As part of “intelligence,” the “awareness” is the state or ability to perceive, feel, or be mindful of events, objects, or sensory patterns: in other words, to be conscious of the surrounding environment and its interactions. Inspired by early-ages human skills developments and especially by early-ages awareness maturation, the present paper accosts the robots intelligence from a different slant directing the attention to combining both “cognitive” and “perceptual” abilities. Within such a slant, the machine (robot) shrewdness is constructed on the basis of a multilevel cognitive concept attempting to handle complex artificial behaviors. The intended complex behavior is the autonomous discovering of objects by robot exploring an unknown environment: in other words, proffering the robot autonomy and awareness in and about unknown backdrop.

The article analyzes the operation of one of the movements of the late Protestantism, Seventh-day Adventist community in Transcarpathia, in terms of anti-religious policies of Nikita Khrushchev (1953–1964). Additionally, it clarifies the main aspects of the relationship between Adventist communities and the Soviet authorities. It shows that there were 10 registered communities and 8 unregistered groups in the study period in Transcarpathia. This research includes a wide range of sources from the state and church archives. Moreover, it contains a survey of believers of this denomination. Critical analysis of these sources in combination with modern research on the topic made it possible to reveal new aspects of the past of the Adventist community in Transcarpathia, to clarify statistics, to personalize the composition of church ministers as well as some of its members. With Khrushchev’s coming to power, the Adventist community in the region, like all denominations in the USSR, felt a significant deterioration in the religious situation. The negative attitude of some part of society and the authorities to such a policy influenced the suspension of its active phase and contributed to a certain facilitation and normalization of religious life, which was observed in the mid-1950s. Later Adventist communities experienced crises related to the liquidation of the All-Union Seventh-day Adventist Spiritual Center and the internal division of the community due to government interference in its activity. In the development of the Adventist community in Transcarpathia, it was possible to highlight some of its features, which allowed to save the community from significant power influences and destruction. These include the deep historical religiosity of the local population, their cultural and historical tradition as well as mentality. The combination of the above-mentioned factors forced the authorities to act quite cautiously in the area of religious restrictions. During that period the Transcarpathian Adventist community managed to overcome the negative occurrences and slowly develop, maintaining internal and doctrinal unity in balancing relations with the state.

The emergence of the Finnish White movement in Petrograd has hardly been studied by historians. Nevertheless, during the Civil War in Finland (January — May 1918), the “Finnish Whites” organized quite effective support for the “White Finland” from Petrograd. For the army of C. G. E. Mannerheim the “White Finns” organized the transfer of volunteers across the border. About ten group crossings of the state border were carried out. They also delivered weapons to the White Army. Terrorist activities were also organized on Soviet territory. For this purpose, a Special Petrograd company was organized from the Finns. The Finnish White movement in Petrograd completed its most active phase of the struggle only with the suppression of the revolution in Finland and the beginning of the Red Terror in Russia.

In fact, bineka tunggal ika is a form of pluralism in one culture, ethnicity, religion, and others in one place, namely the state with Pancasila principles and the 1945 Constitution. Whereas the principle of legal pluralism is a situation where one or more legal systems apply at a time and place the same one. The purpose of this paper is to explain how the synergy of the single eka bineka principle with the principle of legal pluralism. The single unity principle that is manifested in the life of nation and state, one form of its implementation is explained in the Indonesian archipelago, a way of looking at the Indonesian people about themselves and their surrounding environment based on national ideas based on Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution. Using the basis of Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution as part of legal sources. Thus it can be concluded that there is a synergy between the single bineka ika principle and the principle of legal pluralism in the basic model of the Indonesian unitary republic which lies in the source of all sources of law, namely Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution.

