Specific emitter identification (SEI) is a potential physical layer authentication technology, which is one of the most critical complements of upper layer authentication. Radio frequency fingerprint (RFF)-based SEI is to distinguish one emitter from each other by immutable RF characteristics from electronic components. Due to the powerful ability of deep learning (DL) to extract hidden features and perform classification, it can extract highly separative features from massive signal samples, thus enabling SEI. Considering the condition of limited training samples, we propose a novel few-shot SEI (FS-SEI) method based on hybrid data augmentation and deep metric learning (HDA-DML) which gets rid of the dependence on auxiliary datasets. Specifically, HDA consisting rotation and CutMix is designed to increase data diversity, and DML is used to extract high discriminative semantic features. The proposed HDA-DML-based FS-SEI method is evaluated on an open source large-scale real-world automatic-dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B) dataset and a real-world WiFi dataset. The simulation results of two datasets show that the proposed method achieves better identification performance and higher feature discriminability than five latest FS-SEI methods.

Rogue emitter detection (RED) is a crucial technique to maintain secure internet of things applications. Existing deep learning-based RED methods have been proposed under friendly environments. However, these methods perform unstably under low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) scenarios. To address this problem, we propose a robust RED method, which is a hybrid network of denoising autoencoder and deep metric learning (DML). Specifically, denoising autoencoder is adopted to mitigate noise interference and then improve its robustness under low SNR while DML plays an important role to improve the feature discrimination. Several typical experiments are conducted to evaluate the proposed RED method on an automatic dependent surveillance-Broadcast dataset and an IEEE 802.11 dataset and also to compare it with existing RED methods. Simulation results show that the proposed method achieves better RED performance and higher noise robustness with more discriminative semantic vectors than existing methods.

The research was conducted on a sample of athletes aged 13-15 from BiH, namely 60 athletes and 60 karate players. The participants were divided into groups consisting of 30 athletes and karate athletes. Experimental groups of athletes, in addition to regular training operators, had additional operators, while the control group of athletes and the control group of karate players performed the training process by practicing regular kinesiological operators. A set of nine variables was used to evaluate the speed properties of the investigated sample of athletes. The assessment of segmental velocity was carried out with three common variables, speed in athletes with three variables characteristic of speed assessment for athletes and speed in karate players with three variables specific to the assessment of speed in karate players. Therefore, the main objective of this research is to determine the effects of the application of additional training operators on the rapid properties of athletes in sports of monostructural and polystructural type. The program of additional kinesiology operators was implemented within five training units during the weekly microcycle. The treated speed properties of athletes in a period of six months, which in addition to the basic program include the program of additional training operators, progressed significantly faster and better within the experimental treatment. Also, positive effects were achieved by applying the basic program in the control sample, but on a somewhat smaller scale. From a kinesiological- methodical point of view, the applied experimental treatment indicates the fact that it has largely contributed to positive effects in the experimental group of athletes in relation to the control group. It is also evident that in both groups of karate players there are positive changes in velocity properties. However, the experimental group sees a significantly better transformation of certain anthropological features compared to the control group. These facts suggest that the application of additional kinesiological operators in the experimental group produced greater effects on the development of rapid properties in the experimental karate team compared to the control group. Keywords: Effects, kinesiological operators, speed properties, athletes.

The decision of the citation database to include or not include a journal is not subject to the control of another entity, or the professional public, and there are no internationally established ethical standards that the citation database would have to apply. As a consequence of the absence of control, the already mentioned offensive reviews and arbitrary interpretation of the criteria for journal inclusion appear. Given that a journal’s entry into the citation database is a condition for its long-term survival, people who make decisions in the citation databases gain the power to shut down or revive certain journals based on personal preferences. Any power that is not controlled is eventually abused. Therefore, our proposal is to urgently establish the principles of ethical behavior of citation databases at the global level and find ways to ensure compliance with such principles.

