Modeling Influenced Criteria In Classifiers' Imbalanced Challenges Based On Trss Bolstered By The Vague Nature Of Neutrosophic Theory, Ibrahim El-Henawy, Shrouk El-Amir, Mona Mohamed, Florentin Smarandache

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

Because of the advancements in technology, classification learning has become an essential activity in today's environment. Unfortunately, through the classification process, we noticed that the classifiers are unable to deal with the imbalanced data, which indicates there are many more instances (majority instances) in one class than in another. Identifying an appropriate classifier among the various candidates is a time-consuming and complex effort. Improper selection can hinder the classification model's ability to provide the right outcomes. Also, this operation requires preference among a set of alternatives by a set of criteria. Hence, multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) methodology is the appropriate …

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

In this manuscript, we give the generalization of banach’s, Kannan’s and Chatterjee’s fixed Point theorems in neutrosophic metric spaces by using new (TS-IF⍺) contractive mappings. Also, we establish common fixed point results in neutrosophic metric space by using Occasionally weakly compatible maps for integral type inequalities.

Exploring Neutrosophic Numeral System Algorithms For Handling Uncertainty And Ambiguity In Numerical Data: An Overview And Future Directions, A. A. Salama, Mahmoud Y. Shams, Sherif Elseuofi, Huda E. Khalid

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

The Neutrosophic Numeral System Algorithms are a set of techniques designed to handle uncertainty and ambiguity in numerical data. These algorithms use Neutrosophic Set Theory, a mathematical framework that deals with incomplete, indeterminate, and inconsistent information. In this paper, we provide an overview of different approaches used in Neutrosophic Numeral System Algorithms, including Neutrosophic Binary System, Neutrosophic Decimal System, and Neutrosophic Octal System. These systems use different bases and representations to account for degrees of truth, indeterminacy, and falsity in numerical data. We also explore the relationship between Neutrosophic Numeral System Algorithms and Number Neutrosophic Systems, which are another type …

Santos-Medina, Pam Factor-Litvak, Tariqul Islam, Mahbubul Eunus, Mizanour Rahman, Mohammad Nasir Uddin, Ke Jian Liu, Faruque Parvez

Pathology Research and Scholarship

Chronic arsenic exposures are associated with multiple hematologic disturbances, including anemia. The goal of this study was to evaluate associations between arsenic exposures and hematological parameters among men and women who are chronically exposed to elevated levels of arsenic from drinking water. Hematologic analyses were performed on blood collected from 755 participants (45% male and 54% female) in the Health Effects of Arsenic Longitudinal Study (HEALS) cohort, Bangladesh. Herein, we used linear regression models to estimate associations between red blood cell (RBC) parameters (i.e., RBC counts, hematocrit (HCT), hemoglobin (Hgb), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), and mean …

The Effects Of Moderate Prenatal Alcohol Exposure On Navigation In A Delayed Non- Match-To-Place Spatial Alternation Task By Adult Male And Female Rats, Gabriela Acosta

Psychology ETDs

Prenatal alcohol exposure has been found to alter brain regions involved in spatial memory. Previous studies have shown that moderate PAE (mPAE; ~30-120 mg/dL) impairs spatial memory in male rats and damages the limbic-thalamus and hippocampus. Recent work has shown that visual discrimination memory is impaired after mPAE in a sex-specific manner such that female mice exhibit greater deficits after 15sec delay. It is unclear whether similar-sex-specific deficits would be observed in a spatial memory task or in a rat model of mPAE. Thus, the present study tests the hypothesis that mPAE would produce sex-specific deficits in a delayed non-match-to-place …

Accelerated Intermittent Theta Burst Stimulation Modulates Microglial Activation In The Thalamus: Preliminary Data, Karen Luo, Binh Nguyen, Sarah Ward, Tessa Olmstead, Hans Van Der Horn, Christopher Abbott, Andrei Vakhtin, Davin K. Quinn

Brain & Behavioral Health Research Day

Late-life depression (LLD) is associated with elevated inflammatory markers, suggesting a possible mechanistic role and targets for treatment. We recruited 10 patients with late-life depression to receive 45 treatments of iTBS. Each participant underwent diffusion magnetic resonance spectroscopy (dMRS), an experimental sequence that detects changes in microglial activation. Preliminary results showed that iTBS may modulate inflammation through change of microglia conformation in the thalamus. Further work is needed to confirm findings.

