a field-of-view (FoV) adaptation mechanism in accordance with the optical noise generated by the sun. In order to demonstrate the benefits of this concept, a VLC prototype was experimentally tested in an infrastructure-to-vehicle (I2V) VLC configuration, which uses an LED traffic light as the transmitter. At the receiver side, an automatic FoV adaptation mechanism was designed based on a mechanical iris placed in front of a photodetector. Adjustments were made based on the values recorded by a multi-angle light sensor, built with an array of IR photodiodes covering an elevation from 0° to 30° and an azimuth from −30° to 30°. Depending on the incidence of solar light, the mechanical iris can adjust the FoV from ±1° to ±22°, taking into account both the light irradiance and the sun’s position relative to the VLC receiver. For experimental testing, two identical VLC receivers were used: one with an automatic FoV adjustment, and the other with a ±22° fixed FoV. The test results performed at a distance of 50 m, in the presence of solar irradiance reaching up to 67,000 µW/cm2, showed that the receiver with a fixed FoV saturated and lost the communication link most of the time, whereas the receiver with an adjustable FoV maintained an active link throughout the entire period, with a bit error rate (BER) of less than 10−7.

Abstract:
The paper deals with the concept of localization and historical prerequisites of its use within the field of translation studies. We show that the sphere of localization techniques use is not limited by computer-mediated products but spreads on purely linguistic procedures of text adaptation as well. Since today there is no consensus among researchers and translators about the status of localization in the modern translation studies, we make an attempt to clarify the role and relevance of this term for the theory and practice of translation using the examples of fiction adaptation. The research is based on the material of a number of original and translated poetry works, including plays by W. Shakespeare and poems by Robert Burns, Ivan Krylov and Walter Scott. It is shown that the techniques of linguocultural adaptation used by translators in the 18th – 19th centuries are in fact those peculiar of the modern localization process. This fact proves the terminological value of the concept under study as the one denoting a certain type of translation activity which implies communicative equivalence and vague ties between the two texts. The considered examples of free translation of fiction prove that the process of localization is conditioned by literary and translational traditions, in particular, by the conception of free translation, which focused on the popularization of foreign works and a given ideological impact.

Abstract:
Environmental problems in the age we live in require us to think differently, to question them, and to do something corrective. The role of science education in the transformation of education and its adaptation to the age is perhaps more than in previous periods. Because at the end of the day is the continuity of our planet. This article examines science education and higher-order thinking skills in the Anthropocene era and presents examples from studies on environmental sustainability as a prominent concept in this field. In addition, it argues that STEAM education is one of the ideal approaches that can meet this goal by presenting examples of what can be done with a holistic and interdisciplinary view of environmental sustainability within the framework of STEAM education. Suggestions are made through STEAM training, with the assumption that environmental sustainability in an intricately connected network structure rather than linear chains can only be understood with an interdisciplinary approach and solutions can be found only in this way.

Abstract:
Abstract The aim of this research is to fill in the theoretical gaps regarding the typology of river parks, seen based on the shape and location of parks in relation to rivers, with a case study of parks on the island of Kalimantan. The typology of river parks will open new advanced research opportunities in the field of river park research. The method used is qualitative, with a field observation approach (primary) in twenty-seven parks on the river, field survey observations were carried out, and database (secondary) observations in fifteen parks on the river border were carried out through Google Street View “Big Data Base Analysis” (GSV). As a result, the typology of parks on rivers can be seen based on the shape and location of the park on the river, so that it is divided into three park typologies, namely the first typology of parks on rivers, the second typology of parks on riverbanks, and the third typology of parks bordering rivers. These three typologies are subdivided into eight form variants which are divided based on the potential point of view of the river, adaptation of the park design to the physical nature of the river, functional use of the banks and borders.

