For the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study 2015 (GBD 2015), we estimated the incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability for diseases and injuries at the global, regional, and national scale over the period of 1990 to 2015. Methods We estimated incidence and prevalence by age, sex, cause, year, and geography with a wide range of updated and standardised analytical procedures. Improvements from GBD 2013 included the addition of new data sources, updates to literature reviews for 85 causes, and the identification and inclusion of additional studies published up to November, 2015, to expand the database used for estimation of non-fatal outcomes to 60 900 unique data sources. Prevalence and incidence by cause and sequelae were determined with DisMod-MR 2.1, an improved version of the DisMod-MR Bayesian meta-regression tool first developed for GBD 2010 and GBD 2013. For some causes, we used alternative modelling strategies where the complexity of the disease was not suited to DisMod-MR 2.1 or where incidence and prevalence needed to be determined from other data. For GBD 2015 we created a summary indicator that combines measures of income per capita, educational attainment, and fertility (the Socio-demographic Index [SDI]) and used it to compare observed patterns of health loss to the expected pattern for countries or locations with similar SDI scores. Findings We generated 9·3 billion estimates from the various combinations of prevalence, incidence, and YLDs for causes, sequelae, and impairments by age, sex, geography, and year. In 2015, two causes had acute incidences in excess of 1 billion: upper respiratory infections (17·2 billion, 95% uncertainty interval [UI] 15·4–19·2 billion) and diarrhoeal diseases (2·39 billion, 2·30–2·50 billion). Eight causes of chronic disease and injury each affected more than 10% of the world's population in 2015: permanent caries, tension-type headache, iron-deficiency anaemia, age-related and other hearing loss, migraine, genital herpes, refraction and accommodation disorders, and ascariasis. The impairment that affected the greatest number of people in 2015 was anaemia, with 2·36 billion (2·35–2·37 billion) individuals affected. The second and third leading impairments by number of individuals affected were hearing loss and vision loss, respectively. Between 2005 and 2015, there was little change in the leading causes of years lived with disability (YLDs) on a global basis. NCDs accounted for 18 of the leading 20 causes of age-standardised YLDs on a global scale. Where rates were decreasing, the rate of decrease for YLDs was slower than that of years of life lost (YLLs) for nearly every cause included in our analysis. For low SDI geographies, Group 1 causes typically accounted for 20–30% of total disability, largely attributable to nutritional deficiencies, malaria, neglected tropical diseases, HIV/AIDS, and tuberculosis. Lower back and neck pain was the leading global cause of disability in 2015 in most countries. The leading cause was sense organ disorders in 22 countries in Asia and Africa and one in central Latin America; diabetes in four countries in Oceania; HIV/AIDS in three southern sub-Saharan African countries; collective violence and legal intervention in two north African and Middle Eastern countries; iron-deficiency anaemia in Somalia and Venezuela; depression in Uganda; onchoceriasis in Liberia; and other neglected tropical diseases in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Interpretation Ageing of the world's population is increasing the number of people living with sequelae of diseases and injuries. Shifts in the epidemiological profile driven by socioeconomic change also contribute to the continued increase in years lived with disability (YLDs) as well as the rate of increase in YLDs. Despite limitations imposed by gaps in data availability and the variable quality of the data available, the standardised and comprehensive approach of the GBD study provides opportunities to examine broad trends, compare those trends between countries or subnational geographies, benchmark against locations at similar stages of development, and gauge the strength or weakness of the estimates available.

Our segmentation is controllable through a few user-annotated in-the-wild images, which are easier to collect than multi-view images, less demanding to annotate than 3D models, and more precise than potentially ambiguous text descriptions. Our method leverages the rich priors of text-to-image diffusion models, such as Stable Diffusion (SD), to transfer segmentations from image space to 3D, even when the annotated and target objects differ significantly in geometry or structure. During training, we optimize a text token for each segment and fine-tune our model with a novel cross-view part correspondence loss. At inference, we segment multi-view renderings of the 3D mesh, fuse the labels in UV-space via voting, refine them with our novel Noise Optimization technique, and finally map the UV-labels back onto the mesh. ASIA provides a practical and generalizable solution for both semantic and non-semantic 3D segmentation tasks, outperforming existing methods by a noticeable margin in both quantitative and qualitative evaluations.","source":"arXiv","year":2025,"language":"en","subjects":["cs.CV"],"doi":"10.1145/3757377.3763821","url":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2509.24288","pdf_url":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2509.24288","is_open_access":true,"published_at":"2025-09-29T05:04:11Z","score":69},{"id":"arxiv_2503.20212","title":"Dolphin: A Large-Scale Automatic Speech Recognition Model for Eastern Languages","authors":[{"name":"Yangyang Meng"},{"name":"Jinpeng Li"},{"name":"Guodong Lin"},{"name":"Yu Pu"},{"name":"Guanbo Wang"},{"name":"Hu Du"},{"name":"Zhiming Shao"},{"name":"Yukai Huang"},{"name":"Ke Li"},{"name":"Wei-Qiang Zhang"}],"abstract":"This report introduces Dolphin, a large-scale multilingual automatic speech recognition (ASR) model that extends the Whisper architecture to support a wider range of languages.