Rethinking Rights In A Disappearing Penumbra: How To Expand Upon Reproductive Rights In Court After Dobbs, Joshua J. Schroeder

New Mexico Law Review

In 2022, Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Org. overruled Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey. The Dobbs Court suggested that future cases should similarly overrule other judicially protected rights including the right to marry interracially, to access contraceptives, and to have sex the way you like. The novel grounds Dobbs used to overrule Roe and Casey that might spread to other pro-rights case law was an ad hoc Janus v. AFSCME cost-benefit balancing test. Prior to Dobbs, the liberal wing of the U.S. Supreme Court believed that the Court could use cost-benefit balancing tests to safeguard certain judicially …

A Return To Rationality: Restoring The Rule Of Law After Daubert's Disastrous U-Turn, Andrew Jurs, Scott Devito

New Mexico Law Review

Consistency and rationality are central to the legitimacy of the modern court system. Considerable recent attention has been focused on the Court’s overturning of established precedent on abortion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization. Yet, as we empirically demonstrate, the courts, through the decisions of individual judges over thirty years, have reversed the meaning of the Daubert standard for admission of scientific evidence, thereby threatening the legitimacy of the very heart of the civil justice system. In the initial years after the Daubert decision, litigants saw its reliability standard as a stricter standard than the previously used Frye “general …

The Historical Development Of The Concept Of Forced Labor And The Open Boundaries Of Its Definition Today, Christopher M. Roberts

New Mexico Law Review

This article considers the steps taken on the international level in the 1920s and 30s to define the terms through which freedom and unfreedom in the context of labor might be understood, the manner in which understandings of forced labor have subsequently evolved, and the parameters and potentials of the concept today. The first section explores the history of the 1926 Slavery Convention; the nature of coercive labor in colonized states in the inter-war period; the drafting processes and coverage of the 1930 Forced Labour Convention; the Convention’s accompanying recommendations; and subsequent developments in the legal definition of forced labor. …

Don't Swab Me!: Limitations Of The Genetic Information Privacy Act In The Modern Genetic Testing Landscape, Ibrahim Al-Gahmi

New Mexico Law Review

In an age where consumers can easily obtain genetic tests by simply sending a saliva or cheek swab sample through the mail and learn more than ever about their DNA and its genetic makeup, it is imperative that measures are established to provide consumers with both control and protection to the privacy of their submitted biological sample and analyzed genetic data. Currently, the landscape of genetic testing, and the resulting genetic information, is regulated by one law in New Mexico. The Genetic Information Privacy Act (NM-GIPA or Act), enacted in 1998, provides general prohibitions on the collection of genetic information …

A Primary Purpose Problem: State V. Tsosie, Lana Elledge

New Mexico Law Review

In Crawford v. Washington, the United States Supreme Court held that if statements “were made under circumstances which would lead an objective witness reasonably to believe that the statements would be available for use at a later trial,” then a defendant has the right to confront and cross examine the witness. However, the Court’s subsequent retreat from this ruling and introduction of the primary purpose test in a later decision, created a flawed federal analysis, as seen in State v. Tsosie. In Tsosie, the New Mexico Supreme Court applied the primary purpose test to determine whether statements of the declarant, …

The Myth Of Anonymity: De-Identified Data As Legal Fiction, Elodie Currier Stoffel

New Mexico Law Review

The unregulated collection, processing, and sale of consumer data has led to a plethora of social and legal issues. As regulators attempt to catch up with the “move fast and break things” ethos of tech innovation, “de-identified” or “anonymized” data has remained broadly unprotected. However, computer science literature shows us that “de-identified” data is a legal fiction. This Article examines the source of the de-identification fiction, analyzes the definitions in new state laws which attempt to close the loophole, tracks potential harms, and proposes a legislative solution which aims to ameliorate some of the legal fictions’ negative impacts. Part I …

Rule 11 Sanctions For Bad Discovery Advocacies, Jeffrey A. Parness, Alexandria N. Short

New Mexico Law Review

For over eighty years, Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure has authorized sanctions to combat frivolous legal arguments and factual allegations in some paper presentations. Since 1993, however, the rule has not applied to discovery. This article demonstrates how Rule 11 should be used to deter advocacy based on discovery that has “gone bad” since its initial disclosure. Disciplinary actions, malpractice claims, the discovery rules, and even the inherent sanctioning authority of the court are insufficient to deter lawyers from relying on now-bad discovery papers. Rule 11 would hold lawyers to a duty of reasonable inquiry before …

The Water Under The Bridge Is Darkening—An Analysis Of Copyright Law And The Prevalence Of Copyright Trolls, Daniel Berenger-Russell

New Mexico Law Review

In this time of modern technology and booming social media, the growth in intellectual property protection is no surprise. It logically follows that with more robust intellectual property protection there exists a greater chance of infringement. The likelihood of innocently infringing on a person’s registered copyright is at an all-time high. Due to the increased likelihood of innocent infringement, “copyright trolls” have emerged and developed unethical business tactics to prey off “innocent infringement.” Just like fairytale trolls who hide under bridges hoping to pester bystanders, copyright trolls also seek to burden peoples’ days. Not only do copyright trolls prey off …