Abstract:
Research on the adaptation process of students from other regions aim to answer fundamental things related to the adaptation process of students from other regions who are studying at Binus University. Appropriate adaptation process can help create conducive environment to achieve good quality of learning (good quality of education). With good adaptability, students are expected to graduate well too. Becoming excellent graduates are the dream of every student, parents and university as well as community and country. Research of adaptation process of students from other regions who are studying at Binus University was conducted with descriptive qualitative methodology, the data obtained through in-depth interviews in the field and then were exposed to inductive analysis through the stages planned. To support the study, data collection is done in the following way: observation, survey, search and find key informants, and conducted in-depth interviews. Once the data is collected and analyzed then the next step is to generate data on the final results report. Students who come from other regions view that the process of adaptation is important and should be done. What is important and should be done in an adaptation process includes several things, such as the distance between students’ new area of domicile to campus, social culture in students’ place of origin to the students’ new area of domicile, and the situation of environmental conditions (society) of students’ place of origin to students’ new domicile as well as individual specific views (attitudes and behaviors ). Students from other regions adapt in a variety of ways, ranging from respecting new area of domicile custom, getting involved in students’ activities in campus and to comply with regulations. Adaptation also needs to be done to the entire academic community, including with other related environment. From the results of the study also showed that students who come from other regions view adaptation process is associated with learning outcomes at the university.

Abstract:
Purpose – This article aims to describe the development of industrialised house-building (IHB) to increase the understanding of the field. Design/methodology/approach – The study is based on an extensive literature study and a case study with three companies, studied between 2005 and 2013 which enabled an in-depth knowledge about the companies’ development within IHB. Interviews, observations and document studies are the main sources of information in the case studies. Findings – IHB is a complex field, consisting of several constructs that need to be integrated and continuously developed. Development of structured technical building systems has been central to the development of IHB along with developed production methods and processes. The interest in organisational fit or adaptation to industrialisation and strategy concerning business, production and products is increasing. This implies that IHB needs to be managed strategically and not on a building project level. Practical implications – The article gives an orientation on how leading companies have structured and organised their work within industrialisation, giving valuable advice to practitioners with interest in the field. Originality/value – This article describes the development of IHB based on studies of literature and three Swedish IHB companies’ development. This provides an aggregated view of the field’s emergence and unique information about the studied companies’ development.

Abstract:
The paper proposes electromagnetic field equations from the point of view of their adaptation to numerical methods. Maxwell's equations with partial derivatives are used, written concerning field vectors, which most fully reproduce the picture of physical processes in electrical engineering devices. The values of these vectors provide comprehensive information about the field at any spatio-temporal point. The concept of creating mathematical models of electrical devices adequate to physical processes has been developed. Mathematical transformations are carried out according to the rules of differential calculus. Dynamic processes in the elements of electrotechnical devices were analyzed using the apparatus of mathematical modeling. An algorithm for implementing differential equations with partial derivative numerical methods using computer simulation was implemented. The obtained results made it possible to understand the nature of electromagnetic phenomena in nonlinear media. The paper provides calculations of the field parameters in a flat ferromagnetic plate and the groove of the rotor of an electric machine.

Abstract:
Аннотация: современные исследования в области стратегического управления в качестве наиболее перспективного взгляда на процесс обеспечения конкурентоспособности определяют ресурсный и динамический подходы. Первый предполагает выстраивание стратегий вокруг уникальных ресурсов и трудноимитируемых организационных процессов, а второй делает акцент на необходимости обеспечения итеративного анализа и динамического обновления ранее сформированных стратегических планов. Если в проблематике исследований стратегического менеджмента такие подходы являются достаточно понятными, то в области стратегического маркетинга они могут требовать более глубокой адаптации. В настоящей статье рассматривается подход к разработке инструментальной маркетинговой стратегии на основе типовых ресурсов и динамических способностей организации. Автором приводятся различные группы маркетинговых ресурсов с иллюстрацией их возможного использования в практике. Итогом статьи становится формулирование перечня возможных маркетинговых ресурсов и динамических способностей в логике маркетинг-микса на примере организаций, работающих в сфере предоставления образовательных услуг. Такой взгляд способствует более эффективной интеграции ресурсной теории управления в проблематику стратегического маркетинга и может выступить подходом к выстраиванию стратегии развития конкурентоспособности на основе маркетинговых ресурсов. Abstract: modern research in the field of strategic management defines the resource and dynamic approaches as the most promising view of the process of ensuring competitiveness. The first is to build strategies around unique resources and hard-to-imitate organizational processes. The second approach emphasizes the need to provide iterative analysis and dynamic updating of previously formed strategic plans. If in the area of strategic management research such approaches are quite understandable, then in the field of strategic marketing they may require deeper adaptation. This article discusses an approach to developing an instrumental marketing strategy based on the typical resources and dynamic capabilities of an organization. The author provides various groups of marketing resources with an illustration of their possible use in practice. The result of the article is the formulation of a list of possible marketing resources and dynamic capabilities in the logic of the marketing mix using the example of organizations providing educational services. This view contributes to a more effective integration of resource management theory into the problems of strategic marketing and can act as an approach to building a strategy for developing competitiveness based on marketing resources.

