Challenges and impasses in Kant’s theory of truth and judgment: An interpretation of Kant’s anti-Realism by Lucas Ribeiro Vollet

“…Kant employs the theory of apperception and judgment, which functions by generating pure conceptual parameters (categories) to address this tension. The manner in which Kant’s theory of apperception and judgment offers solutions to the challenge of aligning truth and proof is in line with epistemic, anti-realistic, anti-metaphysical, and non-classical approaches to logical representation (which aligns with Kant’s transcendental logic). …”

Neural network decoding of the block Markov superposition transmission by Qianfan WANG, Sheng BI, Zengzhe CHEN, Li CHEN, Xiao MA

“…A neural network (NN)-based decoding algorithm of block Markov superposition transmission (BMST) was researched.The decoders of the basic code with different network structures and representations of training data were implemented using NN.Integrating the NN-based decoder of the basic code in an iterative manner,a sliding window decoding algorithm was presented.To analyze the bit error rate (BER) performance,the genie-aided (GA) lower bounds were presented.The NN-based decoding algorithm of the BMST provides a possible way to apply NN to decode long codes.That means the part of the conventional decoder could be replaced by the NN.Numerical results show that the NN-based decoder of basic code can achieve the BER performance of the maximum likelihood (ML) decoder.For the BMST codes,BER performance of the NN-based decoding algorithm matches well with the GA lower bound and exhibits an extra coding gain.…”

Crocetin Alleviates Inflammation in MPTP-Induced Parkinson’s Disease Models through Improving Mitochondrial Functions by Na Dong, Zhong Dong, Ying Chen, Xiaosu Gu

“…Furthermore, crocetin treatment protected mitochondrial functions against MPP+ induced damage by regulating the mPTP (mitochondrial permeability transition pore) viability in the interaction of ANT (adenine nucleotide translocase) and Cyp D (Cyclophilin D) dependent manner. Therefore, our results demonstrate that crocetin has therapeutic potential in Parkinson’s disease.…”

Socialisation entre pairs et genre lors du passage en 6e by Benoit Dejaiffe, Gaelle Espinosa

“…The results show that beyond the stereotyped discourse held by the students according to which boys and girls experience their entry into secondary school in the same manner, a more detailed analysis reveals that there is a difference in the way girls and boys talk about their own experience in terms of peer socialization and in the words they use to formulate it.…”

An analysis of two couplets of Ferdowsi and Malek-o alshoara Bahar according to formalism approach by محمود رضایی دشت‌ارژنه

“…In the end the result is that even though Malek-o alshoara Bahar has been successful in this imitation, Ferdowsi in more artistic manner has succeed to add the richness of his poetry with more attention to form and voice patterns and subtle use of rhetorical and literary elements, so he has revealed literary discourse in his poem as prominent as possible.…”

Total flavonoids of Abelmoschus manihot ameliorate lipid deposition in HK-2 cells by inhibiting fatty acid uptake mediated by CD36 by Xiaofang Wang, Chenquan Tang, Yi Jiang, Yi Xue, Enchao Zhou

“…The results indicated that total flavones of A. manihot could inhibit the expression of CD36 in HK-2 cells in a dose-dependent manner and reduce lipid deposition. Consequently, total flavones of A. manihot protect HK-2 cells by reducing intracellular lipid deposition by inhibiting CD36-mediated fatty acid uptake. …”

Numerical Investigation into Flutter and Flutter-Buffet Phenomena for a Swept Wing and a Curved Planform Wing by Mario Rosario Chiarelli, Salvatore Bonomo

“…In addition, for such a wing, the aeroelastic instability condition, consisting in a classical flutter, is postponed compared to a conventional swept wing, for which a flutter-buffet instability occurs. In a preliminary manner, the study shows that, for a curved planform wing, the high speed buffet is not an issue and at the same time notable fuel saving can be achieved.…”
