The paper presents a theoretical, analytical, and ethical examination of B&H political economy, Constitutional "protection of vital national interests," and its effects on human security socioeconomic conditions. The phenomenon of vital national interest and a theoretical and practical question focused on a constitutionally conditioned political point of view, not on economic, human security, legislative, peace & conflict dynamics, and normative framework. The paper argues that structurally manipulative and nepotistic ethnopolitical processes and the idiom "protection of vital national interests" demonstrate the institutionalization of post-war ethnoreligious conflict. It reduces the rule of law framework, the country's integrity, sociopolitical, economic, and critical human security progression. The ethnoreligious conflict of "vital national interest" undermines the country's economic system. The narrative of protecting "vital national interests" is the ethnopolitical elites' manipulative instrumentalization and interest that has risen above the state and used for personal objectives. In a "constitutively" manner, the ethnopolitical arrangement is reduced to a struggle over territory. It directly territorializes and divides B&H into ethnoreligious areas. Contemporary Machiavellians use intrigue and manipulation to gain or retain power. It has a character of more deceptive than violent behavior. The Balkan-B&H demonstrates Maciavelism more profoundly than Machiavelli's authentic perspective. constructive public administration. fundamental life how The paper presents a theoretical, analytical, and ethical examination of B&H (ethno)political economy, Constitutional "protection of vital national interests," and its effects on human security socioeconomic conditions. The position of political/economic nepotism, systemic corruption, and patronage on political economy in Western Balkans with a significant emphasis on Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H) and citizens' socioeconomics and human security are not in-depth researched. The phenomenon of vital national interest and a theoretical and practical question focused on a constitutionally conditioned political point of view, not on economic, human security, legislative, peace & conflict dynamics, and normative framework. The paper investigates the Constitutional framework (B&H and Entities) of ethnopolitical/ethnoreligious conflict of national interests, the rule of law, and its references to actual sociopolitics and economics. This paper argues that structurally manipulative and nepotistic ethnopolitical/ethnoreligious processes and the idiom "protection of vital national interests" demonstrate the institutionalization of post-war ethnoreligious conflict. It reduces the rule of law framework, the country's integrity, sociopolitical, economic, and critical human security progression. Moreover, examining these sociopolitical processes in the post-socialist Yugoslav countries aims to determine normative solutions - the example of B&H.

Real-time object detection is crucial for many applications of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) such as reconnaissance and surveillance, search-and-rescue, and infrastructure inspection. In the last few years, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have emerged as a powerful class of models for recognizing image content, and are widely considered in the computer vision community to be the de facto standard approach for most problems. However, object detection based on CNNs is extremely computationally demanding, typically requiring high-end Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) that require too much power and weight, especially for a lightweight and low-cost drone. In this paper, we propose moving the computation to an off-board computing cloud. We apply Regions with CNNs (R-CNNs), a state-of-the-art algorithm, to detect not one or two but hundreds of object types in near real-time.

We report two experimental studies of human perceptions of robotic facial expressions while systematically varying context effects and the cultural background of subjects (n = 93). Except for Fear, East Asian and Western subjects were not significantly different in recognition rates, and, while Westerners were better at judging affect from mouth movement alone, East Asians were not any better at judging affect based on eye/brow movement alone. Moreover, context effects appeared capable of over-riding such cultural differences, most notably for Fear. The results seem to run counter to previous theories of cultural differences in facial expression based on emoticons and eye fixation patterns. We connect this to broader research in cognitive science – suggesting the findings support a dynamical systems view of social cognition as an emergent phenomenon. The results here suggest that, if we can induce appropriate context effects, it may be possible to create culture-neutral models of robots and affective interaction.

Rural development policy deals with achieving goals for rural areas and a wide range of socioeconomic activities are included within it. This work intends to connect rural development policies with the occurrence of domestic violence in rural areas. The area of research is the territory of Tuzla Canton, which is, by definition of OECD (less than 150 habitants/km2), a predominantly rural area. Domestic violence is a wide spread form of violence and a discrimination against women. Domestic violence includes all forms of violence occurring in the family, expanding the possibilities that perpetrators of violence and victims of violence may even be persons who do not live in the family but are related to family members, e.g. former partners, relatives, etc. Research results show that victims of domestic violence are in 90% of the cases women (wives, mothers, daughters, sisters, etc.) and that domestic violence is constantly increasing each following year. All forms of violence over women come stem from a principal discrimination towards women which results in coerce or use of force. For that reason, violence over women is a manifestation of a fundamentally unequal position of women and men, and it represents a form of discrimination against women. This paper uses data acquired from Federal Office of Statistics of Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and statistical data from the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Tuzla Canton. On the basis of the gathered data, we employed the descriptive method, the method of analysis and synthesis, as well as the comparative method of analysis. The hypothesis of this paper was the assumption that “women in rural areas are more frequently victims of domestic violence than women living in urban areas“.

During blasting operations, the potential energy of explosive materials is transformed into a mechanical work. That energy, in the vicinity of blasting location, destructs and crushes rock mass, a bit further creates cracks and permanent deformations in the rock mass, and even further it is being transformed into elastic deformations. The effect of elastic seismic wave is movement of particles of the rock mass from its equilibrium position. Such oscillation of the rock mass particles is manifested as a shock and represents one of the negative effects of blasting. In order both to evaluate and control the seismic effect of blasting, as well as to plan it, the determination of soil oscillation law is required, with the strike: mine field - facilities to be protected. One of the most commonly used equations is that of M. A. Sadovski defining the law of alteration in the oscillation velocity of the soil depending on the distance, the explosive amount, and conditions of blasting and geologic characteristics of the soil, being determined on the basis of test blasting for the specific work environment. In this paper, an analysis of the method for the determination of soil oscillation law parameters has been conducted, suggested by Professor M. A. Sadovski. The applicability of this law was analyzed on examples of mass blasting in the 'Nepricava' Open Pit Mine being carried out in order to exploit the deposit. To determine parameters in the equation of Sadovski, in addition to the common method of least squares, another model was applied. Thereby, it has been stated that both models can be used to calculate the oscillation velocity of the rock mass.
