Model boundary value problem for the Helmholtz equation in a nonconvex angle with periodic boundary data
Abstract In the present work, we solve the Dirichlet boundary problem for the Helmholtz equation in an exterior angle with periodic boundary data. We prove the existence and uniqueness of solution in an appropriate functional class and give an explicit formula for it in the form of the Sommerfeld integral. The method of complex characteristics (Komech and Merzon in Stationary Diffraction by Wedges, Lect. Notes Math., vol. 2249, Springer, Berlin, 2019) is used
From lab to everyday life: investigating attention and executive function deficits in a naturalistic paradigm
Bridging the gap between experimental research and real-world settings is essential for understanding attention and executive function deficits in everyday life, as traditional experimental paradigms often fail to capture such challenges faced by individuals with e.g., attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). This doctoral thesis utilized a novel virtual reality (VR) paradigm, EPELI (Executive Performance in Everyday LIfe), to explore how ADHD symptoms manifest, how they can be objectively measured and how they are reflected at the neuronal level in environments that mimic everyday life.
Study I integrated a function-led approach, eye tracking, computational modeling, and machine learning to improve the detection of complex attention patterns in ADHD. The study demonstrated that eye-movement metrics obtained in the naturalistic EPELI task outperformed the previously established task performance measures in predicting ADHD.
Study II investigated intra-individual variability (IIV) of response latencies in the naturalistic EPELI task and compared it to IIV in a traditional continuous performance test (CPT). The study revealed distinct temporal patterns of attentional fluctuations in ADHD, depending on the behavioral context (task-relevant vs. task-irrelevant behaviors) and task. The results demonstrated that EPELI effectively captures real-world behaviors associated with ADHD and provides novel insights into IIV across different contexts.
Study III examined functional connectivity (FC) of brain activity in children with ADHD across three experimental conditions: naturalistic goal-directed tasks (EPELI), passive video viewing, and resting state. Results showed that altered FC in ADHD was most pronounced during goal-directed tasks, underscoring the task-dependent nature of ADHD-related aberrant brain activity. Furthermore, VRbased tasks provide opportunities for novel understanding of brain-behavior relationships in a naturalistic context by correlating FC patterns with ongoing task performance.
Study IV examined attention deficits in adults with ADHD using the adult online version of EPELI. Adults with ADHD showed partially similar behavioral patterns in EPELI task to children with ADHD in Studies I-III, though the effects were less pronounced and gender dependent. The study highlights potential of video games and remote testing for detecting impulsive behaviors and inefficient strategies in adults with ADHD.
The research demonstrated the advantages of naturalistic paradigms like EPELI in detecting ADHDrelated behavioral and neuronal patterns, offering promising avenues for enhancing diagnostics and understanding of ADHD and improving quality of life for those affected by the condition
Descriptive analysis of benchmarking in respect to SMART/UNI-Q systems' intellectual integrations within the european higher education area [Дескриптивный анализ бенчмаркинга интеллектуальных интеграций SMART/UNI-Q систем в рамках Европейского пространства высшего образования]
Introduction. The strategy for the development of international education ERASMUS 20.30 stimulates the study of how intellectual integration programmes are introduced into the system of further education of universities around the world. The research is relevant, for studying the integration of intellectual potential in a single space of higher and further education EHEA allows to determine the efficacy of application of world benchmarking technologies in the management of SMART/UNI-Q systems and the convergence of world universities. The EU Education Department conditioned the significance of the research content by the target request to investigate the change in the benchmarking mission at the international education market and to make a thorough informational review of its application in the international activities of universities in the EU, CIS and the Russian Federation for the dissemination of information by international partner universities of ERASMUS central office. The study aims at identifying general and specific indicators of sustainable international partnerships that affect consumer demand at the international education and labour markets by means of concretization of an extensive descriptive analysis of the intellectual integration benchmarking and the description of the processes of benchmarking technology application, its scientific identification and implementation in individual universities, university alliances and consortia. Researchers were looking for an answer to the question: why, with high interest and theoretical recognition of technology benchmarking in quality management, universities show low rates of benchmarking in assessing the quality of their international activities. Materials and Methods. It is the first time that the research of benchmarking intellectual integrations in the university international activities uses the method of descriptive analysis. The study identifies active sectors of the SMART / UNI-Q benchmarking for the entire set of data voluntarily submitted by the universities participating in the projects of the Austrian Institute for Intellectual Integrations in the pre-pandemic period of 2017-2020. The participating countries have analyzed the share of key participants and the share of published benchmarking studies. The study analyzes the changes in the benchmarking mission in the international education market in accordance with the needs of global consumers. The analysis uses the data of the bases of the EU Department of Education, the ETINED platform and open-access European dissertation reviews portals. The research uses the WERGELAND European Resource Center data as the comparison point indicators. The study presents an analysis of five segments of international benchmarking: transparency, diversity, “product line”, digital activity, and digital management tools. Modus infographics shows the real, improved and ideal models. The applied comparative analysis studies the asynchrony of academic mobility during the COVID crisis. Results. The research findings show low value of efficiency indicators for the use of intellectual integration benchmarking in the international cooperation of university alliances. The predominance and stable efficiency in the use of benchmarking takes place at certain universities in Europe during periods of activity in implementing new strategies of international education and only for a short time most often during the periods of university accreditation. The model for overcoming sustainable development asynchronies in the management of SMART/UNI-Q systems according to the criterion of guaranteeing the quality of higher education in international cooperation EHEA is not final and today it is possible to characterize it through descriptive indicators. Amid the economic crisis and turbulence associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, a decline in large-scale academic mobility is an inevitable trend. However, due to the growing difference in the responses of economies and management in the field of higher vocational education between developed and less developed countries, as well as with the strengthening of general trends in economic integration, the number of academic migrants is likely to increase. Asynchrony, that is, unevenness, of opportunities and adaptation to the new digital environment of university consortia and the possibility to implement the opportunities in practice has become a psychological problem of scientific migration. Discussion and Conclusion. The materials of this article will be useful to CEO-s of international universities, heads of departments of international activities, employees of ERASMUS national offices, coordinators of ERASMUS+ projects, departments of continuing professional education and academic mobility in the development of promising strategies for external and internal benchmarking of inter-university projects of intellectual integration and international activity quality management. © Sibgatullina-Denis I., Riabov O.R., Merzon E.E., Vančová A., 202