Abstract Aware of the danger that the risk of money laundering and terroist financing has on the whole society, and with the aim of increasing awareness of the effective fight against the same risk in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH), the paper deals with the research of mechanisms for managing the risk of money laundering and terrorist financing activities. The research of this work will be focused on determining the degree of application of the requirements of the legislative and institutional framework for the fight against money laundering and terrorist financing by those obliged to apply law. Also, the paper points to the cooperation of state institutions with entities of the BiH, and examines the degree of compliance of the BiH system with international standards related to the fight against money laundering and terrorist financing. In order to assess the management of this risk as efficiently as possible, the paper will cover financial and non-financial money transfer systems, and indicate the level of measures taken in this fight by the competent institutions. For the purposes of research in the paper, the data published by the competent institutions through their reports/publications will be used, with a special focus on the data published by the Banking Agency of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina as the legal entity that reported the largest number of suspicious transactions in the analyzed period. The results of the research indicate that there is no concern regarding the management of the risks of money laundering and terrorist financing in BiH, and that the risk can be quantified in the category of moderate risk.

Man consists of different abilities and traits. The degree of development and the level of achievement, as well as their mutual relationship, are different from person to person. Morphological characteristics are the characteristics responsible for the dynamics of growth and development, as well as for the characteristics of the body structure. Motor abilities are features that participate in solving motor tasks and that can be developed to a greater extent. We will find out the difference in these abilities between students active in football and physically inactive students through the results of this master's thesis. The goal of the research is to determine the differences between students who are actively engaged in football and those students who are not active in sports. The research was conducted on 52 subjects, students of an elementary school. Keywords: Motor abilities, elementary school, students

Abstract Phase unbalance is a common issue encountered in LV electricity distribution networks, caused by uneven allocation of single-phase loads among phases. This paper analyses a part of a real LV distribution network, situated in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The impact of single-phase customers and single-phase charging of electric vehicles was analysed. To reduce unbalance and improve the voltage profiles, Phase Balance Optimization in DIgSILENT PowerFactory software was performed in six scenarios with different customer and electric vehicle unbalance. The goal was to find a method with the least number of changes in the customer and electric vehicle phase connection that fits within defined limits of voltage variations and voltage unbalance of a European norm for power quality (EN 50160). Results showed that all analysed scenarios were improved, with reference to voltage variation and voltage unbalance values, and were found acceptable by the limits from standard EN 50160.

Abstract In the past couple of years, the integration of electrical vehicles (EV) in the power system has been capturing the attention of many researchers, which has led to this being a frequently analysed topic in scientific papers and seminars. Some of the main parameters related to power quality that are observed, while integrating EVs, are voltage variations and voltage unbalance. The low-voltage rural network, of a small settlement located on the outskirts of Zavidovici, has been modelled for the purpose of this paper. Several cases were considered. As the first base case, an analysis was performed when there were no connected vehicles in the network, then the case with 20% penetration, 35% penetration, and 80% vehicle penetration. Practical analysis was done in DIgSILENT Power Factory software. It has been concluded that electrical vehicles cause a voltage drop in the network, while at the same time causing an increase in voltage unbalances.

Low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (SIL) is a cytologic diagnosis etiologically related to human papilloma virus (HPV) infection that leads to the release of inflammation mediators, the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and decreased levels of antioxidants in tissues, which is why antioxidants might be considered effective against SIL progression. This randomized double-blind placebo-controlled study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) supplementation (600 mg/day) on the regression of low-grade SIL in 100 patients. Low-grade SIL was determined after the cytological screening, colposcopic examination and targeted biopsy and histological confirmation of cytological–colposcopic diagnosis. Inflammation parameters and the presence of HPV were determined by standard laboratory methods. Dietary and lifestyle habits were investigated using a standardized and validated semi-quantitative food questionnaire (FFQ). ALA supplementation significantly reduced the proportion of patients with low-grade cytological abnormalities, in comparison to placebo. Given the obtained level of significance (p < 0.001), the presented results indicate that short-term ALA supplementation shows a clinically significant effect on cervical cytology. Future studies should focus on the use of innovative formulations of ALA that might induce bioavailability and therapeutic efficiency against HPV infection and the investigation of synergistic effects of concurrent dietary/lifestyle modification and ALA supplementation in both low-grade and high-grade SIL.
