The purpose of the article is to substantiate the fiscal role of the excise tax by studying its information and functional potential and to model the dynamics of its payment by the brewing industry. Excise tax occupies a special place in a tax system of each state because, in addition to significant fiscal importance, it has a considerable regulatory impact on the production and consumption of certain categories of goods. Based on information systems in the article analyses and monitors the indicators of the excise tax payments on goods produced in Ukraine on the example of a particular enterprise in the brewing industry. By means of the initial data analysis of autocorrelation functions of volumes’ indicators of the accrued excise taxes on beer the expediency of modelling realization of such indicator dynamics on the basis of ARIMA model is proved. The analytical and statistical approaches to the formation of models for the implementation of forecast for the calculation of excise tax on beer of brewing industry enterprises are improved. The proposed approach is based on the values of autocorrelation of balances and partial autocorrelation, as well as methods of analysis of time series with gaps, which allows to use it in the economic activity of enterprises to make forecasts for the calculation and payment of the excise tax. This will produce financial effects for the brewing industry in terms of cost optimization and minimization of the excise tax risks.
Effects of the Pandemic on the Adoption of E-Wallets Among Young Adults in Malaysia(مقاله علمی وزارت علوم)
حوزههای تخصصی:
The rapid growth and advancement of electronic devices and technologies in the FinTech industry empower new innovative products and services. The covid-19 pandemic could have a devastating effect on Malaysia’s economy, but it has offered additional opportunities for the E-wallet segment of the Fintech business to thrive. The E-wallet segment of FinTech is one of the latest innovations that is currently growing as there is a need for contactless payments during the pandemic situation. The main objective of the study is to examine the factors affecting e-wallet adoption among young adults in Malaysia. A sample of 200 responses was analyzed using Smart PLS 3.0. The findings revealed that the factors of “performance expectancy”, “effort expectancy”, “compatibility”, and “social influence” have a positive and significant impact during the pandemic; however, the factor of “facilitating conditions” has no significant impact on the adoption of the E-wallets. The study substantiates the key and important variables of adoption in order to develop and evolve E-wallet providers' existing services. Particularly, due to the increasing importance of e-commerce, E-wallet service providers are urged to focus on the system's interoperability, which encourages individuals or customers to use the strategy. They should include unique features that allow customers to accept the service, trust its benefits and feel comfortable using the technology. The study is useful to the E-wallet providers to improve the existing services. The findings also guide the companies offering E-wallets to enhance the usage and adoption of their services.
Social Media Value Creation Practices and Interactivity of Electronic Word of Mouth Systems(مقاله علمی وزارت علوم)
حوزههای تخصصی:
The main drivers of value creation in a ‘brand community’ are social networking, community engagement, impression management, and brand use. Marketers are therefore interested in determining which factors affect the value creation practices. This study examines the impact of the Interactivity of Electronic Word of Mouth (EWOM) systems on value creation practices in a brand community, which in turn influences the loyalty of the customers. In this regard, a conceptual model was developed and tested by the researchers of the current study. The results indicate that perceptions of the users regarding the interactivity of EWOM systems, highly impact only three of the four value creation practices including community engagement practices, impression management practices, and brand use practices. Furthermore, the researchers found that collective value creation practices could significantly and directly enhance brand loyalty. Several theoretical contributions and managerial implications were also discussed

Artificial Intelligence Driven Human Identification(مقاله علمی وزارت علوم)
حوزههای تخصصی:
Human Identification has been widely implemented to enhance the efficiency of surveillance systems, however, systems based on common CCTV (closed-circuit television) cameras are mostly incompatible with the advanced identification algorithms which aim to extract the facial features or speech of an individual for identification. Gait (i.e., an individual’s unique walking pattern/style) is a leading exponent when compared to first-generation biometric modalities as it is unobtrusive (i.e., it requires no contact with the individual), hence proving gait to be an optimal solution to human identification at a distance. This paper proposes an automatic identification system that analyzes gait to identify humans at a distance and predicts the strength of the match (i.e., probability of the match being positive) between two gait profiles. This is achieved by incorporating computer vision, digital image processing, vectorization, artificial intelligence, and multi-threading. The proposed model extracts gait profiles (from low-resolution camera feeds) by breaking down the complete gait cycle into four quarter-cycles using the variations in the width of the region-of-interest and then saves the gait profile in the form of four distinct projections (i.e., vectors) of length 20 units each, thus, summing up to 80 features for each individual’s gait profile. The focus of this study revolved around the speed-accuracy tradeoff of the proposed model where, with a limited dataset and training, the model runs at a speed of 30Hz and yields 85% accurate results on average. A Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve (ROC) is obtained for comparison of the proposed model with other machine learning models to better understand the efficiency of the system