Abstract:
This article defines the interaction of external (objective) and internal (subjective) factors that affect the process of professional adaptation of students of the economic profile from the perspective of the analysis of psychological and pedagogical literature. Among the first are the level of development of society, its socio-economic needs, as well as, of course, the established system of professional education, its content, methods, and forms of organization of the educational process. Analyzing subjective factors, first of all we have in mind the mental characteristics of the personality of the future specialist-economist.
Three main scales for the classification of motives have been distinguished: awareness – unawareness; congenital – acquired; qualitative characteristics of motives. The block of the structure of professional motives has been described: motives for understanding the goals of the profession; motives of professional activity, which in turn combine activity-processual and activity-resultative motives; motives of professional communication (prestige of the profession in society, social cooperation and interpersonal communication in the profession); motives for the manifestation of personality in the profession, including both the development and self-realization of the personality in the profession, and the development of individuality in the profession.
The requirements from the point of view of ensuring professional adaptation have been considered: fundamentalization, which is the most important condition for the formation of a comprehensively developed professionally adapted specialist; humanitarianization of the content of education, which is expressed in the search for new approaches to teaching social and humanitarian disciplines in higher education; the ability of the content of education and the technology of education to ensure high professional readiness of a specialist in accordance with the level and profile of education; integration of the content of higher and secondary professional education; personal and individual-psychological focus of professional education.
Approaches to increase the level of professional adaptability have been proposed: adaptive; operational and problematic (project).

Abstract:
This paper examines the use of Japanese scripts on fashion items. The use of English on fashion items (e.g. t-shirts) has been observed across the globe and examined in the field of sociolinguistics. In recent years, fashion brands such as Gucci, Coach, Adidas, and Nike have printed Japanese scripts on their clothes alongside their original brand names. A UK fashion brand, Superdry, employ Japanese in their brand name and logos. However, the use of languages other than English has not yet been analysed in the fields of sociolinguistics or fashion. The adoption of different cultural norms is often discussed as a form of cultural appropriation. This paper challenges that view by comparing the use of English and Japanese as well as by discussing possible explanations and the roles of Japanese scripts in fashion. It emerges that Japanese scripts are used due to the symbolic, cultural, and linguistic capital that they hold, as well as with a view to enabling brands to express uniqueness. The paper argues that printing Japanese scripts on fashion items is not a simple representation of Japonisme, but rather a form of cultural and linguistic appreciation. It also asserts that the New Orientalism that has been observed in the adaptation of Japanese scripts to fashion has no connotation of otherness. Instead, it represents an active acceptance of the East and the generation of new cultures. Transcultural flows are observed in the field of fashion in the era of globalisation. This paper presents a new perspective on studies on Orientalism and the use of languages and scripts.

