Emotional - Behavioral Difficulties and Prosocial Behaviour among Vietnamese Adolescents: the Role of Social Support by Nguyen Thi Thuy

“…Through multible regression analysis, support from their families significantly predicted to decrease students' emotional and behavioural symptoms (β\< 0; p\< .05) and increasing prosocial behaviours (β\> 0; p \< .05). In contrast, friend support only contribute to protecting adolescents from behavioural problems (β = -.18; p \< .05) and encouraged prosocial behaviours (β = .22; p \< .05) # Discussion Family support had a central role in its positive contribution to reducing emotional-behavioural and prosocial behaviour problems. …”

Gender Classification With Hand-Wrist Radiographs Using the Deep Learning Method by İbrahim Yücel Özbek, Mustafa Taha Güller, Zeynep Turanli Tosun, Nida Kumbasar, Özkan Miloğlu

“…This study aims to determine gender from hand-wrist radiographs using different deep-learning methods.Methods: The left hand-wrist radiographs of 1044 individuals (534 males and 510 females) were pre-processed to clarify the image and adjust the contrast. In the gender classification problem, AlexNet, VGG16 and VGG19 transfer learning methods were both used as separate classifiers, and the features taken from these methods were combined and given to the support vector machine (SVM) classifier.Results: The results revealed that image analysis and deep learning techniques provided 91.1% accuracy in gender determination.Conclusion: Hand-wrist radiographs exhibited sexual dimorphism and could be used in gender prediction.Keywords: Deep learning; İmage analysis; Hand-wrist radiographs; Gender determination…”

On Travelling Wave Modes of Axially Moving String and Beam by Lei Lu, Xiao-Dong Yang, Wei Zhang, Siu-Kai Lai

“…Although there are n − 1 fixed nodes in the nth order mode, similar to the vibration of traditional static strings, the presence of travelling wave phenomenon is still spotted between any two adjacent nodes. In contrast to the stationary nodes of string modes, the occurrence of galloping nodes of axially moving beams is discovered: the nodes oscillate periodically during modal motions. …”