حوزههای تخصصی:
درک اهمیت رفتار نوآورانه و خلاقانه معلمان در مدرسه، موضوع حیاتی و چالش برانگیزی برای مسئولان آموزش و پژوهشگران می باشد، زیرا مدارس به عنوان اجتماعات یادگیری حرفه ای وظیفه دارند حامی رفتارهای نوآورانه باشند. در واقع، از آنجایی که از مدارس و معلمان انتظار می رود دانش آموزانی را تربیت نمایند که در آینده، نیروی کاری خلاق و نوآور باشند، اهمیت رفتار نوآورانه معلمان به عنوان عاملان تغییر و الگوی دانش آموزان در این مسیر، امری مبرهن است. لذا هدف پژوهش، بررسی تاثیر جو نوآورانه بر رفتارهای نوآورانه معلمان با نقش واسطه ای تسهیم دانش بود. پژوهش حاضر از نظر هدف، کاربردی و از نظر اجرا، توصیفی-همبستگی بود. جامعه آماری، شامل معلمان شهر کاشان به تعداد 3252 نفر بود که با استفاده از فرمول کوکران و به روش نمونه گیری تصادفی طبقه ای 351 نفر به عنوان نمونه انتخاب شدند. جهت گردآوری داده ها از سه پرسشنامه جو سازمانی نوآورانه سیگل و کایمر (1978)، تسهیم دانش واندن هوف و دریدر (2004) و رفتار نوآورانه کانتر (1988) استفاده شد. روایی پرسشنامه ها به صورت صوری و سازه (تحلیل عاملی تاییدی) انجام شد. از طریق ضریب آلفای کرونباخ، پایایی پرسشنامه جو نوآورانه 88/0، رفتار نوآورانه 90/0 و تسهیم دانش 77/0 بدست آمد. تحلیل داده های پژوهش با استفاده از نرم افزارهای آماری SPSS و اسمارت در دو سطح توصیفی و استنباطی انجام گردید. نتایج نشان داد میانگین جو نوآورانه (96/2) کمی پایین تر از حد متوسط (3)، میانگین رفتار نوآورانه (95/3) بالاتر از حد متوسط (3) و میانگین تسهیم دانش (11/4) بالاتر از حد متوسط (5/2) بود. ضرایب مسیر نشان داد جو نوآورانه با (425/0=Beta، 001/0=P) روی رفتار نوآورانه، تسهیم دانش با (15/0=Beta، 002/0=P) روی رفتار نوآورانه و جو نوآورانه با (40/0=Beta، 001/0=P) روی تسهیم دانش معلمان، تاثیر مثبت و معنادار دارد و نقش میانجی تسهیم دانش، در تاثیر جو نوآورانه روی رفتار نوآورانه معلمان تایید شد. در واقع، هنگامی که معلمان جو سازمان را جوی حمایتی و حامی نوآوری ادراک می کنند، تمایل بیشتری به تسهیم دانش و تبدیل دانش ضمنی به دانش آشکار خواهند داشت و در حقیقت، بستری مناسب برای توزیع دانش بین معلمان فراهم می شود، تبادل اطلاعات صورت می گیرد و همین مسئله، زمینه ساز و پتانسیل بالقوه ای است برای بروز رفتار نوآورانه.