Abstract:
Motion aftereffect (MAE) is a negative aftereffect caused by prolonged viewing of visual motion: after gazing at a moving grating for a while, a stationary image will appear to move in the opposite direction (Ashida and Osaka, 1995 Vision Research35 1825). Evoked magnetic field (magnetoencephalogram: MEG) was measured when a human subject observing ring MAE in which concentric circles appear to contract continuously after viewing continuously expanding rings. The diameter of the stimulus was 20 deg with fixation point in the centre. The magnetic evoked field (80 averagings at a latency of 190 ms) was measured from 37 points over the occipital and parietal areas (Magnes SQUID biomagnetometer, BTi) while the subject was observing stationary rings after an adaptation period of 2 s at low spatial frequency (4 cycles deg−1, 4 Hz). The luminance profile was sinusoidally changed across rings. MRI image fitting (sagittal, coronal, and axial view) for each of four subjects, and dipole estimates obtained for equal magnetic field contours (with value of goodness of fit greater than 0.98) from the right brain hemisphere suggest that the main loci subserving MAE lie in the surrounding region over the lateral occipitotemporal areas in the human brain, close to area MT. This is in good agreement with another study with fMRI-based MAE measures [Tootell et al, 1995 Nature (London)375 139] in which a clear increase in activity in these areas was observed when subjects viewed MAE.

Abstract:
Adaptation, the prolonged presentation of stimuli, has been used to probe mechanisms of visual processing in physiological, imaging, and perceptual studies. Previous neurophysiological studies have measured adaptation effects by using stimuli tailored to evoke robust responses in individual neurons. This approach provides an incomplete view of how an adapter alters the representation of sensory stimuli by a population of neurons with diverse functional properties. We implanted microelectrode arrays in primary visual cortex (V1) of macaque monkeys and measured orientation tuning and contrast sensitivity in populations of neurons before and after prolonged adaptation. Whereas previous studies in V1 have reported that adaptation causes stimulus-specific suppression of responsivity and repulsive shifts in tuning preference, we have found that adaptation can also lead to response facilitation and shifts in tuning toward the adapter. To explain this range of effects, we have proposed and tested a simple model that employs stimulus-specific suppression in both the receptive field and the spatial surround. The predicted effects on tuning depend on the relative drive provided by the adapter to these two receptive field components. Our data reveal that adaptation can have a much richer repertoire of effects on neuronal responsivity and tuning than previously considered and suggest an intimate mechanistic relationship between spatial and temporal contextual effects.

Abstract:
The article analyzes the problem of the lack of qualified personnel in the labor market and its impact on the personnel adaptation system. As part of the study, an analysis of the current situation in the labor market, an analysis of the practices of companies in the field of recruitment and selection of personnel, the views of modern business leaders were carried out, and the need for changes in the system of personnel adaptation of Russian organizations was substantiated. The situation of labor shortage that has developed over the past few years has led to changes in the main strategies in the personnel management system, primarily related to the easing of requirements for qualifications, soft skills, age, gender and other characteristics of personnel. This, in turn, required changes in the adaptation system, revision of strategy and the introduction of more complex and modern technologies. From the authors’ point of view, the emphasis from socio-psychological adaptation should be shifted to professional and organizational adaptation, technologies should be refocused on individualizing adaptation programs based on the introduction of digital systems, the use of interactive teaching methods, intensifying the use of the capabilities of self-learning organizations, expanding the scope of adaptation through training of freelancers, free labor on the labor market. Thus, the main results of the situation analysis indicate the need for an integrated approach to adaptation, including changing strategy, using modern technologies and creating conditions for professional growth, taking into account the individual characteristics of personnel.