Inspired by Maria Ascher's two well-known papers on sand drawings in Oceania and Africa, this paper focuses on the strong link between modern mathematics and the mathematics behind the sand drawings. Beginning with a comparison of the geography, history, and the cultural context of sand drawings in Oceania and Africa, we will examine shared geometric features of European graph theory and Indigenous sand drawings, including continuity, cyclicity, and symmetry. The paper will also delve into the origin of graph theory, exploring whether the famous European mathematician Leonhard Euler, who published his solution to the Konigsberg bridge problem in 1736, was the true inventor of graph theory. The potential for incorporating sand drawings into the school curriculum is highlighted at the end.

Our results confirm the presence of sexist and homophobic bias in Southeast Asian PLMs. Interpretability and semantic analyses also reveal that PLM bias is strongly induced by words relating to crime, intimate relationships, and helping among other discursive categories, suggesting that these are topics where PLMs strongly reproduce bias from pretraining data and where PLMs should be used with more caution.","source":"arXiv","year":2024,"language":"en","subjects":["cs.CL"],"url":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.15464","pdf_url":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2410.15464","is_open_access":true,"published_at":"2024-10-20T18:31:05Z","score":68},{"id":"arxiv_2405.09216","title":"The Genomic Landscape of Oceania","authors":[{"name":"Consuelo D.

Here we describe the first region-wide analysis of genome-wide data from population groups spanning Oceania and its surroundings, from island and peninsular southeast Asia to Papua New Guinea, east across the Pacific through Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia, and west across the Indian Ocean to related island populations in the Andamans and Madagascar. In total we generate and analyze genome-wide data from 981 individuals from 92 different populations, 58 separate islands, and 30 countries, representing the most expansive study of Pacific genetics to date. In each sample we disentangle the Papuan and more recent Austronesian ancestries, which have admixed in various proportions across this region, using ancestry-specific analyses, and characterize the distinct patterns of settlement, migration, and archaic introgression separately in these two ancestries. We also focus on the patterns of clinically relevant genetic variation across Oceania--a landscape rippled with strong founder effects and island-specific genetic drift in allele frequencies--providing an atlas for the development of precision genetic health strategies in this understudied region of the world.","source":"arXiv","year":2024,"language":"en","subjects":["q-bio.PE"],"url":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2405.09216","pdf_url":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2405.09216","is_open_access":true,"published_at":"2024-05-15T09:50:43Z","score":68},{"id":"arxiv_2401.07815","title":"Anti-Context-Free languages","authors":[{"name":"Carles Cardó"}],"abstract":"Context-free languages can be characterized in several ways. This article studies projective linearisations of languages of simple dependency trees, i.e., dependency trees in which a node can govern at most one node with a given syntactic function. We prove that the projective linearisations of local languages of simple dependency trees coincide with the context-free languages.   Simple dependency trees suggest alternative dual notions of locality and projectivity, which permits defining a dual language for each context-free language. We call this new class of languages anti-context-free. These languages are related to some linguistic constructions exhibiting the so-called cross-serial dependencies that were historically important for the development of computational linguistics. We propose that this duality could be a relevant linguistic phenomenon.","source":"arXiv","year":2024,"language":"en","subjects":["cs.FL"],"url":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2401.07815","pdf_url":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2401.07815","is_open_access":true,"published_at":"2024-01-15T16:38:44Z","score":68},{"id":"arxiv_2412.04111","title":"Adult Glioma Segmentation in Sub-Saharan Africa using Transfer Learning on Stratified Finetuning Data","authors":[{"name":"Abhijeet Parida"},{"name":"Daniel Capellán-Martín"},{"name":"Zhifan Jiang"},{"name":"Austin Tapp"},{"name":"Xinyang Liu"},{"name":"Syed Muhammad Anwar"},{"name":"María J.

