The Commons Before “The Commons”; Decolonial Perspectives On Journalism Through "Soenting Melajoe" (1912-1921), Tito Ambyo, Bronwyn Anne Beech Jones

Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia

Through an exploration of the Malay-language women’s weekly Soenting Melajoe (1912-1921), this article proposes “taman” (garden) as an alternative model of journalistic practice and community formation in colonial Indonesia. Countering historiographies that position professional journalism as the telos for media development in the modern world, we argue that Soenting Melajoe draws attention to a form of commoning that preceded and resisted colonial enclosure and Western journalistic frameworks. Through analysing reader contributions and editorial practices, we show how the publication’s writers conceptualized their work as cultivating a taman – a space open to collective participation yet bounded by shared values, …

"Commoning" The Artist-Led Archive; Sharing Heri Dono’S Private Archive With A Public Audience, Eliza O’Donnell, Agni Saraswati

Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia

Built from the ground-up and with no formal government support, artist-led archives in Indonesia engage in commoning practices by creating community-centred platforms for knowledge sharing, in both physical and digital spaces. This article examines “acts of commoning” through the lens of artist Heri Dono at Studio Kalahan in Yogyakarta, an artist-led archive that challenges institutional approaches by treating Dono’s practice-based knowledge as shared creative resources, rather than private intellectual property. Three “acts of commoning” are explored through an iterative process of 1) building, 2) reproduction and digitization, and 3) sharing through exhibition and Instagram. It is argued that commoning of …

Beyond Creative Tourism Cities; Youth Media Commoning In Urban Indonesia, Amalia N. Andini, Mely Noviryani, Andhika Krisnaloka, Anton Novenanto

Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia

How do young people make sense of themselves through the stories they tell about their lives in cities? In this article, we examine youth media-making in Malang and Batu, Indonesia, as a meaningful practice of commoning that engages with the construction of youth and the city under the neoliberal logic of urban development in Southeast Asia. Our Participatory Action Research (PAR) with young people in local neighbourhoods has produced a series of documentary films and an anthology, co-authored to narrate their lived urban experiences and interactions with tourism. By telling their own stories from kampung wisata (tourism neighbourhoods), they …

Sacred Commoning In Indonesia; Faith, Media, And Affective Praxis For Environmental Justice, Najwa A. Nadia

Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia

This article analyses how commoning practices are mobilized to address ecological problems in Indonesia and highlights the contributions of youth and faith-based initiatives in the process, focusing on their inventive use of media, cultural, and religious forms. Based on two case studies of a community-run festival in Yogyakarta and a waqf forest project in Bogor, it traces how environmental activism becomes a vigorous arena for intersectoral collaboration, new communal imaginaries, and affective and spiritual reorientations. Situating them in the broader literatures on commoning, affect, media, and religion, the article proposes the idea of sacred commoning to describe the affective processes …

Consistency-Based Computing Of Fuzzy Eigenvalues And Fuzzy Eigenvectors: Method And Application, Kamala. R. Aliyeva Prof., Nihad Mehdiyev, Shamil Mehdi

Chemical Technology, Control and Management

The computation of eigenvalues and eigenvectors under uncertainty is a fundamental problem in fuzzy linear algebra and decision analysis. When matrix elements are represented by fuzzy numbers, classical spectral methods cannot be directly applied due to nonlinearity, ambiguity in ordering, and the propagation of uncertainty. Moreover, in many practical applications, particularly those involving pairwise comparison matrices, the reliability of eigenvalue-based results strongly depends on the consistency of the underlying data. This paper proposes a consistency-based framework for computing fuzzy eigenvalues and fuzzy eigenvectors that explicitly integrates consistency analysis into the spectral derivation process. The proposed method preserves the fuzzy structure …

Conceptual Model For Protecting Personal Data By Depersonalization In Information Systems: Principles, Components, And Life Cycle, Zarina Ildarovna Azizova

Chemical Technology, Control and Management

This article presents a systematic approach to personal data protection through depersonalization in the context of regulatory pressure and growing cyber threats. It proposes a comprehensive conceptual model that formalizes the de-identification process as a manageable sequence of steps, from attribute classification and method selection to mandatory verification of the result. The article also provides a comparative analysis of existing depersonalization methods in terms of their applicability within the proposed model. The model serves as a basis for the development of specific algorithms, as demonstrated by the example of a data shuffling approach.

Ai-Based Environmental Economic - Modeling: A Case Of Germany (1994–2024), Zahraa Taha Naqee

Journal of Economics and Administrative Sciences

This research aims to analyse the impact of economic and energy variables on carbon emissions in Germany during the period (1994–2024), within the framework of environmental economic modelling based on artificial intelligence techniques. The study is based on the hypothesis that the nature of the energy structure and the level of economic activity contribute to explaining changes in carbon dioxide emissions to varying degrees. To verify this hypothesis, an artificial neural network model was adopted to analyse the relationship between a set of independent variables represented by total energy consumption, total energy production, the proportion of renewable energy in total …

Genetic Variation In Slc6a4 And Cytochrome P450 Enzymes: Implications For Personalized Antidepressant Treatment In Major Depressive Disorder, Claudia Buda