ISPRS - International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences XLII-3 (April 30, 2018): 2135–40. http://dx.doi.org/10.5194/isprs-archives-xlii-3-2135-2018.
Abstract:
This paper describes on understanding the regional effects on global climate change and subsistence farmers’ coping strategies through our field investigation and multidimensional data analysis from the resilience point of view. The major research question of this study is to understand what actions villagers took as the coping strategy against the heavy rainfall shock caused by climate change. Our research interest is how geospatial information technique can contribute to this research question. The study area is located in Sinazongwe district, Southern province of Zambia. As for the field investigation, we set the study sites A, B and C where are located in the lower terrace, middle escarpment and upper terrace, respectively. In the rainy season of 2007/2008, our study site had a heavy rainfall and many crop fields were damaged. In this crop year, the annual rainfalls in site A and C were 1442 mm/year and 1332 mm/year respectively. This is about two times different with the long term average of rainfall 694.9 mm/year in Sinazongwe district. It is confirmed that approximately 20 % of crop fields were damaged by heavy rainfall through our field investigation. It was so severe negative consequences for all of villages because about 80 % of whole damaged crop fields were maize fields. Maize is staple food in this region. Here, we have analysed and discussed how villagers cope from the serious damage of crops. The maize harvest varies every year depending on rainfall and topographic position. If a farmer possesses maize fields at various topographic positions, they can avoid severe negative consequences of climate variability such as drought or heavy rainfall. However, not all farmers have access to fields at various topographic positions. It is important to know where each household’s characteristics when we consider their strategy of livelihood for climate variabilities. Through this study, we confirmed the way to strengthen resilience of subsistence farmers as follows: it is necessary to prepare variable crops and emergency food stock with not only diverse but also composite social institution. The resilient society seems to be the society with insurance such as adaptation ability against environmental shock caused by climate change. From the agricultural production point of view, both diversity and yield ability are also important.

Abstract:
Internationally, social well-being is the foundation of a democratic and socially just society. In September 2015, as part of the 70th session of the UN General Assembly, the UN Summit on Sustainable Development took place in New York, where the document «Transforming Our World: The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development» was approved, which includes 17 Sustainable Development Goals and 169 tasks. The Sustainable Development Goals envision a non-discriminatory, equal and inclusive society. Ukraine has joined the «global process of ensuring sustainable development». Domestic legislation defines social services that help to overcome these problems and create a socially comfortable society for all categories of the population. Social services include social rehabilitation, social adaptation and social integration, which are aimed at creating a socially prosperous society. That is why the purpose of the article is to reveal the essence of these concepts and to establish the relationship between these key concepts. To achieve this goal, the author used the theoretical method of analysis and synthesis of scientific literature and the legal framework with a view to structuring and generalizing them. The interdependence of social rehabilitation, social adaptation and social integration is monitored at the legislative level. In addition, domestic researchers also see the interconnection between these services, which aim to help individuals establish relationships with the social environment. All the services are aimed at the social inclusion of individuals in the life of society, their active participation in family and domestic, socio-cultural, public, educational and professional spheres.

Abstract:
Abstract. Introduction. The penetration of new technologies into our lives has fundamentally changed the very values of marketing, making the aspect of safety and care for the client's health a priority, and not just obtaining commercial profit. In addition, the onset of the crisis showed for all market players how important it is to develop their adaptive capabilities and be ready for new challenges in the future. Purpose. The purpose of the article is to reveal the essence of trends in marketing activity; determination of marketing trends in 2020-2023. Results. The article attempts to understand and formulate the processes taking place today in the market of marketing communications: changes in the needs, habits and other characteristics of consumers, new ways of winning their loyalty and competitive features, strengthening the role of socially responsible behavior of companies and brands, active development of educational communications, etc. The problem of changing marketing communications and trends in 2023 towards wider use of Internet communications and digital technologies is formulated. The purpose of the study is to present an overview of trends in the development of marketing communications in 2020-2023. The need to develop methods for evaluating new instruments is considered, creating a platform for future research. Conclusions. Among the limitations, one can single out dynamic changes in marketing communications, which makes it difficult to track current trends and complicate their integration into the marketing activities of companies. Moreover, the narrowness of the development of trends does not allow finding new personnel and methods of quick adaptation to changes. The coronavirus pandemic at the beginning of 2020 changed the entire model of the usual world. Previous marketing strategies, including on the Internet, will now also be effective. Many brands have significantly changed their approaches to marketing in general, and new trends have emerged in the field of digital communications. The digital environment lives by its own laws, it changes and formats our reality. To gain a competitive advantage in this environment, you need to learn to constantly adapt to it. Prospective areas of research will create a basis for evaluating new marketing trends.