This paper introduces a novel approach to glioma segmentation using transfer learning to address challenges in resource-limited regions with minimal and low-quality MRI data. We leverage pre-trained deep learning models, nnU-Net and MedNeXt, and apply a stratified fine-tuning strategy using the BraTS2023-Adult-Glioma and BraTS-Africa datasets. Our method exploits radiomic analysis to create stratified training folds, model training on a large brain tumor dataset, and transfer learning to the Sub-Saharan context. A weighted model ensembling strategy and adaptive post-processing are employed to enhance segmentation accuracy. The evaluation of our proposed method on unseen validation cases on the BraTS-Africa 2024 task resulted in lesion-wise mean Dice scores of 0.870, 0.865, and 0.926, for enhancing tumor, tumor core, and whole tumor regions and was ranked first for the challenge. Our approach highlights the ability of integrated machine-learning techniques to bridge the gap between the medical imaging capabilities of resource-limited countries and established developed regions. By tailoring our methods to a target population's specific needs and constraints, we aim to enhance diagnostic capabilities in isolated environments. Our findings underscore the importance of approaches like local data integration and stratification refinement to address healthcare disparities, ensure practical applicability, and enhance impact.

In isiZulu, demonstratives tend to also denote specificity, a function normally performed by the definite article in English. This article, therefore, compares the functions of articles in English to those of demonstratives in isiZulu, with the aim to demonstrate the similarities in terms of use between the two languages. This added function of demonstratives, it is argued, may account for some of the errors in English second language learners’ use of articles, as evidenced by data from written exercises of learners whose first language is isiZulu. The findings suggest that second language learners of English tend to confuse articles because of the differences between the two languages, especially during their (learners’) interlanguage stage.\n\nContribution: The article highlights a significant difference in the use of demonstratives between English and isiZulu due to the added function of specificity in isiZulu demonstrative (isabizwana sokukhomba) which is performed by the definite article in English. It also demonstrates how, without an article system, isiZulu can convey meaning like any language with an article system.","source":"DOAJ","year":2022,"language":"","subjects":["African languages and literature"],"doi":"10.4102/lit.v43i1.1863","url":"https://literator.org.za/index.php/literator/article/view/1863","is_open_access":true,"published_at":"","score":66},{"id":"doaj_10.4102/lit.v43i1.1723","title":"Some reflections on selected themes in Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s fiction and her feminist manifesto","authors":[{"name":"Moffat Sebola"}],"abstract":"Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s fiction, namely, Purple Hibiscus, Half of a Yellow Sun, Americanah and The Thing Around Your Neck generally reflects an intersection of black women’s experiences in a variety of contexts. In Adichie’s fiction, motifs that feature in the domain of identity politics and gender discourse are brought into critical focus. Among these motifs are appraisals of African names, stereotyping complexions, racialisations of hair and other themes such as the commodification of the female body. In Adichie’s fiction, these aspects are thematised as key features of black women’s identity and therefore worth considering in identity politics and gender discourse. In this article, Adichie’s Dear Ijeawele or A Feminist Manifesto in Fifteen Suggestions is relied upon as a summary of her authorial vision, ideology and feminist outlook. This article appreciates how Adichie seeks to reposition postcolonial hermeneutics on black women’s identity by bringing to light some challenges that are faced by these women in her fiction. Adichie’s fiction is appraised for its aim to widen the contemporary African critique-scape on racial, gender and identity issues.","source":"DOAJ","year":2022,"language":"","subjects":["African languages and literature"],"doi":"10.4102/lit.v43i1.1723","url":"https://literator.org.za/index.php/literator/article/view/1723","is_open_access":true,"published_at":"","score":66},{"id":"doaj_10.22034/perlit.2022.47418.3138","title":"بازنمایی عدم قطعیت در رمان دیلمزاد اثر محمّد رودگر","authors":[{"name":"آرزو پوریزدان پناه کرمانی"}],"abstract":"یکی از موضوعات مهم زندگی بشر امروز و به تبع آن یکی از مهم‌ترین مختصّات پسامدرنیسم، عدم قطعیت است. نفوذ این اصل به حوزة ادبیّات و تأثیرپذیری رمان از آن سبب جذّابیت هرچه بیشتر رمان‌های مدرن و پست‌مدرن برای خواننده و مشارکت هرچه بیشتر خواننده در خوانش رمان شده‌است. رمان «دیلمزاد» اثر محمّد رودگر یکی از رمان‌های برگزیدة دفاع مقدّس است که در آن از عوامل گوناگونی برای ایجاد تشکیک و عدم قطعیت بهره‌گرفته شده‌است و ساخت‌مایة اصلی آن را عدم قطعیت تشکیل می‌دهد.در جستار حاضر، جلوه‌های متفاوت عدم قطعیت در رمان «دیلمزاد» با روش توصیفی ـ تحلیلی بررسی و از این رهگذر تمهیدات نویسنده برای ایجاد عدم قطعیت و قراردادن خواننده در مرز باور و ناباوری تحلیل شده‌است. یافته‌های تحقیق حکایت از آن دارد که در این رمان، عدم قطعیت در سطوح زبانی، روایت، شخصیّت‌پردازی، زاویة دید و زمان و مکان داستان نمود یافته و از این میان، در سطح زبانی رمان از برجستگی خاصّی برخوردار است. همچنین نویسنده با داستانی‌کردن واقعیت و آمیختن خیال و واقعیت به همراه بی‌توجّهی به رابطة علّت و معلولی در داستان، بر تشکیک مخاطب و عدم قطعیت داستان افزوده است.","source":"DOAJ","year":2022,"language":"","subjects":["Indo-Iranian languages and literature","Languages and literature of Eastern Asia, Africa, Oceania"],"doi":"10.22034/perlit.2022.47418.3138","url":"https://perlit.tabrizu.ac.ir/article_15204_bb46cac438e5b58e98934eb85333a8d3.pdf","pdf_url":"https://perlit.tabrizu.ac.ir/article_15204_bb46cac438e5b58e98934eb85333a8d3.pdf","is_open_access":true,"published_at":"","score":66},{"id":"arxiv_2211.09554","title":"Systematic Literature Review of Gender and Software Engineering in Asia","authors":[{"name":"Hironori Washizaki"}],"abstract":"It is essential to discuss the role, difficulties, and opportunities concerning people of different gender in the field of software engineering research, education, and industry.