Harriet L Wilkes Honors College Theses 2020 - Present

Depression is one of the most common psychiatric disorders worldwide, with a significant impact on quality of life and global health. Despite the widespread use of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) as first-line treatment, individual responses vary significantly due to genetic differences. Variations in the serotonin transporter gene (SLC6A4) and the cytochrome P450 (CYP450) enzyme family have been identified as key factors influencing the efficacy, metabolism, and tolerability of SSRIs. This thesis examines the impact of polymorphisms in SLC6A4 and CYP450 on SSRI pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics, explores their potential for guiding personalized antidepressant therapy, and discusses the ethical and practical …

Admixture-Informed Polygenic Risk Reporting Using The Eprs Framework, Yu-Jyun Huang, Nuzulul Kurniansyah, Matthew O Goodman, Brian W Spitzer, Jiongming Wang, Adrienne Stilp, Cecelia Laurie, Paul S De Vries, Han Chen, Yuan-I Min, Mario Sims, Gina M Peloso, Xiuqing Guo, Joshua C Bis, Jennifer A Brody, Laura M Raffield, Jennifer A Smith, Wei Zhao, Jerome I Rotter, Stephen S Rich, Susan Redline, Myriam Fornage, Robert Kaplan, Nora Franceschini, Daniel Levy, Alanna C Morrison, Eric Boerwinkle, Nicholas L Smith, Charles Kooperberg, Bruce M Psaty, Sebastian Zöllner, Tamar Sofer

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

Polygenic risk score values vary with genetic ancestry due to differences in population-specific allele frequencies and linkage disequilibrium patterns. We present a framework to calibrate polygenic risk scores based on ancestral makeup. We propose the "expected polygenic risk score" or ePRS, defined as the expected value of a polygenic risk score based on one's global or local admixture patterns. We further define the "residual polygenic risk score" or rPRS as measuring the deviation of the polygenic risk score from the ePRS. The ePRS reflects the baseline ancestry-driven component of genetic risk, whereas the rPRS isolates an ancestry-agnostic measure of genetic …

Global Study On Newborn Hospitalization And Parental Experiences (Hope): Rationale And Design Of A Multinational Cross-Sectional Mixed-Methods Online Survey, Hope Study Working Group, Julia Hoffmann, Ruth Kemper, Helmut Hummler, Ayse Düzenli, Luc J I Zimmermann, Silke Mader, Christina Tischer, Jos Latour

School of Nursing and Midwifery

INTRODUCTION: Newborns who are born too soon, too small or sick are a vulnerable group who require special/high-dependency/intensive care after birth. Infant and Family-Centred Developmental Care (IFCDC) is an integrated healthcare approach that prioritises and values parental/familial involvement and participation by fostering competencies in essential newborn care skills and thus parental empowerment. There is a paucity of data globally on the IFCDC practice and the challenges faced by parents/caregivers during hospitalisation and post-discharge and the potential country-specific support.

OBJECTIVE: The primary objective of the HOPE study (Global Study on Newborn HOspitalization and Parental Experiences) is to assess parents'/caregivers' experiences, needs …

A Two-Phase Hippocampal Code Linking Time And Distance Estimation To Action, Raphael Heldman

Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2020 - Present

A critical component of spatial navigation is the ability to estimate elapsed time or distance traveled. How the brain generates such estimates and links them to behavior remains unclear. In this thesis, we identify a previously unrecognized population coding strategy for time or distance in hippocampal CA1, a region critical for navigation and memory. Using novel behavioral paradigms in head-fixed mice combined with electrophysiological recordings, we show that this code is carried by two functionally distinct subpopulations of pyramidal neurons, termed PyrUp and PyrDown, whose firing rates evolve in opposite directions during navigation. Both populations exhibit a common two-phase dynamic: …

Monastic Botanical Gardens: Medicinal Plants, Cultural Heritage, And Tourist Routes, Polyxeni G. Moira Dr, Dimitrios Mylonopoulos

International Journal of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage

in the natural environment. The natural environment, of which humans are an integral part, served as the first laboratory for the production of medicines. Medicinal botany can be traced back to ancient Greece, continued through ancient Rome, was closely linked to Islamic tradition, and persisted through the rise of Christianity in monasteries, enduring to the present day. Monastic botanical gardens serve as living proof of the relationship between humans, nature, healing, and spirituality. These gardens, which for centuries cultivated plants for medicinal, nutritional, and functional uses, can now be leveraged to promote tourism, cultural heritage, and environmental awareness.

Uncertainty Handling In Stock Market Prediction: A Fuzzy Markov Chain Approach, Alpa Singh Rajput, Arpan Singh Rajput

Neutrosophic Systems with Applications

Predicting the stock market is never easy because it is influenced by many uncertain and constantly changing factors such as economic conditions, investor behaviour, and global events. Traditional models like the Crisp Markov Chain (CMC) try to predict market movements by using fixed probabilities for different states like bullish, bearish, or stagnant. However, real markets do not behave in such a strict way—they often move gradually between states, which these models fail to capture. To overcome this limitation, this study introduces a Fuzzy Markov Chain (FMC) model, where fuzzy logic is used to handle uncertainty and allow smoother transitions between …