حوزههای تخصصی:
رویگردانی مشتری یکی از مسایل مهمی است که شرکت های ارایه دهنده سرویس اینترنت در بازار رقابتی و به سرعت درحال اشباع با آن روبه رو هستند. به دلیل هزینه های بالای مرتبط با جذب مشتری جدید، این شرکت ها به رویکرد حفظ مشتری که صریحا به دنبال کاهش رویگردانی است، روی آورده اند. این تحقیق، رویگردانی مشتریان سرویس های اینترنت یکی از بزرگ ترین شرکت های مخابراتی ایران را مورد بررسی قرار داده است. به منظور پیش بینی رویگردانی، داده های مشتریان طی شش ماه جمع آوری شده و رویگردانی آن ها در یک بازه یک ساله بررسی شده است. علاوه بر پیش بینی رویگردانی، مهم ترین ویژگی های موثر در طبقه بندی رویگردان ها و غیررویگردان ها نیز تعیین شده است. در مرحله پیش پردازش از روش "کم نمونه برداری تصادفی" برای متعادل سازی مجموعه داده و از روش "حداقل افزونگی، حداکثر ارتباط" برای انتخاب ویژگی استفاده شده است. سپس الگوریتم های "جنگل تصادفی"، "ماشین بردار پشتیبان" و "کا نزدیک ترین همسایگان" برای طبقه بندی مشتریان رویگردان و غیررویگردان به کار رفتند که معیارهای ارزیابی، نشان دهنده برتری الگوریتم جنگل تصادفی است. مدل نهایی که از ترکیب روش های متعادل سازی، انتخاب ویژگی و طبقه بندی به دست آمد تحت عنوان مدل RUS-mRMR-RF به عنوان یک مدل کارآمد در پیش بینی رویگردانی مشتریان و شناسایی مهم ترین ویژگی های موثر در طبقه بندی رویگردان ها و غیررویگردان ها محسوب می گردد. نتایج این مطالعه بینش ارزشمندی را جهت تدوین استراتژی های حفظ مشتری به سازمان ارایه می دهد.
بررسی انتقادی ساختارهای فقهی - حقوقی اهل تسنن
حوزههای تخصصی:
بسیاری از فقیهان متأخر اهل تسنن ساختارهای فقهی- حقوقی طراحی کرده اند. این ساختارها دو جنبه ای هستند؛ بدین معنا که از دو ساختار علمی بهره برده اند. در مقاله حاضر این نظریه دنبال می شود که متأخران اهل تسنن (از زرقاء) ساختارهای فقهی خود را با توجه به علم حقوق طراحی کرده اند. آنان کوشیده اند ساختارهای فقهی را به ساختارهای حقوقی نزدیک سازند. برخی از فقیهان اهل تسنن ساختار فقه را ناظر به حقوق طراحی کرده اند (ساختار زحیلی و شلتوت)، اما برخی دیگر افراط داشته و ساختار فقه را از علم حقوق اقتباس نموده اند. روش دوم مناسب طراحی ساختار علم فقه نیست، هرچند در ساختار قانونگذاری شاید بتوان از آن دفاع کرد؛ چون زبان قانون باید بین المللی باشد. در این مقاله شش ساختار از مهم ترین ساختارهای فقهی حقوقی با نگاه انتقادی بررسی و مزایا و کاستی های آنها بیان می شوند. این ساختارها عبارتند از: ساختار زرقاء در الفقه الاسلامی فی ثوبه الجدید؛ ساختار خلّاف در علم اصول الفقه؛ ساختار شلتوت در الاسلام عقیده و شریعه؛ ساختار فقه در الموسوعه الفقهیه الکویتیه؛ ساختار وهبه زحیلی در الفقه الاسلامی و ادلته؛ و ساختار جمال عطیه در تجدید الفقه الاسلامی.

حوزههای تخصصی:
In recent years, Blockchain technology has been recognized as one of the most important new technologies affecting businesses and society, with a very bright future ahead. This technology is known as one of the most critical technologies of industry 4. Given that Blockchain technology is a new concept, before implementing it, the organization must understand it and be prepared to accept it; otherwise, the organization will incur irreparable damages. The main purpose of this study is to provide a framework within which organizations can evaluate their readiness to implement Blockchain technology. For this purpose, after a library study and systematic literature review, this study provided the initial research framework using the meta-synthesis method. Finally, the Lawshe model was applied to validate the proposed framework for the organization's readiness to implement Blockchain technology. Based on the findings, the final established framework included seven main dimensions, including Blockchain-based business strategy, operations of a distributed system, culture, people in Blockchain decentralized network, decentralized governance, technology, and Blockchain-based product traceability. Besides, 37 main criteria affected these dimensions, which can help companies increase the level of Blockchain technology readiness. Finally, this framework was used to measure the readiness of an airline company. According to the results of the analysis, Blockchain-based business strategy, culture, and Blockchain-based product traceability showed a medium level of readiness. Moreover, none of the main dimensions of Blockchain technology readiness were sufficiently prepared in this case study. This paper suggests practical recommendations to improve the level of Blockchain technology readiness for the managers