Although the wide socio-economic gap between the rich and the poor, high rate of unemployment, and governance deficit are blamed for rising insecurity, analysts often neglect the role of the built environment. Informal housing and unplanned neighborhoods are often stigmatized as spaces of crime in the global South. Drawing from the conceptual framework of permeability and crime prevention through environmental design (CPTED), we investigate the vulnerability of residential neighborhoods to security threats in Benin City. Vulnerability was interrogated at two levels. At the neighborhood level, our findings showed that environmental risk factors associated with informal housing and incremental development render the neighborhoods permeable and limit crime policing. At the residential level, our findings revealed that inappropriate target hardening limits natural surveillance and communal use of outhouse facilities renders homes indefensible. Situational crimes such as burglary and robbery are high in the absence of regular police patrols and neighborhood watch. Conclusions point to the need to incorporate informal housing and environmental risk factors into CPTED literature in the context of the cities in the global South, establishment of neighborhood or community policing to partner with the Nigerian police in crime fighting, and settlement upgrading to enhance natural surveillance, police patrol and rapid response to distress calls in the event of criminal attacks.","source":"DOAJ","year":2021,"language":"","subjects":["History of Africa","African languages and literature"],"url":"https://journals.flvc.org/ASQ/article/view/135971","is_open_access":true,"published_at":"","score":65},{"id":"doaj_10.29408/sbs.v4i2.3766","title":"IMPLEMENTATION OF CHARACTER-BASED LISTENING SKILLS THROUGH INDONESIAN LANGUAGE LEARNING","authors":[{"name":"Ryan Eka Rahmawati"},{"name":"Nurul Awaliyah Mukhlis"},{"name":"Ida Laila"}],"abstract":"\nArtikel ini membahas Penerapan Pembelajaran Mendengarkan Berbasis Karakter di Pondok Pesantren Kelas IV MI Unggulan Roudlotul Ulum Pilang Sidoarjo (Pra-Covid-19 dan Selama Pandemi Covid-19).
