The article is devoted to one of the problems of literary onomastics — an inventory of onomastic units of literary texts as an integral part of the vocabulary of the language of a particular writer. The relevance  of the chosen topic is due to the poorly studied issue of the mythonymicon of poetry and prose  by I. A. Bunin.   The novelty of the work is associated with the description of  the  mythological names  of Bunin the poet as  an  integral system.  The classification of  mythonyms  is  based  on five principles: the source  from  which  the name was used (there were three such sources: etiological, anthropogonic, heroic, cult and other  types of myths;  religious  and philosophical literature; multi-genre works of Slavic folklore); the nominated image of a fantastic object (eleven semantic groups are recorded: mythoanthroponyms, theonyms, demononyms, mythotonyms, mythohydronyms,   mythoornithonyms, etc.);  etymology  (otonymic, otapellative and special contextual mythological names are marked); structural type (simple or oneword  mythonyms,   complex,   represented by a bilexeme, and compound mythonyms, two-word and three-word ones are  fixed);  the presence of connotations in semantics (names with negative and positive connotative backgrounds were found).  The  author  comes to  the  conclusion  that  mythonyms  in I.A.Bunin's poetry become those stable linguistic signs that  carry  a  huge  amount  of historical and cultural information and  have a rich associative potential, accumulating the specifics of the writer's worldview, they contribute to the modeling of the text space.

Depressive disorders constitute a major health problem worldwide. From feelings of grief of daily human life to psychotic melancholic states, many different forms of depression are recognized. This fact also raises problems of classification in depressive disorders.This presentation aims to review issues of “threshold level”, “comorbidity”, “the importance of patients’ narrative”, and “identification of core symptoms” in depression.It is widely accepted that a common core shared in depression is anhedonia; thus, vitality of the person is lost. Mortality and vitality are the two key phenomena to consider in understanding depression.The reality of mortality has always been a task to overcome emotionally. Human sciences and belief systems have accumulated a huge amount of theory on this issue. But, it is a crucial inevitable challenge for every human being, and this confrontation may also lead to face some sort of depressive way of being. The degree of psychological awareness and of working through the reality of mortality may determine the odds and the forms of depressive state that a person may develop. The phenomenology of depressive disorders will also be discussed in the context of mortality vs. vitality using clinical vignettes from the authors’ clinical practice to broaden the scope of discussion.

The article analyzes the distribution of thematic subgroups (TSG) of English abbreviations within the thematic group (TG) "Names of language teaching organizations". Basing on the similar thematic classification studies of Ukrainian terminology, the authors found the lack of relevant research on English abbreviations, which, together with the need for their systematic thematic classification, allowed them to substantiate the relevance of the study, aimed to identify the said TSGs. The objectives involved the selection of the corpus, its analysis, as well as the formulation of conclusions and the prospects of further research. English terminology is a specific system based on the relevant conceptual features. It comprises a number of TGs, i.e. the sets of lexemes grouped together according to their extralinguistic properties. The criterion for defining a TG is a denotative feature reflecting the extralinguistic reality. The distribution of lexemes among the TGs is an important task of studying any terminological system. The corpus included 122 abbreviations selected from the original English-language sources. TSGs of English abbreviations within the said TG have varying degrees of complexity. The most sophisticated ones are the TSGs related to "Organizations directly involved in language teaching" (19%), "Government agencies" (14%) and some others. The proposed TSGs vary in their quantitative composition, structural type, parts of speech their full forms belong to, as well as the auxiliary words strategies. Some abbreviations are formally synonymic, though denoting different organizations. The analyzed TG includes ten TSGs, whose logic and clarity is provided for by the common conceptual features of their constituents, which are carriers of their thematic integrity. The said components are based on different term-formation models that constitute the prospect of further research.

The eye is a vital part of our body. It consists of several layers like sclera, retina, tunica, and iris. Among these several layers, Iris plays a vital role in human visionary. There are various infections which affect the Iris functioning. The sign, symptoms, and diagnosis of this is still a challenge for doctors. To overcome this many techniques and technologies have been introduced. But still, the existing system has several drawbacks in recognition like a huge amount of dataset, classification, extraction, etc. To overcome this we propose a system where Deep Neural Network plays a major part. It classifies the iris disease in our eyes in a more clear and precise manner. In additional to Deep Neural Network several other algorithms have been used like Stationary Wavelet Transform, for image selection and recognition, Local Binary Pattern, for Feature extraction and at a final stage Deep Neural Network for classification of Iris images.

There has been a huge amount of interest in perovskites recently and new structures of hybrid perovskites are frequently reported. The classification of perovskites has been unambiguous in the discussion of 3D and layered 2D perovskites due to the dimensional constraints. However, in 1D perovskites, the additional degrees of freedom have resulted in a large number of possible structural configurations. The new proposed notation aims to classify these structures based on the connectivity of the octahedra of the perovskite, which has a periodic repeating pattern. However, the notation should be restricted to simple 1D perovskites and haloplumbate structures as the notation would become too cumbersome when applied to an exotic framework which has 3D characteristics, such as perovskite polytypes.

This article discusses a selection of the most recent examples from both biblical scholarship and Jewish philosophy of the construction of the Hebrew Bible as a philosophical resource. By way of a descriptive overview of the relevant ideas in the writings of exemplars such as Davies, Hazony, Gericke, Glouberman and Sekine, the study reveals a neglected albeit radical trend in the contemporary attempted return of philosophy to Hebrew Bible interpretation and vice-versa. These new developments are labelled “philosophical maximalism”, involving as they do the classification of the entire corpus of the Hebrew Bible as philosophical literature, in one sense or another

The paper is focused on studying regularities of holophrastic constructions’ functioning in the English literary prose by means of identifying and classifying the most significant features of their linguistic characteristics and expression. Holophrastic construction is regarded in the paper as a synthetically formed composite lexical unit that combines features of a word, a word-combination, or a sentence, and which figuratively but precisely represents in communication the integrative pictures of the individuals’ thinking or behavior, fixed in their memory as a corresponding concept, for decoding of which the recipients use their communicative and cognitive experience. Having analyzed the interpretations of holophrastic constructions’ characteristic features given in various scientific sources, the authors present a generalized classification of their linguistic properties as well as provide examples of their actualization in English literary texts. The carried out analysis allowed the authors to systematize English holophrastic constructions according to the following most significant features of their linguistic expression: communicative and pragmatic aim (inducing to actions, restraining form actions, and evaluation of the communicative situation), form of expressing meaning (transparent or opaque), degree of their emotional loading (emotionally neutral, emotionally coloured, and emotionally expressive constructions), their syntactic function in the sentence (subject, predicate, object, attribute, or adverbial modifier) and their structure (three-component, four-component, five-component, and poly-component, i.e. consisting of six or more components). The performed study advances the idea that the substantiated classification can serve as a methodological tool for structuring classes, subclasses and groups of the experimental material within the scope of similar linguistic research.

This article focuses on the analysis of schoolchildren’s writing (throughout the whole primary school period) using sets of morphological labels (n-grams). We analyzed the sets of bigrams and trigrams from a group of literary texts written by Catalan schoolchildren in order to identify which bigrams and trigrams can help discriminate between texts from the three cycles into which the Spanish primary education system is divided: lower cycle (6- and 7-year-olds), middle cycle (8- and 9-year- olds) and upper cycle (10- and 11-year-olds). The results obtained are close to 70% of correct classifications (77.5% bigrams and 68.6% trigrams), making this technique useful for automatic document classification by age.