Abstract:
Abstract Rice (Oryza sativa) was domesticated around 10,000 years ago and has developed into a staple for half of humanity. The crop evolved and is currently grown in stably wet and intermittently dry agro-ecosystems, but patterns of adaptation to differences in water availability remain poorly understood. While previous field studies have evaluated plant developmental adaptations to water deficit, adaptive variation in functional and hydraulic components, particularly in relation to gene expression, has received less attention. Here, we take an evolutionary systems biology approach to characterize adaptive drought resistance traits across roots and shoots. We find that rice harbors heritable variation in molecular, physiological, and morphological traits that is linked to higher fitness under drought. We identify modules of co-expressed genes that are associated with adaptive drought avoidance and tolerance mechanisms. These expression modules showed evidence of polygenic adaptation in rice subgroups harboring accessions that evolved in drought-prone agro-ecosystems. Fitness-linked expression patterns allowed us to identify the drought-adaptive nature of optimizing photosynthesis and interactions with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. Taken together, our study provides an unprecedented, integrative view of rice adaptation to water-limited field conditions.

Abstract:
Exposure to daylight significantly affects the psychological well-being of occupants by diminishing headaches, eye tensions, or stress. Daylight penetration is a matter of collaboration between building façade and perimeter zones that can be controlled through façade design features. This study reviews available daylighting systems to block or redirect natural light inside the space and their overall performance. Adaptation found to be the main key feature of daylighting systems to improve their effectiveness in indoor environments. As the main implication of such systems on the visual comfort performance of occupants, a list of quantitative indices is studied based on their mathematical equation to outline their advantages and limitations. Findings revealed a lack of agreement on acceptable indoor illuminance thresholds for most of the indices and the absence of a reliable glare index in presence of sun within the view field of the occupant. Similarly, many green building certifications propose a specific criterion to assess view out but remained a challenge for future studies.

Current trends in the field of manufacturing systems are mostly connected to the transfer of technical solutions specific to large manufacturing series toward small and medium manufacturing series. Our researches presented in this paper study thoroughly and expand the concept of modularization of multi-tool processing devices in order to obtain a high level of productivity and flexibility of the technological system, as well as a significant decrease of the adaptation costs. To this end, we elaborated and used computing methods, mathematical models, optimizing algorithms and original constructive solutions to develop new modular structures meant to optimize the construction and configuration of adjustable multi-spindle ends. We obtained the highest level of modularization for this type of equipment which integrates from the point of view of organs and is functional from the point of view of performance, highly efficient, in a flexible complex multi-tool system of simultaneous-successive and multi-directional processing.

Abstract:
In this paper, we consider an intrinsic point of view to describe the equations of motion for higher-order variational problems with constraints on higher-order trivial principal bundles. Our techniques are an adaptation of the classical Skinner–Rusk approach for the case of Lagrangian dynamics with higher-order constraints. We study a regular case where it is possible to establish a symplectic framework and, as a consequence, to obtain a unique vector field determining the dynamics. As an interesting application we deduce the equations of motion for optimal control of underactuated mechanical systems defined on principal bundles.

Abstract:
Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) is used as a noninvasive tool for cognitive enhancement and clinical applications. The physiological effects of tACS, however, are complex and poorly understood. Most studies of tACS focus on its ability to entrain brain oscillations, but our behavioral results in humans and extracellular recordings in nonhuman primates support the view that tACS at 10 Hz also affects brain function by reducing sensory adaptation. Our primary goal in the present study is to test this hypothesis using blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) imaging in human subjects. Using concurrent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and tACS, and a motion adaptation paradigm developed to quantify BOLD adaptation, we show that tACS significantly attenuates adaptation in the human motion area (hMT+). In addition, an exploratory analysis shows that tACS increases functional connectivity of the stimulated hMT+ with the rest of the brain and the dorsal attention network in particular. Based on field estimates from individualized head models, we relate these changes to the strength of tACS-induced electric fields. Specifically, we report that functional connectivity (between hMT+ and any other region of interest) increases in proportion to the field strength in the region of interest. These findings add support for the claim that weak 10-Hz currents applied to the scalp modulate both local and global measures of brain activity. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Concurrent transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) and functional MRI show that tACS affects the human brain by attenuating adaptation and increasing functional connectivity in a dose-dependent manner. This work is important for our basic understanding of what tACS does, but also for therapeutic applications, which need insight into the full range of ways in which tACS affects the brain.

