Artistic Image

This article is an attempt to prepare an image. But this time the image falls not into a plot (like a storyline) and composition, but into time and space. It has been repeatedly noted (especially it is subject to literary criticism) that the image (in this case an artistic image) builds its own space-time grid of coordinates, and therefore time and space can gallantly violate the laws of physics here. Also, one of the main obvious goals of this culturologicalinvestigation is a comparison of the methods and techniques of poetry and prose, a handholdof the specifics of time’s and space’s expression in verse and novelistics.This goal is realized by referring to the oeuvre of Nestor Pilyavsky. Nestor is a Russian writer and an author of the book "Western Liao". This work simultaneously demonstrates a phenomenon that can be called a mythologization of space, and also the structure of the book is distinguished by a combination of poetic components and prose narratives. In addition, the same theme slips in the reflections of the last great French novelist – Marcel Proust, who emphasizes the differences in the representation of the world that is performed by a poet or a novelist, concordantly. However, if Marcel Proust in the work “In Search of Lost Time" (as can be seen from the title of this epic work) was looking for time, then Nestor Pilyavsky in his book "Western Liao" is looking for space. He wants to return to some past, perhaps he wants to go home (and the name "Nestor" means "whoever that comes home"). Space-time problems erase the boundaries between conventional linear division into the past, the present and the future. It can be seen that a creative workdestroys this separation, the destruction of which is revealed most clearly in modern decadent movements. Decadence is a characteristic feature of any transitional, intermediate period when the balance of life is violated and when it is difficult to draw a dividing line between genius,brilliance, and insanity. Decadence is a period of time and a point in space when it is difficult to distinguishdreams and reality from each other. Nestor Pilyavsky calls himself a decadent not without good reason. But modernity, which turns out to be the destruction of the habitual norms of life, is often drawn by the emptiness of the imagination by nothing more than a new, cyclical decadence, and "Western Liao" is an excellent attempt to invent a new, suitable space.

The chronotope issue has been relevant in literary criticism for several decades. Furthermore, Plato argued that the essence of art is an imitation of real life. Aristotle pointed out that art creates its own world as something possible or probable and thereby reveals the essential properties of the real world. This article attempts to summarize the main research results on the problem of spatial images and the chronotope as a whole and thereby determine what is the specificity of the image of space, what is its role in a particular work. The purpose of the study is to establish the role of the chronotope in the recreation of the artistic image of Kazakhstan. In modern prose, chronotopic parameters are traced, the topography and symbolism of urban space are examined and its essential characteristics are given. In our opinion, the chronotope is an important modeling tool of literature. The appeal to this problem is due to the fact that the organization of the chronotope in the modern literature of Kazakhstan has become much more complicated in comparison with the traditional space-time paradigms. Anel Meken and Anastasia Skripnikova demonstrate their virtuoso «play with time and space». Time and space set the parameters of the artistic world of the work. Their relationship in prose reflects the structure of the author's consciousness, their worldview, and the system of philosophical ideas and, therefore, their interpretation is a search for means of expressing the author's idea. The study of the categories of time and space allows one to penetrate deeper into the «fabric» of a work of art, to reveal the specifics of its construction, to determine the concept of the writer's world. However, despite such different positions of researchers, controversy continues to this day in literary criticism.

Background : The day-ahead load forecasting is an essential guideline for power generating, and it is of considerable significance in power dispatch. Objective: Most of the existing load probability prediction methods use historical data to predict a single area, and rarely use the correlation of load time and space to improve the accuracy of load prediction. Methods: This paper presents a method for day-ahead load probability prediction based on space-time correction. Firstly, the kernel density estimation (KDE) is employed to model the prediction error of the long short-term memory (LSTM) model, and the residual distribution is obtained. Then the correlation value is used to modify the time and space dimensions of the test set's partial period prediction values. Results: The experiment selected three years of load data in 10 areas of a city in northern China. The MAPE of the two modified models on their respective test sets can be reduced by an average of 10.2% and 6.1% compared to previous results. The interval coverage of the probability prediction can be increased by an average of 4.2% and 1.8% than before. Conclusion: The test results show that the proposed correction schemes are feasible.

First Time

For the first time, an analytical review of all, without exception, censorship stories of N.V. Gogol’s works is presented. An objective picture of Gogol's relationship with the censorship is being recreated. The findings of the study allow, with good reason, to judge about the interference of censors in the writer's works in a fundamentally different way, in comparison with the ideas offered by literary criticism of the previous period without solid evidence. Based on a thorough analysis, involving numerous archival sources, the common, stereotypical opinions about the extremely negative role of censorship in Gogol’s fate are being revised. The most significant negative result among all censorship interventions in Gogol's works was the activity of the censor of Westernizing views, opposed to the government, a professor at St. Petersburg University, A.V. Nikitenko. It is the numerous reductions of Nikitenko, И.А. Виноградов. Произведения Н .В. Гоголя и цензура 255 a friend of V.G. Belinsky, in Gogol's religious and patriotic book “Selected Passages from Correspondence with Friends” that the writer called “censorship murder”. No less significant was the intervention of the liberal censor in the texts of “Dead Souls”, “Theatrical Travel after the Presentation of a New Comedy” and other works of the writer. It is concluded that, with the exception of this “intrigue” against Gogol by the censor Nikitenko, on the whole Gogol's texts encountered relatively insignificant difficulties in censorship.

Objects of more than three dimensions can be used to model geographic phenomena that occur in space, time and scale. For instance, a single 4D object can be used to represent the changes in a 3D object’s shape across time or all its optimal representations at various levels of detail. In this paper, we look at how such higher-dimensional space-time and space-scale objects can be visualised as projections from ℝ4to ℝ3. We present three projections that we believe are particularly intuitive for this purpose: (i) a simple ‘long axis’ projection that puts 3D objects side by side; (ii) the well-known orthographic and perspective projections; and (iii) a projection to a 3-sphere (S3) followed by a stereographic projection to ℝ3, which results in an inwards-outwards fourth axis. Our focus is in using these projections from ℝ4to ℝ3, but they are formulated from ℝnto ℝn−1so as to be easily extensible and to incorporate other non-spatial characteristics. We present a prototype interactive visualiser that applies these projections from 4D to 3D in real-time using the programmable pipeline and compute shaders of the Metal graphics API.
