102. Scoping review on the multimodal classification of depression and experimental study on existing multimodal modelsUmut Arioz, Urška Smrke, Nejc Plohl, Izidor Mlakar, 2022, pregledni znanstveni članek Opis: Depression is a prevalent comorbidity in patients with severe physical disorders, such as cancer, stroke, and coronary diseases. Although it can significantly impact the course of the primary disease, the signs of depression are often underestimated and overlooked. The aim of this paper was to review algorithms for the automatic, uniform, and multimodal classification of signs of depression from human conversations and to evaluate their accuracy. For the scoping review, the PRISMA guidelines for scoping reviews were followed. In the scoping review, the search yielded 1095 papers, out of which 20 papers (8.26%) included more than two modalities, and 3 of those papers provided codes. Within the scope of this review, supported vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), and long short-term memory network (LSTM; with gated and non-gated recurrent units) models, as well as different combinations of features, were identified as the most widely researched techniques. We tested the models using the DAIC-WOZ dataset (original training dataset) and using the SymptomMedia dataset to further assess their reliability and dependency on the nature of the training datasets. The best performance was obtained by the LSTM with gated recurrent units (F1-score of 0.64 for the DAIC-WOZ dataset). However, with a drop to an F1-score of 0.56 for the SymptomMedia dataset, the method also appears to be the most data-dependent.

106. FDI and economic growth : a new look from the sectoral perspectiveVladimir Šimić, Lena Malešević-Perović, 2022, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: This paper investigates the impact of foreign direct investment (FDI) on
economic growth in a sample of 10 ex-socialist European and Asian countries.
While the link between FDI and economic growth has been extensively
investigated in empirical literature, this paper contributes to this literature
by econometrically investigating the effects of FDI inflows in specific sectors
using the panel data estimation techniques. In addition to confirming the
positive impact of total FDI inflows on economic growth, using the WiiW
(the Vienna Institute for International Economic Studies) FDI database,
which disentangles the FDI data across different industries, the paper finds
significant effects of FDI inflows in manufacturing on growth, whereas FDI
inflows in other sectors are only sporadically statistically significant. This
finding serves as a basis for further investigation of the specific subsectors
(NACE 2-letter classification) within manufacturing, and the empirical
investigation finds that not all FDI inflows within manufacturing enhance
economic growth. Ključne besede: FDI, economic growth, sectoral data, manufacturing Objavljeno v DKUM: 19.06.2023; Ogledov: 435; Prenosov: 8

109. Application of normalization method to fracture toughness testing of welds with pronounced strength heterogeneity : doctoral disertationPrimož Štefane, 2022, doktorska disertacija Opis: This doctoral dissertation presents the results of an extensive fracture testing programme of
welds with pronounced strength heterogeneity. Purpose of this programme was to determine
fracture toughness of heterogeneous welds that contain a midplane crack. Application of
standardized fracture testing methods in heterogeneous welds might lead to overestimation or
underestimation of fracture toughness and consequentially to inaccurate assessment of
structural integrity. Reasons for that are variations in mechanical properties of different
material regions in the weld which have a significant impact on development of deformation at
the crack tip, and consequently on the crack driving force. Experimental procedures in scope
of this research include fabrication of weld sample plates, that were welded with MAG process.
The welds were fabricated using two different electrodes, one with higher and one with lower
mechanical properties, with respect to base material S690QL in order to replicate extreme
variations of mechanical properties in the weldment. Fabricated welds were then characterized
in detail using metallography, three-point bend impact testing, indentation hardness
measurements and tensile testing of flat miniature and round bar standard tensile specimens.
Resistance of welds to stable tearing was investigated by fracture testing of square surface
cracked SE(B) specimens containing a weld midplane notch. J-integral has been estimated from
plastic work, using the normalization data reduction method that is included in standard ASTM
E1820. The advantage of the normalization data reduction method is that no special equipment
or complex testing method is needed to measure ductile crack growth during fracture testing.
The ductile crack growth is determined directly from the load-displacement record, by applying
appropriate calibration function and physical lengths of initial and final cracks that were
measured post-mortem with the nine-point method. Several correction factors had to be
calibrated in order to successfully implement the normalization data reduction method to
fracture testing of welds with pronounced strength heterogeneity. For that reason, parametric
finite element analyses were conducted for several weld configurations. Finite element models
incorporated plane strain conditions in order to provide calibrated factors that comply with
plane strain equations included in ASTM E1820. Additionally, crack tip constraint has been
extensively analysed and correlated with the plastic deformation fields. This clarified altered
deformation behaviour of modelled welds in comparison with the base material and
corresponding effect on fracture toughness. Finally, calibrated factors were applied to
computation of J-integral from data that were measured during fracture testing. J-R resistance
curves were constructed for the tested heterogeneous welds and compared to the ones of the
base material. This directly showed the effect of variations of mechanical properties on the
weld fracture behaviour. Ključne besede: weld, strength mismatch, fracture, normalization data reduction technique, plastic