Abstract:
Darwin insisted that evolutionary change occurs very slowly over long periods of time, and this gradualist view was accepted by his supporters and incorporated into the infinitesimal model of quantitative genetics developed by R. A. Fisher and others. It dominated the first century of evolutionary biology, but has been challenged in more recent years both by field surveys demonstrating strong selection in natural populations and by quantitative trait loci and genomic studies, indicating that adaptation is often attributable to mutations in a few genes. The prevalence of strong selection seems inconsistent, however, with the high heritability often observed in natural populations, and with the claim that the amount of morphological change in contemporary and fossil lineages is independent of elapsed time. I argue that these discrepancies are resolved by realistic accounts of environmental and evolutionary changes. First, the physical and biotic environment varies on all time-scales, leading to an indefinite increase in environmental variance over time. Secondly, the intensity and direction of natural selection are also likely to fluctuate over time, leading to an indefinite increase in phenotypic variance in any given evolving lineage. Finally, detailed long-term studies of selection in natural populations demonstrate that selection often changes in direction. I conclude that the traditional gradualist scheme of weak selection acting on polygenic variation should be supplemented by the view that adaptation is often based on oligogenic variation exposed to commonplace, strong, fluctuating natural selection.

Abstract:
The elongated eye of Vitreledonella richardi is described from two specimens caught at 200 m in the North Atlantic. It is shown that the cylindrical shape, with the lens placed centrally, results in a reduced field of view in the horizontal plane. It is argued that the unusual shape is an adaptation which minimises the silhouette of the eye as seen from below, and is part of the animal's camouflage strategy.IntroductionThe majority of fish and cephalopods have two hemispherical eyes, each of which has a field covering roughly the 180° on one side of the animal (Walls, 1942; Packard, 1972). The commonest exceptions to this rule are animals with so-called ‘telescopic’ eyes, found in many species of deepsea fish (e.g. Benthalbella, Argyropelecus, Opisthoproctus, Scopelarchus, see Marshall, 1954; Locket, 1977) and some cephalopods (Amphitretus, see Chun, 1915; Histioteuthis sp., see Young, 1975a). These eyes are tubular, with the lens at the open end of the tube, and a retina with a reduced field of view at the other. The eyes usually point upwards, and it is generally agreed that their shape is determined by the need to concentrate sensitivity and resolution into the rather narrow field above the animal where the residual daylight is still adequate for visual detection. It is 200 times darker in the downward direction (Denton, 1990), and so there must be some depth at which upward vision works, but downward vision does not. These are not the only kind of tubular eyes, however. In some cephalopods, but not to my knowledge in any fish, there are eyes of tubular appearance but with the lens not at the end, but in the centre of the tube (Figure 1).

Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this special issue s to cover a substantial range of approach to knowledge management penetrating inquiry that goes beyond intra-organizational learning processes to include inter-organizational perspectives. Design/methodology/approach – As pointed out by the literature on various aspects of the knowledge processes within and between organizations, the work has been organized coherently with two “strains” of topics: the first one focused on managerial practices and operative directions of knowledge management, the other one pointed out on applications of knowledge management to inter-firm networks. Qualitative as well quantitative papers have been welcomed. Findings – Opening up the idea of pluralism as a driving force in the knowledge economy pushes the organizations in a permanent cumulative process of adaptation and re-creation through innovative means of social interaction in global environments. Research limitations/implications – The dynamic nature of the field is reflected in the fact that this project expanded to encompass emerging works on knowledge models and concepts that grew from conversations within the network. Originality/value – This special issue aims to extend the current understanding on how diversity of approaches enhances the process of discovery: the authors convey the sense of where the stimulating challenges lie.