The current vector of Ukraine's development is the Eurointegration course, which requires the transformation of domestic systems of national economy management, including such a key part of the system as education. The European educational space is characterized by common features that, in general, are unified in most of the bloc countries. Despite this, national education systems have retained their peculiarities in the course of the formation and transition to European values. In particular, the experience of individual countries such as Poland, Slovenia and the Czech Republic, which have common features with Ukraine in geographical, historical, cultural and other dimensions, is important enough to determine the general vectors to develop the national system of state regulation of education, which is in the active phase of reformation. In the article, the author considers the peculiarities of educational systems and their state regulation in the following countries of Central and Eastern Europe: Poland, Slovenia and the Czech Republic, which have common features with Ukraine and can serve as guidelines for its transformation. The study revealed the following common features that are inherent in the state regulation of education: decentralization in the management and regulation of education, the provision of significant autonomy to educational institutions, the development of lifelong learning and its support at the state level, and the establishment of a wide network of public-private partnerships. In this regard, the main models of decentralization of education management, which are widespread in the world, were investigated, including decentralization with a dominant position of the bodies of local self-government and with strong autonomy of schools. Ukraine belongs to the first model, which has a number of features that were studied by the author. As a result, the need for further reform of the educational sector, which can be based on the experience of Central and Eastern Europe analyzed in the article, is indicated. Key words: state regulation of education, a branch of education, European experience, decentralization, education reform.

Various sources confirm that a human and the land have been connected through an exceptional link. However, an idealistic image of land has been getting weaker and a present individual has felt a changed connection with the land. The land is not the sole source of livelihood for people any more and its association with pagan rituals, deities and nature has become less and less frequent. The more formal understanding of land (earth) as a planet has prevailed in Lithuanian lexicography, whereas in other sources the land is associated only with hard work. The very concept of land is broad and complex, therefore, it is important to analyse the image that emerges at a subliminal level in the head of a Lithuanian, while he/she is thinking about the land. The whole concept LAND is analysed implementing the project “Bread. Land. Mother” financed by the State Commission of the Lithuanian Language (2018–2020). This article presents the lexicographic analysis and the data of students’ survey. The analysis of questionnaire revealed an obvious fact that the image of land is perceived by every individual in accordance with influence of the surrounding environment and the worldview constructed by an individual himself or herself. The concept is broad and every individual may have a significantly different understanding of it. Some people see it only as a physical plane, whereas others feel the link with land at a spiritual level because it is home or even more than this.

Rapid globalization and the interdependence of the countries have engendered tremendous in-flow of human migration towards the urban spaces. With the advent of high definition satellite images, high-resolution data, computational methods such as deep neural network analysis, and hardware capable of high-speed analysis; urban planning is seeing a paradigm shift. Legacy data on urban environments are now being complemented with high-volume, high-frequency data. However, the first step of understanding the urban area lies in the useful classification of the urban environment that is usable for data collection, analysis, and visualization. In this paper, we propose a novel classification method that is readily usable for machine analysis and it shows the applicability of the methodology in a developing world setting. However, the state-of-the-art is mostly dominated by the classification of building structures, building types, etc., and largely represents the developed world. Hence, these methods and models are not sufficient for developing countries such as Bangladesh where the surrounding environment is crucial for the classification. Moreover, the traditional classifications propose small-scale classifications, which give limited information, have poor scalability and are slow to compute in real-time. We categorize the urban area in terms of informal and formal spaces and take the surrounding environment into account. 50 km × 50 km Google Earth image of Dhaka, Bangladesh was visually annotated and categorized by an expert and consequently, a map was drawn. The classification is based broadly on two dimensions the state of urbanization and the architectural form of the urban environment. Consequently, the urban space is divided into four classifications: 1) highly informal area 2) moderately informal area 3) moderately formal area and 4) highly formal area. For semantic segmentation and automatic classification, Google’s DeeplabV3+ model was used. The model uses the Atrous convolution operation to analyze different layers of texture and shape. This allows us to enlarge the field of view of the filters to incorporate a larger context. Image encompassing 70% of the urban space was used to train the model and the remaining 30% was used for testing and validation. The model can segment with 75% accuracy and 60% Mean Intersection over Union (mIoU).
