Cybersecurity: Threats, Strategies, and Future Directions
Cybersecurity has become a critical issue in the digital age, as individuals, businesses, and governments face an ever-evolving cyber threat landscape. This research provides an overview of the different types of cyber threats, cybersecurity strategies, current challenges, mitigation strategies, the role of AI in this context, examples of attacks, countries pioneers in this field, and recommendations for policymakers. The research highlights the importance of a multi-layered approach to cybersecurity that incorporates prevention, detection, and response strategies. The research also discusses the potential of emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence and quantum computing, to revolutionize cybersecurity.

Negation and Speculation Corpora in Natural Language Processing
Negation and speculation are universal linguistic phenomena that affect the performance of Natural Language Processing (NLP) applications, such as those for opinion mining and information retrieval, especially in biomedical data.

Scriptural Reasoning
Scriptural Reasoning ("SR") is one type of interdisciplinary, interfaith scriptural reading. It is an evolving practice in which Christians, Jews, Muslims, and sometimes members of other faiths, meet to study their sacred scriptures together, and to explore the ways in which such study can help them understand and respond to particular contemporary issues. Originally developed by theologians and religious philosophers as a means of fostering post-critical and postliberal corrections to patterns of modern reasoning, it has now spread beyond academic circles. The claims made by some of Scriptural Reasoning's founder practitioners that they have requisite knowledge of ancient traditions of Islamic, Jewish and Christian exegesis and also the authority to apply such traditional wisdom to correct modernist binarist or fundamentalist readings, have been challenged by theologians of different faiths. The practical outworking of some Scriptural Reasoning projects have been criticised for alleged lack of parity between participating religions, and alleged instrumentalising of sacred texts for political and financial purposes.

Heuristic (Computer Science)
In mathematical optimization and computer science, heuristic (from Greek εὑρίσκω "I find, discover") is a technique designed for solving a problem more quickly when classic methods are too slow, or for finding an approximate solution when classic methods fail to find any exact solution. This is achieved by trading optimality, completeness, accuracy, or precision for speed. In a way, it can be considered a shortcut. A heuristic function, also simply called a heuristic, is a function that ranks alternatives in search algorithms at each branching step based on available information to decide which branch to follow. For example, it may approximate the exact solution.

Deep Learning Models for Radiography in Chest Disease
Chest X-ray radiography (CXR) is among the most frequently used medical imaging modalities. It has a preeminent value in the detection of multiple life-threatening diseases. Radiologists can visually inspect CXR images for the presence of diseases. Most thoracic diseases have very similar patterns, which makes diagnosis prone to human error and leads to misdiagnosis. Machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) provided techniques to make this task more efficient and faster. Numerous experiments in the diagnosis of various diseases proved the potential of these techniques.

NER&RE Techniques on Clinical Texts
Out of the various text mining tasks and techniques, our goal in this paper is to review the current state-of-the-art in Clinical Named Entity Recognition (NER) and Relationship Extraction (RE)-based techniques. Clinical NER is a natural language processing (NLP) method used for extracting important medical concepts and events i.e., clinical NEs from the data. Relationship Extraction (RE) is used for detecting and classifying the annotated semantic relationships between the recognized entities.

Public Transport COVID-19-Safe: New Barriers and Policies
The COVID-19 emergency forced cities worldwide to adopt measures to restrict travel and implement new urban public transport solutions. The discontinuity and reduction of services made users recognize public transport systems as contamination vectors, and the decrease in the number of passengers can already be seen in several places. Countermeasures that reduce the contact with other passengers—directly (limit the number of passengers in vehicles) or indirectly (operate with large vehicles)—and increase offers are possible solutions to make users feel safe while riding.

Sandcastle
Sandcastle is a documentation generator from Microsoft. It automatically produces MSDN-style code documentation out of reflection information of .NET assemblies and XML documentation comments found in the source code of these assemblies. It can also be used to produce user documentation from Microsoft Assistance Markup Language (MAML) with the same look and feel as reference documentation.

Reactive Transport Modeling in Porous Media
Reactive transport modeling in porous media refers to the creation of computer models integrating chemical reaction with transport of fluids through the Earth's crust. Such models predict the distribution in space and time of the chemical reactions that occur along a flowpath. Reactive transport modeling in general can refer to many other processes, including reactive flow of chemicals through tanks, reactors, or membranes; particles and species in the atmosphere; gases exiting a smokestack; and migrating magma.