حوزههای تخصصی:
گستره عصمت پیامبر اکرم| از مباحث اختلافی مفسران شیعه و سنی است که ذیل برخی آیات نافی عصمت، مانند آیه 2 سوره فتح، مطرح می شود. این آیه به صراحت، از وجود گناه بنده و بخشش آن از طرف خداوند برای رسول اکرم| حکایت دارد. این مقاله به روش توصیفی- تحلیلی، به تطبیق دیدگاه علامه طباطبایی(ره) و طبری، دو تن از مفسران برجسته فریقین، در کشف معنای واژه در آیه، و آیات همنوا پرداخته است. درنتیجه با وجود تفاوت هایی در مبانی اعتقادی ، هر دو مفسر، قائل به معنایی متفاوت از «ذنب» و «استغفار» مطرح در آیه، نسبت به دیگر آیات همنوا هستند. طبری براساس قرائن خارجی، از روایت عایشه و دستور استغفار به پیامبر| در آیه 3 سوره نصر، بدون ارتباط مستقیم با معنای لغوی، آن را به مرتبه ای از شکر تعبیر می کند که تعبیری جدید در واژه بنابر اصطلاح عرفانی است. طباطبایی براساس سیاق آیات، گناه مطرح در آیه را به تصور گناه مشرکان نسبت به رسول اکرم| برمی گرداند و بخشش از آن را به معنای پاک کردن آثار حاصل از دشمنی و پیامدهای کینه مشرکان به پیامبر| می داند که مطابق معنای ریشه واژه در ادبیات است.
Analysis of Different Path Loss Propagation Models Based on 4G Walk Test Data(مقاله علمی وزارت علوم)
حوزههای تخصصی:
The study of path loss propagation is of high importance in telecommunication, for optimizing the efficiency of wireless communication networks. In this paper, four path loss propagation models; free space path loss (FSPL) model, Okumura model, Okumura-Hata model, and COST 231-Hata model were compared. The models were compared using measurement data from Choba, Port Harcourt, Nigeria. The data is gotten from a 4G walk test using two mobile applications. The first mobile application Network, Signal Info (version 5.68.07), was used to acquire the received signal strength in and the distance between the BTS antenna and the mobile antenna. While the second mobile application, G-NetTrack Lite (version 14.8), was used to map out the track path followed during the test. Choba, the study area, is a coastal suburban area with map coordinates 4.8941° N, 6.9263° E. The measured distance range was from 0.09 km to 0.45 km, and a path loss range of 69dB to 81dB. While the BTS and mobile antenna heights were 32 m and 1m respectively, with a carrier frequency of 800MHz. BTS transmission power of 23 dBm was assumed, based on 3GPP eNodeB recommendations. A graph comparison of the studied models showed that Okumura-Hata model and COST 231-Hata model had the closest predictions to the measured path loss. The need for better path loss models for 4G and 5G propagations was observed

حوزههای تخصصی:
Day by day demand for object tracing is increasing because of the huge scope in real-time applications. Object tracing is one of the difficult issues in the computer vision and video processing field. Nowadays, object tracing is a common problem in many applications specifically video footage, traffic management, video indexing, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and many other related fields. In this paper, the Enhanced Method of Object Tracing Using Extended Kalman Filter via Binary Search Algorithm is proposed. Initially, the background subtraction method was used for merge sort and binary search algorithm to identify moving objects from the video. Merge sort is to divide the regions and conquer the algorithm that arranges the region in ascending order. After sorting, the binary search algorithm detects the position of noise in sorted frames and then the next step extended the Kalman Filter algorithm used to predict the moving object. The proposed methodology is linear about the valuation of mean and covariance parameters. Finally, the proposed work considered less time as compared to the state of art methods while tacking the moving objects. Its shows less absolute error and less object tracing error while evaluating the proposed work.

حوزههای تخصصی:
At this time in history that the world is becoming smaller every day due to globalization; it is important to achieve an acceptable degree of trust and confidence in any field; and blockchain can put the world on this path. Since there is no central authority governing blockchain, its decentralized nature can turn it into an appropriate platform for project management. Implementing blockchain eliminates project management bureaucracies and allows a single, unchangeable, controllable, and encrypted source to be accessible to everybody and extensible throughout the project life cycle. This approach is the key to achieve an integrated information system and is one of the important reasons for blockchain applicability as an ideal platform for project management and construction. This issue that using blockchain technology in project management will bring about capacities and capabilities has not yet been seriously addressed. Changing the management of construction projects by blockchain is just an idea for now. This study aims to identify the capacity and platforms for developing blockchain technology in project management and construction using systematic and scoping literature reviews. Moreover, it provides some suggestions about the development and improvement areas of this technology. The review results showed that in all areas of project management and construction, there are applications relevant to blockchain technology that confirm the gradual understanding of the significance and positive impact of this technology on enhancing project management and construction performance. According to the results, a major part of blockchain studies was focused on “program and project management”, and two fields of human resources and behavioural areas and research in project management and schools of thought with a share of less than 2% of existing studies were neglected.
